Matthew B
Matthew has been teaching my son since September and he absolutely enjoys the lessons. He explains writing in a way my son can understand, and we’ve already seen a boost in his confidence.

Holly E
Holly has been tutoring my son in English GCSE for the last half term. He has found the lessons very useful, working in a logical order through the different aspects of the curriculum. Holly is friendly, approachable and encouraging.
My Son has just had his mock exam results and has moved from just hitting an exam grade boundary to being 2 points off the next grade up. We are very pleased at his progress in a short space of time.

Mamun A
My son is really improving since starting lessons with Mamun. From the start of the lesson getting almost all questions wrong to by the end completely understanding it all. Tested him a few days later and he got almost every question right without any help at all he remembered all the punctuation in all questions, shocked how much he's improved from just one lesson on it! Mamun's teaching is brilliant and it really seems to stick in my sons head. Also my son is very fussy with his ASD/ADHD and is often open about his feelings towards people, especially new people most often than not he will say he doesn't like this person because of this or that, but he said he likes his tutor and wants to do more lessons which is brilliant. Mamun is always on time, very patient and explains thoroughly, he gives brilliant feedback afterwards too. Highly recommend this tutor and I'm glad I chose him rather than someone else.

Nadiah K
Nadiah is an AMAZING English tutor.
Nadiah is very reliable, organised and efficient, prompting and guiding my son to keep on track outside of sessions aswell. I have had feedback from school after just a few months that the quality of my sons writing has improved significantly and teachers have asked if he has been doing anything different.
My son is also developing more of an interest in the subject which has been really nice to see.

Jeremy B
After the first lesson my son announced “That was amazing Mum, you need to watch the video, he was SUCH a good teacher”. This couldn’t have been more different to previous feedback on our attempts to find an English tutor. I’m delighted that Jeremy is structured in his lessons, but also his tone is very friendly and fun! My 12 year old son has Tourettes and ADHD, and has been quite unwell. It’s also done wonders for my mental health knowing Jeremy is guiding my son through English, after seeing the videos I do not have this skill! 100% recommend him!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child hopes to apply to Colchester Sixth Form College. Can a tutor help them prepare?
Absolutely. Many of our English tutors have experience helping students secure places at competitive colleges. They can focus on the specific essay writing and analytical skills needed to achieve the high GCSE grades required for entry, giving your child the best possible chance.
We're in Walton-on-the-Naze. Are the tutors local?
Our tutors are online, which means your child can connect with the very best English specialists from anywhere in the UK, not just those limited to the Walton-on-the-Naze area. This gives you a much wider choice of experts who can match your child's specific needs and learning style.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. That's why we have our first lesson guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and read reviews from other parents. Many tutors offer a free 15-minute chat so you can discuss your child's needs and see if it's a good fit before booking a lesson.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and must pass a rigorous interview process. We only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident your child is learning from the best.
How can a tutor help my child with exam stress?
A tutor can be a huge help with exam anxiety. By breaking down topics, practising past papers, and building a clear revision plan, they help your child feel prepared and in control. This boost in confidence can make a real difference to their wellbeing and performance.
Can tutoring help my child if they're already doing well but want to aim higher?
Definitely. Tutoring isn't just for catching up; it's also for getting ahead. A great tutor can challenge a high-achieving student, introduce them to more advanced concepts, and help them turn a good grade into a top one, which is vital for competitive A-Level or university applications.
How much does an English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or long-term contracts.
How do online lessons work?
Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It's a secure and engaging way for your child to learn from the comfort of home.
What happens in the first lesson?
The first lesson is usually about getting to know your child. The tutor will chat with them about their strengths, weaknesses, and what they want to achieve in English. It's a great opportunity to build a rapport and create a learning plan tailored just for them.
How long does a typical tutoring session last?
Most lessons are an hour long, which gives enough time to cover a topic in depth without being overwhelming. However, you can discuss different lesson lengths with your chosen tutor to find what works best for your child.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
While we're experts in core subjects, we also have tutors for a wide range of skills and hobbies. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or even learn a new language, we have specialist tutors who can help them explore their interests.
