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!

Michelle P
Wonderful English Tutor!
Michelle has been an incredible English tutor for our daughter Sarah. She always starts each session with a fun “mind boggle,” which Sarah absolutely loves — it sets such a positive and energising tone for the lesson. From the moment she enters the class, Michelle makes Sarah smile.
Her lessons are interesting, engaging, and thoughtfully planned. Michelle brings a fantastic mix of humour, enthusiasm, and kindness to every session, and it truly shows in Sarah’s enjoyment and progress. She has a wonderful teaching style that keeps Sarah motivated and excited to learn.
We are so grateful for Michelle’s support and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an English tutor who can make learning both effective and fun.
Thank you Michelle.

asked questions
See all FAQs
Can I find an English tutor who specialises in the Bexley 11+ exam?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our English tutors have specific experience helping children prepare for the 11+ entrance exams, including the Bexley test. You can read about their expertise on their profiles and send them a message before booking to discuss your child's specific needs.
We're worried about the competition for places at local Woolwich secondary schools. Can a tutor help?
Yes. A tutor can help build the core English skills and confidence your child needs to perform at their best. By strengthening their reading comprehension, writing skills, and vocabulary, they will be better prepared for entrance assessments and ready to thrive in a competitive secondary school environment.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
The best way is to watch their introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check their qualifications and experience. You can also send a message to a few tutors to ask how they would approach helping your child with their specific goals before you book a lesson.
What happens if we don't click with the 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, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How much does an online 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, allowing you to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or complicated contracts.
How do online lessons actually work?
Our lessons take place in a purpose-built online classroom. It features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents and resources. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection.
Are your tutors' backgrounds checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors are background-checked and we interview every single one to ensure they are the best of the best. We only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply to join us.
How can a tutor specifically help with reading comprehension?
A tutor can use targeted exercises and texts to help your child identify main ideas, understand context, and analyse language. They can work at your child's pace, patiently explaining difficult concepts and building their confidence in tackling complex passages.
How often should my child have lessons?
Most families find that one lesson a week is a great starting point for consistent progress. However, the frequency is completely up to you and can be discussed with your tutor. You might choose more frequent sessions in the run-up to an important exam.
What results can we expect from English tuition?
Our goal is to help your child feel more confident and capable. While every child's journey is different, we're proud that 90% of our students improve by at least one academic grade. For GCSE students, this can often mean an improvement of up to two grades.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
While we have thousands of expert academic tutors, we also offer support in a huge range of other areas. Whether your child wants to learn to code, play the guitar, master public speaking, or develop their creative writing, you can find a brilliant tutor to help.
How can tutoring help my child feel more confident in school?
One-to-one lessons provide a safe space for your child to ask questions they might be too shy to ask in a busy classroom. As they start to understand difficult topics and see their skills improve, their self-belief often grows, which has a positive impact on their whole school experience.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
