Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is aiming for Brampton Manor Academy. Can a tutor help them achieve the top GCSE English grades needed?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students aim for top grades (7-9) needed for competitive sixth forms. They can focus on developing the specific analytical skills and exam techniques required to help your child stand out and meet those high entry requirements.
We live in Beckton and are worried about the competition for sixth form places. How can tutoring give my child an edge?
We understand your concern. One-to-one tutoring gives your child an advantage by providing focused support that isn't possible in a busy classroom. A tutor can identify and strengthen specific areas of weakness, build confidence, and perfect exam strategy, giving your child the best possible chance to secure their place.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. 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 do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can easily browse tutors, read their profiles, and check reviews from other parents. Many tutors offer a short introductory chat before you book, so you can make sure their teaching style is a good match for your child's personality and learning needs.
How can a tutor help my child with exam technique for GCSE English?
Our tutors are brilliant at this. They can work through past papers, teach your child how to manage their time effectively in an exam, understand what examiners are looking for, and structure their answers to gain the maximum number of marks.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed a background check. We are also very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, with prices typically starting from around £20 per hour. You can filter by price to find an experienced, high-quality tutor who fits your family's budget.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
How can tutoring help my child feel more confident?
Confidence is key. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might be shy about in class. As they start to master topics they once found difficult, you'll see their self-belief grow, which has a positive impact on all their subjects.
How quickly will we see an improvement in my child's English grades?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our personalised approach gets results. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one whole grade. The consistent, targeted support makes a real difference.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something different?
While we cover all academic subjects from the 11+ to degree level, we also have amazing tutors for hobbies and skills. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or learn a new language, we can help them explore their passions.
What happens in a typical one-hour English lesson?
Every lesson is tailored to your child. It might start with a quick review of the previous session, then move on to a specific topic like analysing a poem, working on essay structure, or practising grammar. The focus is always on your child's goals and filling any gaps in their understanding.
