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.

Brilliant English tutors who you’ll really click with.
Our experienced tutors take the time to understand where each student needs to focus and their preferred way of learning. They make a measurable difference – 90% of all students improve by at least one grade.
My child wants to apply to the sixth form at Rushden Academy. Can a tutor help them secure the English grade they need?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are very experienced in helping students aim for specific grades needed for entry into competitive sixth forms like Rushden Academy or The Ferrers School. They can focus on the specific skills and exam techniques required to help your child feel confident and prepared to achieve that crucial Grade 5 or higher.
Are your tutors familiar with the A-Level entry requirements for schools in the Rushden area?
While our tutors are based across the UK, many have extensive experience with the GCSE curriculum and the general grade requirements for progression to A-Levels. The best approach is to find a few tutors you like and message them directly to discuss your child's goals and the requirements for local schools.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's all about finding the right fit. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check each tutor's qualifications on their profile. We recommend shortlisting a few and sending them a message to explain what your child needs help with. This gives you a feel for their approach before you book.
How much does online English tutoring cost?
Our tutors set their own prices, so rates vary based on their experience and qualifications. You can easily filter tutors by price to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or long-term contracts to worry about.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right student-tutor relationship is key to 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 does online tutoring work?
It’s simple and effective. All lessons take place in our 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 with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection.
Can a tutor help my child build confidence, not just their grades?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. When a child feels understood and supported, their confidence naturally grows. Our tutors are brilliant at creating a positive learning space where your child feels safe to ask questions and make mistakes, which is how they truly learn and thrive.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, the safety of our students is our top priority. We interview every tutor and all tutors must have a valid DBS check before they can teach on our platform. We are very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply to join us.
How long does it take to see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but consistency is key. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence after just a few sessions. With regular lessons, your child can make significant progress towards their academic goals. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.
Is tutoring just for academic subjects like English, or can you help with other skills?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we cover all core academic subjects for exams like the 11+, GCSEs, and A-Levels, we also have tutors for music, languages, and practical skills like coding or public speaking. It's all about helping your child pursue their passions.
What happens in a typical English tutoring session?
Every session is tailored to your child. A tutor might spend time going over a specific school text, working on essay-writing techniques, practising exam questions, or simply talking through ideas to build your child's analytical skills. You can discuss your child's specific needs with the tutor beforehand.
How do I book and pay for lessons?
Once you've found a tutor you like, you can book a first session directly from their profile. All payments are handled securely through the website, so you never have to worry about cash or bank transfers. It's simple, safe, and easy to manage.
