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!

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.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is aiming for a competitive school in Guildford like RGS or George Abbot. Can a tutor help with the English entrance exams?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in entrance exam preparation. They can help your child build the specific comprehension, essay writing, and verbal reasoning skills needed for these demanding tests, giving them a calm and confident approach on the day.
We're worried about getting the top GCSE English grades needed for prestigious sixth forms. How can a tutor help with this?
Our tutors are experts in the GCSE curriculum and know what examiners are looking for. They can help your child break down complex texts, refine their essay technique, and target weak spots to turn a good grade into a great one. We've seen one-to-one tutoring help students improve their GCSE results by up to two grades.
What if my child doesn't click with their first English tutor?
It's really important that your child feels comfortable with their tutor. That's why we have a 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 watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message tutors for free before booking. Think about your child's specific needs – do they need help with creative writing or exam technique? You can filter tutors by their experience to find the perfect match.
Are your tutors qualified and safe to work with my child?
Yes. Your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every tutor and only accept 1 in 8 who apply. All tutors must have a valid DBS check or be registered with the update service before they can teach on our platform.
How much does an online English tutor in West Clandon cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, so prices vary depending on their experience and qualifications. You can easily see each tutor's price on their profile, helping you find brilliant, affordable support that fits your budget.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a tool for sharing documents. It’s a secure and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of home.
Can a tutor help if my child has lost their confidence in English?
Definitely. One of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring is the confidence boost it provides. A great tutor creates a safe space where your child can ask questions without fear of being judged, helping them rediscover their enjoyment for the subject.
Can tutoring help with specific texts, like Shakespeare or poetry anthologies?
Yes. Our tutors can provide focused support on any part of the English curriculum. Whether it's getting to grips with 'An Inspector Calls' or analysing unseen poetry, they can provide the dedicated time your child needs to truly understand it.
How long will it take to see an improvement in my child's English grades?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our data shows that 90% of students improve by at least one grade. Consistent weekly lessons are often the key to building momentum and seeing steady, confident progress.
What happens in a typical one-hour English lesson?
The tutor will tailor the lesson to your child's goals. It might start with a quick review of the last session, then move on to a new topic, like practising a specific type of essay question or analysing a piece of text together on the interactive whiteboard. It's always focused and collaborative.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child also learn skills like public speaking or creative writing?
We offer a huge range of subjects and skills beyond the school curriculum. Many of our English tutors are also fantastic at mentoring students in skills like public speaking, creative writing, and debating, helping them build confidence for life.
