Josh L
Josh has been tutoring my son for several weeks now. When asking my son what he thought of the sessions she shared that the lessons were varied and he makes it interesting and fun, ( My Son is in year 10 - age 14) We were looking for a tutor to help my son with his English as he had a difficult year last year with his teacher and it became a dread and a stress. Having Josh tutoring him has given him more confidence in the subject. He is keen to have the lesson and always comes down afterwards and shares something good about it. He seems to be progressing well at school and I know these sessions can only be helping with that.

Grace B
My daughter worked with Grace as she wanted to re-take her English Language GCSE to improve her grade. My daughter thought Grace was a fantastic teacher. After her first lesson she said she had learnt more in an hour with her than she had in her previous two years at school! She has a lovely friendly manner and put my daughter at ease straight away. She also puts a lot into the lessons through preparation, marking and generally guiding the learning where it's needed most. As an examiner herself she also has a clear understanding of what students need to work on to succeed. Couldn't recommend her highly enough and whether or not my daughter does improve her grade, I know that the lessons were worthwhile. Thank you Grace!

John M
John has been nothing short of a miracle worker with our Year 9 son. In a matter of a few lessons his confidence in English has really grown. He was previously really disengaged with English & it was a real effort to get him to spend any amount of time on it. Now with John’s encouragement, he actually shows me his English homework & wants to improve, work at it. Highly recommend

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child wants to apply to Suffolk One. Can a tutor help them secure the right English GCSE grade?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experts in the GCSE curriculum and know exactly what's needed to hit those higher grades. They can work with your child on specific areas of weakness to build their skills and confidence ahead of their exams, giving them the best possible chance of meeting the entry requirements for competitive sixth forms.
We're concerned about the step up from Kesgrave High School to A-Levels. Can a tutor help?
Yes, this is a common concern and a great time to get support. A tutor can help your child master the more advanced skills needed for A-Level English, such as deeper critical analysis and independent thinking. This can make the transition much smoother and less stressful for them.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs before booking your first session to ensure it's a great match.
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. There are no hidden fees or long-term contracts, so you have complete flexibility.
How do online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a stable internet connection, a webcam, and a microphone.
What if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect fit. 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.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All of our tutors have been interviewed and have had their ID and qualifications verified. They also undergo a background check before they can start tutoring on our platform.
How can tutoring help my child build confidence?
One-to-one tutoring provides a safe and supportive environment where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. As they start to master topics they once found tricky, you'll see their self-belief and enthusiasm for the subject grow.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Our tutors provide regular feedback on your child's progress. You can also message your tutor at any time to ask questions or discuss their development. Many parents tell us they see a positive change in their child's confidence and attitude towards their studies after just a few sessions.
How long should a lesson be?
Most lessons are an hour long, which is usually enough time to dive into a topic without your child losing focus. However, you can discuss lesson length with your tutor to find what works best for your child.
Do you offer tutoring for skills other than school subjects?
Yes, we do! While we have experts across the school curriculum, you can also find tutors for a wide range of other skills, including learning a musical instrument like the guitar, coding languages like Python, or even creative writing.
What if we need to cancel or reschedule a lesson?
Life happens, we get it. You can easily cancel or reschedule a lesson through the platform. We just ask that you give your tutor at least 24 hours' notice, as per our cancellation policy.
