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
There's a lot of academic pressure in Kirkham. How can a tutor help my child manage this?
A tutor does more than just teach; they act as a mentor. By creating a calm, supportive space, they can help your child break down challenging topics into manageable steps. This builds their confidence and reduces anxiety, allowing them to approach their English studies with a more positive mindset.
My child hopes to study at a university like Lancaster or Manchester. Can a tutor help with that?
Absolutely. Our tutors are experts in developing the higher-level analytical and essay-writing skills that top universities look for. They can help your child learn how to craft sophisticated arguments and articulate their ideas clearly, which is excellent preparation for A-Levels and university applications.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and read reviews from other parents. We recommend shortlisting a few tutors who have experience with your child's specific exam board and learning goals, then sending them a message to see who feels like the best fit.
What if my child doesn't click with their first English tutor?
We know that the right student-tutor relationship is key to success. 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 in Kirkham?
Our tutors set their own rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on experience and level of study. There are no hidden fees or contracts, so you have complete flexibility.
How do I know the tutors are qualified and safe?
Your child's safety is our top priority. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor undergoes a rigorous vetting process, including identity and background checks, to ensure they are highly qualified and safe to work with children.
How do online lessons actually work?
Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It’s a simple and effective way for your child to learn directly from their tutor, no matter where you are.
My child lacks confidence in English. Can tutoring help with that?
Yes, building confidence is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. In a private setting, your child can ask questions without feeling self-conscious. Celebrating small wins and mastering difficult topics with their tutor's guidance can transform how they feel about the subject.
How long are the tutoring sessions?
The standard session length is one hour, which most parents and students find works perfectly. However, you can discuss different session lengths directly with your chosen tutor to find what best suits your child's concentration and your family's schedule.
Do you offer tutoring for subjects other than English, or for hobbies like learning the guitar?
We do! We have expert tutors across more than 300 subjects. Whether your child needs help with Maths and Science, wants to learn a new language, or is keen to pick up a musical instrument, you can find a brilliant tutor on our platform.
How quickly can my child see an improvement in their results?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our tailored approach is designed for real progress. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. The focus on your child's specific needs helps them grasp concepts faster and build confidence from the very first session.
Why should I choose Tutorful?
Parents trust us to help their children succeed, which is why we have a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 reviews. We combine expert, vetted tutors with a flexible and secure online platform to provide personalised support that truly makes a difference to your child's learning and confidence.
