Opening Doors with a Top Grade in English
English isn't just about analysing Shakespearean quotes or mastering grammar; it's the foundation for success in so many areas. A top grade in English A-Level is highly respected by Russell Group universities for humanities courses because it shows your child can think critically, build a compelling argument, and communicate with clarity. These are skills that will not only help them thrive in their degree but also open up countless career paths long after they've left university.

Carole G
Professional English tutor
Hi, my name is Carole. I worked as a primary school teacher for 19 years and I have been tutoring children from reception to year 8, mainly online, since February 2020. I have worked with many children, helping them to achieve success in SATs, school entrance exams or to gain increased confidence and enjoyment of their subjects in school. I had some recent feedback from a parent, stating that their child had "gone from being scared of maths (and trying to hide it by saying maths is boring) to loving it!" Some of my current students have worked with me for several years, continuing after primary...

Holly E
Holly has been tutoring my son in English GCSE for the last half term. He has found the lessons very useful, working in a logical order through the different aspects of the curriculum. Holly is friendly, approachable and encouraging.
My Son has just had his mock exam results and has moved from just hitting an exam grade boundary to being 2 points off the next grade up. We are very pleased at his progress in a short space of time.

Mamun A
My son is really improving since starting lessons with Mamun. From the start of the lesson getting almost all questions wrong to by the end completely understanding it all. Tested him a few days later and he got almost every question right without any help at all he remembered all the punctuation in all questions, shocked how much he's improved from just one lesson on it! Mamun's teaching is brilliant and it really seems to stick in my sons head. Also my son is very fussy with his ASD/ADHD and is often open about his feelings towards people, especially new people most often than not he will say he doesn't like this person because of this or that, but he said he likes his tutor and wants to do more lessons which is brilliant. Mamun is always on time, very patient and explains thoroughly, he gives brilliant feedback afterwards too. Highly recommend this tutor and I'm glad I chose him rather than someone else.

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.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child hopes to apply to a competitive course at Cardiff or Bristol. Can a tutor help with this?
Absolutely. Many of our English tutors have experience helping students with their applications to Russell Group universities. They can help your child hone their analytical and essay-writing skills to achieve the A or A* grades needed, and some can even offer guidance on personal statements to make their application stand out.
We're in Abergavenny. Does my child have to be tutored by someone local?
Not at all! The great thing about online tutoring is that you have access to the best tutors from all over the UK, not just those nearby. This gives you a much wider choice of specialists who can perfectly match your child's needs and learning style, right from the comfort of your home.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right relationship is key to success. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the perfect match for your child, just 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 check each tutor's qualifications and experience on their profile. You can also message tutors before booking to discuss your child's specific needs and make sure it's a good fit.
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, so you can find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
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. It's a secure and engaging space designed specifically for one-to-one learning.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All of our tutors undergo a background check, and we verify their ID and qualifications. We're very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident in English?
Confidence often comes from understanding. By working one-to-one, a tutor can patiently explain difficult concepts and celebrate small wins. This personalised support in a non-judgemental space helps your child feel more capable and prepared for class and exams.
Do you only offer help with school subjects like English?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects, we also offer support in a wide range of other areas. Whether your child wants to learn a musical instrument like the guitar, get into coding with Python, or even learn a new language, you can find an expert tutor on our platform.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most students have one lesson a week, but it's completely flexible. You can arrange sessions with your tutor based on your child's needs – whether that's regular weekly support or a few extra lessons leading up to an important exam.
Can tutoring help with specific parts of the English curriculum, like GCSE poetry?
Yes, definitely. Tutors can create lessons focused on exactly what your child needs help with. Whether it's analysing unseen poetry for GCSEs or structuring A-Level coursework, the support is completely tailored to their curriculum. For GCSEs, we can even help improve results by up to two grades.
How do I pay for lessons?
Payments are simple and secure. You add your card details to your account, and we process the payment automatically 24 hours after each lesson is complete. You'll never need to handle cash or make direct bank transfers.
