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 is aiming for a place at The College Blaenau Gwent. Can a tutor help them secure the English grade they need?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experts in the GCSE curriculum and know exactly what's needed to secure a strong pass. They can work with your child on specific exam techniques and content to build their skills and confidence, helping them get the grades required for their chosen course.
We're more focused on local apprenticeships and jobs. How does English tutoring help with that?
That's a great goal. Strong communication skills are vital for the workplace. A tutor can help your child not only with their English Language qualification but also with practical skills like writing a compelling CV, structuring a cover letter, and preparing for interviews, giving them a real advantage in the job market.
What if my child and their tutor don't click?
We know how important the right fit is. That’s why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you feel the first tutor isn't the right match for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.
How do I choose the best English tutor for my child?
You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. You can also message tutors before booking to discuss your child's specific needs and goals, ensuring you find the perfect person to support them.
How much does online English tutoring cost in Abertillery?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, with no hidden costs or subscriptions. This transparency allows you to find an expert tutor that fits your family's budget.
How do the online lessons actually work?
It's simple! All lessons happen in our online classroom, which has a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection. It's a secure and effective way to learn from home.
Are your tutors properly vetted?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and has their ID verified. We also interview them to ensure they have the right experience and passion for teaching. We're very selective – we only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply to join us.
My child's confidence in English is very low. Can a tutor help with that?
This is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. In a supportive, patient environment, your child can ask questions they might be too shy to ask in class. Tutors are brilliant at celebrating small wins and building a child’s self-belief, which often has a positive impact on their schoolwork overall.
How long will it be before we see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our data shows that 90% of students improve by at least one grade with regular lessons. The key is consistency. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child’s confidence and engagement after just a few sessions.
Do you offer tutoring for subjects other than English?
We do! We have expert tutors across more than 300 subjects. So whether your child needs help with Maths or Science, wants to learn a new language, or is interested in practical skills like coding or playing the guitar, we can help you find the right tutor.
My child has specific learning needs. Can you accommodate them?
Yes. Many of our tutors have experience working with students with specific learning needs, such as dyslexia or ADHD. You can use our search filters to find tutors with this experience and message them directly to discuss how they can best support your child's individual learning style.
How do I pay for lessons?
Paying is simple and secure. You add your payment details to your account, and we only charge you after each lesson is completed. There are no sign-up fees or contracts, so you have complete flexibility and control.
