The Right English Support for Your Child in Addlestone

Your child is unique, and their learning support should be too. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the very best. A great tutor takes the time to understand how your child learns, what they find tricky, and what makes them tick. This personal connection is where the real learning begins. Instead of a one-size-fits-all approach, every lesson is planned around your child's specific goals. If they need to focus on poetry analysis for their Literature exam or grammar for their Language paper, that’s what the session will be about. It's this tailored support that helps 90% of our students improve by at least one grade, with GCSE results often improving by up to two grades. With our online classroom, you can find the perfect, background-checked tutor without worrying about travel. Lessons can be scheduled whenever suits your family, fitting easily around school, clubs, and life in Addlestone. It’s simple, secure, and trusted by over 200,000 happy students.

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child wants to apply to a sixth form like Salesian or Fullbrook. Can a tutor help them secure the necessary English grades?

Yes, absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in helping students meet specific entry requirements. They can focus on the exact areas of the GCSE English curriculum your child needs to strengthen to secure the grades needed for their desired A-Level courses at local sixth forms.

We're hoping for a place at a local university like Royal Holloway. How can English tutoring support this long-term goal?

Strong GCSE and A-Level English grades are often a prerequisite for top universities. A tutor helps build the foundational skills in analysis, essay writing, and critical thinking that are essential for university-level study, giving your child a significant advantage in their application and future academic career.

How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?

It's easy to find the perfect match. You can filter tutors by subject, level, and price. Watch their introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and send a message to a few to find the one who best fits your child's personality and learning style.

What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

We know that the right fit is important. 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 in Addlestone cost?

Our tutors set their own rates, which typically start from £15 per hour. You can use the search filters to find an experienced, high-quality tutor who fits your family's budget.

How does online tutoring actually work?

All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing tools, making it easy for your child to learn and collaborate with their tutor from the comfort of your home.

Are your tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors has passed an enhanced DBS check. We also interview every applicant and only accept 1 in every 8 who apply, so you can be completely confident in their quality.

How can a tutor help my child feel more confident in English?

Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might not ask in class. A tutor can break down difficult topics, celebrate small wins, and show them they are capable of succeeding.

How quickly will we see an improvement in my child's grades?

Every child learns at their own pace, but our approach gets results. With consistent, tailored support, students quickly build confidence and understanding. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.

Can a tutor help with specific GCSE texts, like Shakespeare or poetry?

Definitely. Many of our English tutors are specialists in the GCSE curriculum and can provide expert guidance on specific set texts, whether it's understanding the themes in 'An Inspector Calls' or analysing the language in a poetry anthology.

What's the difference between GCSE English Language and Literature?

English Language focuses on analysing unseen fiction and non-fiction texts and developing writing skills. English Literature is the study of specific set texts like novels, plays, and poems. Our tutors can provide expert support for both.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or can you help with skills like public speaking?

While we cover all academic subjects, we also have tutors who can help your child develop other valuable skills. This includes everything from public speaking and creative writing to learning a musical instrument or coding.
