John has been an excellent English IGCSE tutor. He is very organised, enthusiastic and communicates clearly. He quickly built a strong rapport with my daughter, putting her at ease, and she is really enjoying the lessons and getting a lot out of them. John is helping her to build confidence, structure exam answers and prepare effectively for revision, and I feel the tutoring will be very beneficial in the run-up to her exams.

Ben D
Ben has been a great tutor for my 16 year old doing his English GCSEs. Ben's tuition has improved my son's grade from a 4 up to between a 5-8, depending on the topic, in just a few months. He has also hugely improved his confidence, and his writing ability in other subjects such as History has improved as well. Ben has a relaxed, respectful and friendly approach that my son has really gotten on with, and he is enjoying feeling more confident for his English Language and Literature exams this year. I highly recommend Ben for your child's tuition.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is preparing for the 11+ for schools like Queen Mary's or Bishop Vesey's. Can I find a specialist tutor?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors have specific experience in preparing children for the 11+ and other grammar school entrance exams. You can check their profiles for details on their expertise and even message them beforehand to discuss your child's specific needs for these competitive tests.
We're worried about GCSE English grades for getting into a good sixth form. How can a tutor help?
This is a common concern, and our tutors can provide targeted support. They can help your child master the curriculum, from analysing 'Macbeth' to perfecting exam technique. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade, and we can help boost GCSE results by up to two grades.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's all about finding the right fit. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check each tutor's qualifications and experience on their profile. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's goals before booking to ensure you find someone you feel confident in.
How much does an online English tutor in Aldridge cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates based on their experience, typically ranging from £15 to £35 per hour. You can filter tutors by price to find an expert who fits your budget, with no hidden fees or contracts.
How do I know the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked, and we personally interview each one. We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the very best.
What happens in a typical online lesson?
Lessons take place in our interactive online classroom. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard for things like marking up texts or planning essays, and a space to share documents. It's a secure and engaging environment designed specifically for one-to-one learning.
My child has lost their confidence in English. Can a tutor help with that?
Absolutely. One of the greatest benefits of tutoring is building confidence. A tutor provides a supportive, patient space where your child can work at their own pace without fear of judgement. Celebrating small wins and overcoming challenges together can make a huge difference to their self-belief.
What is the First Lesson Guarantee?
We want you to be completely happy with your choice of tutor. The First Lesson Guarantee means that if you don't get on with your first tutor 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 many lessons will my child need?
This really depends on your child's individual goals. Some students need a few sessions to prepare for a specific exam, while others benefit from regular weekly support throughout the school year. You can discuss this directly with your chosen tutor.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
Not at all! While we have experts in core subjects from primary school through to university, we also offer tuition in a wide range of skills. So, if your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get into coding, or speak a new language, we can help with that too.
Can tutoring fit around our busy family schedule?
Yes. That's one of the main benefits of online tutoring. You can find tutors who offer lessons in the evenings or at weekends, fitting learning around school, hobbies, and family commitments without any travel time.
How can I track my child's progress?
Your tutor will provide regular feedback on how your child is doing. You can also message them at any time through the platform to ask questions or discuss their progress. It’s a partnership between you, your child, and the tutor.
