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
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's a really personal choice. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check each tutor's experience on their profile. We recommend messaging a few to find someone your child will get on well with. The first lesson is a great way to make sure it's the right fit.
My child is preparing for grammar school entrance exams. Can a tutor in Amersham help with this?
Absolutely. Many of our English tutors have specific experience helping children prepare for the 11+ and entrance exams for local grammar schools like Dr Challoner's. You can use our filters to find tutors who specialise in exam preparation and even mention specific schools in your search.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own rates, so you can easily browse profiles to find an expert who fits your family's budget. The price you see on their profile is the price you pay, with no hidden fees.
How are your tutors vetted?
Your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every tutor and they all undergo a thorough background check. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can feel completely confident that you're choosing from the very best tutors in the UK.
What is your 'First Lesson Guarantee'?
We want you to be 100% happy with your choice of tutor. If for any reason you don't get on with your first tutor, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How can tutoring help if my child just lacks confidence in English?
Confidence is key! A one-to-one tutor provides a safe, encouraging space for your child to ask questions they might not feel comfortable asking in a busy classroom. Celebrating small wins and breaking down tricky topics can make a huge difference to how they feel about the subject.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or guitar?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects, not just core academic ones. So whether your child wants to learn Python, master the guitar, or even pick up a new language, you can find an expert tutor to help them pursue their passion.
How does the online classroom work?
Our online classroom is designed to be simple and effective. It has an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and a function for sharing documents. It’s a great way for your child to learn from the comfort of your own home, without the need for any travel.
We live near Amersham. Can a tutor help with applying to local colleges?
Yes, many tutors have experience with personal statements and applications for further education. You can find tutors who specialise in helping students prepare for the next step, whether that's a local college or applying to university through UCAS.
How long are the lessons and how often should my child have them?
Lessons are typically one hour long. Most families find that one session a week is a great way to build momentum and see real progress, but the frequency is completely up to you and can be arranged directly with your tutor.
What happens in the first lesson?
The first lesson is all about getting to know each other. The tutor will chat with your child about what they enjoy, what they find difficult in English, and what they'd like to achieve. It's a relaxed session designed to build a good relationship from the start.
What if we need to cancel or reschedule a lesson?
We know that life can be busy. You can easily manage your schedule through the platform. Just be sure to give your tutor at least 24 hours' notice if you need to make a change to an upcoming lesson to avoid being charged.
