Jessica C
Jessica is so incredibly patient with my son. She breaks down lessons as small as possible in order for my son to understand her easily. Though my son is always very distracted, Jessica is able to work around it and consistently quiz him in order for him to remember and retain information. She is a hard worker and incredibly skilled. She’s a wonderful tutor! I really recommend her.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child has their heart set on Peter Symonds College. Can a tutor help them meet the high GCSE English entry requirements?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in helping students secure the top GCSE grades (7-9) needed for competitive sixth forms. They can focus on exam technique, essay writing, and textual analysis to help your child's application stand out.
We're aiming for a top university like Southampton or Winchester. How does GCSE English tutoring help with that?
A high grade in GCSE English is a foundational requirement for many competitive university courses. It demonstrates the strong communication and analytical skills needed for degree-level study. A tutor helps build this foundation early, setting your child up for success through A-Levels and beyond.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can read tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few to discuss your child's specific goals. Finding someone your child connects with is key to building their confidence.
What if my child doesn't click with their first English tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect fit, which is 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 online English tutoring cost in Andover?
Our tutors set their own prices based on their experience, typically ranging from £25 to £50 per hour. There are no hidden fees or contracts, so you can find expert help that fits your budget.
How does online tutoring work?
It's simple! All you need is a laptop or tablet with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Lessons take place in our interactive online classroom, which includes a whiteboard, video chat, and document sharing features.
Are your tutors qualified to teach GCSE English?
Yes. All our tutors are background-checked, and many are qualified teachers, examiners, or subject matter experts with degrees in English. You can see their specific qualifications and experience on their profiles.
Can a tutor help with a specific part of the English curriculum, like 'An Inspector Calls'?
Definitely. The great thing about one-to-one tutoring is that lessons can be tailored to exactly what your child needs. Whether it's analysing characters in a set text or mastering poetic techniques, their tutor can create a plan to target those areas.
How can tutoring help my child feel more confident?
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. As their tutor helps them grasp difficult topics, you'll likely see their self-belief and class participation grow.
How long will it take to see an improvement in my child's grades?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our data shows that 90% of students improve by at least one grade with regular lessons. Consistency is key, and your tutor will work with you to track progress towards your child's goals.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
Not at all! While we support core subjects from the 11+ to degree level, we also have amazing tutors for music, languages, coding, and professional skills. It's a great way for your child to explore a new hobby or passion.
How do I pay for lessons?
Payments are handled securely and easily through the platform. You add your card details to your account, and you are only charged 24 hours after each completed lesson. There's no need to handle cash or make direct bank transfers.
