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

Lee N
I would highly recommend Lee. He has supported my son in increasing his understanding of GCSE poetry, personalising each lesson to meet his needs and gives timely feedback after each lesson. My son is making great progress and I have seen increased confidence since he has started.

Anita S
Anita really helps me with English - especially by going through the mark scheme in greater detail than in class, which is really useful when it comes to improving my essays. She also has helped with improving my analysis, providing me with stronger context and helping me add depth to it. I really recommend her as she is great!

Cerise S
Cerise has been such a lovely and supportive English tutor for Eisa. She really helped him find structure and confidence in his lessons and I could see the difference in how he approached his reading and writing. She always came well prepared with materials and gave clear guidance on what to work on..for example, getting him to read A Christmas Carol and pick out key quotes and themes to discuss together.
Eisa really enjoyed her lessons and found her teaching style easy to follow. She’s been patient, encouraging and genuinely invested in his progress. We’ve really appreciated all her help!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child hopes to study at Queen's University Belfast or Ulster University. Can a tutor help?
Absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in A-Level support and have extensive experience helping students prepare for university. They can help your child master their texts, refine their essay technique, and even offer guidance on writing a strong personal statement that stands out.
We're worried about the GCSE English grades needed for local Sixth Form places. Can a tutor help?
Yes, this is one of the most common reasons parents come to us. Our tutors are experts in the GCSE curriculum and can provide targeted support to close any knowledge gaps. In fact, our focused approach can help improve a child's GCSE results by up to 2 grades, giving them the best possible chance of securing their Sixth Form place.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
We make it easy. You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos to get a feel for their teaching style, and check verified reviews from other parents. You can also message tutors before booking to discuss your child's needs and ensure it's a great match.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
Can a tutor help if my child has lost confidence in English?
Definitely. A one-to-one setting is a safe space for your child to ask questions without fear of getting it wrong. Our tutors are brilliant at building confidence by breaking down tricky topics, celebrating small wins, and tailoring their approach to your child's pace.
How much does an English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, starting from £15 per hour, based on their experience and qualifications. You can easily filter by price on our search page to find a brilliant tutor who fits your family's budget.
How do I know the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and must pass a rigorous application process. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the very best.
How do online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson. It includes a live video chat, an interactive whiteboard for working through problems together, and a way to share documents like essays or past papers. It's simple, secure, and designed for learning.
Is online tutoring as effective as in-person?
Many parents find it's even more effective. Online tutoring gives you access to a much wider choice of specialist tutors from across the UK, not just your local area. Plus, the interactive tools and the ability to learn from the comfort of home can really help your child focus and engage.
How often should my child have lessons?
This is completely flexible and depends on your child's goals. Most students have one lesson per week, but you can arrange more frequent sessions during busy exam periods. It's something you can discuss and agree upon directly with your chosen tutor.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
While we have fantastic tutors for all core academic subjects, we also offer support in a wide range of other areas. Whether your child wants to learn a musical instrument like the guitar, pick up coding skills, or try a new language, you can find a brilliant tutor on Tutorful.
How quickly can we get started?
You can get started today! Simply search for a tutor, send them a message to check their availability, and book your first lesson. Many tutors can start within a few days, so your child can get the support they need right away.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
If things aren’t right with your first lesson just let us know. We’ll pay for
your next lesson with a new tutor – and even help you find them.
