David J
Experienced English Tutor
When it comes to History, I have always loved the subject, leading me to secure my place at the University of Leeds and to follow through my degree and gain a 2:1. While doing so, I had a fantastic time living in Leeds, which is why I came back to live here. My focus was on the British Empire, but having studied History all the way through school and university, my experience with the subject is very broad. For example I studied Britain from 1880-1980 and Nazi Germany at A Level, and American foreign policy and race relations and the Russian Revolution at GCSE. History is one of the most important...

Over the past few months, Megan has been an incredible support for my son during what has been a very challenging period for him. Her patience and encouragement has made a huge difference not only to his English and maths skills but also to his confidence and attitude towards learning.
Megan has adapted each lesson to his needs, finding creative ways to help him stay engaged. It’s clear she puts a tremendous amount of thought and effort into her teaching.
I am truly grateful for everything and cannot recommend Megan highly enough.

Holly has been tutoring my son in English GCSE for the last half term. He has found the lessons very useful, working in a logical order through the different aspects of the curriculum. Holly is friendly, approachable and encouraging.
My Son has just had his mock exam results and has moved from just hitting an exam grade boundary to being 2 points off the next grade up. We are very pleased at his progress in a short space of time.

Brilliant English tutors who you’ll really click with.
Our experienced tutors take the time to understand where each student needs to focus and their preferred way of learning. They make a measurable difference – 90% of all students improve by at least one grade.
We live in Batley and are considering Heckmondwike Grammar. Can a tutor help with 11+ English preparation?
Absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in 11+ entrance exams. They can help your child build a strong vocabulary, improve their reading comprehension, and get familiar with the exam format, giving them a calm and confident approach to the tests.
My child is worried about getting the grades for Greenhead College. Can tutoring help with their GCSE English?
Yes, that's a very common goal we help students with. A tutor can provide focused support to help your child secure a grade 5 or above in GCSE English. In fact, our support can help students improve their GCSE results by up to two grades, which can make all the difference when applying for competitive A-Level places.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message tutors for free to find the perfect fit. Think about what your child needs most – is it confidence with poetry, or help structuring essays? Look for a tutor whose profile and experience match those goals.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own prices, which typically range from £25 to £55 per hour, depending on their experience and level of expertise. You can easily filter by price to find a brilliant tutor who fits your family's budget.
What happens in a typical online lesson?
Lessons take place in our interactive online classroom. It has a video chat, an interactive whiteboard for things like annotating texts together, and a space to share documents. It’s a dedicated, one-to-one learning space designed to help your child focus and engage with their tutor.
Can a tutor help if my child has lost their confidence in English?
Definitely. This is one of the most powerful benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can work at their own pace and ask questions without feeling judged. Celebrating small wins together is a fantastic way to rebuild their self-belief.
How do you make sure your tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every tutor and they must have a valid DBS check or equivalent background check. We also verify their ID and qualifications. We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
It's really important that your child feels comfortable with their tutor. 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 often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find a one-hour lesson once a week is a great starting point for consistent progress. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange more frequent sessions during exam periods or less frequent ones as a top-up – whatever works best for your child and your schedule.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also offer a huge range of other skills! Your child could learn to play the guitar, get started with coding in Python, or even learn a new language. It's all about supporting their passions.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Our tutors provide feedback after each session, so you'll always be kept in the loop. You can also message your tutor at any time to discuss your child's progress. Open communication is key to making sure your child is getting the support they need to achieve their goals.
How do I know Tutorful is a trusted platform?
We're proud to have a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 reviews from parents just like you. We've helped over 200,000 students find the support they need, and we're committed to helping your child succeed too.
