Nadiah K
Nadiah is an AMAZING English tutor.
Nadiah is very reliable, organised and efficient, prompting and guiding my son to keep on track outside of sessions aswell. I have had feedback from school after just a few months that the quality of my sons writing has improved significantly and teachers have asked if he has been doing anything different.
My son is also developing more of an interest in the subject which has been really nice to see.

Jeremy B
After the first lesson my son announced “That was amazing Mum, you need to watch the video, he was SUCH a good teacher”. This couldn’t have been more different to previous feedback on our attempts to find an English tutor. I’m delighted that Jeremy is structured in his lessons, but also his tone is very friendly and fun! My 12 year old son has Tourettes and ADHD, and has been quite unwell. It’s also done wonders for my mental health knowing Jeremy is guiding my son through English, after seeing the videos I do not have this skill! 100% recommend him!

Michelle P
Wonderful English Tutor!
Michelle has been an incredible English tutor for our daughter Sarah. She always starts each session with a fun “mind boggle,” which Sarah absolutely loves — it sets such a positive and energising tone for the lesson. From the moment she enters the class, Michelle makes Sarah smile.
Her lessons are interesting, engaging, and thoughtfully planned. Michelle brings a fantastic mix of humour, enthusiasm, and kindness to every session, and it truly shows in Sarah’s enjoyment and progress. She has a wonderful teaching style that keeps Sarah motivated and excited to learn.
We are so grateful for Michelle’s support and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an English tutor who can make learning both effective and fun.
Thank you Michelle.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child feels pressure to keep up with the standards set by local schools. Can a tutor help?
Absolutely. It's a common concern for parents. A one-to-one tutor can create a relaxed, encouraging space for your child to work at their own pace. They can focus on the specific areas your child needs to strengthen, building their skills and confidence so they feel ready for any academic challenge.
We're hoping for a place at the University of Sussex or Brighton. Can a tutor help with A-Level preparation?
Yes, many of our English tutors are experienced in supporting students with the step-up to A-Levels and university applications. They can help your child develop the advanced analytical and essay-writing skills needed to succeed in their exams and stand out in their personal statements.
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 match. Think about what your child needs most – is it help with a specific text, exam technique, or general confidence? Finding a tutor your child connects with is key to their success.
How much does online English tutoring cost in Battle?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can easily filter tutors by price to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or long-term contracts.
Can tutoring really improve my child's GCSE English grade?
Yes, it can make a significant difference. Our focused, one-to-one support can help your child improve their GCSE results by up to two grades. It gives them the dedicated attention they need to master difficult topics and refine their exam technique.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our interactive online classroom. It has a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It’s a secure and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of your home.
Are the tutors' backgrounds checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and we interview every applicant. 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 we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect fit. With 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 can a tutor help build my child's confidence?
Sometimes, a lack of confidence is the biggest barrier to learning. A great tutor provides patient, positive encouragement. By celebrating small wins and breaking down big challenges, they help your child see their own ability, which can transform their attitude towards English.
How long are the lessons and how often should we have them?
Lessons are typically one hour long, and most students have one session per week. However, it's completely flexible. You can discuss what works best for your child's learning needs and your family's schedule directly with your chosen tutor.
Do you offer tutoring for skills other than school subjects?
Yes, we do! While we have experts for core subjects like English and Maths, we also have tutors who can teach a wide range of skills, from learning a musical instrument like the guitar to practical skills like coding and public speaking.
What happens if our schedule changes and we need to miss a lesson?
We understand that life can be busy. You can easily reschedule or cancel a lesson with your tutor. We just ask that you give them at least 24 hours' notice, but you can discuss their specific policy with them directly.
