Siobhan L
Siobhan was excellent and I’m really pleased with how the first session went. She was really well prepared and explained things clearly throughout the lesson. She worked patiently with my son and made him feel at ease, which was great to see as he can be quite shy at first. She asked thoughtful questions and encouraged him to share his ideas, helping to build his confidence as the session went on. Overall, it was a very positive and engaging first lesson. Thanks Siobhan!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child get the grades needed for New College Doncaster?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are very experienced in helping students secure the specific GCSE grades required for competitive post-16 providers like New College Doncaster. They can focus on the exact skills and exam techniques needed to help your child meet the entry requirements for their chosen A-Levels or courses.
My child is hoping to apply to the University of Sheffield. Can a tutor support them?
Yes. While tutors focus on current studies like GCSEs or A-Levels, their support is crucial for building the strong academic profile needed for universities like Sheffield or Sheffield Hallam. A great tutor can also help with developing the critical thinking and writing skills that make a personal statement stand out.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check ratings and reviews from other parents. We recommend shortlisting a few and sending them a message to discuss your child's specific needs before booking. It's all about finding the right personality and teaching style for your child.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We want to make sure it's the perfect match. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your first tutor for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.
How do I know the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked with an enhanced DBS check. We also interview every applicant and only accept 1 in 8, so you can be sure your child is learning from a trusted and experienced professional.
Will online tutoring really help my child's confidence?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits we see. The one-to-one attention from a supportive tutor helps your child ask questions they might not ask in class. Celebrating small wins and overcoming challenges together in a safe space does wonders for their self-esteem.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, so prices vary depending on their experience. You can easily filter tutors by price to find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts – you simply pay as you go for the lessons you book.
Can a tutor help with both English Language and English Literature?
Definitely. Most English tutors are experts in both GCSE English Language and English Literature. They can help your child get to grips with everything from analysing unseen fiction to remembering key quotes from 'An Inspector Calls'. You can see their specific areas of expertise on their profile.
How does the online classroom work?
Our online classroom is simple and easy to use. It has video chat, an interactive whiteboard for working through problems together, and a space to share documents like essays or past papers. All your child needs is a computer or tablet and an internet connection.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
The standard lesson length is one hour, which we find is perfect for covering a topic in detail without losing focus. However, you can discuss different lesson lengths with your tutor if your child would benefit from a shorter or longer session.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the core curriculum. Alongside academic support, your child can learn practical skills like coding or a new language, or even explore creative pursuits like guitar or music production. There's something for every interest.
How quickly can we get started?
You can get started today! Simply search for English tutors, find one you like, and send them a message to arrange your first lesson. Many tutors can offer a session within a few days, so your child can get the support they need quickly.
