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 attends Berkhamsted School. Can we find a tutor experienced with their curriculum?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors have experience supporting students from a wide range of schools, including independent schools like Berkhamsted. You can view each tutor's profile to see their specific experience and even message them before booking to ask about their familiarity with your child's curriculum.
We live in Berkhamsted, but does the tutor have to be local?
No, and that's one of the biggest benefits of online tutoring! Your child can connect with the very best English tutors from all over the UK, not just those in the local area. This gives you a much wider choice of specialists to find the perfect match for your child's needs.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We understand that the right fit is crucial for building confidence. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you find the first session isn't quite right for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk, and we will cover the cost of your first lesson with a new tutor.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
While we're experts in core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also have brilliant tutors for a huge range of other skills! From learning to play the guitar or piano to getting to grips with coding languages like Python, there's a tutor for almost any interest.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
Start by reading tutor profiles and reviews from other parents. You can see their experience, qualifications, and a short video to get a feel for their personality. We recommend shortlisting a few and sending them a message to discuss your child's goals before you book.
How much does an English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Each tutor sets their own hourly rate, which is clearly displayed on their profile. This transparency allows you to find a brilliant tutor who also fits your family's budget.
How does the online classroom work?
Our online classroom is simple and secure. It has an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and a space to share documents, so your child and their tutor can work through everything from essays to grammar exercises together, just as they would in person.
How can tutoring help my child feel more confident in English?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might be shy to ask in class. Tutors celebrate small wins and break down tricky topics, which helps your child see they *can* do it, building their self-belief lesson by lesson.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed a background check and has been interviewed by our team. We're very selective – we only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply – so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find a weekly one-hour session works best to build momentum and keep learning consistent. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange lessons as often as you need with your tutor, whether it's a one-off session before an exam or more intensive support.
My child finds analysing poetry really difficult. Can a tutor help with that?
Definitely. This is a perfect example of how one-to-one tutoring helps. A tutor can spend the entire lesson focusing on poetry, using methods that resonate with your child to demystify things like metaphors and meter until they feel comfortable tackling it on their own.
How do I pay for lessons?
Paying is simple and secure. You add your payment details to your account, and after each completed lesson, payment is processed automatically. You don't have to worry about handling cash or making bank transfers.
