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!

Since starting lessons with Holly, Anissa’s confidence has grown noticeably, and she feels much more comfortable and positive in her learning. She really enjoys the sessions and speaks very warmly about Holly — she genuinely loves learning with her.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child get the English grade they need for Coleg Gwent?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in helping students secure the grades they need for further education, like a Grade 4/C in GCSE English. They can focus on the specific skills and exam techniques required to help your child meet the entry requirements for courses at Coleg Gwent or for local apprenticeships.
My child is worried about their English GCSEs. How can a tutor help?
It's common for students to feel anxious about GCSEs. A tutor provides a calm, supportive space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By breaking down difficult topics and building on their strengths, a tutor can help reduce that stress, boost their confidence, and make them feel much more prepared for their exams.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message them to ask questions before you book. Think about what your child needs – is it help with a specific text, exam practice, or general confidence? Finding someone your child connects with is the most important thing.
What if we don't click with the first tutor?
We know that the right fit is essential for learning. 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 much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, so prices vary depending on their experience and level of expertise. You can easily filter by price on our search page to find a brilliant tutor who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
Are your tutors safe and background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor is identity and background-checked before they can join our platform. We are very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident your child is in safe, expert hands.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence in English?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one session, a tutor can pinpoint exactly where your child is struggling and explain things in a way that clicks. Every small win in a lesson builds their self-belief, helping them feel more positive about the subject as a whole.
How long does it take to see an improvement in my child's grades?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our data shows that consistent tutoring makes a real difference. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one whole grade. The personalised attention helps them make progress much more quickly than they might in a busy classroom.
Can a tutor help with both English Language and English Literature?
Yes, many of our English tutors are experts in both and can create a lesson plan that covers the different demands of each subject. Whether your child needs help with creative writing for Language or analysing themes for Literature, you can find a tutor who covers exactly what they need.
How does online tutoring work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It's a secure and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of your home, with no travel required.
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 anything from coding and guitar to a new language or even music production. There's something for every interest.
