Learning English, it's the beginning of achievement!

Then starting with...
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.

Mamun A
My son is really improving since starting lessons with Mamun. From the start of the lesson getting almost all questions wrong to by the end completely understanding it all. Tested him a few days later and he got almost every question right without any help at all he remembered all the punctuation in all questions, shocked how much he's improved from just one lesson on it! Mamun's teaching is brilliant and it really seems to stick in my sons head. Also my son is very fussy with his ASD/ADHD and is often open about his feelings towards people, especially new people most often than not he will say he doesn't like this person because of this or that, but he said he likes his tutor and wants to do more lessons which is brilliant. Mamun is always on time, very patient and explains thoroughly, he gives brilliant feedback afterwards too. Highly recommend this tutor and I'm glad I chose him rather than someone else.

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.

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.
My child wants to study A-Levels at Hugh Baird College. Can a tutor help them get the required GCSE English grade?
Absolutely. This is one of the most common reasons parents in Bootle come to us. Our tutors are experienced in helping students secure the GCSE grades they need to progress to their chosen A-Level courses. They can focus specifically on the exam board your child's school uses and work on the areas needed to boost their grade.
We're hoping for the University of Liverpool. How can an English tutor support this long-term goal?
A tutor can build a strong foundation right from the start. For a competitive university, strong communication and analytical skills are vital. A tutor can help your child develop these through their GCSE and A-Level English studies, ensuring they not only get the grades but also build the confidence and skills needed for university-level work.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's all about finding the right fit. You can read reviews from other parents, watch introductory videos, and message tutors for free to discuss your child's specific needs before booking. This helps you find someone your child will connect with.
How much does online English tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the level of study. Tutors set their own rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles, so you can find an experienced tutor who fits your budget.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match, which is why we have a 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 my child with their confidence in English?
Confidence is key. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might be shy about in class. A tutor can celebrate small wins, break down difficult topics into manageable steps, and show them that they are capable of succeeding.
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 only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the best.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple and effective. Lessons take place in our online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
How long does it take to see an improvement in my child's grades?
Every child learns at their own pace, but consistency is important. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence and understanding within just a few sessions. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.
Can my child get help with specific texts, like Shakespeare or poetry?
Yes, definitely. Our English tutors can provide focused support on any area of the curriculum, whether it's understanding 'An Inspector Calls', analysing unseen poetry, or getting to grips with Shakespearean language for their exams.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or guitar?
While we're well known for academic subjects like English and Maths, we also have brilliant tutors for a whole range of other skills. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or even learn a new language, you can find a tutor for it here.
Can a tutor help my child if they have fallen behind at school?
Yes, this is a great way to use tutoring. A one-to-one tutor can identify the specific gaps in your child's knowledge and create a plan to help them catch up at a comfortable pace, rebuilding their confidence along the way.
