Personalised English Support, When Your Child Needs It Most
The right tutor does more than just teach a subject; they get to know your child. They'll take the time to understand how your child learns best, what they find tricky, and what their goals are. We help you find that perfect match from our hand-picked tutors. We only accept 1 in 8 applicants, and all are background-checked, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands. Every lesson is tailored specifically to your child's needs. If they're finding poetry analysis difficult, their tutor will focus on building those skills. If the goal is preparing for the specific demands of the 11+ English paper, their sessions will be geared towards that. It's this focused approach that helps 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. Juggling school, clubs, and family life is hard enough. Online tutoring fits around your schedule.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is preparing for the 11+ for Bourne Grammar School. Can a tutor help?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our English tutors have specific experience with 11+ preparation. They can help your child build the core comprehension, grammar, and creative writing skills needed, while also working on exam technique and confidence.
We're aiming for a Russell Group university. Can a tutor help with the personal statement?
Yes. A skilled English tutor can be a brilliant guide for the university application process. They can help your child structure their thoughts, refine their writing, and articulate their ambitions in a personal statement that truly reflects their strengths and passions.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's all about finding the right fit. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, 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?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on experience and level, so you can find an expert tutor that fits your family's budget.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors are background-checked and we have a rigorous selection process, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply. You can learn more in our Trust and Safety centre.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right student-tutor relationship is. 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 can tutoring help my child build confidence?
One-to-one tutoring creates a safe, supportive space where there are no wrong questions. When a child feels heard and understood by a patient expert, they feel more comfortable tackling difficult topics, which is often the key to unlocking their confidence.
How does the online classroom work?
Our online classroom is designed to be simple and effective. It includes video chat, an interactive whiteboard for problem-solving, and a tool for sharing documents. It has everything your child needs for an engaging, one-to-one lesson.
How often should my child have lessons?
Most families find a one-hour lesson each week works perfectly, but the frequency is completely up to you. You can arrange a schedule that fits your child's needs and your family's routine directly with your chosen tutor.
How quickly will my child make progress?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our data shows that consistent, personalised support works. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade, and many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence after just a few sessions.
Can a tutor help my child with their GCSEs?
Yes. Our tutors can provide targeted support for both English Language and English Literature GCSEs. They can help your child improve their results by up to two grades by focusing on key areas like essay writing, textual analysis, and exam strategy.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or guitar?
While we have thousands of expert academic tutors, we also have talented tutors who teach hobbies and life skills. You can find support for everything from learning a musical instrument and coding to mastering a new language.
