The skills your child develops in English—like analysing complex texts such as 'An Inspector Calls' or structuring a persuasive argument—are exactly what top universities like Exeter and Bristol look for. It gives them the foundation to succeed in any subject they choose, building their confidence for the journey ahead.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is at Braunton Academy and wants to go to Petroc College. Can a tutor help?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students make that exact step. They can focus on the specific GCSE English skills needed to not just pass, but to achieve the higher grades that make an application to competitive A-Level courses at Petroc stand out.
We're hoping for a top university like Exeter or Bristol. How can an English tutor help my child?
A strong English grade is crucial for applications to leading universities. A tutor can help your child develop the advanced analytical and writing skills that admissions tutors at places like Exeter and Bristol look for, giving them a real advantage when it's time to apply.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's easy to find the perfect match on Tutorful. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check each tutor's experience. Plus, you can message tutors for free before booking to make sure they're the right fit for your child's personality and learning needs.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, so you can find experienced, high-quality English support that fits your family's budget. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, so there are no hidden surprises.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want you and your child to feel completely comfortable. If the first lesson isn't the perfect fit, let us know. With our First Lesson Guarantee, we'll cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor. Just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk.
How do online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. It’s a simple and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of your home.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every tutor and carry out thorough background checks. We are very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How can a tutor help build my child's confidence?
Sometimes, all a child needs is a bit of one-to-one attention. In a supportive, pressure-free space, our tutors help your child work through problems at their own pace, celebrate their progress, and show them what they're truly capable of.
What results can we really expect?
Every child learns differently, but our approach gets results. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. Our goal is to give your child the tools and confidence they need to achieve their personal best.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
Not at all! While we have experts for core subjects from 11+ and GCSEs to A-Levels, we also have tutors who can teach hobbies and life skills. Whether your child wants to learn guitar, practice public speaking, or get started with coding, we can help.
How long will my child need tutoring for?
This is completely up to you and depends on your child's goals. Some parents use tutors for a short-term boost before exams, while others prefer regular weekly sessions to provide ongoing support throughout the school year. You can discuss this with your chosen tutor.
How do I pay for lessons?
Paying for lessons is simple and secure. Your payment details are stored safely, and you are only charged 24 hours after each lesson is complete. There are no sign-up fees or complicated contracts.
