Josh L
Josh has been tutoring my son for several weeks now. When asking my son what he thought of the sessions she shared that the lessons were varied and he makes it interesting and fun, ( My Son is in year 10 - age 14) We were looking for a tutor to help my son with his English as he had a difficult year last year with his teacher and it became a dread and a stress. Having Josh tutoring him has given him more confidence in the subject. He is keen to have the lesson and always comes down afterwards and shares something good about it. He seems to be progressing well at school and I know these sessions can only be helping with that.

Grace B
My daughter worked with Grace as she wanted to re-take her English Language GCSE to improve her grade. My daughter thought Grace was a fantastic teacher. After her first lesson she said she had learnt more in an hour with her than she had in her previous two years at school! She has a lovely friendly manner and put my daughter at ease straight away. She also puts a lot into the lessons through preparation, marking and generally guiding the learning where it's needed most. As an examiner herself she also has a clear understanding of what students need to work on to succeed. Couldn't recommend her highly enough and whether or not my daughter does improve her grade, I know that the lessons were worthwhile. Thank you Grace!

John M
John has been nothing short of a miracle worker with our Year 9 son. In a matter of a few lessons his confidence in English has really grown. He was previously really disengaged with English & it was a real effort to get him to spend any amount of time on it. Now with John’s encouragement, he actually shows me his English homework & wants to improve, work at it. Highly recommend

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child with the specific requirements for A-Level courses at Bridgwater & Taunton College?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students meet the entry requirements for specific colleges. They can focus on the GCSE English skills needed to secure a grade 6 or above, ensuring your child has the best chance of getting a place on their desired A-Level course.
My child has aspirations for universities like Bristol or Exeter. Can tutoring now help with that?
Yes, building a strong foundation now is key. A high grade in GCSE English is often a prerequisite for top universities, regardless of the degree subject. A tutor can help your child develop the analytical and communication skills that will not only help them excel at GCSE and A-Level but also stand out in their university applications.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the right match for your child, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
There are so many tutors. How do I choose the right one for my child?
You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend shortlisting a few tutors who have experience with your child's specific goals—for example, GCSE English Language—and then sending them a message to see who feels like the best fit.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which are displayed clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study. This transparency allows you to find an expert tutor who fits your budget, with no hidden fees.
My child's confidence has taken a knock. Can a tutor help with that?
Building confidence is at the heart of what our tutors do. A one-to-one setting provides a safe space for your child to ask questions without fear of judgement. Celebrating small wins and mastering tricky topics together can make a huge difference to their self-belief.
How do online lessons actually work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It's a simple and effective way to learn from the comfort of your own home.
My child is quite shy. Will online tutoring work for them?
Many parents find online tutoring is perfect for shyer children. The one-to-one setting can feel less intimidating than a busy classroom, allowing them to build a rapport with their tutor and open up at their own pace.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most students have one lesson per week, as this provides consistency without being overwhelming. However, the frequency is completely up to you and can be discussed with your tutor. You might choose to have more sessions in the run-up to an important exam.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every tutor and all tutors must have a valid DBS check. We're very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can you help with other skills?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also offer a wide range of other skills. You can find expert tutors for everything from learning a musical instrument like the guitar to coding languages like Python or even public speaking.
What kind of results can we realistically expect?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our goal is to help them make real, measurable progress. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. For GCSEs, the right support can even help improve results by up to two grades.
