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 demands of the WJEC English GCSEs?
Absolutely. Many of our English tutors have extensive experience with the WJEC curriculum. They can help your child get to grips with the specific assessment objectives, from analysing unseen poetry to mastering persuasive writing, giving them the best chance of securing the grades they need.
My child hopes to study A-Levels at Coleg Sir Gâr. Can a tutor help them achieve the right GCSE grades?
Yes, that's a brilliant goal and a common reason parents come to us. Our tutors focus on closing any learning gaps and building exam confidence to help students improve their GCSE results. In fact, we can help students improve their GCSE results by up to 2 grades, putting them in a strong position for their college applications.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the perfect match for your child, simply email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check each tutor's experience on their profile. You can also message tutors before booking to discuss your child's specific needs and goals to ensure they're a great fit.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates based on their experience, typically ranging from £25 to £50. You can see the price clearly on each tutor's profile, so you can find an expert who fits your budget with no hidden costs.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors undergo a thorough vetting process, including identity and background checks, before they can join our platform. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe hands.
How do the online lessons work?
Lessons take place in our interactive online classroom, which is designed specifically for one-to-one learning. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and tools for sharing documents, making lessons engaging and effective.
My child lacks confidence in English. How can a tutor help with that?
This is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor creates a safe, encouraging environment where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By celebrating small wins and explaining concepts in a way that clicks, they help build your child's self-belief lesson by lesson.
How many lessons will my child need?
This really depends on your child's individual goals. Some students have a few sessions to prepare for a specific exam, while others have regular weekly lessons to build their skills over time. You can discuss a plan with your chosen tutor during your first session.
Can tutoring fit around our family's busy schedule?
Yes, absolutely. The flexibility of online tutoring is a huge benefit. You're not limited to tutors in your immediate area, and you can arrange sessions for evenings or weekends to fit around school, clubs, and family life.
How do I know if my child is making progress?
Our tutors provide regular feedback to keep you in the loop. You can also message your tutor at any time to discuss your child's progress. Seeing your child's confidence grow and their school results improve is often the clearest sign that tutoring is working.
Do you only offer tutoring for core academic subjects like English?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects, we also offer support in a huge range of other areas! Whether your child wants to learn a musical instrument, get ahead with coding, or even learn a new language, you can find an expert tutor on our platform.
