Holly E
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.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
We're aiming for a South West Herts grammar school. Can a tutor help with the 11+ English paper?
Absolutely. Many of our English tutors are very experienced in preparing children for the 11+ entrance exams. They can help your child build confidence in key areas like comprehension, creative writing, and grammar, as well as developing effective exam techniques.
My child is applying to an independent school like Haberdashers'. Can tutors help with specific entrance exams?
Yes. Our tutors can create a tailored plan to prepare your child for the specific requirements of independent school entrance exams. You can discuss your target schools with tutors before booking to find someone with the right experience for you.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. That's 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 do I choose the best English tutor for my child?
Every tutor has a detailed profile where you can see their experience, qualifications, and reviews from other parents just like you. You can also send them a message before booking to discuss your child's needs and see if they are a good fit.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident in English?
One-to-one lessons provide a safe, encouraging space for your child to ask questions without the pressure of a classroom. Tutors can break down difficult topics, celebrate small wins, and adapt their teaching style to help your child feel capable and motivated.
How much does an English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on experience and level of study, so you can find an expert tutor that fits your family's budget.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It has all the tools needed for your child to have an engaging, effective lesson from home.
How do I know my child is safe on the platform?
Your child's safety is our top priority. All of our tutors have been through a rigorous selection process, and we carry out background checks on every UK-based tutor. All lessons can also be recorded for your peace of mind.
Can a tutor help with a specific GCSE text, like 'An Inspector Calls'?
Yes, definitely. Many of our English tutors are specialists in the GCSE curriculum and can provide expert help with specific texts, focusing on theme, character, and quote analysis to help your child prepare for their exams.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that a one-hour lesson each week works best, but it's completely flexible. You can arrange a schedule that suits your child's goals and your family's routine directly with your chosen tutor.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or guitar?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn coding, play the guitar, or even study music production, you can find expert tutors across hundreds of subjects on Tutorful.
What happens if we need to cancel a lesson?
We have a simple 12-hour cancellation policy. As long as you give your tutor at least 12 hours' notice, you can cancel or reschedule a lesson without being charged. You can manage all your bookings easily through your Tutorful account.
