The skills they'll sharpen – from analysing a quote in 'Macbeth' to crafting a persuasive argument – are exactly what universities and employers look for. It gives them the ability to think critically and communicate clearly, setting them up to compete for the best opportunities in South Wales and beyond.

Hi, I’m John, I’m 23 and I’m currently studying law at Demontfort University. I have been tutoring now for almost two years mainly in maths from KS1 up to GCSE and have developed the knowledge and skills to be able to tailor my lessons to best suit the student as no one style will work best for everyone.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Are the tutors familiar with the WJEC curriculum used in Caerphilly schools?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors are experts in the WJEC curriculum for GCSE English Language and Literature. You can check each tutor's profile to see their specific experience and even message them before booking to ensure they're the right fit for your child's needs.
My child hopes to apply to Cardiff or Swansea University. Can a tutor help with their application?
Definitely. Beyond curriculum support, many of our English tutors have extensive experience helping students with their UCAS applications, including crafting compelling personal statements that stand out to admissions tutors at competitive universities.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's all about finding the right personality and expertise. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check each tutor's qualifications on their profile. We recommend messaging a few to find someone your child will connect with.
What happens if we don't click with the first English tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. 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 much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own rates, so you can easily browse and find an expert who fits your budget. All pricing is clearly displayed on their profiles with no hidden costs.
How can tutoring help my child feel more confident?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions without feeling embarrassed. As their tutor helps them grasp difficult concepts, you'll see their self-belief grow, which has a positive impact on their schoolwork and beyond.
How are your tutors vetted?
Your child's safety is our top priority. We have a strict vetting process and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor is background-checked, and we also verify their ID and qualifications to ensure you're connecting with trusted professionals.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple and effective. All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
How quickly can we expect to see results?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our data shows that 90% of students improve by at least one grade. The focused, one-to-one attention often leads to progress much faster than in a classroom setting alone.
Is tutoring just for school subjects like English?
Not at all! While we have experts for core subjects from the 11+ to degree level, we also offer tutors for a huge range of skills and hobbies. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, master coding, or get help with a personal project, we can help.
What if our family has a really busy schedule?
That's one of the main benefits of online tutoring. You're not limited by travel time or location. You can find a tutor who fits around your family's commitments, whether it's after school, on weekends, or during the holidays.
Can a tutor help with both English Language and Literature?
Yes, many of our English tutors are specialists in both and can create a learning plan that covers everything your child needs for their GCSEs, from analysing poetry to mastering grammar and punctuation for their language exams.
