Find the Right Online English Tutor in Cambuslang for Your Child
It’s completely understandable to feel the pressure. With fantastic universities like Glasgow and Strathclyde so close, you want to give your child the best possible chance. You know that a borderline pass in National 5 English could make it much harder for them to study it at Higher level, and you worry that might close doors to their future aspirations.
That’s where we can help. A one-to-one English tutor can work with your child, whether they're at Cathkin High, Trinity High, or another local school, to build the specific skills they need. It’s about giving them the confidence and the tools to tackle those challenges head-on.

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
My child is worried about the step up from National 5 to Higher English. Can a tutor help?
Absolutely. This is a very common concern for parents. Our tutors are experienced in helping students bridge that gap. They can focus on the specific skills needed for Higher, such as advanced critical essay writing and in-depth textual analysis, building your child's confidence and ability level by level.
We have our sights set on the University of Glasgow or Strathclyde. Can a tutor help strengthen their application?
Yes, a tutor can be a great help. While they don't write the application, they can help your child develop the advanced English skills that top universities look for. Mastering clear, persuasive writing and critical thinking will make their personal statement and future academic work stand out.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's all about finding the right fit. You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check ratings and reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific goals before booking a session to make sure you've found the perfect match.
How do you make sure the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and interviewed by our team. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from a skilled and trusted expert.
How much does an English tutor in Cambuslang cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can set your own budget and filter your search to find a great tutor who fits your family's finances. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
What happens if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match, which is 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 can tutoring help if my child lacks confidence in English?
Confidence is key. In a one-to-one session, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might be too shy to ask in class. A great tutor celebrates small wins and breaks down big challenges, helping your child see their own progress and build self-belief.
How long are the lessons and how often should we have them?
Lessons are typically one hour long, and most students have one session per week. However, it's completely flexible. You and your tutor can decide on the best frequency and duration to help your child meet their goals without feeling overwhelmed.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn something like creative writing?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum. Many of our English tutors are also fantastic creative writing coaches. You can also find tutors for everything from coding and music to learning a new language.
What technology do we need for online lessons?
It's very simple. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom has all the tools needed, like an interactive whiteboard, so you don't need any special software.
Can a tutor help my child prepare for their SQA exams?
Yes, definitely. Many of our tutors are experts in the SQA curriculum. They can work with your child on past papers, exam technique, and time management to help them feel calm and prepared when they walk into the exam hall.
How can I track my child's progress?
The best way is to have regular chats with your child's tutor. They can give you specific feedback on where your child is improving and what they'll be focusing on next. Seeing your child's growing confidence is also a wonderful sign of progress!
