Megan G
Over the past few months, Megan has been an incredible support for my son during what has been a very challenging period for him. Her patience and encouragement has made a huge difference not only to his English and maths skills but also to his confidence and attitude towards learning.
Megan has adapted each lesson to his needs, finding creative ways to help him stay engaged. It’s clear she puts a tremendous amount of thought and effort into her teaching.
I am truly grateful for everything and cannot recommend Megan highly enough.

Ben D
Ben is an amazing tutor, he’s really got my step son who has Asperger’s to engage, lessons are planned and structured, post lesson feedback given which really helps as I can send it over to his mom after his lesson and know what he needs to revise. Definitely a worthwhile investment in my step sons future!

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.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child hopes to study at Cardiff University. Can a tutor help with their application?
Absolutely. An English tutor can be invaluable in helping your child craft a compelling personal statement that stands out. They can also help them achieve the A-Level grades needed for a competitive course by strengthening their essay writing and analytical skills.
With the high standards at schools like Cardiff High, how can a tutor help my child keep up?
A one-to-one tutor provides a safe, encouraging space for your child to ask questions they might not feel comfortable asking in a large class. This helps fill any knowledge gaps, reinforces classroom learning, and builds the confidence they need to participate and succeed.
My main worry is my child's English GCSE. How much can a tutor really help?
A great deal. Tutors can focus specifically on the areas your child finds most difficult, from poetry analysis to exam technique. We know this targeted support works—our data shows we can help students improve their GCSE results by up to 2 grades.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's a personal choice, and we make it easy. You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. You can also message tutors beforehand to discuss your child's needs to ensure it's a great fit.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We know how important the right student-tutor relationship is. 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 do online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. All sessions are also recorded, so your child can re-watch them anytime for revision.
How do you make sure your tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. We only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor is interviewed, has their ID and qualifications checked, and undergoes an enhanced DBS background check.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Tutors set their own hourly rates based on their experience. You can easily filter tutors by price on our website to find an expert who fits your budget, with prices starting from £15 per hour.
It's not just about grades. Can a tutor help my child's confidence?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. The personalised attention and supportive environment helps children feel more capable and less anxious about their studies, which often translates into better performance and a happier school life.
How often should my child have a lesson?
This is entirely up to you and depends on your child's goals. Many parents find a regular weekly session provides the perfect amount of consistent support, especially in the run-up to exams, but you can schedule lessons as often as you need.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
Not at all! While we have experts for core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also have tutors for a huge range of other skills. Your child could learn to play the guitar, get help with coding in Python, or even learn a new language.
What happens in the first lesson?
The first session is usually about the tutor getting to know your child. They'll chat about what your child enjoys, what they find challenging in English, and what their goals are. From there, they'll create a tailored plan to help them succeed.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
If things aren’t right with your first lesson just let us know. We’ll pay for
your next lesson with a new tutor – and even help you find them.
