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
My child wants to study specific A-Levels at Coleg Sir Gâr. Can a tutor help them get the required GCSE English grades?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in helping students secure the GCSE grades they need for their next steps. They can focus on the specific skills and knowledge required for the English Language and Literature exams, giving your child the best chance of meeting the entry requirements for their chosen A-Level courses.
We're hoping for a place at Cardiff or Swansea University. How can an English tutor help with that?
Strong English skills are vital for a competitive university application. A tutor can help your child not only achieve a higher grade but also develop the critical thinking and essay-writing skills that are essential for university-level study. They can also provide valuable support when it comes to writing a compelling personal statement.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is important. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
Do you only offer tutoring for school subjects like English?
Not at all! While we have experts in all core academic subjects, we also have tutors who can help your child learn a musical instrument like the guitar, explore coding languages like Python, or even master a new language. There's a wide range of skills to discover.
Can tutoring really improve my child's GCSE English grade?
Yes, it can make a significant difference. The focused, one-to-one support helps close knowledge gaps and build exam technique. In fact, our data shows that we can help improve a child's GCSE results by up to 2 grades.
There are so many tutors. How do I choose the right one for my child?
You can start by using our filters to narrow down tutors by experience and price. We recommend watching their short intro videos to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. Reading reviews from other parents is also a great way to find the perfect match for your child's needs.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile. There are no hidden fees or long-term contracts, so you have complete control over what you spend.
My child’s confidence in English is low. Can a tutor really help with that?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. In a supportive, private setting, your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. A great tutor celebrates small wins and helps them see their own progress, which is often the key to rebuilding their self-belief.
How do you check your tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is identity and background-checked, and we interview them to ensure they have the right experience. We're very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply to our platform, so you can be sure your child is in safe hands.
How do the online lessons actually work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. All they need is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection. It's simple, secure, and designed for learning.
How often should my child have a lesson?
This is completely up to you and depends on your child's goals. Most families find a one-hour lesson once a week works well for steady progress, but you can schedule more frequent sessions during busy exam periods. You can discuss the best approach with your chosen tutor.
How can I track my child's progress?
We encourage open communication. You can message your tutor at any time through the platform to ask questions or discuss progress. Tutors will also provide feedback after sessions, so you'll always be in the loop about how your child is getting on.
