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!

Matthew has been teaching my son since September and he absolutely enjoys the lessons. He explains writing in a way my son can understand, and we’ve already seen a boost in his confidence. Really friendly, patient, and supportive — we’re very happy with the progress so far. Highly recommend!

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.

Myles was a great tutor for my daughter, who was struggling with school. Homeschooling, alongside lessons with Myles, gave her the confidence she needed to pass Maths GCSE and get into her chosen college and course :)

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is preparing for the Transfer Test. Can I find a tutor with experience in this?

Absolutely. Many of our English tutors have specific experience helping children in Northern Ireland prepare for the Transfer Test. You can check their profiles for this expertise and even message them beforehand to discuss your child's specific needs, like improving their comprehension skills.

We're hoping for a place at a school like Aquinas or Methodist College. Can a tutor help with that specific goal?

Yes, they can. While we can't guarantee a place, a tutor can provide targeted support to help your child perform their very best. They can focus on strengthening the exact English skills needed for the entrance exams, building your child's confidence and technique for the big day.

How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?

You can browse tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and read reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's goals before booking. Finding the right personality match is just as important as their experience.

How much does an online English tutor cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. You can filter your search by price to find a great tutor who fits your family's budget.

Are all your tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform undergoes a thorough vetting process, including an identity and background check, before they can start teaching. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the best.

What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?

We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. 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 does the online classroom work?

Our online classroom is custom-built for one-to-one learning. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It's a simple and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of your home.

How can a tutor help if my child has lost their confidence in English?

This is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tuition. A great tutor creates a supportive, patient environment where your child feels comfortable asking questions. By breaking down topics and celebrating small wins, they can help rebuild your child's self-belief, step by step.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or even learn a new language, you can find an expert tutor to help them explore their interests.

How long are the lessons?

Lessons are typically one hour long, but you can arrange different session lengths directly with your tutor. It's flexible to fit what works best for your child's concentration and your family's schedule.

How do I pay for lessons?

Payments are simple and secure. You add your card details to your account, and we process the payment automatically 24 hours after each lesson is completed. You'll never need to handle cash or worry about remembering to pay.

What is your review rating?

We're proud to have a rating of 4.6 stars from over 4,100+ reviews from parents just like you. It's wonderful to see how we've helped over 200,000 happy students find the support they need.
