Effective English tutor
Hello my name is Alina, and I’m a dentistry student. I have excellent A levels and GCSE grades being an A* student and have had tutoring experience before with children aged 5-17 years old. My students have always loved my lessons as I make sure that each child understands the lesson or what they have chosen to work on before leaving.My teaching style is unique as rather telling the students what they’re doing today, they themselves would email me a couple of days before telling me they want to do this topic today. This meant that the student has control of their own learning and working on the...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

We're preparing for the 11+ for Trafford grammar schools. Can a tutor help?

Absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in 11+ preparation and are very familiar with the requirements for the Trafford grammar school exams. They can help your child build core comprehension and creative writing skills, as well as work on exam technique and time management to help them feel calm and confident on the day.

My child is aiming for Cheadle Hulme School. Can we find a tutor with experience in independent school entrance exams?

Yes, you can. You can browse tutor profiles to find those with specific experience in preparing students for independent school entrance exams, including those for schools like Cheadle Hulme School. They can tailor sessions to the specific format and style of these assessments.

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

The best way is to read tutor profiles, check their experience, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality. You can message tutors for free to ask about their approach to teaching, especially regarding your child's specific goals, like 11+ prep or GCSE support. Finding someone your child connects with is key.

How much does an online English tutor cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can filter tutors by price to find someone who fits your budget. The cost is clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, so there are no hidden fees.

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

We want to make sure you find the perfect match. With 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.

Are your tutors safe and background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every tutor and all tutors must have a valid DBS check (or equivalent) before they can teach on our platform. We're very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 applicants, so you can be sure your child is learning from a trusted professional.

How can tutoring help my child feel more confident in English?

Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might be shy about in class. Tutors can break down difficult topics, celebrate small wins, and adapt their teaching style, which helps your child feel capable and much more positive about their abilities.

How do 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. It’s designed to be simple and engaging, allowing your child and their tutor to collaborate just as they would in person.

Can a tutor help with specific GCSE texts, like 'An Inspector Calls'?

Definitely. Our tutors can provide expert guidance on specific curriculum texts. They can help your child explore themes, analyse characters, and structure essays in a way that will impress examiners, turning a source of stress into an area of strength.

How often should my child have lessons?

Most students have one lesson per week, as this provides consistency without being overwhelming. However, it's completely flexible. You can discuss what works best for your child's schedule and learning goals directly with your chosen tutor.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn something new?

While we have thousands of tutors for core subjects like English, Maths and Science, we also have experts who can teach practical skills and hobbies. From learning to play the guitar or piano to getting started with coding, there's a huge range of subjects available.

What qualifications do your English tutors have?

Our tutors come from a wide range of backgrounds, including qualified teachers, university lecturers, and subject matter experts with degrees in English. You can view each tutor's full qualifications and experience on their profile to help you make an informed choice.
