Experienced English tutor
Hi, I’m John, I’m 23 and I’m currently studying law at Demontfort University. I have been tutoring now for almost two years mainly in maths from KS1 up to GCSE and have developed the knowledge and skills to be able to tailor my lessons to best suit the student as no one style will work best for everyone.

Gearoid C
Gearoid supported my son with GCSE English during a key transition period in Year 11. My son had moved schools and was adjusting to a different GCSE specification, which had left noticeable gaps in his knowledge. Gearoid helped him bridge those gaps methodically and clarified the expectations of the exam board.
From the very first session, there was a shift in confidence. My son came out saying, “So I’m not stupid.” Over time, that developed into him saying he “felt clever.” For a student who can struggle with processing speed and exam anxiety, this was a significant and meaningful change.
Gearoid is calm, professional and thoughtful in his approach. He communicates clearly, is reliable, and genuinely cares about his students’ progress. I am grateful for the role he played in rebuilding both understanding and belief.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child wants to go to Stoke-on-Trent Sixth Form College. Can a tutor help them get the English grade they need?
Absolutely. This is one of the most common reasons parents in Cheadle come to us. Our tutors are experienced in helping students target the specific grades needed for entry into competitive colleges. They can focus on exam board requirements, strengthen weak areas, and build the confidence your child needs to achieve their goals.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It’s easy to find the perfect match on Tutorful. You can watch short video introductions, read reviews from other parents, and check a tutor’s experience with the specific curriculum your child is studying. You can even message tutors for free before booking to make sure they’re the right fit for your child’s personality and learning style.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right student-tutor relationship is. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the right fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
Are your tutors qualified to teach GCSE English?
Yes. Many of our tutors are qualified teachers, examiners, or subject matter experts with degrees in English. You can view each tutor's full qualifications and experience on their profile, so you can feel confident you're choosing an expert who knows the GCSE curriculum inside and out.
How much does online English tutoring cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, so prices vary depending on their experience and qualifications. This means you can find an excellent, affordable tutor who fits your budget. All pricing is shown clearly on each tutor's profile, with no hidden costs.
How does online tutoring actually work?
All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents and past papers. It’s a secure and effective learning space that your child can access from any computer or tablet at home.
Can a tutor help my child if they've lost their confidence in English?
Yes, this is often where our tutors make the biggest impact. A one-to-one setting provides a safe space for your child to ask questions without fear of judgement. Our tutors are brilliant at building confidence by celebrating small wins and breaking down tricky topics into manageable steps.
How are your tutors vetted?
Your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every tutor and they must provide a valid DBS check. We also verify their ID and references. We're very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
Can a tutor help with university applications to places like Keele or Staffordshire later on?
Yes, many of our tutors can provide support beyond GCSEs. They can help with A-Level studies, personal statement writing for UCAS applications, and interview preparation, giving your child valuable guidance as they aim for top local universities.
How long does it take to see an improvement in my child's grades?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our tailored approach means you can see progress quickly. Many parents notice a boost in their child's confidence after just a few sessions. With consistent lessons, 90% of our students improve their academic results by at least one grade.
What happens in a typical one-hour English lesson?
A typical lesson is focused entirely on your child's needs. The tutor might start by reviewing a recent piece of schoolwork, then move on to explaining a difficult concept like poetic devices, before working through practice questions together on the interactive whiteboard to build your child's skills and confidence.
Do you offer tutoring for subjects other than core academic ones?
Yes, we do! While we have experts for core subjects like English, Maths and Science, we also have talented tutors who can teach a wide range of skills. Your child can learn anything from coding and playing the guitar to a new language or even public speaking.
