For the competitive 11+ and 13+ exams, a deep understanding of comprehension and a flair for creative writing can make all the difference. Later on, mastering textual analysis is vital for crafting a personal statement that catches the eye of admissions tutors at Russell Group and Ivy League universities. It’s a skill that builds confidence and helps them communicate their ideas clearly, for life.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is preparing for the 11+ for schools like Francis Holland. Can I find a specialist tutor?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our English tutors have specific experience helping students prepare for 11+ and 13+ entrance exams for top independent schools. You can read their profiles to see their areas of expertise and even message them beforehand to discuss your child's specific needs.
We're aiming for a top Russell Group university. Can a tutor help with an A-Level personal statement?
Definitely. An A-Level English tutor can be an incredible asset here. They can help your child deepen their textual analysis skills and guide them in articulating their passion for the subject, helping them craft a personal statement that truly stands out to university admissions teams.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is for your child's confidence. 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 I choose the right English tutor for my child?
We make it easy to find the perfect match. You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and filter by experience and subject level. We always recommend sending a message to a few tutors first to chat about your child’s goals.
Are the tutors safe and background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is identity and background-checked before they can teach on our platform. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How does online tutoring actually work?
Our online classroom is designed to be as engaging as being in the same room. It includes a live video feed, an interactive whiteboard for working through problems together, and a function for sharing documents like essays or practice papers. It’s simple, secure, and effective.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and level of expertise. Each tutor sets their own hourly rate, which is clearly displayed on their profile. There are no hidden fees, so you can easily find a brilliant tutor that fits your budget.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's development. The biggest sign, however, is often the growth in your child's own confidence as they start to master topics they once found difficult. This is a key focus for our tutors.
My child needs help with their GCSEs. Can you help with that?
Yes. We have a huge number of tutors who specialise in GCSE English Language and Literature. They can help your child get to grips with everything from analysing 'Macbeth' to perfecting their creative writing. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade, and we can help improve GCSE results by up to two grades.
Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also offer lessons for a huge range of other interests. From learning to play the guitar or code in Python to developing public speaking skills, there's a tutor for almost any goal.
How long is a typical lesson?
Most lessons are one hour long, as this gives enough time to cover a topic in depth without your child losing focus. However, you can discuss your needs directly with your tutor, as many are flexible and can arrange sessions of different lengths to suit you.
Why should I choose Tutorful?
Parents trust us to help their children succeed. With over 4,100 reviews giving us a 4.6-star rating, we're proud to have helped more than 200,000 students. We focus on matching your child with a high-quality, vetted tutor who can provide personalised, one-to-one support to help them achieve their goals.
