Q: My child is hoping to apply to the University of Bath or Bristol. Can a tutor help with their personal statement?

Yes, many of our English tutors have extensive experience helping students craft compelling personal statements for their UCAS applications. They can help your child articulate their strengths and structure their writing to make a strong impression on competitive universities.

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

It's easy to find the perfect match. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and even message tutors for free before booking. This helps you find someone with the right experience and a personality your child will get on with.

Q: What happens if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

We want to make sure you find the perfect fit, which is 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.

Q: Are all your tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed an enhanced DBS check. We are very selective, only accepting 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.

Q: How much does an online English tutor cost?

Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one session, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might be shy to ask in class. By breaking down difficult topics and celebrating small wins, a tutor can help them feel much more capable and self-assured.

Q: How does online tutoring actually work?

Our online classroom has all the tools your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a microphone, a camera, and a stable internet connection.

Elizabeth A

Elizabeth is awesome! —her love of English is completely infectious and she has been fantastic with my daughter. She pre-plans and tailors each lesson to her student’s needs; her organised approach produces clarity and structure which has drawn out quality writing. We came to her with an obscure book that’s not on the regular curriculum and Elizabeth dived straight into reading it so she could provide complete coverage! We then discovered that Elizabeth has the incredible ability for supporting research projects (EPQ and beyond), enabling our child to work independently and develop their own thinking, without our involvement. Our daughter is incredibly strong in her stem subjects and we wanted to ensure her writing and analysis skills would be equally developed. Elizabeth has provided exactly this— She naturally breaks things down in a way that makes everything manageable while maintaining depth. She draws out real analytical thinking—encouraging my daughter to think more deeply, challenge ideas, and develop her own voice. If you’re looking for a tutor who is enthusiastic, knowledgeable and has great impact, choose Elizabeth!

Georgina has been fantastic throughout my son’s final exam preparation. From the very first lesson, she showed great care and professionalism — always asking what Jason needed and preparing materials accordingly. Her lessons are clear, encouraging and perfectly structured. We couldn’t be happier with the results and have already recommended Georgina to other parents. She is an excellent tutor and we would not hesitate to use her again!
