Navina T
Experienced English Tutor
Hi! I’m Navina, a now 3rd year medical student at the Hull York Medical School. I have a real passion for tutoring (started off with my younger siblings at first so really, no question is silly!!) I’ve tutored students from younger years namely during A Levels where concepts tend to get tricky and I’ve been doing this for 4 years. I became even more involved in tutoring during my gap year before Medical School. And, Medicine, is all about explaining what can be difficult concepts, to patients in a way they can understand so I’ve got a wealth of experience when it comes to simplifying difficult topics....

Megan G
Megan is a wonderful tutor!
My son has really enjoyed the sessions with her and she adapts them to ensure he is fully understanding the teaching.
Megan provides an overview of feedback after to each session which allows me to understand what she has covered in the session and how to future support my son.
I cannot recommend her enough!!

Harry L
Our son has dyslexia and had taken his GCSE English several times without passing. He was demoralized with the whole process. We had 6 weeks before the next attempt and we were lucky enough to find Harry. He said that in his first lesson with him he had learnt more about exam technique than he had in all of his GCSE lessons. Today he got a grade 5 which seemed impossible before Harry's tutor sessions. Thankyou very much Harry, our family is extremely grateful for your particular teaching skills and supporting our son to success.

I would recommend Phil to anyone. He taught GCSE English Language to my son, helping him achieve a good grade and more importantly building his confidence and skills. Phil was kind, supportive and explained things very clearly and he always left useful feedback.

Hi Myles,
I just wanted to send you a heartfelt thank-you for the English lessons you gave my son. After only three sessions with you, he managed to pass — and we couldn’t be happier! He really enjoyed your lessons and said you made everything easy to understand and enjoyable.I truly appreciate the time, patience, and encouragement you gave him. It’s made a huge difference to his confidence and attitude toward English. Thanks again for all your help — we’re both very grateful!

Amazing tutor! I went from a weak grade 3 in English Language to being just one mark off a 6. Lessons were clear, supportive, and really boosted my confidence. I couldn’t have done it without their help and would 100% recommend.

Ameela R
Ameena tutored our son for an English language retake and he got an 8! He went up 3 grades from a 5. Her tutoring was focussed and responsive and she did it all over about 7 weeks. Could not ask for more. Thank you so much Ameena!

Sam H
I started working with Sam quite late in the A-Level year, but despite the limited time he put in so much effort and support. He completely rebuilt my confidence in English Language and helped take me from a B to an A — the first A I’d ever achieved in English, and I got it in my actual A-Levels. He had me writing answers every week and always gave incredibly thorough, clear feedback that really helped me improve quickly. I genuinely wouldn’t have achieved my grade without him and can’t recommend him enough.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
We're preparing for the 11+ for grammar schools in Sutton and Kingston. Can a tutor help?
Absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in 11+ preparation. They can help your child build confidence in key areas like comprehension and creative writing, as well as develop effective exam techniques to help them feel ready and calm on the day.
My child attends a local Colliers Wood school. Can a tutor help them get ahead?
Yes. A personal tutor can work alongside your child's schoolwork to reinforce what they're learning in class. They can help fill any knowledge gaps, challenge your child in areas where they excel, and build a solid foundation for achieving top grades at GCSE and beyond.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. 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.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something like creative writing as a hobby?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we cover all core academic areas, we also have brilliant tutors who can help your child explore a passion, like learning guitar, coding in Python, or developing their creative writing skills just for the fun of it.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific goals – whether it's for the 11+ or GCSEs – to find the perfect match for their personality and learning needs.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study. This means you can find an excellent, affordable tutor who fits your budget, with no hidden fees.
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 space to share documents. It's a simple, secure, and engaging way for your child to learn from the comfort of home.
How can I be sure the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. We personally interview every tutor and all of them must have a valid DBS check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident your child is learning from the best.
How long does it take to see an improvement in my child's work?
Every child learns at their own pace, but regular, focused sessions can make a big difference quickly. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence after just a few lessons. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one hour-long lesson per week is ideal for consistent progress without feeling overwhelming. However, it's completely flexible. You can discuss what works best for your child and your family's schedule directly with your chosen tutor.
Can tutoring help my child with their confidence, not just their grades?
Definitely. For many children, confidence is the biggest barrier to success. A great tutor provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without fear of judgement, helping them to believe in their own abilities. This boost in self-esteem often has a positive impact on all their subjects.
What happens in a typical English lesson?
Every lesson is different because it's tailored to your child. A session might focus on planning a GCSE essay, practising comprehension questions for an upcoming test, or working on spelling and grammar. Your tutor will focus on the areas where your child needs the most support to make real progress.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
If things aren’t right with your first lesson just let us know. We’ll pay for
your next lesson with a new tutor – and even help you find them.
