Nadiah K
Nadiah is an AMAZING English tutor.
Nadiah is very reliable, organised and efficient, prompting and guiding my son to keep on track outside of sessions aswell. I have had feedback from school after just a few months that the quality of my sons writing has improved significantly and teachers have asked if he has been doing anything different.
My son is also developing more of an interest in the subject which has been really nice to see.

Jeremy B
After the first lesson my son announced “That was amazing Mum, you need to watch the video, he was SUCH a good teacher”. This couldn’t have been more different to previous feedback on our attempts to find an English tutor. I’m delighted that Jeremy is structured in his lessons, but also his tone is very friendly and fun! My 12 year old son has Tourettes and ADHD, and has been quite unwell. It’s also done wonders for my mental health knowing Jeremy is guiding my son through English, after seeing the videos I do not have this skill! 100% recommend him!

Michelle P
Wonderful English Tutor!
Michelle has been an incredible English tutor for our daughter Sarah. She always starts each session with a fun “mind boggle,” which Sarah absolutely loves — it sets such a positive and energising tone for the lesson. From the moment she enters the class, Michelle makes Sarah smile.
Her lessons are interesting, engaging, and thoughtfully planned. Michelle brings a fantastic mix of humour, enthusiasm, and kindness to every session, and it truly shows in Sarah’s enjoyment and progress. She has a wonderful teaching style that keeps Sarah motivated and excited to learn.
We are so grateful for Michelle’s support and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an English tutor who can make learning both effective and fun.
Thank you Michelle.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
We live in Cookham and are aiming for a place at a Buckinghamshire grammar school. Can a tutor help with 11+ English preparation?
Absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in 11+ preparation and are familiar with the requirements for the Buckinghamshire system. They can help your child build confidence in key areas like comprehension, vocabulary, and creative writing, working through practice papers and developing effective exam techniques.
My child is hoping to attend Sir William Borlase's Grammar School. Can I find a tutor with experience helping students get into selective schools?
Yes. You can use our search filters to find tutors with specific experience in entrance exams and helping students prepare for selective schools. You can also read tutor profiles and reviews from other parents to find the perfect match for your child's goals.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
Take a look at tutor profiles to read about their experience, teaching style, and reviews from other parents. You can message them for free before booking to ask any questions and make sure they feel like a good fit for your child's personality and learning needs.
What if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure it's the right fit for your child. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your first tutor for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. This allows you to find an experienced, high-quality tutor that fits your family's budget.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed an enhanced background check. We are also very selective, and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the best.
How do online lessons 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 a simple and effective way to learn one-to-one from the comfort of your home.
How can a tutor help my child if they've lost confidence in English?
Confidence is key to learning. A private tutor provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By breaking down tricky topics and celebrating small wins, a tutor can help rebuild their self-belief, step by step.
Can tutoring help my child with their GCSE English exams?
Yes, definitely. A tutor can provide focused support to help your child master the specific texts and skills needed for their GCSEs. They can help with everything from analysing 'Macbeth' to structuring essays. In fact, we find that our one-to-one support can help students improve their GCSE results by up to two grades.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one lesson a week works well, as it creates a consistent routine for learning. However, the frequency is completely up to you and can be arranged with your tutor to fit your child's needs and your family's schedule.
Is tutoring only for academic subjects like English?
Not at all! While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also have experts who can teach practical skills and hobbies. Your child can learn anything from coding and playing the guitar to a new language.
What results can I expect from tutoring?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our goal is to help them build both skills and confidence. The personalised attention from a tutor often leads to fantastic progress. We're proud that 90% of students who use Tutorful improve by at least one grade, and we have over 4,100 reviews from parents with an average rating of 4.6 stars.
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.
