Building a Strong Foundation in English for Your Child

Strong English skills are the key to unlocking so many doors for your child. It’s not just about analysing quotes from 'Macbeth' or understanding grammar rules; it's about developing clear communication and critical thinking. These are the skills they'll need for every subject, and later on for college, university applications, and their future career. A good grasp of English gives them the confidence to express their ideas, both on paper and in person.

Personalised English Tutoring for Your Child in Crowborough

We know that finding the right person is key. That's why we only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, ensuring they are not just subject experts, but also caring mentors. Your child's tutor will take the time to understand their learning style, pinpointing exactly where they need a bit more help – whether it's building vocabulary for the 11+ or getting to grips with poetry. Every online session is designed entirely around your child's needs. Forget one-size-fits-all lessons. If comprehension is a worry, their tutor can focus on that. If they need to practise exam techniques for the Kent Test, the lesson will be built around it. This targeted approach is why 90% of students improve by at least one grade with us.

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

We're aiming for a grammar school in Tunbridge Wells. Can I find a tutor with Kent Test 11+ experience?

Absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in 11+ preparation and are very familiar with the format of the Kent Test. You can check their profiles for specific experience and message them before booking to discuss your child's goals for grammar school entrance.

My child finds English comprehension tricky. Is this something a tutor can help with for the 11+?

Yes, this is a very common area where tutors can provide support. A one-to-one tutor can work with your child on specific comprehension techniques, from understanding complex texts to building their vocabulary, giving them the tools and confidence they need for their exams.

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

We know that the right fit is important. 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?

You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check their qualifications on their profile. You can also message tutors before booking to ask about their experience. It's all about finding someone your child will feel comfortable with, and with over 4,100+ customer reviews giving us 4.6 stars, you're in safe hands.

How much does an online English tutor cost?

Our tutors set their own prices based on their experience, typically ranging from £25 to £45 per hour. You can see the price clearly on each tutor's profile, so you can find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence in English?

One-to-one attention is a huge confidence booster. When a tutor focuses solely on your child, they can praise their efforts, gently correct mistakes, and celebrate their progress. This personalised support helps them feel more capable and less anxious about their schoolwork.

Are the tutors' backgrounds checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors undergo a background check and we verify their ID. We're very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.

How does online tutoring actually work?

Lessons take place in our specially designed online classroom. It has a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and tools for sharing documents. It’s a safe and engaging space for your child to learn from the comfort of your home.

How often should my child have a lesson?

Most families find that one hour a week works well, but it's completely up to you and your child's needs. You can discuss what's best with your chosen tutor. There are no contracts, so you can book lessons as and when you need them.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or can you help with other skills?

We offer a huge range of subjects and skills! While we have experts in core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, you can also find brilliant tutors for music, languages, coding, and even skills like public speaking.

Can tutoring help with more than just exams?

Definitely. While many parents come to us for exam support, tutoring is also fantastic for building a deeper understanding of a subject, sparking a new interest, or helping a child who has fallen slightly behind to catch up and feel confident in class again.

How do I know if my child is making progress?

Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's progress. You can also message your tutor at any time to ask questions or discuss how things are going. The goal is to work together to support your child's learning journey.
