Hi, I’m John, I’m 23 and I’m currently studying law at Demontfort University. I have been tutoring now for almost two years mainly in maths from KS1 up to GCSE and have developed the knowledge and skills to be able to tailor my lessons to best suit the student as no one style will work best for everyone. For example, some students may benefit from shorter lessons, some may benefit from taking the lessons at a much slower pace, some may prefer to just dive straight into questions and many other factors that we will be able to identify together and use to customise the lesson to best suit the stude...

Gearoid C
Gearoid supported my son with GCSE English during a key transition period in Year 11. My son had moved schools and was adjusting to a different GCSE specification, which had left noticeable gaps in his knowledge. Gearoid helped him bridge those gaps methodically and clarified the expectations of the exam board.
From the very first session, there was a shift in confidence. My son came out saying, “So I’m not stupid.” Over time, that developed into him saying he “felt clever.” For a student who can struggle with processing speed and exam anxiety, this was a significant and meaningful change.
Gearoid is calm, professional and thoughtful in his approach. He communicates clearly, is reliable, and genuinely cares about his students’ progress. I am grateful for the role he played in rebuilding both understanding and belief.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child with the specific entry requirements for sixth forms like Canon Slade or Turton School?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students meet the entry requirements for competitive post-16 courses. They can focus on strengthening the analytical and essay-writing skills needed to secure a grade 5 or above in GCSE English, giving your child the best chance of getting a place at their preferred school.
My child is considering the University of Bolton or Manchester. Can a tutor help with their personal statement?
Definitely. While our tutors primarily focus on curriculum subjects, many have extensive experience in guiding students through the UCAS application process. They can help your child structure a compelling personal statement that showcases their strengths and passion for their chosen subject, which is a crucial part of applying to university.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's a really personal choice. We recommend watching tutors' introductory videos, reading their bios, and checking reviews from other parents. You can message tutors for free to ask about their experience with the GCSE curriculum or their approach to building confidence. It's all about finding someone your child will connect with.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We understand that finding the right personality match is key. 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 much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can easily filter tutors by price to find someone who fits your budget. All costs are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, so there are no surprises.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every tutor and all must have a valid DBS check. We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence in English?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might not ask in class. Tutors can break down tricky topics, celebrate small wins, and adapt their teaching style, which helps your child feel capable and much more confident in their abilities.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing tools. Your child can work through past papers, analyse texts, and plan essays with their tutor in real-time, just as they would in person.
How quickly can we find a tutor and start lessons?
You can find and book a tutor very quickly, often starting lessons within a day or two. Our platform makes it easy to see when tutors are available, so you can find a time that fits perfectly with your family's schedule.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Tutors provide feedback after each session, and you can message them at any time to discuss your child's progress. You'll also see it in your child's growing confidence and, of course, in their schoolwork and results. It's a partnership between you, your child, and the tutor.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something like guitar or coding?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum! Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or even learn a new language for fun, you can find expert tutors to help them explore their hobbies and interests.
How long does a typical tutoring session last?
The standard lesson length is one hour, which most students find is the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can discuss different lesson lengths with your chosen tutor to find what works best for your child.
