Kathy F
Creative English tutor
I am a Royal Holloway, University London graduate with a BA and MA, specialising in arts and humanities. I am very keen to help pupils to learn and fully understand what they might not get in a classroom environment. Whilst at school and even at university, I had one-on-one help and I would not have got the grades if it was not for this extra help. That is why I want to help those who may need the extra help to get the grades they want.I did my A levels at a school as opposed to a college and this gave me the experience to work with the lower parts of the school (junior and senior). I would help...

Effective English tutor
Hello my name is Alina, and I’m a dentistry student. I have excellent A levels and GCSE grades being an A* student and have had tutoring experience before with children aged 5-17 years old. My students have always loved my lessons as I make sure that each child understands the lesson or what they have chosen to work on before leaving.My teaching style is unique as rather telling the students what they’re doing today, they themselves would email me a couple of days before telling me they want to do this topic today. This meant that the student has control of their own learning and working on the...

Siobhan L
Siobhan was excellent and I’m really pleased with how the first session went. She was really well prepared and explained things clearly throughout the lesson. She worked patiently with my son and made him feel at ease, which was great to see as he can be quite shy at first. She asked thoughtful questions and encouraged him to share his ideas, helping to build his confidence as the session went on. Overall, it was a very positive and engaging first lesson. Thanks Siobhan!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child has their heart set on Ashton Sixth Form or Xaverian. Can a tutor help them get the GCSE English grade they need?
Absolutely. Many of our English tutors are very experienced with the GCSE curriculum and know what colleges are looking for. They can help your child target the specific skills needed to improve their grade and strengthen their application.
We're thinking ahead to university. How can an English tutor help now?
That's a great way to think. The analytical and essay-writing skills your child develops for GCSE English are the foundation for A-Levels and university study. A tutor can help them build these core skills, which will be invaluable when applying to demanding institutions like the University of Manchester or Manchester Metropolitan.
How do I choose the best English tutor for my child in Denton?
You can browse tutor profiles to see their experience, qualifications, and read reviews from other parents. Many tutors offer a short introductory chat so you can see if they're a good fit for your child's personality and learning style before booking a lesson.
How much does online English tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications, but you can set your own budget and filter your search to find a great tutor in your price range. All pricing is shown clearly on each tutor's profile.
How do I know if my child is making progress?
Our tutors provide regular feedback to help you see how your child is doing. You'll be able to see their confidence grow as they tackle tricky topics, and this is often reflected in their schoolwork and test results. You can message your tutor at any time to discuss progress.
What happens in a typical online lesson?
Lessons take place in our interactive online classroom, which features a whiteboard, video chat, and document sharing. A tutor might work with your child on analysing a poem, planning an essay, or practising exam techniques – every session is tailored to what your child needs most.
How can a tutor help my child if they lack confidence in English?
Confidence is key. A one-to-one tutor creates a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By breaking down difficult topics and celebrating small wins, they help build your child's self-belief step by step.
How many lessons will my child need?
It really depends on your child's individual goals. Some students need a few sessions to prepare for an exam, while others benefit from weekly lessons throughout the school year. You can discuss this with your tutor to create a plan that works for you.
What if we don't get on with the first tutor we choose?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. 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.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors undergo a thorough vetting process, including identity and background checks, before they can join our platform.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or music?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! Beyond core academic subjects, your child can learn anything from coding and guitar to a new language. It's a great way to support their hobbies and personal development too.
My child finds analysing texts like 'An Inspector Calls' really difficult. Can a tutor help with that?
Yes, definitely. This is a common area where students need extra support. A tutor can teach them simple, effective techniques for analysing quotes, understanding themes, and structuring their thoughts into a high-scoring essay.
