Josh L
Josh has been tutoring my son for several weeks now. When asking my son what he thought of the sessions she shared that the lessons were varied and he makes it interesting and fun, ( My Son is in year 10 - age 14) We were looking for a tutor to help my son with his English as he had a difficult year last year with his teacher and it became a dread and a stress. Having Josh tutoring him has given him more confidence in the subject. He is keen to have the lesson and always comes down afterwards and shares something good about it. He seems to be progressing well at school and I know these sessions can only be helping with that.

Grace B
My daughter worked with Grace as she wanted to re-take her English Language GCSE to improve her grade. My daughter thought Grace was a fantastic teacher. After her first lesson she said she had learnt more in an hour with her than she had in her previous two years at school! She has a lovely friendly manner and put my daughter at ease straight away. She also puts a lot into the lessons through preparation, marking and generally guiding the learning where it's needed most. As an examiner herself she also has a clear understanding of what students need to work on to succeed. Couldn't recommend her highly enough and whether or not my daughter does improve her grade, I know that the lessons were worthwhile. Thank you Grace!

John M
John has been nothing short of a miracle worker with our Year 9 son. In a matter of a few lessons his confidence in English has really grown. He was previously really disengaged with English & it was a real effort to get him to spend any amount of time on it. Now with John’s encouragement, he actually shows me his English homework & wants to improve, work at it. Highly recommend

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is aiming for a Russell Group university. Can a tutor help strengthen their application?
Absolutely. A top grade in GCSE English is a huge asset. Our tutors can help your child develop the critical analysis and essay-writing skills that top universities look for. This not only helps them achieve the grades they need but also prepares them for writing a standout personal statement for their UCAS application.
With Didcot's focus on science, how can a tutor ensure my child excels in English?
This is a common concern for parents in the area. A dedicated English tutor provides the focused, one-to-one attention that can be hard to find in a busy classroom. They can create a space purely for developing English skills, from literary analysis to creative writing, ensuring it gets the priority it deserves for a well-rounded and competitive university application.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's all about finding the right fit. You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introduction videos, and check ratings from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific goals before booking. This helps you find someone your child will really connect with.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right student-tutor relationship 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.
How much does online English tutoring cost in Didcot?
Our tutors set their own rates, which typically range from £25 to £50 per hour depending on their experience and level of expertise. You can see each tutor's price on their profile, so you can easily find someone who fits your 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 DBS check. We are also very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident your child is in safe, expert hands.
How long does it take to see an improvement in my child's grades?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our tailored, one-to-one approach is designed for progress. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. The biggest change parents often notice first is a boost in their child's confidence, which is a fantastic foundation for academic improvement.
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. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a stable internet connection, a webcam, and a microphone.
Can a tutor help my child with their confidence, not just their grades?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor creates a supportive space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Celebrating small wins and overcoming challenges together can do wonders for their self-esteem.
What happens in a typical English tutoring session?
Sessions are tailored to your child. A lesson might start with reviewing homework, then move on to a specific topic they find tricky, like understanding Shakespearean language or structuring a comparative essay. Tutors use the interactive whiteboard to analyse texts and work through examples together.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also offer a huge range of other skills. Your child could learn anything from coding and Python to playing the guitar or speaking Spanish.
How easy is it to schedule lessons?
It's very simple. You and your tutor can agree on a regular weekly slot, or you can book lessons one at a time, depending on what works for your family. Our platform makes it easy to see your tutor's availability and manage your schedule.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
