Experienced English tutor
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...

Welcome to my profile. I'm an experienced online tutor and examiner, who has been teaching English Language & Literature and Religious Studies online since 2013. I am a fully qualified teacher with a Post-Graduate Certificate in Education.While I am a passionate tutor of each of these two subjects individually, more importantly I feel that my experience in each subject contributes something to the other. For example, my knowledge of Biblical and Greek mythological references from my study of world religions is often really useful when interpreting certain texts by Shakespeare or other non-contemporary...

Experienced English Tutor
I am a semi- retired Primary School teacher. I have worked with all age groups in the Primary setting and have a specialised knowledge in the teaching of reading. To keep up to date with the changes in the curriculum I take on some supply work. Over the years I have been tutoring I have helped many pupils reach there full potential.

This cannot be achieved by the big centres offering only one way of learning.I have taught children who struggle to read, increasing reading age dramatically over a short time and have helped children...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is hoping to study A-Levels at Dudley College. Can a tutor help them get the required GCSE English grade?

Absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in helping students secure the grades they need for their next step. They can focus specifically on the GCSE English curriculum, helping your child master key areas to boost their final grade. In fact, our students can improve their GCSE results by up to 2 grades.

We live in Dudley and my child is aiming for a competitive university. Can an English tutor help with this?

Yes. A strong foundation in English is crucial for university applications and study. A tutor can help your child develop the advanced analytical and writing skills needed for A-Levels, personal statements, and eventually, degree-level work at institutions like the University of Birmingham.

How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?

You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking. Finding someone your child connects with is the most important first step.

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

We know how important the right fit 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 an online English tutor cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, so you can find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.

My child's confidence in English is very low. How can a tutor help?

This is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor creates a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By breaking down topics and celebrating small wins, they help rebuild your child's self-belief step-by-step.

How do I know the tutors are safe and qualified?

Your child's safety is our priority. Every tutor is background-checked and must pass an interview process. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the very best.

How do the online lessons work?

Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and a space for sharing documents. It’s a simple and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of home.

What kind of improvement can we really expect?

While every child learns at their own pace, 90% of students who use Tutorful improve by at least one grade. The personalised attention makes a real difference, helping to fill knowledge gaps and build a stronger understanding of the subject.

How often should my child have a lesson?

Most families find that one lesson a week is a great starting point for consistent progress. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange a schedule that works for your child and their tutor, whether that's more frequent sessions before an exam or fortnightly check-ins.

Is tutoring just for academic subjects like English, or can my child learn other skills too?

It's for so much more! While we have experts in all school subjects, you can also find tutors for hobbies and life skills. Whether your child wants to learn guitar, get started with coding, or even learn a new language for fun, we have a tutor who can help.

What happens in the first lesson?

The first session is usually about getting to know your child. The tutor will chat with them about what they find difficult in English, what they enjoy, and what their goals are. It's a relaxed way to build a rapport and create a plan for future lessons.
