Myles M
Myles was a great tutor for my daughter, who was struggling with school. Homeschooling, alongside lessons with Myles, gave her the confidence she needed to pass maths GCSE and get into her chosen college and course :)

Nadiah K
Nadiah is an AMAZING English tutor.
Nadiah is very reliable, organised and efficient, prompting and guiding my son to keep on track outside of sessions aswell. I have had feedback from school after just a few months that the quality of my sons writing has improved significantly and teachers have asked if he has been doing anything different.
My son is also developing more of an interest in the subject which has been really nice to see.

Jeremy B
After the first lesson my son announced “That was amazing Mum, you need to watch the video, he was SUCH a good teacher”. This couldn’t have been more different to previous feedback on our attempts to find an English tutor. I’m delighted that Jeremy is structured in his lessons, but also his tone is very friendly and fun! My 12 year old son has Tourettes and ADHD, and has been quite unwell. It’s also done wonders for my mental health knowing Jeremy is guiding my son through English, after seeing the videos I do not have this skill! 100% recommend him!

Michelle P
Wonderful English Tutor!
Michelle has been an incredible English tutor for our daughter Sarah. She always starts each session with a fun “mind boggle,” which Sarah absolutely loves — it sets such a positive and energising tone for the lesson. From the moment she enters the class, Michelle makes Sarah smile.
Her lessons are interesting, engaging, and thoughtfully planned. Michelle brings a fantastic mix of humour, enthusiasm, and kindness to every session, and it truly shows in Sarah’s enjoyment and progress. She has a wonderful teaching style that keeps Sarah motivated and excited to learn.
We are so grateful for Michelle’s support and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an English tutor who can make learning both effective and fun.
Thank you Michelle.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is preparing for the Gloucestershire 11+. Can I find a tutor with specific experience?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our English tutors have extensive experience helping students prepare for the 11+ exam, focusing on key areas like comprehension, vocabulary, and verbal reasoning. You can view their profiles and even message them beforehand to discuss your child's specific needs.
We're hoping for a place at a school like Marling or Stroud High. Do tutors understand the requirements?
Many tutors specialise in grammar school entrance exams and are familiar with the standards required for selective Gloucestershire schools. They can help your child build the specific skills and exam techniques needed to perform their best and feel confident on the day.
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 introductory videos, and check ratings from other parents. We recommend sending a message to a few tutors to explain your child's goals before booking to ensure you find the perfect partner for their learning journey.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications, but you can easily filter tutors by price to find someone who fits your budget. All pricing is shown clearly on their profiles, so there are no hidden costs.
How can I be sure the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and personally vetted by our team. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident you're choosing from the very best.
My child is worried their GCSE English grades won't be high enough for A-Levels. Can a tutor help?
Yes, this is a very common reason parents seek our help. A tutor can work with your child on specific areas of the English Language and Literature curriculum, from essay writing to textual analysis, to help them secure the grades they need for their chosen A-Level courses. We've seen students improve their GCSE results by up to 2 grades.
What happens in a typical online English lesson?
Lessons take place in our interactive online classroom, which features a whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing. A tutor might work through a tricky piece of poetry, practise exam questions, or help your child plan and structure an essay, all tailored to their individual needs.
What if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. 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 can a tutor help my child if they've lost confidence in English?
Building confidence is at the heart of what our tutors do. Through patient, one-to-one support and celebrating small wins, they create a safe space for your child to ask questions and make mistakes without fear. This positive reinforcement often leads to a renewed enjoyment of the subject.
How quickly will we see results?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our experience shows that consistent, personalised support makes a real difference. Many parents notice a boost in their child's confidence and understanding within just a few sessions. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.
Can a tutor help prepare my child for a Russell Group university like Bristol or Exeter?
Yes. Many of our tutors are graduates from top universities and can provide invaluable support. They can help your child develop the advanced analytical and writing skills needed for A-Level success and guide them on what's expected at a university level.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something like creative writing?
While we cover all academic subjects, we also have brilliant tutors who can help your child explore their passions. You can find experts in everything from creative writing and public speaking to learning a musical instrument or coding.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
If things aren’t right with your first lesson just let us know. We’ll pay for
your next lesson with a new tutor – and even help you find them.
