The skills your child develops—from analysing a quote in 'Macbeth' to structuring a persuasive essay—are fundamental. They build the communication and critical thinking abilities that universities and employers look for, giving your child a real advantage for the journey ahead.

Ben has been a great tutor for my 16 year old doing his English GCSEs. Ben's tuition has improved my son's grade from a 4 up to between a 5-8, depending on the topic, in just a few months. He has also hugely improved his confidence, and his writing ability in other subjects such as History has improved as well. Ben has a relaxed, respectful and friendly approach that my son has really gotten on with, and he is enjoying feeling more confident for his English Language and Literature exams this year. I highly recommend Ben for your child's tuition.

My child is aiming for a top sixth form in East London like Brampton Manor. Can a tutor help them meet the high English GCSE requirements?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experts in the GCSE English curriculum and have experience helping students secure the top grades (7-9) needed for competitive sixth forms. They can focus on the specific skills required, from exam technique to detailed text analysis, to give your child the best possible chance of success.
English is an additional language in our home. Can a tutor help my child with the specific language analysis needed for English Literature?
Yes, this is a great way to use a tutor. They can provide specialised support, helping your child understand the nuances of literary language, context, and complex themes. This one-to-one attention can be incredibly helpful for building confidence and mastering the specific skills needed for the exam.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can view each tutor's profile to see their experience, qualifications, and reviews from other parents. Many tutors offer a short introductory chat to discuss your child's needs before you book. The key is finding someone your child connects with and who understands their goals.
How much does an online English tutor in East Ham cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and level of study. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, allowing you to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
How can online tutoring help my child feel more confident in English?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one lesson, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might not ask in class. By working at their pace and celebrating small wins, a tutor helps them build skills and self-belief, which makes a huge difference in their schoolwork.
What happens in a typical online lesson?
Lessons take place in our online classroom, which has features like a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing. A tutor might work through a past paper with your child, help them plan an essay, or break down a difficult poem, tailoring the session to whatever your child needs most.
How do you check your tutors are safe to work with children?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors undergoes a thorough background check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, ensuring you can trust the expert you choose.
Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or guitar?
We offer tutors for a huge range of subjects and skills beyond the school curriculum! From learning Python, Spanish, or the guitar to getting help with a university application, you can find an expert to support your child's passions and personal development.
What if my child doesn't get on with their 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 many lessons will my child need?
This is completely up to you and depends on your child's goals. Some parents book a weekly slot to provide consistent support, while others might book a few lessons to prepare for a specific exam. You can discuss this directly with your chosen tutor.
Do I need any special software for online tutoring?
No, all you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. All lessons take place directly in your web browser in our purpose-built online classroom.
Can tutoring help with both English Language and English Literature?
Yes. Most English tutors are experienced in both and can switch between them as needed. You can check their profile bios or ask them directly to ensure they cover the specific areas your child needs help with, from creative writing to Shakespeare.
