Paul M
Excellent English tutor
Maths is pure hell for some. It was for me as a young boy and I thought that because I didn't get the answers right it meant that I was no good.I didn't understand numbers, the vocabulary used for the abstract nature of maths and it left me feeling bereft of confidence. I am glad nowadays maths is taught in a more simpler fashion and I am proof that if maths is accessible in the right way, is fun and more importantly the fear factor is removed then anyone can prosper. That is how I like to approach maths and I feel that it is a fantastic way to enjoy, and dare I say it... love the subject.I am...

My son has just started with Mamun, so far I am very happy. At first, my son was finding it a bit difficult to understand him, but when I expected it to Mamun he was very nice about it, and he did exactly what I wanted.

Flora I
We are absolutely delighted with the English tuition Flora is providing for our son in preparation for his GCSEs. He is really enjoying her lessons and already finding them extremely helpful. Flora listens carefully, offers clear and thoughtful advice, and focuses on strengthening his knowledge in a way that feels supportive and encouraging. Each lesson is very well structured, which has really helped build his confidence.
Although he has only had a few lessons so far, he already feels they will make a real difference and help him focus on exactly what he needs to prioritise for his exams. This is exactly what we hoped Flora would deliver, and we couldn’t be happier with the start she has made.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child goes to Williamwood High. Can a tutor help with the high standards expected there?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in supporting students in highly academic environments. They can help your child manage the workload, deepen their understanding of the SQA curriculum, and build the confidence to excel amongst their peers.
Can a tutor help my child with their personal statement for universities like Glasgow or Edinburgh?
Yes, many of our English tutors are fantastic at this. They can help your child structure their thoughts, articulate their ambitions, and polish their writing to create a personal statement that truly stands out for their university applications.
Can a tutor help specifically with the Higher English critical essay?
Yes. This is a very common area where students need support. A tutor can work one-to-one with your child to break down essay questions, find strong textual evidence, develop a clear line of argument, and refine their writing style to meet the examiners' criteria.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's easy to find the perfect match. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check tutors' qualifications on their profiles. We also recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs before booking a lesson.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We understand that the right fit is crucial for learning. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you don't get on with your first tutor, simply 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?
Tutor prices vary depending on their experience and the level of study. Each tutor sets their own hourly rate, which is clearly displayed on their profile. This transparency allows you to find an experienced tutor who fits your budget.
How does online tutoring actually work?
All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It includes video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents and past papers. It's a secure and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of your home.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors are background-checked and must pass a rigorous vetting process. We only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, ensuring your child learns from a trusted and experienced professional.
How can tutoring help my child build confidence?
One-to-one tutoring provides a safe space for your child to ask questions they might be hesitant to ask in a busy classroom. By working at their own pace and mastering topics they once found tricky, their subject knowledge and self-belief grow together.
How long is a typical lesson and how often should we have one?
Most families find that a one-hour lesson once a week works best, but it's completely flexible. You can arrange session length and frequency directly with your tutor to create a schedule that fits your child's needs and your family's routine.
What kind of results can we expect?
While every child's journey is different, our focus is on building skills and confidence for long-term success. We're proud that 90% of our students improve by at least one grade, and our 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 reviews shows the positive impact our tutors have.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can you help with other skills?
We cover a huge range of subjects and skills! While we have expert tutors for core subjects like English and Maths, you can also find support for learning a musical instrument like the guitar, coding languages like Python, or even a new language for a holiday.
