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 hoping to apply to Lakes College. Can a tutor help with that?
Absolutely. Many of our English tutors have experience helping students prepare for further education. They can work with your child on the specific English skills needed for their chosen course, and even help them with personal statements or application essays to make sure they stand out.
We're aiming for a top grade in GCSE English to help with a university application to Lancaster or Cumbria. Can a tutor support this goal?
Yes, definitely. Our tutors are brilliant at stretching students who are aiming high. They can introduce advanced concepts, refine analytical skills, and provide the challenge needed to turn a good grade into a great one, strengthening their university application.
What if we don't click with the first tutor we try?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match for your child. 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 do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and filter by experience and price. Many tutors also offer a free 15-minute chat, which is a great way to see if their personality and teaching style are a good fit for your child before booking a lesson.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can easily filter tutors by price on our website to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts, so you just pay for the lessons you book.
My child has lost all their confidence in English. How can a tutor help?
This is very common, and it's where one-to-one tutoring really shines. A tutor provides a safe, encouraging space for your child to ask questions without fear of judgement. By breaking down topics and celebrating small wins, they help rebuild that self-belief, step by step.
How does the online classroom work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a two-way whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing. It's simple to use and allows your child and their tutor to work through everything from essay plans to analysing poetry together in real-time.
Are your tutors qualified and safe to work with children?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors are background-checked and we interview every single one to ensure they have the right expertise and a passion for teaching. We're proud to accept only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident you're choosing from the best.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one hour-long lesson per week is ideal for steady progress. However, it's completely flexible. You might want more frequent sessions in the run-up to exams, or less frequent ones for general support. You can discuss what's best with your chosen tutor.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can you help with other skills?
We offer a huge range of subjects and skills! Beyond core academic support in subjects like English, Maths, and Science, you can find expert tutors for everything from learning a musical instrument like the guitar to practical skills like coding and public speaking.
How do I know if my child is making progress?
Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's progress. You can also message them directly through the platform to discuss goals and see how they're getting on. Many parents tell us they see a noticeable improvement not just in grades, but in their child's attitude towards learning.
Can a tutor help with specific GCSE exam board requirements?
Yes. Our tutors have experience with all the major exam boards, like AQA, Edexcel, and OCR. They understand the specific requirements of each syllabus, from the set texts to the style of exam questions, and will tailor their lessons accordingly.
