Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
We're aiming for a place at a competitive grammar school in Sutton or Kingston. Can a tutor help with the 11+ English exam?
Absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in 11+ preparation. They have experience with the specific demands of the entrance exams for schools in the Sutton and Kingston areas, focusing on key skills like advanced comprehension, vocabulary, and creative writing to help your child feel prepared and confident.
My child wants to apply to a Russell Group university. Can a tutor support their A-Level English?
Yes, definitely. We have many specialist A-Level English tutors who are experienced in helping students secure the top grades needed for competitive university courses. They can provide in-depth support with everything from analysing complex texts to honing essay-writing techniques for the A-Level exams.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check ratings from over 4,100 reviews left by parents just like you. Many tutors offer a free 15-minute chat so you can discuss your child's needs and see if it's a good match before booking a lesson.
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 for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
My child finds GCSE English really difficult. Can a tutor really help improve their grade?
Yes, we see fantastic results. Our tailored, one-to-one approach can help your child improve their GCSE English result by up to two grades. A tutor can work on specific areas of weakness, from understanding poetry to structuring essays, helping them achieve the grades they're truly capable of.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident in English?
One-to-one attention from a supportive tutor can work wonders for confidence. When your child has a safe space to ask questions without fear of judgement, they start to see that they *can* understand difficult topics. This positive reinforcement helps them feel more capable and engaged in class.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and has their ID and qualifications verified. We interview every tutor and only accept 1 in 8 who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How much does an online English tutor in Epsom cost?
The cost varies depending on the tutor's experience and the level of study. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, so you can find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or long-term contracts.
How do online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. All they need is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection. It’s simple, secure and effective.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find a weekly session works best to build momentum and reinforce learning. However, the frequency is completely up to you. You might want more frequent lessons leading up to an exam, or you can book ad-hoc sessions whenever your child needs a bit of extra help.
Is tutoring just for academic subjects like English, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like English, Maths and Science, we also offer support in a huge range of other areas! Your child can learn a musical instrument like the guitar, get help with a university degree, or even learn a new skill like coding.
How long does a typical tutoring session last?
Most lessons are one hour long, as this gives enough time to cover a topic in detail without your child losing focus. However, you can arrange different lesson lengths directly with your chosen tutor to fit your child's needs and your family's schedule.
