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.

Harry L
Our son has dyslexia and had taken his GCSE English several times without passing. He was demoralized with the whole process. We had 6 weeks before the next attempt and we were lucky enough to find Harry. He said that in his first lesson with him he had learnt more about exam technique than he had in all of his GCSE lessons. Today he got a grade 5 which seemed impossible before Harry's tutor sessions. Thankyou very much Harry, our family is extremely grateful for your particular teaching skills and supporting our son to success.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is aiming for A-Levels at Exeter College. Can a tutor help with that specific goal?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students bridge the gap between GCSE and A-Level. They can work with your child to strengthen the specific analytical and writing skills needed to meet the entry requirements for competitive colleges like Exeter College and excel once they get there.
We live in Exmouth. How does online tutoring help my child compete with students from top schools like Colyton Grammar?
Online tutoring provides focused, one-to-one attention that can level the playing field. While a classroom teacher manages 30 students, a personal tutor can dedicate every minute to your child's specific needs, plugging knowledge gaps and building confidence so they can perform at their very best, regardless of their school background.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. It’s why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you don't feel the first tutor is the right fit, simply email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
Can tutoring help improve my child's GCSE English grade specifically?
Yes, definitely. Our focused approach is proven to help. In fact, we can help improve your child's GCSE results by up to 2 grades, which can be crucial when aiming for specific college courses.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check ratings and reviews from other parents. We recommend shortlisting a few and sending them a message to discuss your child's specific goals before booking.
How do I know the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked with an enhanced DBS check, and we are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply. You can see their qualifications and experience right on their profile.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence in English?
One-to-one support is a powerful confidence builder. In a safe, encouraging space, your child can ask questions they might be shy to ask in class. Celebrating small wins and making steady progress with a supportive tutor makes a huge difference.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, so prices vary depending on their experience. You can easily filter by price on our search page to find a great English tutor who fits your family's budget.
What happens in an online English lesson?
Lessons take place in our online classroom, with features like an interactive whiteboard. A tutor might help your child break down a difficult poem, plan an essay structure, or work through past papers to prepare for exams. Every lesson is tailored to what your child needs most.
Is tutoring only for academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like English and Maths, we also believe in learning for life. Your child can explore a new passion or skill with tutors for coding, learning the guitar, a new language, and much more.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
Sessions are typically one hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can arrange different session lengths directly with your chosen tutor.
How quickly can we get started?
It’s very straightforward. You can search for tutors, message them, and book your first lesson in just a few clicks. Many tutors can start within a day or two, giving your child the support they need, right when they need it.
