Gearoid C
Gearoid supported my son with GCSE English during a key transition period in Year 11. My son had moved schools and was adjusting to a different GCSE specification, which had left noticeable gaps in his knowledge. Gearoid helped him bridge those gaps methodically and clarified the expectations of the exam board.
From the very first session, there was a shift in confidence. My son came out saying, “So I’m not stupid.” Over time, that developed into him saying he “felt clever.” For a student who can struggle with processing speed and exam anxiety, this was a significant and meaningful change.
Gearoid is calm, professional and thoughtful in his approach. He communicates clearly, is reliable, and genuinely cares about his students’ progress. I am grateful for the role he played in rebuilding both understanding and belief.

asked questions

How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's simple to find the perfect match. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and send a message directly to a tutor to discuss your child's needs before booking. This helps you find someone your child will really connect with.
We live in Farnham. Can we find a tutor familiar with the local Surrey school curriculum?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors have extensive experience with the curriculum used in schools across Surrey and the South East. You can check a tutor's profile for their specific experience or send them a message to ask before you book.
How much do online English tutors cost?
Prices for our English tutors vary depending on their experience and qualifications. You can easily filter tutors by price to find someone who fits your family's budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
My child is thinking of applying to the University for the Creative Arts (UCA) in Farnham. Can a tutor help?
Yes, many of our English tutors are experienced in helping students with their UCAS applications, including crafting compelling personal statements. This can be a great way to give your child an extra confidence boost when applying for university.
How do the online lessons actually work?
Our online lessons take place in a purpose-built virtual classroom. It includes an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and a space to share documents. It's a secure and engaging way for your child to learn from the comfort of home.

We want to make sure you find the perfect fit. 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 can an online tutor help my child feel more confident in English?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one session, your child has the tutor's full attention. They can ask questions without feeling embarrassed, work at their own pace, and celebrate small wins, which all helps to build their self-belief.
How do you make sure your tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and we interview every single one to ensure they have the right experience. We're very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply to our platform.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English, or can my child learn other skills?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum! From learning to play the guitar or piano to developing skills in coding and Python, there are tutors available to support your child's hobbies and interests too.
How often should my child have a tutoring session?
Most parents find that a one-hour session per week is ideal for consistent progress. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange sessions as often as you need, whether that's a one-off session for exam prep or more frequent lessons.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Our tutors provide regular feedback to keep you in the loop. You can also message your tutor at any time to discuss your child's progress. Often, the first sign is your child feeling more positive and confident about their English lessons at school.
What equipment do we need for an online lesson?
It's very straightforward. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam and microphone, and a stable internet connection. There's no special software to download as everything runs in your web browser.
