Ben D
Ben is an amazing tutor, he’s really got my step son who has Asperger’s to engage, lessons are planned and structured, post lesson feedback given which really helps as I can send it over to his mom after his lesson and know what he needs to revise. Definitely a worthwhile investment in my step sons future!

Holly has been tutoring my son in English GCSE for the last half term. He has found the lessons very useful, working in a logical order through the different aspects of the curriculum. Holly is friendly, approachable and encouraging.
My Son has just had his mock exam results and has moved from just hitting an exam grade boundary to being 2 points off the next grade up. We are very pleased at his progress in a short space of time.

Mamun A
My son is really improving since starting lessons with Mamun. From the start of the lesson getting almost all questions wrong to by the end completely understanding it all. Tested him a few days later and he got almost every question right without any help at all he remembered all the punctuation in all questions, shocked how much he's improved from just one lesson on it! Mamun's teaching is brilliant and it really seems to stick in my sons head. Also my son is very fussy with his ASD/ADHD and is often open about his feelings towards people, especially new people most often than not he will say he doesn't like this person because of this or that, but he said he likes his tutor and wants to do more lessons which is brilliant. Mamun is always on time, very patient and explains thoroughly, he gives brilliant feedback afterwards too. Highly recommend this tutor and I'm glad I chose him rather than someone else.

Nadiah is an AMAZING English tutor.
Nadiah is very reliable, organised and efficient, prompting and guiding my son to keep on track outside of sessions aswell. I have had feedback from school after just a few months that the quality of my sons writing has improved significantly and teachers have asked if he has been doing anything different.
My son is also developing more of an interest in the subject which has been really nice to see.

We live in Farnham. Can we find a tutor familiar with the local Surrey school curriculum?

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.

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.

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.
