Chloe L
Friendly English tutor
I like to base all my lessons around solid scaffolding. This means we would start with what prior knowledge we have, then move onto a solid introduction, then do guided questions and then finally completing work independently. I’m currently coming to the end of my teaching degree. I have worked in the schools however over the last six years I have been a teaching assistant for two of those years, then moved on to covering classes and then moving onto teaching in an unqualified position. I have taught between reception year up to year six. I have a very strong understanding of the national curriculum f...

Sam H
I started working with Sam quite late in the A-Level year, but despite the limited time he put in so much effort and support. He completely rebuilt my confidence in English Language and helped take me from a B to an A — the first A I’d ever achieved in English, and I got it in my actual A-Levels. He had me writing answers every week and always gave incredibly thorough, clear feedback that really helped me improve quickly. I genuinely wouldn’t have achieved my grade without him and can’t recommend him enough.

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 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.
