Adora P
English English, Science, Phonics, SATs
Hi! I’m a fully qualified UK primary teacher with over five years of classroom experience, and I now specialise in 1:1 tutoring for children aged 5–11. I’ve taught every year group from Reception to Year 6 and have helped many children grow in confidence — especially in phonics, maths, reading and SATs preparation.I started tutoring because I’ve seen first-hand how personalised support can unlock a child’s potential. I remember one Year 3 pupil who struggled with writing; by breaking tasks into small steps, using visuals and positive reinforcement, she went from reluctant writer to story-lovin...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

We're aiming for a place at Newham Collegiate Sixth Form (NCS). Can a tutor help my child meet the English entry requirements?

Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students prepare for entry into competitive sixth forms. They can focus on the specific essay writing, textual analysis, and comprehension skills needed to achieve the high GCSE grades required for entry.

My child is preparing for the Redbridge grammar school entrance exams. Do you have tutors experienced with this?

Yes. You can find tutors who specialise in 11+ and grammar school entrance exams. They are familiar with the format and demands of the English papers for schools in the Redbridge consortium and can help your child build the confidence and skills needed.

How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?

The best way is to look at their profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality. You can also message tutors for free before booking to ask about their experience with the specific areas your child needs help with, like GCSE exam preparation.

What is the 'First Lesson Guarantee'?

We want to make sure you find the perfect match. If, for any reason, you don't get on with your first tutor, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.

How can an online tutor help my child feel more confident?

One-to-one attention in a safe space works wonders for confidence. Your child can ask questions they might be too shy to ask in a classroom, and the tutor can praise their progress and gently correct mistakes, helping them feel capable and motivated.

How much does online English tutoring cost in Forest Gate?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and level of study. Tutors set their own rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles, so you can find an experienced tutor who fits your family's budget.

Are the tutors' backgrounds checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed a background check and has had their ID and qualifications verified. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply.

How does online tutoring actually work?

It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer, a webcam, and a stable internet connection.

How quickly will I see an improvement in my child's grades?

Every child learns at their own pace, but our data shows that 90% of students improve by at least one grade with regular tutoring. The focused, one-to-one support helps them make progress much faster than they would in a classroom alone.

Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

While we offer fantastic support for academic subjects from Primary to A-Level, we also have tutors for a huge range of other skills. Your child could learn to code in Python, play the guitar, or even pick up a new language.

What if my child has a specific learning need, like dyslexia?

Many of our tutors have experience and qualifications in supporting students with specific learning needs. You can use the filters on the search page to find tutors with this experience or message them directly to ask about their approach.

What are the benefits of one-to-one tutoring over a group class?

With one-to-one tutoring, the entire lesson is tailored to your child's individual needs and pace. There's no pressure to keep up with others, and the tutor can focus entirely on the topics your child finds most challenging, making each session incredibly effective.
