Welcome to my profile. I'm an experienced online tutor and examiner, who has been teaching English Language & Literature and Religious Studies online since 2013. I am a fully qualified teacher with a Post-Graduate Certificate in Education.While I am a passionate tutor of each of these two subjects individually, more importantly I feel that my experience in each subject contributes something to the other. For example, my knowledge of Biblical and Greek mythological references from my study of world religions is often really useful when interpreting certain texts by Shakespeare or other non-contemporary...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child attends a local school like Eggar's or Amery Hill. Can we find a tutor familiar with the GCSE curriculum they follow?

Yes, absolutely. Many of our English tutors have extensive experience with the AQA, Edexcel, and OCR exam boards used in UK schools. You can view each tutor's profile to see their specific experience and even message them before booking to ensure they're the perfect fit for your child's needs.

We're worried about the step up to A-Levels at a competitive sixth form. Can a tutor help with that transition?

This is a very common reason parents seek our support. Our tutors are brilliant at bridging the gap between GCSE and A-Level English, helping your child develop the deeper analytical and independent study skills required for success at a more advanced level.

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

You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. You can also message tutors for free to discuss your child's goals before you book a lesson.

What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. 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 do online lessons work?

Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. It's a simple, secure, and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of home.

Are the tutors background-checked?

Yes. Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed a background check and has had their ID verified before they can start teaching.

How much does online English tutoring cost?

Prices vary as tutors set their own rates based on their experience. You can easily filter tutors by price to find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts – you simply pay as you go for the lessons you book.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence in English?

One-to-one tuition provides a safe space for your child to ask questions without the pressure of a full classroom. By working at their pace and celebrating small wins, tutors help build your child's self-belief, which often has a positive impact on their other subjects too.

Can a tutor help with both English Language and English Literature?

Definitely. Many of our English tutors are experts in both and can create a learning plan that covers everything your child needs, from analysing poetry and novels for Literature to mastering grammar and persuasive writing for Language.

How quickly can we expect to see results?

Every child learns at a different pace, but consistent, tailored support makes a real difference. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence and engagement within just a few sessions. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or can you help with other skills?

We have tutors for a huge range of subjects and skills! Alongside core academics like Maths and Science, your child can learn skills like coding, playing the guitar, public speaking, or a new language.

What makes Tutorful different from other tutoring services?

We focus on finding the perfect match for your child. With our strict vetting process (we only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply) and reviews from over 4,100 customers, you can feel confident you're choosing from the very best. We're proud to have a 4.6-star rating and to have helped over 200,000 students find their ideal tutor.
