Find the Right Online English Tutor in Glenrothes For Your Child

Watching your child tackle their National 5 English can be tough, especially when you know how much rests on getting a good grade.

Finding a private English tutor can feel like a big step, but it’s simply about giving your child the dedicated, one-to-one support they need to build their confidence. With a friendly expert by their side, they can get to grips with the parts of the curriculum they find tricky and start to feel positive about their learning again.

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child goes to Auchmuty High. Can I find a tutor familiar with the National 5 English course?

Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in teaching the Scottish SQA curriculum. You can view each tutor's profile to see their specific experience and even message them before booking to ensure they're the right fit for your child's needs.

Can a tutor help my child with their personal statement for applying to universities like St Andrews or Dundee?

Yes. A skilled English tutor can be a great help with university applications. They can guide your child in structuring their thoughts, polishing their writing, and making sure their personal statement truly stands out.

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

It's all about finding the right personality and teaching style. You can read reviews from other parents, watch introductory videos, and message tutors for free to discuss your child's goals. Finding someone your child connects with is the first step to success.

How much does an online English tutor cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications, but you can easily filter your search to find someone who fits your budget. All pricing is shown clearly on each tutor's profile, so there are no hidden costs.

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

We want to make sure you find the perfect match, which is why we have a 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 tutoring help my child's confidence?

One-to-one tutoring creates a safe space for your child to ask questions without feeling embarrassed. When a tutor tailors lessons to their pace and celebrates their small wins, it can transform how they feel about a subject, building their self-belief week by week.

Are the tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed a background check before they can start teaching. We are very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply to join us.

How long are the tutoring sessions?

Most lessons are one hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can discuss different session lengths with your tutor to find what works best for your child.

How do I know if my child is making progress?

Our tutors provide regular feedback to help you see the progress your child is making. You can also message your tutor at any time to discuss how things are going and what they'll be focusing on in upcoming lessons.

What happens in the online classroom?

Our online classroom is designed to be interactive and engaging. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard for working through problems together, and a tool for sharing documents. It has everything your child needs to learn effectively.

Do you only offer academic subjects like English?

Not at all! While we have experts for subjects like Maths, Science, and English, we also have tutors who can help your child learn a new skill or hobby, from playing the guitar and learning to code, to mastering a new language.

Can I find a tutor who understands the Scottish Highers curriculum?

Yes. Many of our tutors are very experienced with the SQA system and specialise in helping students prepare for their Highers and Advanced Highers. You can check their profiles for this specific experience.
