Strong English Skills: Opening Doors for Your Child's Future
A good grasp of English is about so much more than passing an exam. It’s the key to thinking critically, communicating ideas clearly, and understanding the world around them. From analysing a tricky poem to structuring a persuasive essay, the skills your child builds in English will help them succeed in every other subject. This foundation is essential for strong applications to college, university, and for building a successful career long after their school days are over.

The Right English Support, Right When Your Child Needs It
The right tutor does more than just teach; they act as a mentor for your child. We help you find that perfect match from our hand-picked tutors—we only accept 1 in 8 who apply. They take the time to understand your child's unique learning style, their strengths, and where they need a bit more support, creating a positive space where they feel comfortable asking questions. Every one-to-one lesson is built entirely around your child's needs. If the goal is mastering verbal reasoning for the 11+, that's the focus. If they need to get to grips with analysing quotes from 'Macbeth' for their GCSEs, the session will tackle exactly that. This personalised approach means your child makes real, noticeable progress in the areas that matter most. Because tutoring is online, it fits easily around your family's life. There’s no rushing to appointments or extra travel to worry about. You can schedule lessons for whenever works best for you and your child, whether it's after school or on a weekend, all from the comfort of your own home.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
We're preparing for the 11+ for Gloucester grammar schools like The Crypt. Can we find a specialist tutor?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in 11+ preparation and have experience helping children build the specific vocabulary, comprehension, and verbal reasoning skills needed for grammar school entrance exams in the Gloucester area. You can check their profiles for this specific experience.
My child is considering the University of Gloucestershire. Can a tutor help with A-Level English and their personal statement?
Definitely. Our A-Level English tutors can provide fantastic support, not just with course content and exam technique, but also with crafting a compelling personal statement for their UCAS application. This can make a real difference in helping them secure a place at their chosen university.
What if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
Your peace of mind is our priority. We have a First Lesson Guarantee, which means 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 I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check each tutor's qualifications and experience on their profile. We recommend messaging a few to find someone your child will connect with before booking your first session.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
One-to-one support creates a safe space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By working at their pace and celebrating small wins, a tutor helps them see their own progress, which is a huge confidence booster.
How do I know the tutors are safe to work with my child?
We take safety very seriously. Every tutor on our platform has passed an ID check and has a valid DBS certificate. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How much does an online English tutor in Gloucester cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the level of study. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles, so you can find an experienced tutor that fits your family's budget.
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 space to share documents. It's designed to be simple and engaging, allowing your child and their tutor to focus on learning.
What kind of results can we expect?
While every child's journey is different, we're proud that 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. Our goal is to help your child feel more confident and capable in their studies, which naturally leads to better results.
Is tutoring just for school subjects like English, or can my child learn other skills?
We offer tutoring for a huge range of interests, not just academic subjects. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or even learn a new language, you can find a friendly, expert tutor to help them explore their passions.
How long will my child need a tutor for?
This is completely up to you and depends on your child's goals. Some parents book a few sessions to prepare for a specific exam, while others arrange regular weekly lessons for ongoing support throughout the school year. You are always in control.
How do I pay for lessons?
Paying for lessons is simple and secure. You add your payment details to your account, and we handle the payments automatically after each lesson is completed. You'll never need to deal with cash or awkward payment conversations with your tutor.
