Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
We're aiming for a Gloucestershire grammar school like Pate's. Can a tutor help with the 11+ English exam?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in 11+ preparation and have experience helping children with the specific requirements of the Gloucestershire grammar school entrance exams, including comprehension, vocabulary, and creative writing.
My child wants to apply to a Russell Group university like Bristol. Can an English tutor help?
Definitely. An experienced A-Level English tutor can be a fantastic mentor, not only for their studies but also for their UCAS application. They can offer expert guidance on structuring and writing a powerful personal statement that stands out.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can read tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few to discuss your child's needs before booking. Finding someone your child connects with is the most important first step.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. With 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 much do online English tutors cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and level of study. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, allowing you to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
Are all the tutors background-checked?

We offer tutoring in a huge range of subjects and skills! Beyond core academics, your child can learn anything from coding and playing the guitar to a new language. It's a great way to support their hobbies and personal development too.

Most families find that one lesson a week is a great starting point for making steady progress. However, you can arrange lessons as often as you like – it's completely flexible and you can discuss the best approach directly with your tutor.
My child is preparing for their GCSEs. Can a tutor really make a difference?
