Hi, I’m John, I’m 23 and I’m currently studying law at Demontfort University. I have been tutoring now for almost two years mainly in maths from KS1 up to GCSE and have developed the knowledge and skills to be able to tailor my lessons to best suit the student as no one style will work best for everyone.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child hopes to study at Cardiff University. Can a tutor help them secure the A/A* in English they'll need?
Absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in helping students aim for top grades. They can focus on the specific skills needed to excel in the WJEC exams, building the analytical and writing abilities that universities like Cardiff and Swansea look for.
With Gowerton School being so large, how can a tutor provide the individual attention my child is missing?
This is where one-to-one tutoring really helps. In a private online session, the tutor's entire focus is on your child. They can patiently work through topics your child finds difficult, answer questions they might be hesitant to ask in class, and tailor every single lesson to their specific needs.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's a really personal choice. You can read detailed tutor profiles, check their experience with the WJEC curriculum, and see ratings and reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's goals before booking to ensure you find the perfect fit.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can easily filter tutors by price to find an expert who fits your budget. All costs are clearly displayed on their profiles with no hidden fees.
How do online lessons actually work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs: video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents and past papers. It's a simple and effective learning space that they can access from the comfort of home.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is ID and background-checked before they can join Tutorful. We're very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident your child is learning from the best.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We know that the right personal connection is key to learning. 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 feel more confident in English?
Confidence often comes from understanding. When a tutor helps your child break down difficult topics into manageable steps, they start to experience 'I get it!' moments. This success builds on itself, creating a positive cycle that boosts their self-esteem in and out of the classroom.
What experience do your tutors have with the WJEC curriculum?
Many of our tutors are experts in the WJEC curriculum for both English Language and Literature. You can see their specific experience on their profiles and can message them directly to ask how they can help your child with the particular demands of the Welsh exam board.
Can a tutor help with both English Language and English Literature?
Yes, most of our English tutors are equipped to help with both. Whether your child needs to improve their persuasive writing for Language or analyse poetry for Literature, you can find a tutor who covers all the bases.
How quickly can we expect to see improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our data shows that 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. The personalised attention often leads to a boost in confidence and understanding within the first few lessons.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like creative writing?
While we offer fantastic support for academic subjects like English, we also have tutors for a huge range of other skills! You can find experts in everything from creative writing and public speaking to coding and learning a musical instrument.
