Nadiah K
Nadiah is an AMAZING English tutor.
Nadiah is very reliable, organised and efficient, prompting and guiding my son to keep on track outside of sessions aswell. I have had feedback from school after just a few months that the quality of my sons writing has improved significantly and teachers have asked if he has been doing anything different.
My son is also developing more of an interest in the subject which has been really nice to see.

Jeremy B
After the first lesson my son announced “That was amazing Mum, you need to watch the video, he was SUCH a good teacher”. This couldn’t have been more different to previous feedback on our attempts to find an English tutor. I’m delighted that Jeremy is structured in his lessons, but also his tone is very friendly and fun! My 12 year old son has Tourettes and ADHD, and has been quite unwell. It’s also done wonders for my mental health knowing Jeremy is guiding my son through English, after seeing the videos I do not have this skill! 100% recommend him!

Michelle P
Wonderful English Tutor!
Michelle has been an incredible English tutor for our daughter Sarah. She always starts each session with a fun “mind boggle,” which Sarah absolutely loves — it sets such a positive and energising tone for the lesson. From the moment she enters the class, Michelle makes Sarah smile.
Her lessons are interesting, engaging, and thoughtfully planned. Michelle brings a fantastic mix of humour, enthusiasm, and kindness to every session, and it truly shows in Sarah’s enjoyment and progress. She has a wonderful teaching style that keeps Sarah motivated and excited to learn.
We are so grateful for Michelle’s support and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an English tutor who can make learning both effective and fun.
Thank you Michelle.

Josh L
Josh has been tutoring my son for several weeks now. When asking my son what he thought of the sessions she shared that the lessons were varied and he makes it interesting and fun, ( My Son is in year 10 - age 14) We were looking for a tutor to help my son with his English as he had a difficult year last year with his teacher and it became a dread and a stress. Having Josh tutoring him has given him more confidence in the subject. He is keen to have the lesson and always comes down afterwards and shares something good about it. He seems to be progressing well at school and I know these sessions can only be helping with that.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is preparing for the Essex 11+ for schools like KEGS or CCHS. Can I find a specialist tutor?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in 11+ preparation and are familiar with the specific requirements of the Essex grammar school entrance exams. You can use our search filters to find tutors with this experience and read their profiles to see how they've helped other children succeed.
We're aiming for Braintree Sixth Form. Can a tutor help with the step up from GCSE to A-Level English?
Definitely. This is a common time for parents to seek extra support. A tutor can help bridge the gap between GCSE and A-Level study, ensuring your child has the foundational skills and confidence needed to tackle the more demanding A-Level English curriculum from day one.
What happens if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We know that the right personal connection is key to successful 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 I choose the best English tutor for my child?
The best place to start is by reading tutor profiles and reviews from other parents. Look for tutors who have experience with your child's specific age group and goals. You can send a message to a few tutors to ask questions before you book, which is a great way to get a feel for their approach.
My child has lost confidence in English. How can a tutor help?
This is one of the most powerful benefits of one-to-one tutoring. In a supportive, patient environment, your child can ask questions without fear of being judged. Tutors can break down tricky topics, celebrate small wins, and adapt their teaching style to rebuild your child's self-belief.
How much do online English tutors cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, typically ranging from £20 to £45, depending on their experience and level of demand. You can see the price clearly on each tutor's profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or extra costs.
How do I know the tutors are safe to work with my child?
Your child's safety is our absolute priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed an identity check and has a valid DBS background check. We are also very selective, only accepting 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, ensuring you get the highest quality support.
Can a tutor help my child with their specific GCSE English exam board?
Yes. Our tutors are experienced with all the major UK exam boards, including AQA, Edexcel, and OCR. They can tailor lessons to the specific texts, question styles, and marking criteria of your child's syllabus to ensure their revision is as effective as possible.
How do the online lessons actually work?
Our online classroom is designed to be simple and engaging. It includes video chat, an interactive whiteboard for sharing notes and diagrams, and the ability to upload documents like essays or past papers. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
Can a tutor help my child write their university personal statement?
Yes, many of our English tutors have extensive experience helping students craft compelling personal statements for their UCAS applications. They can help your child structure their ideas, refine their writing, and present their achievements in the best possible light.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also offer a huge range of other skills. You can find expert tutors for everything from learning a musical instrument like the guitar to practical skills like coding and public speaking.
How often should my child have a lesson?
It's completely flexible and depends on your child's needs. Most families find that a one-hour lesson once a week works well for consistent progress. However, you might choose to have more frequent sessions in the run-up to an important exam. You can discuss the best plan with your chosen tutor.
