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.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child with the specific requirements for East Sussex College?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors have extensive experience helping students meet the entry requirements for popular colleges like East Sussex College. They can focus on achieving the Grade 6 or 7 in GCSE English that your child needs for their chosen A-Level courses.
My child attends Hailsham Community College. Can a tutor tailor lessons to their curriculum?
Yes, that's one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. Tutors will work with your child's specific curriculum and exam board to ensure the lessons directly support what they're learning in school, helping them feel more confident in the classroom.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
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 support in a huge range of other areas. Your child can learn everything from coding and playing the guitar to a new language. There's something for every interest!
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. You can also message tutors before booking to discuss your child's needs and make sure it's a good match.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or long-term commitments.
How does the online classroom work?
Our online classroom is simple to use and has everything your child needs for a great lesson. It includes video chat, an interactive whiteboard for working through problems together, and a way to share documents like essays or past papers.
How do I know if my child is making progress?
Our tutors provide regular feedback on your child's progress. You can also message your tutor at any time to ask questions or discuss how things are going. The goal is to work in partnership with you to support your child.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed a background check. We are very selective, and only 1 in 8 tutors who apply are accepted to join Tutorful.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
Sometimes, all a child needs is a safe space to ask questions without feeling embarrassed. A tutor provides that patient, one-to-one encouragement, celebrating small wins and breaking down big challenges into manageable steps, which naturally builds their self-belief.
How long are the tutoring sessions?
Lessons are typically one hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to cover a topic in depth without your child losing focus. However, you can discuss different lesson lengths with your chosen tutor.
Do we have to commit to a certain number of lessons?
Not at all. We believe in flexibility. You can book lessons one at a time or set up a regular weekly slot with your tutor. It's completely up to you and what works for your family's schedule and budget.
