George B
Creative English tutor
IntroductionHello. I’m George, and my aim as a tutor is to help students develop an understanding that lasts through their schoolwork, homework, and exams. I work toward this goal with patience, teaching in a relaxed way and challenging students as their confidence in a topic grows. Approach to lessonsDuring the first lesson, I often ask pupils to attempt some questions independently to gauge their ability. After this, we will work together on the difficult portions of the work, and I may use drawings, real-life situations and metaphors to explain specific rules or principles. My goal is to guide s...

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.

Grace B
My daughter worked with Grace as she wanted to re-take her English Language GCSE to improve her grade. My daughter thought Grace was a fantastic teacher. After her first lesson she said she had learnt more in an hour with her than she had in her previous two years at school! She has a lovely friendly manner and put my daughter at ease straight away. She also puts a lot into the lessons through preparation, marking and generally guiding the learning where it's needed most. As an examiner herself she also has a clear understanding of what students need to work on to succeed. Couldn't recommend her highly enough and whether or not my daughter does improve her grade, I know that the lessons were worthwhile. Thank you Grace!

John M
John has been nothing short of a miracle worker with our Year 9 son. In a matter of a few lessons his confidence in English has really grown. He was previously really disengaged with English & it was a real effort to get him to spend any amount of time on it. Now with John’s encouragement, he actually shows me his English homework & wants to improve, work at it. Highly recommend

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
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. Many tutors offer a free 15-minute chat so you can discuss your child's needs and see if it's a good fit before booking a lesson.
My child is preparing for entrance exams at Altrincham Grammar School. Can a tutor help with this?
Absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in 11+ and entrance exam preparation. You can use our search filters to find tutors with specific experience in helping students with their applications to grammar schools in the Trafford area.
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 way to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors has passed a background check. We also interview every tutor to ensure they have the right experience and passion for teaching.
What if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We know that finding the right personality match is key. 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 much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own rates, and you can see the price per hour clearly on each tutor's profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget.
We live in Hale, but does the tutor need to be local?
No, and that's one of the biggest benefits of online tutoring! Your child can connect with the best English tutors from across the UK, not just those who live nearby. This gives you a much wider choice of experts to find the perfect match.
How can an English tutor help my child build confidence?
A one-to-one setting provides a safe space for your child to ask questions they might be afraid to ask in class. By working at their own pace and celebrating small wins, a tutor can help them overcome learning barriers and feel much more positive about their abilities.
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 skills like coding, playing the guitar, a new language, and much more.
How long is a typical lesson?
Lessons are usually one hour long, which is often the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can always discuss different lesson lengths with your chosen tutor to find what works best for your child.
Can I track my child's progress?
Yes. After each lesson, the tutor will provide feedback on what was covered and how your child is progressing. You can also message your tutor at any time to discuss their learning goals and see how they're getting on.
What if we need to cancel or reschedule a lesson?
Life happens! We have a flexible 24-hour cancellation policy. As long as you give your tutor at least 24 hours' notice, you can cancel or reschedule a lesson without any charge.
