Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is aiming for a top sixth form in Haringey like Fortismere. Can a tutor help them get the right GCSE English grades?

Absolutely. Our tutors specialise in helping students secure the grades needed for competitive sixth forms. They can focus specifically on the GCSE English Language and Literature curriculum, strengthening essay-writing and analytical skills to help your child meet and exceed the entry requirements.

Can a tutor help with personal statements for competitive London universities like UCL or King's?

Yes, many of our English tutors have extensive experience guiding students through the university application process. They can help your child structure their personal statement, refine their writing, and articulate their ambitions clearly, which is crucial for applications to top universities.

How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?

You can browse tutor profiles to see their experience, qualifications, and read reviews from other parents. We recommend watching their introductory videos and messaging a few to find someone your child will connect with. It's all about finding the right personality fit for your child.

What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

We know how important the right fit is. 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.

Are all your tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has undergone a thorough background check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.

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, allowing you to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.

How does online tutoring actually work?

It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. Your child just needs a laptop or computer with a microphone and internet connection.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence?

Sometimes, a lack of confidence is the biggest hurdle. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might be afraid to ask in class. Tutors provide positive encouragement and celebrate small wins, which can make a huge difference to your child's self-belief.

How can a tutor help specifically with essay-writing skills?

Our English tutors are experts at breaking down essay writing into manageable steps. They can help your child with everything from planning and structuring an argument to improving their vocabulary and mastering complex sentence structures, providing direct, constructive feedback.

How quickly will I see an improvement in my child's results?

Every child learns at their own pace, but our tailored approach is designed for progress. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence after just a few sessions. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.

What happens in a typical one-hour English lesson?

A typical lesson starts with a quick chat about what your child has been doing in school and any specific challenges they're facing. The tutor will then focus the session on that topic, whether it's analysing a poem, planning an essay, or working on grammar, using the interactive whiteboard to explain concepts.

Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

While we have tutors for every academic subject imaginable, we also have experts who can teach practical and creative skills. You can find tutors for coding, learning a musical instrument like the guitar, or even public speaking.
