Cate P
I cannot recommend Cate highly enough. Cate has worked brilliantly with my son, building confidence, developing answer structures, specific and explicit knowledge. The inside track to success that should be given to every pupil. As I said, highly recommended, with absolute confidence. Thank you Cate.

Matthew B
My son hated English and was let down both by his school teacher and another tutor on this platform. Desperate to help my son with his English GCSE I chanced upon Matthew’s profile on Tutorful.
Matthew tutored my son for English language and literature GCSEs- and my son’s confidence in English increased exponentially.
The English GCSE exams are tomorrow and my son is for the first time confident about facing an English exam. He is in the best position that he has ever been in his entire year for English.
Can’t thank Matthew enough for his support. My son commented that he might not miss English as subject but he will miss Matthew as a teacher- because Matthew is one of the best teachers ever.
If you are looking for an English tutor for your child- look no further and I say this in all honesty.

Tilly B
Tilly’s currently tutoring our yr9 son and we couldn’t be happier! After 2 years of struggling with both English and Science and refusing to even contemplate a tutor, he finally asked for help at the beginning of this school year. I’m delighted to say that in the time that Tilly’s been helping him, his grades have vastly improved. She’s been absolutely brilliant with him and he’s not once wanted to skip a lesson, I honestly can’t recommend her highly enough.
