The right tutor will take the time to understand your child’s unique learning style and what makes them tick, creating a supportive space where they feel comfortable asking questions.

This personal approach is why 90% of students improve by at least one grade, and we can even help improve GCSE results by up to two grades. It’s all about turning ‘I can’t do this’ into ‘I understand’. Juggling school runs, clubs, and homework is hard enough. Online tutoring fits around your family's schedule in Hayle. There's no travel involved – just effective, one-to-one learning from the comfort of your own home.

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 goes to Hayle Academy. Can a tutor help them prepare for entry to Truro and Penwith College?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students bridge the gap between GCSE and A-Level. They can focus on the specific essay writing and analytical skills needed to meet the entry requirements and thrive at colleges like Truro and Penwith.
We're thinking ahead to universities like Exeter or Plymouth. Can tutoring now help with that?
Yes, building a strong foundation in English at GCSE is crucial for success in higher education. A tutor can help your child develop the advanced critical thinking and communication skills that top universities like Exeter and Plymouth look for in their applicants.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check ratings from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific goals before booking. It’s all about finding a personality and teaching style that your child connects with.
How much does an English tutor in Hayle cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on experience, so you can find an amazing, background-checked tutor who fits your family's budget.
My child's confidence in English is low. Can a tutor really help with that?
Building confidence is at the heart of what our tutors do. In a one-to-one setting, your child gets a safe space to ask questions without fear of judgement. Celebrating small wins and breaking down tough topics helps them see they are capable, which can transform their attitude towards the subject.
What if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is essential. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your first 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.

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. It’s a simple and effective way to learn from the comfort of home.
Are all the tutors qualified to teach English?
Yes. We take great care in selecting our tutors. We only accept 1 in 8 applicants, and they are all interviewed and background-checked. You can see each tutor's qualifications and experience on their profile, giving you complete peace of mind.
How long are the tutoring sessions and how often should we have them?
Most sessions are an hour long, and many parents find a weekly lesson is a great way to build momentum. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange the frequency and duration that works best for your child and your family's schedule directly with your tutor.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something like creative writing or public speaking?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum! You can find expert tutors for skills like creative writing, public speaking, coding, and even learning a musical instrument. It's a great way to support your child's hobbies and passions.
How quickly can my child start their first lesson?
You can get started very quickly. Many of our tutors can offer a lesson within a few days. Simply find a tutor you like, send them a message to arrange a time, and you can book your first session straight away.
How can I track my child's progress?
Your tutor will provide regular feedback on how your child is doing. We encourage open communication, so you can message your tutor at any time to discuss progress, focus areas, and how you can best support your child's learning at home.
