Kirsty M
Friendly English tutor
Hi! I'm Kirsty, a published professional German-English and Portuguese-English translator. I have a great enthusiasm for all things Languages and Academia and I hope that my enthusiasm will rub off on you or your child. I have experience teaching English as a Second Language for six months, as well as working with autistic kids and teaching them about sailing through my partner's charity Autism on the Water, which I have been a part of for over a year now. I was also a 'Buddy' to help out other kids for two years when I was still in school myself and tutored children in Speech and Drama for three...

Holly E
Holly has been tutoring my son in English GCSE for the last half term. He has found the lessons very useful, working in a logical order through the different aspects of the curriculum. Holly is friendly, approachable and encouraging.
My Son has just had his mock exam results and has moved from just hitting an exam grade boundary to being 2 points off the next grade up. We are very pleased at his progress in a short space of time.

Mamun A
My son is really improving since starting lessons with Mamun. From the start of the lesson getting almost all questions wrong to by the end completely understanding it all. Tested him a few days later and he got almost every question right without any help at all he remembered all the punctuation in all questions, shocked how much he's improved from just one lesson on it! Mamun's teaching is brilliant and it really seems to stick in my sons head. Also my son is very fussy with his ASD/ADHD and is often open about his feelings towards people, especially new people most often than not he will say he doesn't like this person because of this or that, but he said he likes his tutor and wants to do more lessons which is brilliant. Mamun is always on time, very patient and explains thoroughly, he gives brilliant feedback afterwards too. Highly recommend this tutor and I'm glad I chose him rather than someone else.

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
My child is worried their Higher English essays aren't strong enough for universities like Edinburgh or Glasgow. Can a tutor help?
Absolutely. This is a very common concern and it's exactly where a specialist tutor can help. They can work with your child to deconstruct essay questions, develop stronger arguments, and refine their writing style to meet the high standards expected by top universities.
We live in a remote part of the Highlands. Does online tutoring really work as well as in-person?
Yes, and many families find it works even better. Our online classroom has interactive tools like a whiteboard that make lessons engaging. Plus, it removes the stress of travel and gives your child access to a much wider choice of expert tutors than might be available locally.
How do I pick the right English tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and read reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs before booking. Finding someone your child connects with is the most important first step.
What if my child doesn't click with their first English tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for success. 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 can I be sure the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and must pass a rigorous application process. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident your child is learning from a trusted and experienced professional.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. This transparency allows you to find an excellent tutor who also fits your family's budget.
My child lacks confidence in English. Can a tutor help with that?
Yes. One of the greatest benefits of one-to-one tuition is seeing a child's confidence grow. In a supportive, patient environment, your child can ask questions they might not ask in class, helping them to feel much more capable and positive about the subject.
How do the online lessons work?
Our online classroom is simple to use. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. The classroom has a video chat function and an interactive whiteboard to make learning collaborative and effective.
Can a tutor help with specific texts, like Shakespeare or modern poetry?
Definitely. Many of our English tutors are specialists in particular areas of the curriculum. Whether it's getting to grips with 'Macbeth' or understanding the nuances of Carol Ann Duffy's poetry, you can find a tutor with the right expertise to support your child.
How quickly can we expect to see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our data shows that 90% of students improve by at least one grade. The biggest change parents often notice first is a boost in their child's confidence and a more positive attitude towards their studies.
What if we need to change or cancel a lesson?
Life is busy, we get it. You can easily manage your schedule through the platform. We have a 24-hour cancellation policy, which gives you the flexibility to reschedule lessons when you need to, without any hassle.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we offer fantastic support for academic subjects from the 11+ to degree level, we also have tutors for a huge range of other skills. Your child could learn anything from coding and Python to playing the guitar or speaking a new language.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
If things aren’t right with your first lesson just let us know. We’ll pay for
your next lesson with a new tutor – and even help you find them.
