Experienced English tutor
Hi, I’m John, I’m 23 and I’m currently studying law at Demontfort University. I have been tutoring now for almost two years mainly in maths from KS1 up to GCSE and have developed the knowledge and skills to be able to tailor my lessons to best suit the student as no one style will work best for everyone. For example, some students may benefit from shorter lessons, some may benefit from taking the lessons at a much slower pace, some may prefer to just dive straight into questions and many other factors that we will be able to identify together and use to customise the lesson to best suit the stude...

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
We're aiming for a place at Spalding Grammar or Spalding High School. Can a tutor help with the 11+ English exam?
Absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in 11+ preparation. They can help your child with everything from comprehension and creative writing to exam technique, giving them the confidence they need for the big day. You can filter for 11+ specialists when you search.
My child is thinking about A-Levels and university. Can a tutor help them succeed at GCSE?
Yes, securing a top GCSE English grade is key to keeping their options open. Our tutors can provide targeted support to help improve your child's results by up to 2 grades, strengthening their A-Level prospects and future applications to universities like Lincoln.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and send them a message before you book. It's a great way to get a feel for their teaching style and find someone your child will get on with.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can set a budget and filter your search to find a great tutor who fits your price range. All pricing is clearly shown on each tutor's profile.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure it's the right fit for your child. 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 the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed an enhanced DBS check, and we verify their ID and references before they can start teaching.
How can online tutoring help my child feel more confident?
One-to-one lessons create a safe space for your child to ask questions they might be too shy to ask in class. This personal attention helps them overcome tricky topics, and as their understanding grows, so does their self-belief.
Can a tutor help with specific GCSE texts, like 'Macbeth' or 'An Inspector Calls'?
Definitely. Our tutors can provide expert guidance on specific set texts, helping your child to analyse key quotes, understand themes, and structure their essays effectively to hit the top marks.
What technology do we need for online lessons?
All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is easy to use and has all the tools needed for an interactive lesson, like a shared whiteboard.
How do I know if my child is making progress?
Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's progress. You can also message them at any time to discuss how things are going and what the focus of upcoming lessons will be.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
Most lessons are one hour long, as this gives enough time to cover a topic in depth without your child losing focus. However, you can discuss different lesson lengths with your chosen tutor to find what works best.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects, we also offer support in a wide range of skills. Whether your child wants to learn to code, play the guitar, or speak a new language, you can find an expert tutor on our platform.
