Ben has been a great tutor for my 16 year old doing his English GCSEs. Ben's tuition has improved my son's grade from a 4 up to between a 5-8, depending on the topic, in just a few months. He has also hugely improved his confidence, and his writing ability in other subjects such as History has improved as well. Ben has a relaxed, respectful and friendly approach that my son has really gotten on with, and he is enjoying feeling more confident for his English Language and Literature exams this year.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is aiming for a competitive A-Level course. Can a tutor help with the specific entry requirements?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors have extensive experience helping students secure places on competitive A-Level courses. They can focus on achieving the specific GCSE grades your child needs, like a 7 or above in English, and build the analytical and writing skills that will help them excel once they get there.
We're considering universities like Sussex or Bristol. Can a tutor help my child with more than just their GCSEs?
Yes. Our tutors can provide support that goes beyond the curriculum. They can help your child develop advanced critical thinking skills, explore wider reading, and even offer guidance on personal statement writing for university applications, giving them a stronger profile when applying to sought-after universities.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and filter by experience and price. You can also message tutors before booking to discuss your child's needs. It's all about finding someone your child will feel comfortable and confident with.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for building confidence. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your 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.
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, so you can find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
How can I be sure the tutors are safe?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and has to go through a rigorous application process. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident your child is in safe hands.
How does online tutoring actually work?
Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It’s a secure and engaging way for your child to learn from the comfort of home.
Can a tutor help if my child has lost confidence in English?
Definitely. One of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring is building confidence. A great tutor provides a safe space for your child to ask questions without fear of being judged, helping them to rebuild their self-belief at their own pace.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum! From learning to play the guitar or speak a new language to mastering skills like coding or public speaking, you can find expert tutors to help your child explore their passions.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find a weekly one-hour session works best, especially in the run-up to exams. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange lessons with your tutor as often as you feel your child needs them.
How do I pay for lessons?
Payments are simple and secure. You add your card details to your account, and payment is taken automatically 24 hours after each lesson is completed. You'll never have to handle cash or worry about payments.
What if we need to cancel a lesson?
Life happens! You can easily reschedule or cancel lessons through the platform. We just ask that you give your tutor at least 12 hours' notice to avoid being charged for the session.
