Sam H
I started working with Sam quite late in the A-Level year, but despite the limited time he put in so much effort and support. He completely rebuilt my confidence in English Language and helped take me from a B to an A — the first A I’d ever achieved in English, and I got it in my actual A-Levels. He had me writing answers every week and always gave incredibly thorough, clear feedback that really helped me improve quickly. I genuinely wouldn’t have achieved my grade without him and can’t recommend him enough.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is at South Wolds Academy. Can a tutor help them get the grades needed for competitive sixth forms?
Absolutely. Many parents in Keyworth share this goal. Our tutors specialise in helping students build the specific skills and exam techniques needed to secure top GCSE grades. They can work with your child to strengthen weak areas, boost their confidence, and help them perform at their best when it counts.
We're hoping for a place at the University of Nottingham or Loughborough. Can a tutor help beyond GCSEs?
Yes, they can. Many of our English tutors have experience supporting students with A-Level English, university applications, and even writing powerful personal statements. They can help your child develop the advanced analytical and writing skills needed to succeed at the next level.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's a really personal choice. We recommend reading tutor profiles, looking at their experience, and checking reviews from other parents. You can also message tutors for free before booking to ask about their approach and make sure they're a good fit for your child's personality and learning style.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. 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 much does an online English tutor in Keyworth cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates based on their experience and qualifications, so you can find someone who fits your budget. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, with no hidden fees or extra costs.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has undergone a background check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How can tutoring help my child feel more confident?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one session, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might not ask in a busy classroom. As they start to master topics they once found tricky, their self-belief grows, which has a positive impact on all their subjects.
How do online lessons actually work?
Our online classroom is simple to use and has everything your child needs. There's video chat, an interactive whiteboard for solving problems together, and a way to share documents and past papers. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
How can a tutor help my child with GCSE English specifically?
A tutor can make a huge difference. They can focus on the specific exam board your child is studying, work through past papers, and perfect their exam technique. This targeted support is why we can help students improve their GCSE results by up to two grades.
Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or guitar?
It's for so much more! While we have experts for core subjects like English and Maths, we also have tutors for hundreds of other skills. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or learn a new language, you can find a brilliant tutor here.
How long does it take to see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but consistency is key. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence after just a few sessions. Academic improvement builds over time with regular lessons.
What if our family has a really busy schedule?
That's one of the main benefits of online tutoring. You're not limited to tutors in your immediate area, so you have a much wider choice of session times, including evenings and weekends. You can find a brilliant tutor who fits around your family's commitments.
