My daughter worked with Grace as she wanted to re-take her English Language GCSE to improve her grade. My daughter thought Grace was a fantastic teacher. After her first lesson she said she had learnt more in an hour with her than she had in her previous two years at school! She has a lovely friendly manner and put my daughter at ease straight away. She also puts a lot into the lessons through preparation, marking and generally guiding the learning where it's needed most. As an examiner herself she also has a clear understanding of what students need to work on to succeed. Couldn't recommend her highly enough and whether or not my daughter does improve her grade, I know that the lessons were worthwhile. Thank you Grace!

John M
John has been nothing short of a miracle worker with our Year 9 son. In a matter of a few lessons his confidence in English has really grown. He was previously really disengaged with English & it was a real effort to get him to spend any amount of time on it. Now with John’s encouragement, he actually shows me his English homework & wants to improve, work at it. Highly recommend

I would highly recommend Lee. He has supported my son in increasing his understanding of GCSE poetry, personalising each lesson to meet his needs and gives timely feedback after each lesson. My son is making great progress and I have seen increased confidence since he has started.

Anita S
Anita really helps me with English - especially by going through the mark scheme in greater detail than in class, which is really useful when it comes to improving my essays. She also has helped with improving my analysis, providing me with stronger context and helping me add depth to it. I really recommend her as she is great!

Cerise S
Cerise has been such a lovely and supportive English tutor for Eisa. She really helped him find structure and confidence in his lessons and I could see the difference in how he approached his reading and writing. She always came well prepared with materials and gave clear guidance on what to work on..for example, getting him to read A Christmas Carol and pick out key quotes and themes to discuss together.
Eisa really enjoyed her lessons and found her teaching style easy to follow. She’s been patient, encouraging and genuinely invested in his progress. We’ve really appreciated all her help!

Brilliant English tutors who you’ll really click with.
Our experienced tutors take the time to understand where each student needs to focus and their preferred way of learning. They make a measurable difference – 90% of all students improve by at least one grade.
We're aiming for a grammar school in Newry or Downpatrick. Can a tutor help my child prepare for the Transfer Test?
Absolutely. Many of our English tutors have specific experience helping children prepare for the 11+ and Transfer Tests. They can work with your child to build core comprehension and literacy skills, improve their timing, and boost their confidence ahead of the exam.
My child attends Kilkeel High School. Can a tutor help them achieve top grades in their GCSE English Language?
Yes. Our tutors are experts in the GCSE curriculum and can provide targeted support to help your child secure the best possible grade. They can help with everything from essay structure and textual analysis to exam technique, focusing on the specific areas your child finds most challenging.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles to see their experience, qualifications, and read reviews from other parents. Many tutors offer a short introductory chat to see if they're a good fit before you book. The key is finding someone your child feels comfortable with.
What if we don't click with the first tutor?
We know that the right fit is essential for learning. 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 do I know the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked with an enhanced DBS check. We also personally interview each tutor and verify their qualifications to ensure they are experts in their field. We're very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply.
How much does an online English tutor in Kilkeel cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, so prices vary depending on their experience and level of expertise. You can see each tutor's price per hour clearly on their profile, allowing you to find an expert who fits your family's budget.
How can an English tutor help my child build confidence?
One-to-one tutoring provides a safe and supportive space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By working at their own pace and seeing real progress, they start to believe in their own abilities, which can have a positive impact on their schoolwork and beyond.
What happens in a typical online English lesson?
Lessons take place in our interactive online classroom, which features a whiteboard, video chat, and document sharing. A tutor might review homework, work through tricky concepts like poetry analysis, or practise exam-style questions, always tailoring the session to your child's needs.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have thousands of expert academic tutors, we also offer support in a wide range of other areas. You can find tutors for everything from learning an instrument like the guitar to practical skills like coding and public speaking.
How long are the lessons and how often should my child have them?
Lessons are typically one hour long. Most families find that one session per week is effective, but you can arrange a schedule that works best for your child's needs and your family's routine. You can discuss this directly with your chosen tutor.
Do we need any special equipment for online tutoring?
All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is browser-based, so there's no special software to download.
Can tutoring help if my child has fallen behind in English?
Yes, it's an excellent way to help your child catch up. A tutor can identify the specific gaps in their knowledge and create a plan to fill them, rebuilding their confidence and helping them get back on track with their classmates.
