Marc M
Expert English tutor
Hi there!
My name is Marc and I am 35 years old. I live in Edinburgh and work in the publishing and intellectual property rights industry.
I completed my Higher English back in 2008 and have since studied and used the subject extensively, through school, university and the workplace, briefly working as a journalist several years ago.
I understand how much of a difference some extra time and help spent on a subject outside of a classroom can make, having used a private tutor while at school to make sure I got the Maths grades I needed.
Sometimes, a new concept or an idea is explained...

Ben D
Ben is an amazing tutor, he’s really got my step son who has Asperger’s to engage, lessons are planned and structured, post lesson feedback given which really helps as I can send it over to his mom after his lesson and know what he needs to revise. Definitely a worthwhile investment in my step sons future!

Matthew has been teaching my son since September and he absolutely enjoys the lessons. He explains writing in a way my son can understand, and we’ve already seen a boost in his confidence.
Really friendly, patient, and supportive — we’re very happy with the progress so far. Highly recommend!

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.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child with the specific demands of Scottish National 5 and Higher English?
Absolutely. Many of our English tutors are specialists in the Scottish curriculum. They can provide targeted support for the critical reading and essay writing skills needed to succeed in National 5 and make a confident transition to Higher English.
My child is hoping to apply to the University of Glasgow or Strathclyde. Can a tutor help with their application?
Yes, they can. A strong personal statement is crucial for competitive university courses. An English tutor can help your child structure their thoughts, articulate their ambitions clearly, and craft an application that truly reflects their strengths.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking. It's all about finding a great personality fit.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is for your child's learning. That's why we have a 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.
My child’s confidence is low. Can a tutor really help with that?
Yes. In fact, it's one of the biggest benefits we see. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might be afraid to ask in class. This personalised support helps them overcome hurdles and see that they really can succeed.
How do I know the tutors are safe to work with my child?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor is background-checked and has been through our rigorous application process. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications, but typically range from £20-£50 per hour. Tutors set their own rates, and you can easily filter by price to find someone who fits your budget.
What happens during a typical online English lesson?
Lessons take place in our online classroom, which features a video chat and an interactive whiteboard. A tutor might work with your child on analysing a specific text, planning an essay structure, or practising exam techniques, all tailored to their specific needs.
How do I know if online tutoring is really working?
You'll be able to see the progress for yourself. Tutors provide feedback after each session, and you'll likely notice your child feeling more positive about their schoolwork. With over 4,100 reviews and a 4.6-star rating, parents consistently tell us about the difference it makes.
How often should my child have a tutoring session?
Most families opt for one session per week to build momentum and reinforce learning. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange sessions more or less frequently depending on your child's goals, such as extra support before an exam.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills like guitar or coding?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn a new language, master the guitar, or get started with coding, we have expert tutors who can help them explore their passions.
How quickly can we get started?
You can get started today. Simply search for a tutor, send them a message to check their availability, and you could have your first lesson booked within 24 hours. It's that simple to find the support your child needs.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
