Flora I
Flora is patient and takes the time to ensure my child understands concepts properly before moving on. She always comes well prepared, communicates effectively with my son, and explains things clearly. She also takes time to prepare homework assignments and resource materials to reinforce learning.
She’s easy to reach and is happy to chat with parents about progress and the ways we can support learning at home. My son enjoys her teaching and is happy to add one more lesson a week with Flora. I’d gladly recommend her to others looking for a solid tutor.

Gearoid C
Gearoid supported my son with GCSE English during a key transition period in Year 11. My son had moved schools and was adjusting to a different GCSE specification, which had left noticeable gaps in his knowledge. Gearoid helped him bridge those gaps methodically and clarified the expectations of the exam board.
From the very first session, there was a shift in confidence. My son came out saying, “So I’m not stupid.” Over time, that developed into him saying he “felt clever.” For a student who can struggle with processing speed and exam anxiety, this was a significant and meaningful change.
Gearoid is calm, professional and thoughtful in his approach. He communicates clearly, is reliable, and genuinely cares about his students’ progress. I am grateful for the role he played in rebuilding both understanding and belief.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child with the specific English requirements for getting into Bilborough College?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students meet the entry requirements for competitive colleges. They can focus on the specific GCSE grades and skills your child needs to secure their place for their chosen A-Level subjects.
My child is aiming for a competitive course at the University of Nottingham. Can a tutor help them now at GCSE level?
Definitely. Building strong foundations at GCSE is the first step towards a successful university application. An English tutor can help your child develop the critical thinking and essay writing skills that universities like Nottingham look for, setting them up for success in A-Levels and beyond.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. That's why we have our 'First Lesson Guarantee'. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the right match for your child, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
My child finds analysing unseen texts really difficult. Can a tutor help with that specifically?
Yes, this is a very common area where tutors can help. They can teach your child specific techniques and frameworks for approaching unseen texts, and practise with them until they feel confident tackling them in an exam.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check each tutor's experience. You can also message them before booking to discuss your child's specific needs, like focusing on GCSE essay technique or poetry analysis, to ensure they're a great fit.
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 someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
How can a tutor help my child if they've lost confidence in English?
One-to-one attention from a patient and encouraging tutor can make a huge difference. By working at your child's pace in a safe space, they can build understanding without the pressure of a classroom, which often leads to a big boost in confidence.
Are the tutors safe and background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has been through a rigorous vetting process, which includes an identity check and an enhanced DBS background check.
What happens in an online lesson?
Lessons take place in our specially designed online classroom. It has an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and a space to share documents. It’s a brilliant way for your child to work collaboratively with their tutor on everything from analysing texts to planning essays.
How long are the tutoring sessions and how often should they be?
Most sessions are one hour long, and most families find a weekly session works best to build momentum. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange sessions with your tutor at a frequency that suits your child's needs and your family's schedule.
Do you only offer tutoring for core school subjects?
Not at all! While we have fantastic tutors for subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also have experts who can teach practical skills like coding and music theory, or even help your child learn to play the guitar.
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 your tutor at any time to discuss how things are going. The goal is always to work in partnership with you to support your child's learning.
