Find an Online English Tutor in Liversedge to Help Your Child Succeed
When you live in an area with fantastic schools like Heckmondwike Grammar, it’s natural to feel the pressure for your child to achieve the very best.

It can be a real worry, but you’re not on your own.
Finding the right one-to-one English tutor can make all the difference. It’s about more than just revision; it’s about giving your child a dedicated expert who can help them build the high-level analytical and essay-writing skills they need to feel confident, stand out, and reach their goals.

Tudor B
Dedicated English tutor
With a combined 10 years' of education experience across two institutions, I have encountered many types of students - some aged 16, some aged 60. All present very unique educational needs, or even sensory needs; at times, it is necessary for me to deliver or reiterate classroom content through British Sign Language (BSL), something I would be more than happy to do with clients here as well. My responsibility as a Learning Link Tutor is to bridge the gap between learner and tutor within the classroom, and academically support the students who need it. Although I only possess a Level 4 teaching...

Josh L
Josh has been tutoring my son for several weeks now. When asking my son what he thought of the sessions she shared that the lessons were varied and he makes it interesting and fun, ( My Son is in year 10 - age 14) We were looking for a tutor to help my son with his English as he had a difficult year last year with his teacher and it became a dread and a stress. Having Josh tutoring him has given him more confidence in the subject. He is keen to have the lesson and always comes down afterwards and shares something good about it. He seems to be progressing well at school and I know these sessions can only be helping with that.

Grace B
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

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is aiming for a top sixth form like Greenhead College. Can a tutor help them get the high GCSE English grades they need?
Absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in helping students move beyond a standard pass to achieve the higher grades needed for competitive sixth forms. They can focus on developing the advanced analytical, critical thinking, and essay-writing skills that examiners are looking for.
We live near Heckmondwike Grammar and the academic standards are high. Can a tutor help my child feel more confident?
Yes, this is one of the main benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A tutor provides a safe, encouraging space for your child to ask questions they might not feel comfortable asking in a classroom. By working at their pace, a tutor can help fill any knowledge gaps and build their confidence week by week.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It’s easy to find the perfect fit on our platform. You can read detailed tutor profiles, check their experience with the GCSE curriculum, and see ratings and reviews from other parents. Many tutors also offer a short introductory chat to make sure they're the right person to help your child.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match, which is 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 Liversedge cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which typically range from £25 to £45, depending on their experience and level of expertise. You can see each tutor's price clearly on their profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It’s very straightforward! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every tutor and all of our tutors must have a valid DBS check before they can teach on our platform. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply.
How quickly will we see an improvement in my child's grades?
Every child learns at a different pace, but consistent, tailored support makes a real difference. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. The biggest change parents often notice first is a boost in their child's confidence and enjoyment of the subject.
Can a tutor help with specific texts like 'Macbeth' or poetry anthologies?
Definitely. Our English tutors are experts in the national curriculum and can provide focused support on specific texts, whether it's understanding Shakespearean language, comparing poems, or structuring an essay on a modern novel.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or guitar?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we have experts in all core academic subjects like English, Maths, and Science, you can also find brilliant tutors for music, languages, coding, and much more.
What makes Tutorful different from other tutoring services?
We're trusted by thousands of families across the UK, with a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 reviews. We focus on matching your child with a hand-picked, background-checked expert who can provide truly personalised, one-to-one support in a way that builds their confidence for the long term.
Do we have to commit to a certain number of lessons?
Not at all. We believe in complete flexibility. You can book lessons one at a time or schedule a regular weekly slot with your chosen tutor. There are no contracts or long-term commitments, so you can find a rhythm that works for your family.
