Personalised English Support to Help Your Child Thrive
The right tutor does more than just teach; they build a partnership with your child. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you’re choosing from the best. They are experts in the curriculum and take the time to understand how your child learns, adapting their approach to focus on the specific areas where they need the most support, whether that's understanding Shakespeare or sharpening their grammar. Imagine lessons designed entirely around your child's goals. Instead of a one-size-fits-all class, each session focuses on what they need right now. A tutor can spend the whole time breaking down essay feedback from school or practising analysis of unseen texts until it clicks. It’s this focused, personal attention that helps 90% of our students improve by at least one grade, and can even boost GCSE results by up to two grades. With our online platform, you can find the perfect background-checked tutor and fit lessons around your family's busy schedule. There’s no travel, no stress – just effective, one-to-one learning from the comfort of your home. It's why over 200,000 students have found success with us, and why parents have rated us 4.6/5 in over 4,100 reviews.

Hi, I’m John, I’m 23 and I’m currently studying law at Demontfort University. I have been tutoring now for almost two years mainly in maths from KS1 up to GCSE and have developed the knowledge and skills to be able to tailor my lessons to best suit the student as no one style will work best for everyone. For example, some students may benefit from shorter lessons, some may benefit from taking the lessons at a much slower pace, some may prefer to just dive straight into questions and many other factors that we will be able to identify together and use to customise the lesson to best suit the stude...

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.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child attends Y Pant School. Can we find a tutor familiar with the standards expected there?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced teachers and examiners who are very familiar with the high standards of schools like Y Pant and the specifics of the WJEC curriculum. You can view each tutor’s profile to see their experience and find the perfect match for your child's needs.
Can an English tutor help my child with their application for competitive courses at Cardiff University?
Yes, they can be a fantastic help. A strong personal statement is crucial for university applications. An English tutor can help your child structure their thoughts, write persuasively, and showcase their strengths, which is invaluable when applying for competitive courses at institutions like Cardiff University.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's all about finding the right fit for your child's personality and learning style. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message tutors for free before booking. This helps you get a feel for their approach and find someone your child will connect with.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their 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 for any reason, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How can I be sure the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is interviewed by our team and must pass an enhanced DBS background check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, typically starting from around £20 per hour. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and level of demand. You can easily filter by price on our search page to find a great tutor who fits your budget.
How do online lessons work?
They take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It’s a simple and effective way for your child to learn one-to-one with their tutor from the comfort of your home.
My child is really struggling with confidence in English. Can a tutor help?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor creates a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By breaking down tricky topics and celebrating small wins, they can help rebuild your child’s confidence week by week.
How quickly will we see an improvement in my child's grades?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our data shows that 90% of students improve by at least one grade with regular lessons. For GCSE students, this can mean a boost of up to two grades, making a real difference to their future options.
What if our family's schedule is really busy?
That's the great thing about online tutoring. With tutors available from early morning to late evening, seven days a week, you can easily find a time that fits around school, clubs, and family commitments. There's no need to travel, which saves you time too.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
While we have fantastic tutors for all core academic subjects, we also offer support in a wide range of other areas. You can find expert tutors for learning skills like coding, playing the guitar, or even learning a new language.
How do I pay for lessons?
Payments are simple and secure. You add your card details to your account, and payment is taken automatically 24 hours after each lesson is completed. You can track all your lessons and payments easily from your dashboard.
