Focused English Support, When Your Child Needs It Most
The right tutor does more than just teach; they build a real connection with your child.

We handpick the very best tutors from across the UK – only 1 in 8 who apply are accepted – so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands. Every one-to-one lesson is planned around your child's specific goals. If they're finding creative writing for the Kent Test a challenge, the session will focus on that. If they need to get to grips with analysing quotes from 'An Inspector Calls' for their GCSEs, that's what their tutor will cover. This targeted support is why so many students find they make progress so quickly, and why we can help improve GCSE results by up to two grades.

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.

We're aiming for a place at Dartford Grammar or Wilmington Grammar. Can we find a specialist tutor?
Yes. You can use our search filters to find tutors with experience in grammar school entrance exams. Many tutors will mention their expertise in their profile bio. You can also message them before booking to discuss your child's specific goals and your target schools.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
Finding the right fit is simple. You can read detailed tutor profiles, check their qualifications, and see reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking your first session to ensure they are a great match.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and level of demand. You can easily filter by price to find a brilliant tutor who fits your budget.
My child's confidence in English is low. How can a tutor help?
A one-to-one environment is perfect for building confidence. Our tutors create a patient and encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Celebrating small wins and breaking down tough topics helps them see they are capable of making real progress.

Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is ID and background checked before they can teach on our platform. We also have a rigorous selection process, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
How often should my child have a lesson?
This is completely flexible and depends on your child's goals. Some students have a regular weekly session to stay on track, while others might book a few lessons to prepare for a specific exam. You can discuss the best approach with your chosen tutor.
Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we offer fantastic support for academic subjects like English, Maths and Science, we also have tutors for a huge range of other skills. Whether your child wants to learn to code in Python, play the guitar, or speak a new language, you can find an expert tutor to help.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
