These skills don't just help them pass exams – in fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade – they build a foundation for higher education and beyond. Strong communication and analytical thinking are skills every university and employer looks for.

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. By understanding how your child learns best, they can tailor their approach, making tricky topics like grammar rules or Shakespearean language feel much more manageable. 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. Finding the right support shouldn't add more stress to your family's busy schedule. With online tutoring, you can connect with the perfect English tutor from the comfort of your home, at a time that works for you.

Lee N
Lee has been a great tutor for our 15-year-old son, Leo. He’s really helped him with structuring his essays and breaking things down in a way that makes it much easier for Leo to understand and apply in his school work.
What’s made the biggest difference though is Lee himself. He has a really great personality and a relaxed way of teaching that puts Leo at ease straight away. Leo feels comfortable being himself in the sessions, which means he’s much more open to asking questions and having a go.
Since starting with Lee, Leo’s confidence with English has grown a lot and he’s actually started enjoying the subject again. The support and encouragement Lee gives has been really valuable for him in preparation for his GCSE's.

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.

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.
How can tutoring help with my child's GCSE English results?
Our tutors can provide focused support to help your child achieve their best. They can work on everything from understanding set texts and poetry to mastering exam technique and time management. We know this approach works, as it can help improve a child's GCSE results by up to two grades.

Our online classroom is designed to be simple and effective. It includes video chat, an interactive whiteboard for sharing notes and examples, and a space to upload documents like essays or practice papers. It’s a secure and focused environment for learning.
How do you make sure the tutors are safe and qualified?
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?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match for your child. 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.
