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.

Siobhan L
Siobhan was excellent and I’m really pleased with how the first session went. She was really well prepared and explained things clearly throughout the lesson. She worked patiently with my son and made him feel at ease, which was great to see as he can be quite shy at first. She asked thoughtful questions and encouraged him to share his ideas, helping to build his confidence as the session went on. Overall, it was a very positive and engaging first lesson. Thanks Siobhan!

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.

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.
