Ben D
Ben is an amazing tutor, he’s really got my step son who has Asperger’s to engage, lessons are planned and structured, post lesson feedback given which really helps as I can send it over to his mom after his lesson and know what he needs to revise. Definitely a worthwhile investment in my step sons future!

Holly has been tutoring my son in English GCSE for the last half term. He has found the lessons very useful, working in a logical order through the different aspects of the curriculum. Holly is friendly, approachable and encouraging.
My Son has just had his mock exam results and has moved from just hitting an exam grade boundary to being 2 points off the next grade up. We are very pleased at his progress in a short space of time.

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 hopes to go to Cardinal Newman or Hutton Grammar. Can a tutor help them get the GCSE English grade they need?
Absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in helping students aim for specific grades. They can focus on strengthening the exact skills and knowledge needed to turn a good grade into a great one, boosting your child's chances of meeting the entry requirements for competitive A-Level courses.
I'm worried that my child's English skills will hold them back in other A-Levels. Can a tutor help with that?
Yes, this is a common concern we can help with. A strong foundation in English is vital for many essay-based subjects. Tutors can work with your child on transferable skills like critical analysis, structuring arguments, and clear communication, which will benefit them across all their studies.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can read detailed profiles for each tutor, which include their experience, teaching style, and qualifications. Watching their introductory video and reading reviews from other parents is a great way to get a feel for their personality and find the perfect match for your child.
How much does an English tutor in Longridge cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications, but you can set your own budget and filter your search to find a tutor that works for your family. All pricing is shown clearly on each tutor's profile with no hidden costs.
How do you make sure your tutors are safe and professional?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and we interview every applicant to ensure they are passionate and professional. We're very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident your child is in safe hands.
What happens in a typical online English lesson?
Lessons are interactive and tailored to your child's needs. They take place in our online classroom, which has features like a shared whiteboard for analysing texts and video chat. A session might focus on planning an essay, working through past papers, or breaking down a difficult poem together.
What if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is important. That's 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.
My child has lost their confidence in English. Can tutoring help with that?
Definitely. One-to-one tutoring is a fantastic confidence builder. In a supportive, patient environment, your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Celebrating small wins and seeing their own progress is often the key to helping them believe in themselves again.
How long are lessons and how often should we have them?
Most lessons are one hour long, and most students have one session per week. However, it's completely flexible. You can discuss what works best for your child's goals and your family's schedule directly with your chosen tutor.
How can I track my child's progress?
Your tutor will provide regular feedback on how your child is doing. You can also message them at any time to discuss progress and ask questions. Seeing your child's confidence grow and their school work improve is often the clearest sign of success.
Is tutoring only for students who are struggling?
Not at all. Tutoring is for any student who wants to improve. Many parents use Tutorful to help their child push for a higher grade, deepen their understanding of a subject they love, or prepare for important exams like their GCSEs.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something different like coding or a musical instrument?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum! From learning to play the guitar or speak Spanish, to mastering new skills like coding or public speaking, there's a talented tutor for almost any interest.
