John has been an excellent English IGCSE tutor. He is very organised, enthusiastic and communicates clearly. He quickly built a strong rapport with my daughter, putting her at ease, and she is really enjoying the lessons and getting a lot out of them.

Ben has been a great tutor for my 16 year old doing his English GCSEs. Ben's tuition has improved my son's grade from a 4 up to between a 5-8, depending on the topic, in just a few months. He has also hugely improved his confidence, and his writing ability in other subjects such as History has improved as well. Ben has a relaxed, respectful and friendly approach that my son has really gotten on with, and he is enjoying feeling more confident for his English Language and Literature exams this year. I highly recommend Ben for your child's tuition.

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.
