Hello, my name is Mark and I've been teaching Computer Science since 2011 and maths since 2022. I'm passionate about teaching others about the subject I have loved since I was 11 years old. What makes me different from other tutors? My brain isn't wired up like a typical computer science teacher, I've had to work hard to master my understanding of the various subject areas. So I know first hand what it is like to feel 'I just don't understand it'.Over the years I've mastered ways in which to deliver even the most trickiest of subject areas, so that you will not only learn new information, but be...

Josh L
Josh has been tutoring my son for several weeks now. When asking my son what he thought of the sessions she shared that the lessons were varied and he makes it interesting and fun, ( My Son is in year 10 - age 14) We were looking for a tutor to help my son with his English as he had a difficult year last year with his teacher and it became a dread and a stress. Having Josh tutoring him has given him more confidence in the subject. He is keen to have the lesson and always comes down afterwards and shares something good about it. He seems to be progressing well at school and I know these sessions can only be helping with that.

Grace B
My daughter worked with Grace as she wanted to re-take her English Language GCSE to improve her grade. My daughter thought Grace was a fantastic teacher. After her first lesson she said she had learnt more in an hour with her than she had in her previous two years at school! She has a lovely friendly manner and put my daughter at ease straight away. She also puts a lot into the lessons through preparation, marking and generally guiding the learning where it's needed most. As an examiner herself she also has a clear understanding of what students need to work on to succeed. Couldn't recommend her highly enough and whether or not my daughter does improve her grade, I know that the lessons were worthwhile. Thank you Grace!

John M
John has been nothing short of a miracle worker with our Year 9 son. In a matter of a few lessons his confidence in English has really grown. He was previously really disengaged with English & it was a real effort to get him to spend any amount of time on it. Now with John’s encouragement, he actually shows me his English homework & wants to improve, work at it. Highly recommend

Brilliant English tutors who you’ll really click with.
Our experienced tutors take the time to understand where each student needs to focus and their preferred way of learning. They make a measurable difference – 90% of all students improve by at least one grade.
We're aiming for top grades in English to compete with students from Cambridge. Can I find a tutor experienced in helping students achieve grades 8-9?
Yes, this is a very common goal for parents who use Tutorful. Many of our English tutors specialise in helping students push for those top GCSE grades. You can check their profiles for experience with specific exam boards and their track record of helping students secure places at competitive sixth forms and universities.
My child attends Neale-Wade Academy. Can a tutor tailor lessons to their specific curriculum?
Absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in supporting students from schools all over the UK. You can share your child's curriculum, specific texts they're studying, or areas their teachers have highlighted, and the tutor will build their lessons around those exact needs.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific goals before booking. This helps you find someone with the right experience and teaching style for your family.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We know that the right fit is everything. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How much does an online English tutor in March cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications, but typically range from £25 to £45 per hour. All pricing is clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, so you can find an expert who fits your budget with no surprises.
How can a tutor help my child with exam technique for their GCSEs?
This is a key area where a tutor can make a huge difference. They can teach your child how to understand what examiners are looking for, how to structure their answers, manage their time effectively in the exam, and how to analyse texts and quotes to hit the top marking bands.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed an identity check and has a valid DBS background check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, ensuring your child is in safe, expert hands.
How do online lessons work?
Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It’s designed to be simple and engaging, allowing your child and their tutor to work together just as they would in person.
Can tutoring help if my child has lost confidence in English?
Definitely. A one-to-one tutor provides a safe, supportive space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By breaking down difficult topics and celebrating small wins, a tutor can help rebuild their self-belief and rediscover a love for the subject.
How long will it take to see an improvement in my child's grades?
Every child learns at their own pace, but regular, focused sessions can make a difference quickly. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence within just a few lessons. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.
Is it just for core subjects like English, or can you help with other skills?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! So while we can certainly help with Maths, Science, and English, your child can also learn skills like coding, a new language, or even how to play the guitar. It's all about supporting their learning journey, whatever that may be.
What makes Tutorful different from other tutoring platforms?
We focus on finding the perfect match for your child. With our careful vetting process and a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 reviews, we're trusted by parents across the UK. We're here to provide the personalised support that helps your child not just learn, but thrive.
