Nadiah K
Nadiah is an AMAZING English tutor.
Nadiah is very reliable, organised and efficient, prompting and guiding my son to keep on track outside of sessions aswell. I have had feedback from school after just a few months that the quality of my sons writing has improved significantly and teachers have asked if he has been doing anything different.
My son is also developing more of an interest in the subject which has been really nice to see.

Jeremy B
After the first lesson my son announced “That was amazing Mum, you need to watch the video, he was SUCH a good teacher”. This couldn’t have been more different to previous feedback on our attempts to find an English tutor. I’m delighted that Jeremy is structured in his lessons, but also his tone is very friendly and fun! My 12 year old son has Tourettes and ADHD, and has been quite unwell. It’s also done wonders for my mental health knowing Jeremy is guiding my son through English, after seeing the videos I do not have this skill! 100% recommend him!

Michelle P
Wonderful English Tutor!
Michelle has been an incredible English tutor for our daughter Sarah. She always starts each session with a fun “mind boggle,” which Sarah absolutely loves — it sets such a positive and energising tone for the lesson. From the moment she enters the class, Michelle makes Sarah smile.
Her lessons are interesting, engaging, and thoughtfully planned. Michelle brings a fantastic mix of humour, enthusiasm, and kindness to every session, and it truly shows in Sarah’s enjoyment and progress. She has a wonderful teaching style that keeps Sarah motivated and excited to learn.
We are so grateful for Michelle’s support and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an English tutor who can make learning both effective and fun.
Thank you Michelle.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child goes to The Grove School. Can a tutor help them get into a college in Shrewsbury or Telford?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors are very experienced in helping students meet the entry requirements for competitive post-16 colleges. They can focus on securing the specific GCSE grades needed, like a grade 5 or above in English, to give your child the widest possible choice of A-Level subjects.
We're worried our child might be at a disadvantage applying to universities like Keele or Staffordshire. Can tutoring help?
We understand that concern. A tutor can help level the playing field by building a strong academic foundation and boosting your child's confidence. They'll help develop the analytical and essay-writing skills that universities look for, ensuring your child's application is as strong as it can be.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's all about finding the right fit. You can read 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. Finding someone your child connects with is the first step to success.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own prices, which typically range from £20 to £45 per hour, depending on their experience. You can filter tutors by price to find an expert who fits your family's budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right student-tutor relationship is. 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.
How can a tutor help my child with their GCSE English exams specifically?
Our tutors are brilliant at demystifying GCSEs. They can break down the mark scheme, practice exam-style questions, and help your child understand exactly what examiners are looking for. Whether it's analysing unseen poetry or structuring their creative writing, the tutor will tailor every session to the areas where your child needs the most support.
How do I know the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and has to pass a rigorous application process. We interview every tutor and only accept 1 in 8 who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
How do online lessons actually work?
They take place in our specially designed online classroom. It has video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It’s a really engaging and effective way to learn, and it means your child can get expert help without you needing to travel.
Can a tutor help my child build confidence?
Absolutely. For many parents, this is the most important benefit. One-to-one attention from a patient and encouraging tutor can do wonders for a child's self-belief. Celebrating small wins and mastering tricky topics helps them see what they're truly capable of.
How quickly will we see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our data shows that 90% of students improve by at least one grade with regular tutoring. The biggest change you'll likely see first is in your child's confidence and attitude towards their studies.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like Maths, English, and Science, we also offer a huge range of other skills. So if your child wants to learn guitar, get help with coding, or even learn a new language, we have expert tutors who can help.
What if our family has a really busy schedule?
That's one of the best things about online tutoring. You're not limited to tutors in your immediate area, so you have a much wider choice of available times. You can easily find and schedule lessons that fit around school, clubs, and family commitments.
