It gives your child the communication skills and critical thinking they need to succeed, wherever their path takes them.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is at Ashby School and finds the big classes a bit overwhelming. Can a tutor help?
Absolutely. This is one of the main reasons parents come to us. In a one-to-one setting, your child gets the tutor's full attention. They can ask questions they might be shy about asking in front of 30 other students, and the tutor can go over topics at your child's pace, ensuring they never feel left behind.
We're hoping our child might go to Loughborough or Nottingham. Can a tutor help them build the strong English skills they'll need?
Yes, a tutor can be a great help. They can focus on developing the advanced analytical and essay-writing skills that top universities look for. By building a strong foundation in English at GCSE and A-Level, your child will be much better prepared for the demands of higher education.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can view detailed profiles for each tutor, which include their experience, qualifications, and an introductory video. We recommend reading reviews from other parents and booking a free video chat with a tutor to make sure their teaching style and personality are a good fit for your child before you book a lesson.
How much does an English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which are displayed clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study. You can filter your search by price to find a brilliant tutor who fits your budget.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. 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 do you make sure your tutors are high quality?
We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor is interviewed, has their qualifications checked, and undergoes a background check. We want you to feel completely confident that your child is in safe, expert hands.
My child is worried about their GCSEs. How much can a tutor help?
A tutor can make a huge difference. They provide focused, one-to-one support to target the exact areas your child finds tricky. Studies have shown that our students can improve their GCSE results by up to two grades, which can open up so many more opportunities for them.
Can a tutor help my child with their confidence, not just their grades?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tuition. As your child starts to understand difficult topics and see their grades improve, their self-belief and confidence grow. Our tutors are brilliant at encouraging and motivating students, which has a positive effect on all their studies.
How do online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. It’s easy to use, and all lesson recordings are saved so your child can review them anytime they need a refresher.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most of our students have one lesson a week, as this consistency helps build momentum and knowledge. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange lessons with your tutor at a frequency that works for your child's needs and your family's schedule.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have tutors for all core academic subjects, we also offer a huge range of other skills. From learning to play the guitar or speak a new language to getting help with coding, there's a tutor for almost any interest.
What happens in a typical first lesson?
The first lesson is usually about getting to know your child. The tutor will chat with them about what they enjoy, what they find difficult in English, and what they want to achieve. It's a relaxed session designed to build a good relationship and create a plan for future lessons.
