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 attends a Medway grammar school. Can I find a tutor experienced with the high expectations for GCSE English?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors have specific experience helping students meet the high standards of demanding grammar school curriculums. You can view each tutor's profile to see their qualifications and experience, and even message them beforehand to discuss your child's specific needs and the school's expectations.
We're worried about securing a place in a competitive sixth form in Medway. Can a tutor help with the specific English grade needed?
Yes, a tutor can provide targeted support to help your child aim for the grades required for their desired sixth form. By focusing on weak areas and building both skills and confidence, they can help your child work towards achieving their goals. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.
What if my child doesn't click with their first English tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the perfect match for your child, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can start by using the filters on our search page to narrow down tutors by price, availability, and experience. Reading their profiles and reviews from other parents gives you a great insight into their teaching style. You can also message tutors before booking to ask any specific questions you have.
How much does an online English tutor in Medway cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which are displayed clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and level of demand. This allows you to find a brilliant, qualified tutor that fits within your family's budget.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed a background check before they can start teaching. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How do the online lessons work?
Our online lessons take place in a purpose-built online classroom with video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing. All your child needs is a computer or tablet with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. It's simple, secure, and effective.
Can an English tutor help my child with their confidence, not just their grades?
Definitely. One of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring is the boost in confidence it gives a child. Having a supportive expert guide them in a friendly, low-pressure environment helps them feel more capable and less anxious about their studies, which often leads to better results.
Is Tutorful just for core subjects like English, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have thousands of tutors for academic subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also offer tutoring for a huge range of other skills and hobbies. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or even learn a new language, you can find an expert tutor right here.
How many lessons will my child need?
This is completely flexible and depends on your child's individual goals. Some students have a regular weekly slot to build their skills over time, while others might just book a few sessions to prepare for a specific exam. You can discuss this with your chosen tutor to create a plan that works for you.
How long does it take to see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but the personalised attention of one-to-one tutoring often leads to progress quite quickly. Many parents tell us they see a positive change in their child's confidence and attitude towards a subject within just a few lessons.
What makes Tutorful different from other tutoring services?
We combine the UK's best tutors with an easy-to-use online classroom, all backed by a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 reviews. We focus on finding the perfect match for your child, ensuring they get safe, supportive, and truly personalised learning that fits around your family's life.
