Hello my name is Alina, and I’m a dentistry student. I have excellent A levels and GCSE grades being an A* student and have had tutoring experience before with children aged 5-17 years old. My students have always loved my lessons as I make sure that each child understands the lesson or what they have chosen to work on before leaving.My teaching style is unique as rather telling the students what they’re doing today, they themselves would email me a couple of days before telling me they want to do this topic today. This meant that the student has control of their own learning and working on the...

I am a Royal Holloway, University London graduate with a BA and MA, specialising in arts and humanities. I am very keen to help pupils to learn and fully understand what they might not get in a classroom environment. Whilst at school and even at university, I had one-on-one help and I would not have got the grades if it was not for this extra help. That is why I want to help those who may need the extra help to get the grades they want.I did my A levels at a school as opposed to a college and this gave me the experience to work with the lower parts of the school (junior and senior).

Gearoid C
Gearoid supported my son with GCSE English during a key transition period in Year 11. My son had moved schools and was adjusting to a different GCSE specification, which had left noticeable gaps in his knowledge. Gearoid helped him bridge those gaps methodically and clarified the expectations of the exam board.
From the very first session, there was a shift in confidence. My son came out saying, “So I’m not stupid.” Over time, that developed into him saying he “felt clever.” For a student who can struggle with processing speed and exam anxiety, this was a significant and meaningful change.
Gearoid is calm, professional and thoughtful in his approach. He communicates clearly, is reliable, and genuinely cares about his students’ progress. I am grateful for the role he played in rebuilding both understanding and belief.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child get the grades needed for Rochdale Sixth Form or Holy Cross?
Absolutely. Many parents in Middleton come to us with this exact goal. Our tutors specialise in helping students build the skills and confidence needed to achieve a grade 6 or above at GCSE English, focusing on the specific areas your child needs to improve to meet those competitive college entry requirements.
Are your English tutors familiar with the curriculum taught in Middleton schools?
Yes. Our tutors are experts in the UK national curriculum, including the AQA, Edexcel, and OCR exam boards used by schools across the country, including those in Middleton. They can tailor lessons to match exactly what your child is learning in class.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check their qualifications on their profiles. We recommend sending a message to a few tutors to discuss your child's goals before booking a lesson to make sure you find the perfect fit.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study, so you can find an experienced, affordable tutor who fits your family's budget.
How do the online lessons actually work?
Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has everything your child needs to learn effectively, including video chat, an interactive whiteboard for sharing notes, and the ability to upload documents like essays or past papers to work on together.
My child has lost their confidence in English. Can a tutor help with that?
Yes, this is one of the most common reasons parents seek a tutor. The one-to-one environment is perfect for rebuilding confidence. Tutors create a patient and encouraging space where your child can learn at their own pace and ask questions without feeling embarrassed.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed a background check and has been personally interviewed by our team. We're very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply.
What if we don't get on with the first tutor we choose?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match for your child. That's why we have a 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 often should my child have an English lesson?
It’s completely flexible and depends on your child's needs. Most families start with one lesson a week, especially in the run-up to exams, but you can schedule sessions as often or as little as you like. You can discuss the best approach with your tutor.
How quickly can we get started?
You can get started very quickly. Many tutors are available to chat and can arrange a first lesson within a day or two. Simply find a tutor you like and send them a message to arrange a convenient time.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have thousands of expert academic tutors for subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also offer a huge range of other skills. Your child could learn to play the guitar, get help with coding in Python, or even learn a new language.
What happens in the first lesson?
The first lesson is usually a chance for the tutor to get to know your child. They'll chat about what your child enjoys, what they find tricky in English, and what their goals are. It's a relaxed session designed to build a good relationship from the start.
