I am a Royal Holloway, University London graduate with a BA and MA, specialising in arts and humanities.

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 hopes to go to Rochdale Sixth Form College. Can a tutor help them secure the right English GCSE grade?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are GCSE specialists and have extensive experience helping students achieve the grades they need for their first-choice college. They can focus on specific exam board requirements, improve exam technique, and build confidence in areas your child finds tricky, giving them the best possible chance of success.
We live in Milnrow. How does online tutoring work for us?
Because all our tutoring is online, you have access to the best English tutors from across the UK, not just those in the local area. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam and microphone. Lessons take place in our interactive online classroom, which has video chat, a whiteboard, and document sharing features.
How do I choose the best 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. Finding someone your child connects with is key to building their confidence.
How do you make sure the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is interviewed by our team and must provide a valid DBS check. We also verify their ID and qualifications. We're very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can feel completely confident in your choice.
What happens if we don’t get on with our first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match, which is why we have a first lesson guarantee. If for any reason you feel the tutor isn't the right fit for your child after the first session, 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 English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications, but you can easily see each tutor's hourly rate on their profile. There are no hidden fees or contracts, so you have complete control and transparency.
How can an online tutor help my child with their confidence?
One-to-one attention from a supportive tutor can make a huge difference. In a safe, encouraging space, your child can ask questions they might be shy to ask in class. Celebrating small wins and mastering difficult topics with their tutor's help is a fantastic way to build their self-belief.
What happens in a typical online English lesson?
Every lesson is different because it's tailored to your child. A session might involve working through a tricky piece of homework, practising essay-writing techniques on the interactive whiteboard, analysing a poem together, or preparing for an upcoming exam. The tutor will focus on whatever your child needs most.
Can a tutor help with both English Language and English Literature?
Yes, many of our English tutors are experts in both and can support your child across the full curriculum. You can check their profiles for details or send them a message to confirm they cover the specific areas your child needs help with.
How quickly can we expect to see results?
Every child learns at their own pace, but the benefit of one-to-one tutoring is that it's highly focused. Many parents notice a boost in their child's confidence and understanding within just a few sessions. Our data shows that 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.
What technology do we need for online lessons?
It's very simple. You just need a computer or laptop with a good internet connection, a webcam, and a microphone. Our online classroom is browser-based, so there's no software to download. It's designed to be intuitive and easy for everyone to use.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or guitar?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we have experts for core academic subjects like English, Maths and Science, you can also find brilliant tutors for music, languages, coding, and professional skills. It's all about helping your child pursue their interests and passions.
