Hadika M
Dedicated English tutor
As a Chemical Engineering graduate from the University of Manchester, I saw firsthand how many of my classmates struggled with Maths and English. It wasn't just a few; it was a common challenge. Seeing their difficulties sparked something in me. I found that I genuinely loved helping them understand concepts that seemed confusing. The feeling of watching them grasp a difficult idea was incredibly rewarding, and that's when I discovered my passion for teaching.I strongly disagree with the idea that people are naturally "good" at one subject and "bad" at another. I believe that anyone can learn anything...

Kathy F
Creative English tutor
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). I would help...

Effective English tutor
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...

Hi, I’m John, I’m 23 and I’m currently studying law at Demontfort University. I have been tutoring now for almost two years mainly in maths from KS1 up to GCSE and have developed the knowledge and skills to be able to tailor my lessons to best suit the student as no one style will work best for everyone.

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

Can a tutor help my child get into Ashton Sixth Form or Oldham Sixth Form College?

Absolutely. Many of our English tutors have extensive experience helping students prepare for their GCSEs with the goal of securing places at competitive colleges. They can focus on the specific skills and grade requirements needed for entry into popular A-Level courses at places like Ashton and Oldham Sixth Form.

My child is hoping to study at the University of Manchester. Can a tutor help with that?

Yes. A strong command of English, particularly in analytical and communication skills, is crucial for a successful application to top universities. Our tutors can help your child develop the advanced essay writing and critical thinking abilities that will make their university application stand out.

What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?

It's really important that your child feels comfortable with their tutor. 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 I choose the right English tutor for my child?

You can read detailed profiles for each tutor, including their experience, qualifications, and reviews from other parents. Many tutors offer a short introductory chat so you can see if they are a good fit for your child's personality and learning needs before booking.

How much does an online English tutor cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, allowing you to find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.

How does online tutoring actually work?

Our online classroom is simple to use and has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. All your child needs is a computer with a microphone and a stable internet connection.

Are the tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All of our tutors are background-checked and we only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.

How can a tutor help my child if they've lost confidence in English?

Confidence is key. A one-to-one tutor provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By breaking down tricky topics and celebrating small wins, a tutor can help rebuild your child’s self-belief in their abilities.

How long will my child need tutoring for?

This really depends on your child's individual goals. Some students need a few sessions to prepare for an exam, while others benefit from regular weekly support throughout the school year. It’s completely flexible and something you can discuss directly with your chosen tutor.

Can tutoring help with specific texts, like Shakespeare or poetry?

Yes, definitely. Our English tutors can provide targeted support on specific areas of the curriculum, from understanding complex characters in 'An Inspector Calls' to analysing poetic techniques. Just let them know what your child needs to focus on.

How do I know if my child is making progress?

Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child’s progress. You’ll be able to see their confidence grow as they start to tackle topics they once found difficult, and this is often reflected in their schoolwork and test results. Many parents tell us they see a positive change in their child's attitude towards learning.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or learn a new language, you can find experienced tutors on our platform.
