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...

Megan is a wonderful tutor!
My son has really enjoyed the sessions with her and she adapts them to ensure he is fully understanding the teaching.

Harry L
Our son has dyslexia and had taken his GCSE English several times without passing. He was demoralized with the whole process. We had 6 weeks before the next attempt and we were lucky enough to find Harry. He said that in his first lesson with him he had learnt more about exam technique than he had in all of his GCSE lessons. Today he got a grade 5 which seemed impossible before Harry's tutor sessions. Thankyou very much Harry, our family is extremely grateful for your particular teaching skills and supporting our son to success.

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.
