Josh L
Josh has been tutoring my son for several weeks now. When asking my son what he thought of the sessions she shared that the lessons were varied and he makes it interesting and fun, ( My Son is in year 10 - age 14) We were looking for a tutor to help my son with his English as he had a difficult year last year with his teacher and it became a dread and a stress. Having Josh tutoring him has given him more confidence in the subject. He is keen to have the lesson and always comes down afterwards and shares something good about it. He seems to be progressing well at school and I know these sessions can only be helping with that.

Grace B
My daughter worked with Grace as she wanted to re-take her English Language GCSE to improve her grade. My daughter thought Grace was a fantastic teacher. After her first lesson she said she had learnt more in an hour with her than she had in her previous two years at school! She has a lovely friendly manner and put my daughter at ease straight away. She also puts a lot into the lessons through preparation, marking and generally guiding the learning where it's needed most. As an examiner herself she also has a clear understanding of what students need to work on to succeed. Couldn't recommend her highly enough and whether or not my daughter does improve her grade, I know that the lessons were worthwhile. Thank you Grace!

John M
John has been nothing short of a miracle worker with our Year 9 son. In a matter of a few lessons his confidence in English has really grown. He was previously really disengaged with English & it was a real effort to get him to spend any amount of time on it. Now with John’s encouragement, he actually shows me his English homework & wants to improve, work at it. Highly recommend

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.
