Mamun A
My son is really improving since starting lessons with Mamun. From the start of the lesson getting almost all questions wrong to by the end completely understanding it all. Tested him a few days later and he got almost every question right without any help at all he remembered all the punctuation in all questions, shocked how much he's improved from just one lesson on it! Mamun's teaching is brilliant and it really seems to stick in my sons head. Also my son is very fussy with his ASD/ADHD and is often open about his feelings towards people, especially new people most often than not he will say he doesn't like this person because of this or that, but he said he likes his tutor and wants to do more lessons which is brilliant. Mamun is always on time, very patient and explains thoroughly, he gives brilliant feedback afterwards too. Highly recommend this tutor and I'm glad I chose him rather than someone else.

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.

My child is hoping to go to a university like Cardiff Met. Can a tutor help with that?
Yes, definitely. A strong GCSE in English is a key requirement for most university courses. Our tutors can help your child secure the grade they need and also assist with skills like personal statement writing, which is crucial for university applications to places like Cardiff Met or the University of South Wales.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. That's why we have our 'First Lesson Guarantee'. If you feel the first tutor isn't the right match for your child for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and even message tutors for free before booking. Look for someone whose experience matches your child's needs, whether that's specific GCSE exam board knowledge or a focus on building confidence.
How can a tutor help my child if they've lost confidence in English?
One-to-one tutoring is fantastic for building confidence. In a supportive, private setting, your child can ask questions they might be afraid to ask in class. Tutors celebrate small wins and break down tricky topics, helping your child see that they really can succeed.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications, but you can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile. There are no hidden fees or contracts, so you can find quality support that fits your family's budget.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has undergone a background check. We are very selective, only accepting 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
Do you only offer tutoring for academic subjects like English?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also offer support in a huge range of other areas! You can find tutors for everything from learning the guitar and coding to modern languages and music theory.
How does Tutorful help with GCSE English specifically?
Our tutors are brilliant at focusing on what matters for GCSEs. They can help your child with exam technique, understanding the mark scheme, analysing set texts like 'Macbeth', and planning essays under timed conditions to help them feel fully prepared for their exams.
What technology do we need for online lessons?
All you need is a computer or tablet with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is easy to use and has features like an interactive whiteboard to make learning engaging and effective.

Lessons are typically one hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can discuss different lesson lengths with your chosen tutor to find what works best for your child.
How quickly can we find a tutor and start lessons?
You can find and book a tutor today. Many of our tutors have availability within the next few days, which you can see on their profiles. It's easy to find and schedule a lesson time that works for your family.
