Holly E
Holly has been tutoring my son in English GCSE for the last half term. He has found the lessons very useful, working in a logical order through the different aspects of the curriculum. Holly is friendly, approachable and encouraging.
My Son has just had his mock exam results and has moved from just hitting an exam grade boundary to being 2 points off the next grade up. We are very pleased at his progress in a short space of time.

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.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My main worry is my child getting a grade 5 in their English Language GCSE. Can a tutor focus specifically on that?
Absolutely. This is a very common goal for parents, and our tutors are experienced in helping students target specific grades. A tutor can assess your child's current level, identify the exact areas holding them back, and create a tailored plan to help them secure that all-important grade 5.
Can a tutor help my child with their application to Nelson and Colne College?
While tutors don't handle the application process itself, they play a crucial role in helping your child meet the academic entry requirements. By focusing on improving their English grades and building their subject knowledge, a tutor can give them the best possible chance of securing a place on their desired course.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
Finding the perfect match is simple. You can use our search filters to find tutors with experience in the specific area your child needs help with, like GCSE exam prep. Read their profiles, check out reviews from other parents, and send a message to a few to find someone your child will connect with.
How does online tutoring work?
It's just like being in the same room, but more convenient! Lessons take place in our online classroom, which features live video chat, an interactive whiteboard for sharing notes and diagrams, and the ability to upload documents. It's a secure and effective way for your child to learn.
How do I know my child is safe online?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed an identity check and has a valid DBS background check. All lessons are recorded, providing a secure environment and a useful tool for your child to review what they've learned.
What if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We know that the right student-tutor relationship is key to success. 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 much does online English tutoring cost in nelson?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own hourly rates, so you can easily find an expert who fits your budget. You can see each tutor's price clearly on their profile with no hidden costs.
How often should my child have a lesson?
This is completely up to you and depends on your child's goals. Many families find a one-hour session once a week is perfect for consistent progress, but you can arrange more frequent lessons, especially in the run-up to exams. It's totally flexible.
Can a tutor help my child with their confidence, not just their grades?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. When a child starts to understand a topic they previously found difficult, their confidence soars. Our tutors are brilliant at creating a supportive, encouraging space where your child feels comfortable asking questions and making progress.
What qualifications do your English tutors have?
Our tutors come from a range of professional backgrounds. Many are qualified teachers, examiners, or hold degrees in English from top universities. You can view each tutor's specific qualifications and experience on their profile to find the perfect expert for your child.
How quickly can we expect to see improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our data shows that 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. The biggest change many parents notice first is a boost in their child's confidence and a more positive attitude towards their studies, often within just a few sessions.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or guitar?
We offer tutoring for a huge range of subjects and skills beyond the school curriculum. Whether your child wants to prepare for their 11+, learn Python for a new hobby, or take up the guitar, you can find expert, background-checked tutors for almost anything on Tutorful.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
If things aren’t right with your first lesson just let us know. We’ll pay for
your next lesson with a new tutor – and even help you find them.
