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 child hopes to study A-Levels at Aquinas College. Can a tutor help them secure the necessary GCSE English grade?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students meet the entry requirements for popular sixth forms and colleges like Aquinas. They can focus on the specific essay-writing and analytical skills needed to achieve a strong pass in GCSE English, giving your child the best possible chance of securing their place.
We're aiming for a competitive university like Manchester or Sheffield. How can an English tutor support this long-term goal?
That's a fantastic goal. A strong foundation in English is crucial for university applications. Tutors can help your child develop the advanced analytical and communication skills that top universities look for. They can also provide support with personal statement writing when the time comes, helping your child articulate their passion for their chosen subject.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
Finding the perfect match is key. You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check their experience. We recommend sending a message to a few tutors to explain your child's goals before booking to make sure you find someone you're all comfortable with.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates based on their experience and qualifications. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, so you can find an experienced tutor who fits your family's budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
It's really important that your child feels comfortable with their tutor. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If it isn't the right fit for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How do online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. All they need is a laptop or computer with a webcam and a stable internet connection. It's simple, secure, and all in one place.
Are the tutors safe and background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every single tutor and only accept 1 in 8 who apply. All tutors must have a valid DBS check (or equivalent) and provide references, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How can tutoring help my child build confidence?
Sometimes, a fear of getting things wrong in a busy classroom can hold a child back. One-to-one tutoring provides a safe, supportive space where your child can ask questions freely and work at their own pace without pressure, which can make a huge difference to their confidence.
Can a tutor help with both English Language and English Literature?
Yes, definitely. Most of our English tutors are experts in both and can tailor lessons to focus on what your child needs most, whether that's understanding poetry for Literature or honing their writing technique for the Language exam.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that a one-hour session once a week works well, but it's completely flexible. You and your tutor can decide on the best frequency based on your child's goals and your family's schedule.
Do you only offer tutoring for core academic subjects?
Not at all! While we have experts in subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also have tutors who can teach a wide range of skills. From learning to play the guitar or speak Spanish, to coding in Python, there are hundreds of subjects to explore.
How do I know that online tutoring with Tutorful works?
We're proud to have helped over 200,000 students on their learning journey. With a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 reviews, you can be confident you're in safe hands. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.
