Give Your Child Confidence With an Online English Tutor in Newport

It's completely understandable to feel the pressure when you're thinking about your child's future, especially with the competition for places at schools like Haberdashers' Adams' and Newport Girls' High School. You want to give them the best possible start, but it can be hard to know how to help with the specifics of 11+ verbal reasoning or tricky GCSE English texts. Finding a great one-to-one English tutor can make all the difference. It’s not about adding more pressure; it's about providing friendly, expert support that builds your child's skills and, most importantly, their confidence. A great tutor partners with you to help your child feel prepared and capable, ready for whatever comes next.

Why Strong English Skills Open Doors for Your Child

English isn't just another subject on the timetable; it's the foundation for so much of your child's future success. From understanding complex texts in science to writing a compelling personal statement for university, strong communication skills are essential. Mastering how to analyse a quote from 'Macbeth' or structure a persuasive essay for their GCSEs teaches them to think critically and express their ideas clearly – skills that are invaluable for A-Levels, university, and any career path they choose.

Michael B
Friendly, enthusiastic English Tutor
I absolutely love what I do, and channel that enthusiasm within each of my lessons. I believe a child can very easily see if a teacher is passionate about what they are teaching, which is why I believe only those who absolutely love their profession should teach. I want to provide the most engaging and challenging lesson for myself, because I hold very high standards for my quality of work, but more importantly, for the child. I want a child to leave each session safe in the knowledge that they have learnt something new that day.I like to approach each session differently, learning what interests...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is preparing for the 11+ for schools like Haberdashers' Adams'. Can a tutor help?

Yes, absolutely. Many of our English tutors have specific experience with 11+ preparation. They can work with your child on key areas like verbal reasoning, comprehension, and creative writing to help them feel confident and prepared for the exam format used by selective schools in the area.

We're worried about the step up to GCSE English at a Newport secondary school. How can a tutor support this?

A tutor can be a great help during the transition to GCSEs. They can provide one-to-one support to consolidate your child's knowledge, work on analysing complex texts, improve essay writing skills, and build their confidence so they feel ready to tackle the demands of the course.

How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?

You can browse tutor profiles to see their experience, qualifications, and a video introduction. Reading reviews from other parents is also a great way to get a feel for their teaching style. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs before booking a lesson.

How much does an online English tutor cost?

Our tutors set their own hourly rates, so prices vary depending on their experience and qualifications. You can easily filter tutors by price on our search page to find someone who fits your budget, with no hidden fees.

Are your tutors safe and background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed a background check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence in English?

Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions without feeling embarrassed. A tutor can break down difficult topics, celebrate small wins, and adapt their teaching style, which helps your child feel capable and more positive about the subject.

What if we don't click with the first tutor?

We want to make sure you find the perfect match. 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 does online tutoring work?

It's simple! All lessons take place in our online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam and a stable internet connection.

How long are the tutoring sessions?

The standard lesson length is one hour, which is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can always discuss different lesson lengths with your tutor to see what works best for your child.

Do I have to commit to a certain number of lessons?

No, there's no long-term commitment. You can book lessons one at a time or schedule a regular weekly slot with your tutor. It's completely flexible to fit around your family's needs and schedule.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

While we're well known for core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also have brilliant tutors who teach a huge range of other skills. Your child could learn anything from coding and Python to playing the guitar or speaking Spanish.

What if we need to reschedule a lesson?

Life can be busy, and we understand that plans change. You can easily reschedule or cancel a lesson through the platform. We just ask that you give your tutor at least 12 hours' notice.
