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
We're aiming for The Henrietta Barnett School. Can I find a tutor with 11+ English experience?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in 11+ preparation and have specific experience helping children with the requirements for competitive grammar schools. You can view their profiles to see their expertise and even message them to ask about their approach to creative writing and comprehension.
My child is at The Compton School. Can a tutor help them push for a top GCSE grade?
Definitely. A tutor can provide focused support to help your child aim for the highest grades. They can work on specific areas, from essay technique to analysing unseen texts, providing the dedicated attention that can make all the difference. We know that students can improve their GCSE results by up to 2 grades with the right support.
How do I pick the right English tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. We recommend shortlisting a few and sending them a message to discuss your child's needs before booking. It's all about finding the right fit for your child.
How do I know the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is ID and background-checked before they can teach on our platform. We also interview every applicant and are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from a true expert.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right student-tutor relationship is. 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 an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. This allows you to find a brilliant, experienced tutor that fits within your family's budget.
Can a tutor help my child if they've lost their confidence in English?
Yes, this is one of the most powerful benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor creates a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By breaking down topics and celebrating small wins, they can help rebuild your child's confidence piece by piece.
How does online tutoring work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection.
What happens in a typical English lesson?
Every lesson is tailored to your child. A tutor might spend time reviewing a school essay, practising exam questions, working on spelling and grammar rules, or exploring a new book together. The focus is always on what your child needs most to make progress and feel more confident.
Is Tutorful just for academic subjects like English?
Not at all! While we have thousands of tutors for core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, you can also find experts to help your child learn a new language, master a musical instrument like the guitar, or even learn practical skills like coding.
How long are the lessons and how often should they be?
Lessons are typically one hour long. Most families find a weekly session works best to build momentum and consolidate learning, but the frequency is completely up to you. You can discuss what's right for your child directly with your chosen tutor.
Do I have to commit to a block of lessons?
No, there are no long-term commitments or contracts. Our platform is pay-as-you-go, giving you complete flexibility. You can book as many or as few lessons as your child needs, whenever you need them.
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.
