Harry L
Our son has dyslexia and had taken his GCSE English several times without passing. He was demoralized with the whole process. We had 6 weeks before the next attempt and we were lucky enough to find Harry. He said that in his first lesson with him he had learnt more about exam technique than he had in all of his GCSE lessons. Today he got a grade 5 which seemed impossible before Harry's tutor sessions. Thankyou very much Harry, our family is extremely grateful for your particular teaching skills and supporting our son to success.

Sam H
I started working with Sam quite late in the A-Level year, but despite the limited time he put in so much effort and support. He completely rebuilt my confidence in English Language and helped take me from a B to an A — the first A I’d ever achieved in English, and I got it in my actual A-Levels. He had me writing answers every week and always gave incredibly thorough, clear feedback that really helped me improve quickly. I genuinely wouldn’t have achieved my grade without him and can’t recommend him enough.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is aiming for a competitive sixth form in North London. Can a tutor help them develop the essay skills needed?
Absolutely. Our English tutors are experienced in helping students develop the sophisticated analytical and essay-writing skills required for entry into top sixth forms. They can work with your child on everything from text analysis to structuring powerful arguments, giving them a real competitive edge.
We're thinking about universities like UCL or King's College. Can a tutor help with the personal statement?
Yes, many of our tutors have extensive experience guiding students through the university application process, including crafting compelling personal statements. They can help your child articulate their strengths and ambitions in a way that stands out to admissions teams at leading London universities.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is essential for 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 do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and use our messaging system to chat with them before booking. Think about your child's specific needs—whether it's exam technique for GCSEs or confidence with poetry—and find a tutor whose experience matches those goals.
How do you ensure tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every tutor and they must provide a valid DBS check. We also verify their ID and qualifications. With only 1 in 8 applicants being accepted, you can be confident you are choosing from highly qualified and trusted educators.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, typically starting from around £20 per hour. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study. You can easily filter by price to find a brilliant tutor who fits your budget.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple and effective. All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer, a webcam, and a stable internet connection.
Can tutoring help my child if they've lost confidence in English?
Yes, this is one of the most powerful benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor provides a supportive, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without fear of judgement. Rebuilding that confidence is often the first step to seeing their grades and enjoyment of the subject improve.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something like creative writing or public speaking?
While we cover all academic subjects, we also have amazing tutors who can help your child explore hobbies and develop new life skills. From creative writing and public speaking to learning a musical instrument or coding, there's a huge range of subjects to discover.
How long are the tutoring sessions and how often should they be?
Sessions are typically one hour long. Most families find that one session per week is ideal for consistent progress, especially when preparing for exams like GCSEs. However, the frequency is completely flexible and can be arranged directly with your chosen tutor to fit your child's needs.
What's the difference between English Language and English Literature GCSE?
English Language focuses on analysing non-fiction texts and developing your child's own writing skills. English Literature involves the study of novels, plays, and poetry, focusing on themes, characters, and context. Tutors can provide specific support for either or both, depending on what your child needs.
How quickly can we see an improvement in my child's grades?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our tailored approach is designed for progress. With consistent sessions, many parents notice a boost in their child's confidence and understanding within a few weeks. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.
