Flora I
Flora is a very patient, professional and well-prepared tutor. She always explains things clearly and teaches my son how to answer GCSE questions in a structured way. She provides homework, goes through mistakes carefully, and shows him how to improve his answers step by step. She also adjusts her teaching according to my son’s exam boards and level. My son is less anxious about English now and is slowly gaining confidence. We are very happy with her support and would definitely recommend her.
She is especially good at supporting students who are weaker in English and need clear guidance and structure.

John has been working with my son for the past two months. In that time, he has shown a real passion in helping my son succeed. Apart from the scheduled lessons, John takes the time to review my son's school work to ensure he is confident and can excel at school. John also goes through optimal writing strategies during the tutor sessions that my son can transfer to what he is learning in class.
Overall, John is a great tutor and I would highly recommend!

Megan G
Megan is a wonderful tutor!
My son has really enjoyed the sessions with her and she adapts them to ensure he is fully understanding the teaching.
Megan provides an overview of feedback after to each session which allows me to understand what she has covered in the session and how to future support my son.
I cannot recommend her enough!!

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.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child with the English sections of the AQE or GL transfer tests?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our English tutors have specific experience helping children in Northern Ireland prepare for the transfer tests. They can build your child's confidence in comprehension, grammar, and exam technique to help them perform at their best.
My child is hoping to study at Queen's University Belfast. Can a tutor help with their A-Level English?
Definitely. Our tutors can provide targeted support for A-Level English Literature or Language to help your child achieve the grades needed for competitive university courses. They can help with everything from essay structure to analysing complex texts.
How do I find the right English tutor for my child?
You can use our search filters to find tutors with the right experience, whether that's for the 11+, GCSEs, or A-Levels. You can read their profiles, watch their introduction videos, and check reviews from other parents. You can also message tutors before booking to make sure they're a good fit.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. With 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 the level of study. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It's a secure and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of your home.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors undergo a thorough vetting process, including identity and background checks, before they can teach on our platform. We only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident?
One-to-one tutoring creates a safe space for your child to ask questions they might be too shy to ask in class. By working at their pace and celebrating small wins, a tutor can help them overcome learning blocks and build self-belief.
Can tutoring really help with my child's GCSE English results?
Yes, it can make a significant difference. Our data shows that one-to-one tutoring can help improve a child's GCSE results by up to two grades. Tutors can focus on specific areas of the curriculum and exam board requirements to give your child the best chance of success.
What if my child has a specific learning need like dyslexia?
Many of our tutors have experience and qualifications in supporting students with specific learning needs. You can use our search filters to find tutors with SEN experience or mention it when you message them to find the right specialist support for your child.
How long does it take to see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence after just a few sessions. Consistent lessons help build momentum, and 90% of students who use Tutorful improve by at least one grade.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn something else?
While we have thousands of tutors for core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also offer support for a huge range of other interests. Your child could learn anything from coding or playing the guitar to creative writing or a new language.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
