Alina W
Effective English tutor
Hello my name is Alina, and I’m a dentistry student. I have excellent A levels and GCSE grades being an A* student and have had tutoring experience before with children aged 5-17 years old. My students have always loved my lessons as I make sure that each child understands the lesson or what they have chosen to work on before leaving.My teaching style is unique as rather telling the students what they’re doing today, they themselves would email me a couple of days before telling me they want to do this topic today. This meant that the student has control of their own learning and working on the...

George B
Creative English tutor
IntroductionHello. I’m George, and my aim as a tutor is to help students develop an understanding that lasts through their schoolwork, homework, and exams. I work toward this goal with patience, teaching in a relaxed way and challenging students as their confidence in a topic grows. Approach to lessonsDuring the first lesson, I often ask pupils to attempt some questions independently to gauge their ability. After this, we will work together on the difficult portions of the work, and I may use drawings, real-life situations and metaphors to explain specific rules or principles. My goal is to guide s...

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 a place at Oldham Sixth Form College. Can a tutor help my child get the English grade they need?
Absolutely. Our tutors specialise in helping students secure the grades they need for their next steps. They can focus specifically on the GCSE English curriculum, helping your child build confidence in areas like essay writing and textual analysis to help them achieve a grade 5 or above.
My child is hoping to apply to the University of Manchester. Can a tutor help with the skills needed for that?
Yes. A strong grasp of English is vital for a competitive university application. A tutor can help your child develop the advanced analytical and communication skills that top universities look for, giving them a solid foundation for A-Levels and beyond.
What happens if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We know that finding the right personality match is key. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't feel the tutor is the right fit after the first session, just 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 check their experience. We recommend messaging a few to discuss your child's specific goals before booking. It's all about finding someone your child will feel comfortable learning with.
My child has lost their confidence in English. Can a tutor help?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor provides a safe and encouraging space for your child to ask questions without fear of judgement. Rebuilding that confidence is often the first step to seeing their grades improve.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates based on their experience and qualifications, so you can find an option that fits your budget. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, with no hidden fees.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our specially designed online classroom. It features video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It has all the tools your child needs for an engaging and effective lesson.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed an enhanced DBS check before they can start teaching. We also interview every applicant and only accept 1 in 8, so you can be sure of their quality.
Is tutoring just for core subjects like English, or can my child learn other skills too?
While we have fantastic tutors for academic subjects, we also offer support in a huge range of other areas. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or even learn a new language, you can find an expert tutor to help.
Can a tutor help with the specific texts my child is studying for GCSEs?
Definitely. Many of our English tutors are experts on the specific set texts for exam boards, whether it's 'Macbeth', 'Jekyll and Hyde', or the Power and Conflict poetry anthology. They can provide targeted support to help your child understand the key themes and characters.
How many lessons will my child need to see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, so it varies. However, the benefit of one-to-one tuition is that it's highly focused. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence and understanding after just a few sessions.
How is online tutoring different from school?
The main difference is the personalised attention. In a one-to-one session, the lesson is built entirely around your child's needs. They can ask as many questions as they like and learn at their own speed, which isn't always possible in a busy classroom.
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.
