Jack P
Experienced English tutor
I graduated from Oxford three years ago and have been tutoring since. I’ve taught a range of different syllabi to students from all around the world, from primary level up until adult ESL.The schooling system is incredibly formulaic in the techniques examined, and I ensure that students are well accustomed to a style of writing that will aid them for their exams and beyond. In assisting a range of students, I have learnt the value in really encouraging students to enjoy the literature that they are exploring, and that is why exposure to as wide an array of texts is possible is a priority for m...

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
My child is preparing for the Kent Test. Can a tutor help with the specific English skills needed?
Absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in 11+ and Kent Test preparation. They have extensive experience in helping children build confidence with verbal reasoning, advanced vocabulary, and the specific comprehension techniques needed to succeed in these exams.
We're aiming for a school like Judd or Tonbridge Grammar. Can I find a tutor with experience in this?
Yes, you can. When searching, you can view each tutor's profile to see their specific experience, including preparing students for entrance exams to top-tier grammar and independent schools. You can even message them beforehand to discuss your child's goals.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It’s all about finding the right fit. You can read reviews from other parents, watch introductory videos, and check each tutor's qualifications and experience on their profile. We recommend sending a message to a few tutors to chat about your child's needs before you book a lesson.
How can an online tutor help my child build confidence?
One-to-one lessons provide a safe and encouraging space for your child to learn at their own pace. Without the pressure of a classroom, they can ask questions freely and focus on topics they find tricky, which is a fantastic way to build their self-belief and enjoyment of a subject.
What if we don't get on with our 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 for any reason, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How much does an English tutor cost in Otford?
Our tutors set their own rates, typically starting from around £15 per hour. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study. You can easily filter tutors by price to find an expert who fits your family's budget.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed a background check and has been personally vetted by our team. We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply.
How does online tutoring work?
It's simple and effective. All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one lesson a week works well, but it's completely flexible. You can discuss what's best for your child's goals directly with your chosen tutor. There are no contracts or minimum commitments.
Do you only offer help with school subjects?
Not at all! While we support thousands of students with academic subjects from Primary through to degree level, we also have amazing tutors who can help your child learn a new skill or hobby, like playing the guitar, coding in Python, or learning a new language.
Can tutoring help with more than just exams?
Definitely. While exam results are important, tutoring also helps your child develop crucial study habits, improve their organisation, and grow their overall confidence in their abilities. These are skills that will benefit them for years to come.
How quickly can we start?
You can start very quickly. Simply search for tutors, send a message to the ones you like, and you can often arrange the first lesson within a day or two, depending on the tutor's availability.
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.
