David J
Experienced English Tutor
When it comes to History, I have always loved the subject, leading me to secure my place at the University of Leeds and to follow through my degree and gain a 2:1. While doing so, I had a fantastic time living in Leeds, which is why I came back to live here. My focus was on the British Empire, but having studied History all the way through school and university, my experience with the subject is very broad. For example I studied Britain from 1880-1980 and Nazi Germany at A Level, and American foreign policy and race relations and the Russian Revolution at GCSE. History is one of the most important...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child attends Prince Henry's. Can a tutor help with the specific pressures of local schools?

Absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in helping students navigate the competitive academic environment in areas like Otley. They can tailor sessions to match the school curriculum and focus on building the confidence and skills your child needs to stand out and feel prepared.

We're hoping for a Russell Group university like Leeds or York. Can an English tutor help with that goal?

Yes, securing a strong GCSE or A-Level in English is often a critical step for applications to top universities. A tutor can help your child develop the deep analytical and essay-writing skills that admissions teams at universities like Leeds and York are looking for.

How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?

You can view detailed profiles for each tutor, which include their experience, qualifications, and reviews from other parents. We recommend watching their intro video and sending a message to a few tutors to find the one who feels like the best fit for your child's personality and learning style.

How much does an online English tutor cost?

Prices vary depending on a tutor's experience and level of demand, but you can easily filter tutors by price to find someone who fits your budget. All prices are clearly displayed on their profiles with no hidden costs.

Are your tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors are background-checked and we are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply to ensure the highest quality.

What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?

We want to make sure you find the perfect match. That's why we have a First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your first tutor for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

How can tutoring help my child feel more confident in English?

One-to-one tutoring provides a safe and supportive space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. This personal attention helps them overcome hurdles at their own pace, which is a fantastic way to build lasting confidence.

Do you only offer academic subjects like English?

Not at all! While we have excellent tutors for subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also offer support for a huge range of skills and hobbies. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, speak Spanish, or get started with coding, we have a tutor who can help.

How does online tutoring actually work?

Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. It's designed to be simple and engaging, allowing your child and their tutor to focus on learning.

Can a tutor help with specific GCSE texts like 'An Inspector Calls'?

Yes, definitely. The great thing about one-to-one tutoring is that lessons can be tailored to exactly what your child is studying. Tutors can focus sessions on specific texts, themes, characters, or exam techniques to help them feel fully prepared.

How often should my child have a lesson?

Most families find that a one-hour lesson per week works well, but it's completely flexible. You and your tutor can agree on a schedule that best suits your child's needs and your family's routine.

How do I know if my child is making progress?

Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's progress. You can also message them at any time to ask questions or discuss their development. Many parents tell us they see a noticeable difference not just in their child's grades, but in their overall confidence at school.
