English is so much more than just a school subject; it's the foundation for clear thinking and strong communication. Whether your child is analysing a quote from 'Macbeth' or structuring a persuasive essay, they're building skills that are essential for almost every A-Level, university course, and future career. A good grade in English shows they can understand complex ideas and express their own thoughts clearly – a skill that universities and employers value highly.

I believe that I would aim to enhance the students learning by focusing my lessons on the areas of the subject the find they are the weakest on and strengthening those through various learning techniques and then through the use of past papers to reinforce what they have learnt.I have been a tutor for medic mind for close to 3 years and I also conduct private tuition classes for a wide range...

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.

Josh L
Josh has been tutoring my son for several weeks now. When asking my son what he thought of the sessions she shared that the lessons were varied and he makes it interesting and fun, ( My Son is in year 10 - age 14) We were looking for a tutor to help my son with his English as he had a difficult year last year with his teacher and it became a dread and a stress. Having Josh tutoring him has given him more confidence in the subject. He is keen to have the lesson and always comes down afterwards and shares something good about it. He seems to be progressing well at school and I know these sessions can only be helping with that.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child hopes to study at Midsomer Norton Sixth Form. Can a tutor help them secure the necessary English GCSE grade?
Absolutely. This is a very common goal for parents we work with. Our tutors are experienced in helping students aim for specific grades needed for college entry. They can focus on the exact areas of the English GCSE syllabus your child needs to strengthen to give them the best possible chance of securing their place.
Can a tutor help my child with applications for universities like Bath or Bristol?
Yes, many of our English tutors have experience supporting students with their personal statements for university applications. They can help your child structure their ideas, express themselves clearly, and showcase their strengths – all crucial skills for applying to competitive universities.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. You can also message tutors for free before booking to ask about their experience with the GCSE curriculum and make sure they're a good fit for your child.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. 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 much does online English tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can easily filter tutors by price on our website to find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts, so you just pay for the lessons you book.
Are the tutors safe and background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor is interviewed and has their ID and qualifications verified. We also carry out background checks. We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How does online tutoring work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing tools, making it easy for your child to work on everything from essay plans to analysing texts with their tutor in real-time.
Can tutoring help my child with their confidence?
Definitely. For many children, confidence is the biggest barrier to learning. A one-to-one tutor provides a safe, encouraging space for them to ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Seeing their own progress week after week is a huge confidence booster.
We live in Paulton, but are the tutors also local?
Because all our tutoring is online, you're not limited to tutors in Paulton. You can choose the absolute best English tutor for your child from across the entire UK, giving you access to a much wider pool of expertise.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like English, Maths and Science, we also offer a huge range of other skills. You can find tutors for everything from learning an instrument like the guitar to practical skills like coding and Python.
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 your tutor at any time to discuss how things are going. The ultimate proof is seeing your child's growing confidence and their improving results at school.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
Most sessions are one hour long, as this gives enough time to cover a topic in depth without your child losing focus. However, you can discuss different session lengths with your tutor to find what works best for your child's schedule and learning needs.
