Megan G
Over the past few months, Megan has been an incredible support for my son during what has been a very challenging period for him. Her patience and encouragement has made a huge difference not only to his English and maths skills but also to his confidence and attitude towards learning.
Megan has adapted each lesson to his needs, finding creative ways to help him stay engaged. It’s clear she puts a tremendous amount of thought and effort into her teaching.
I am truly grateful for everything and cannot recommend Megan highly enough.

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.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child hopes to go to Peter Symonds College. Can a tutor help them meet the GCSE English requirements?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experts in the GCSE curriculum and have experience helping students secure the top grades (7-9) needed for competitive sixth forms. They can focus specifically on the skills and knowledge required to meet those demanding entry requirements.
With the high standards of schools in the Petersfield area, how can I be sure a tutor is right for my child?
We understand that you want the best for your child. That's why we're so selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply. You can view detailed profiles, read reviews from other parents, and have a free chat with tutors before booking to ensure you find the perfect personality and expertise for your child.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
Think about your child's specific needs. Are they struggling with essay writing for Literature or grammar for Language? You can use our filters to find tutors who specialise in GCSE, A-Level, or even specific exam boards. Reading tutor bios and reviews from other parents is also a great way to find a good fit.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
It's really important that your child feels comfortable with their tutor. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If it's not the right fit 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 much does private English tuition cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, typically starting from £20 per hour. Because our tutors are based all over the UK, you get access to a wide range of prices and expertise, so you can find an amazing tutor that fits your family's budget.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It’s simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing, so your child can work on anything from analysing poetry to drafting essays in real-time with their tutor. All you need is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors has been through a background check. We also interview them and verify their ID and qualifications to ensure your child is in safe, expert hands.
Can a tutor help my child with confidence as well as grades?
Definitely. One of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring is the confidence boost it provides. When your child has a safe space to ask questions and master topics they found tricky, their self-belief grows, and that often has a positive impact on their work in the classroom too.
How can a tutor help with both GCSE English Language and Literature?
Our tutors are experienced across the English curriculum. They can dedicate sessions to the different skills needed for each paper – for example, focusing on creative writing for Language one week, and analysing quotes from 'An Inspector Calls' for Literature the next. It's completely flexible to your child's needs.
How quickly will we see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but the focused, one-to-one attention of tutoring often leads to progress quite quickly. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence and understanding within just a few sessions. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.
What happens in a typical one-hour English lesson?
A typical lesson starts with a quick chat about what your child wants to cover. They might review a piece of homework, work through a past paper question on the interactive whiteboard, or plan an essay structure together. The hour is entirely focused on your child's specific goals for that day.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something like coding or a musical instrument?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we are experts in core academic subjects like English, Maths and Science, we also have brilliant tutors who can teach hobbies and life skills, from learning the guitar and coding to speaking Spanish.
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.
