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.

Grace B
My daughter worked with Grace as she wanted to re-take her English Language GCSE to improve her grade. My daughter thought Grace was a fantastic teacher. After her first lesson she said she had learnt more in an hour with her than she had in her previous two years at school! She has a lovely friendly manner and put my daughter at ease straight away. She also puts a lot into the lessons through preparation, marking and generally guiding the learning where it's needed most. As an examiner herself she also has a clear understanding of what students need to work on to succeed. Couldn't recommend her highly enough and whether or not my daughter does improve her grade, I know that the lessons were worthwhile. Thank you Grace!

John M
John has been nothing short of a miracle worker with our Year 9 son. In a matter of a few lessons his confidence in English has really grown. He was previously really disengaged with English & it was a real effort to get him to spend any amount of time on it. Now with John’s encouragement, he actually shows me his English homework & wants to improve, work at it. Highly recommend

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child attends The Polesworth School. Can a tutor help them aim for top GCSE grades?
Absolutely. Our tutors specialise in helping students move from a good grade to a great one. They can work with your child on the specific skills needed to secure a top grade in GCSE English, focusing on exam technique, essay structure, and in-depth textual analysis to help them stand out.
We're hoping for a place at the University of Warwick or Birmingham. Can a tutor help?
Yes. While our tutors provide excellent GCSE and A-Level support, they can also help your child develop the critical thinking and writing skills that are essential for success at competitive universities. This includes help with crafting a strong personal statement for their UCAS application.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch tutors' introduction videos, read reviews from other parents, and message them for free to discuss your child's needs before booking. It's all about finding the right personality and teaching style to help your child feel confident and motivated.
What happens 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.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our priority. All of our tutors are DBS-checked, and we interview every single one. We're very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply to our platform, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which are displayed clearly on their profiles. There are no hidden fees or contracts. You simply pay for the lessons you book, making it easy to find experienced, high-quality support that fits your budget.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our online classroom, which features live video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It's a dynamic and engaging learning environment your child can access from the comfort of home.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident?
One-to-one tutoring provides a safe and supportive space for your child to ask questions and work at their own pace without the pressure of a full classroom. This personal attention often leads to 'lightbulb moments' that build confidence and a genuine enjoyment of the subject.
Can a tutor help with specific texts like 'An Inspector Calls' or poetry?
Yes, definitely. The beauty of one-to-one tutoring is that lessons are completely tailored. Your tutor can focus specifically on the set texts your child is studying for their GCSEs, helping them understand characters, themes, and context in detail.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we offer expert support in all core academic subjects, we also have tutors for a wide range of other skills and hobbies. From learning to code in Python to playing the guitar or speaking a new language, we're here to support all of your child's learning goals.
How long is a typical lesson?
Most lessons are one hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can discuss lesson length with your tutor to find what works best for your child's schedule and concentration.
How quickly can we start lessons?
You can get started very quickly. Many tutors have availability within the same week. Simply find a tutor you like, send them a message to check they're a good fit, and then book your first session directly from their calendar.
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.
