Carole G
Professional English tutor
Hi, my name is Carole. I worked as a primary school teacher for 19 years and I have been tutoring children from reception to year 8, mainly online, since February 2020. I have worked with many children, helping them to achieve success in SATs, school entrance exams or to gain increased confidence and enjoyment of their subjects in school. I had some recent feedback from a parent, stating that their child had "gone from being scared of maths (and trying to hide it by saying maths is boring) to loving it!" Some of my current students have worked with me for several years, continuing after primary...

My son has just started with Mamun, so far I am very happy. At first, my son was finding it a bit difficult to understand him, but when I expected it to Mamun he was very nice about it, and he did exactly what I wanted.

Flora I
We are absolutely delighted with the English tuition Flora is providing for our son in preparation for his GCSEs. He is really enjoying her lessons and already finding them extremely helpful. Flora listens carefully, offers clear and thoughtful advice, and focuses on strengthening his knowledge in a way that feels supportive and encouraging. Each lesson is very well structured, which has really helped build his confidence.
Although he has only had a few lessons so far, he already feels they will make a real difference and help him focus on exactly what he needs to prioritise for his exams. This is exactly what we hoped Flora would deliver, and we couldn’t be happier with the start she has made.

Brilliant English tutors who you’ll really click with.
Our experienced tutors take the time to understand where each student needs to focus and their preferred way of learning. They make a measurable difference – 90% of all students improve by at least one grade.
We live in a rural part of Powys. Does online tutoring really provide the same quality of support?
Absolutely. In fact, many parents find it gives them access to a much wider range of specialist tutors than would be available locally. Your child can connect with a top English expert from anywhere in the UK, ensuring they get the focused support they need without you having to drive for miles. Our interactive online classroom makes lessons just as engaging and effective as being in the same room.
My child is hoping to study at Aberystwyth or Cardiff. Can a tutor help them get the English A-Level grades they need?
Yes, definitely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students bridge the gap between GCSE and A-Level and prepare for university. They can work with your child on the advanced analytical and essay-writing skills required for A-Level English, helping them build the knowledge and confidence to secure the grades needed for their chosen university course.
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 for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the perfect match for your child, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check each tutor's experience and qualifications on their profile. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs before booking to make sure you find the perfect match.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and level of study, but you can easily filter your search by price to find someone who fits your budget. All costs are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile with no hidden fees.
How can I be sure the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked, and we personally interview them to verify their expertise and teaching ability. We're very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
My child has lost their confidence in English. How can a tutor help?
This is one of the most common reasons parents come to us. A one-to-one tutor can create a safe, encouraging space where your child feels comfortable asking questions. By breaking down difficult topics and celebrating small wins, a tutor can help rebuild their self-belief, often with a positive impact on their other subjects too.
How do the online lessons 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. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
Most sessions are one hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without your child losing focus. However, you can arrange different session lengths by discussing it directly with your chosen tutor.
How quickly could we see an improvement in my child's grades?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our tailored approach is designed for progress. With consistent sessions, many parents see a boost in their child's confidence quite quickly. It's why 90% of our students improve by at least one whole grade.
Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or guitar?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we're here to help with core academics like English, Maths, and Science, we also have brilliant tutors who can teach everything from coding languages like Python to playing a musical instrument or learning a new language.
Can a tutor help my child prepare for their GCSE English exams?
Yes, our tutors are brilliant at helping students prepare for exams. They can help your child master exam technique, manage their time effectively, and revise key topics so they feel calm and prepared on the day. Studies have shown we can help students improve their GCSE results by up to 2 grades.
