Ben D
Ben is an amazing tutor, he’s really got my step son who has Asperger’s to engage, lessons are planned and structured, post lesson feedback given which really helps as I can send it over to his mom after his lesson and know what he needs to revise. Definitely a worthwhile investment in my step sons future!

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.

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.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is preparing for the Buckinghamshire 11+. Can I find a tutor with experience in this?
Absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in 11+ preparation and have specific experience with the Buckinghamshire entrance exams. You can check their profiles for details and message them before booking to discuss your child's needs.
We're aiming for a grammar school in Aylesbury or High Wycombe. Can a tutor help with the specific verbal reasoning skills needed?
Yes. Our tutors can create a targeted learning plan to build the exact skills required for the verbal reasoning components of the 11+ test. They can help your child improve their vocabulary, logic, and reading comprehension to build their confidence for the exam.
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 on their profile. We recommend messaging a few tutors to find someone who you feel is a great match for your child's personality and learning goals.
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 an online English tutor cost?
Tutor prices vary depending on their experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, allowing you to find an experienced tutor who fits your budget.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed a background check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident your child is in safe, expert hands.
How can tutoring help my child build confidence?
One-to-one tutoring provides a safe, encouraging space for your child to ask questions without fear of being wrong. When a tutor tailors lessons to their pace and celebrates their small wins, children start to see what they're truly capable of, which does wonders for their self-esteem.
What happens in a typical online English lesson?
Lessons take place in our interactive online classroom, which has a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing. A tutor might work through challenging texts with your child, practise exam questions, or focus on building specific vocabulary, all depending on your child's goals.
How long will it take to see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our focused, one-to-one approach is designed to make a real difference quickly. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence and understanding after just a few sessions.
Can I track my child's progress?
Yes. You can message your child's tutor at any time to get feedback and discuss their progress. Many tutors also provide session notes so you can see what they've been working on and how your child is getting on.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can you help with other skills?
While we cover all core academic subjects, we also have amazing tutors who can teach a wide range of other skills. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or build their confidence in public speaking, we can help.
How does online tutoring work?
It's simple! You just need a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. All lessons take place in our specially designed online classroom, so there's no need to download any complicated software.
