Frances has been helping my daughter with English and SPaG in preparation for her SATs and after just a few sessions, I’ve seen a difference. She sets weekly homework, takes a genuine interest in my daughter’s week and makes learning fun by playing games like hangman to aid spelling. My daughter is engaged and is starting to really grasp the content. Frances is patient, encouraging and explains things clearly, which has already boosted my daughter’s confidence.

We are 3 lessons in and already I can see the difference in confidence it has given my son. Alex has been great at engaging in sessions that are interactive, which suit my son's learning style. He is focusing on areas of weakness and breaking things down simply to give him the tools to improve his grades. Time will tell, but so far we are both really happy.

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.

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.
