This meant that the student has control of their own learning and working on the...

Siobhan was excellent and I’m really pleased with how the first session went. She was really well prepared and explained things clearly throughout the lesson. She worked patiently with my son and made him feel at ease, which was great to see as he can be quite shy at first. She asked thoughtful questions and encouraged him to share his ideas, helping to build his confidence as the session went on. Overall, it was a very positive and engaging first lesson. Thanks Siobhan!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is worried about the step up to GCSE English at Woodhey High. Can a tutor help?
Absolutely. This is a common concern for many parents. A private English tutor can help your child get ahead by pre-learning topics, building a solid foundation in essay structure and textual analysis, and giving them the confidence to contribute in class. They can make the transition feel much smoother.
We're aiming for A-Levels at Holy Cross College. Can a tutor help secure the required GCSE English grade?
Yes. Our tutors are experienced in helping students achieve specific grade goals. They can focus on the exact areas of the curriculum your child finds challenging to help them secure the results they need for their chosen A-Level path, including entry to respected local colleges.
How do I find the right English tutor for my child?
It's simple. You can use our search filters to find tutors with experience in the specific area your child needs help with, from GCSE exam preparation to creative writing. You can also read reviews from other parents and watch introductory videos to get a feel for their teaching style before you book.
How much does online English tuition cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and level of study, but you can set your own budget using our search filters. Tutors set their own rates, so you can find an option that works for your family. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is ID and background-checked before they can join Tutorful. 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.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
Often, a lack of confidence comes from not wanting to ask questions in a busy classroom. In a one-to-one lesson, your child has a safe space to say 'I don't understand'. This personalised attention helps them master topics at their own pace, and seeing that progress is a huge confidence booster.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is, which is 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 does online tutoring work?
All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It's a convenient and highly effective way for your child to learn from home.
Can a tutor help with specific texts, like Shakespeare or poetry?
Definitely. Many of our English tutors are specialists in this area. They can help your child break down complex language, analyse key quotes, and structure essays on specific set texts for their GCSE or A-Level exams.
How often should my child have lessons?
Most families find that one hour-long lesson per week is a great starting point for consistent progress. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange a schedule that fits your child's needs and your family's routine directly with your chosen tutor.
What happens in a typical first lesson?
The first session is usually a chance for the tutor to get to know your child. They'll chat about what they enjoy, what they find tricky in English, and what their goals are. This helps the tutor create a tailored plan to support them effectively from the very next lesson.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn something like coding or a musical instrument?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the core curriculum. From learning to play the guitar or speak Spanish, to mastering new skills like coding, you can find expert tutors to support your child's passions and hobbies too.
