Hello and welcome! My name is Raquel and I look forward to meeting you soon.

Ready to sit in class with fellow classmates, ready to take home homework, planning and organising assignments.

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 wants to apply to Peter Symonds College. Can a tutor help with this?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students meet the entry requirements for competitive colleges like Peter Symonds. They can focus on strengthening the specific GCSE English skills needed to not only secure a place but also to thrive in their chosen A-Level subjects.
Are the tutors familiar with the GCSE curriculum used in Romsey schools?
Yes. Our tutors are experts in the national curriculum for England. They will work with your child on the specific texts, exam boards, and assessment objectives they are studying in their school, ensuring the tutoring directly supports their classroom learning.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and see ratings from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs—like help with essay writing or Shakespeare—to find someone who is the right fit for their personality and learning style.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. If for any reason you and your child don't get on with your first tutor, simply email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident in English?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might not ask in class. By breaking down difficult topics and celebrating small wins, our tutors help students build self-belief alongside their subject knowledge.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors undergo a thorough vetting process, which includes an identity check and a DBS background check, before they can teach on our platform. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How much does an online English tutor cost in Romsey?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on experience, so you can find an excellent, affordable tutor to match your family's budget. There are no hidden fees or long-term contracts.
What happens in an online lesson?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a shared whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing. They can work through exam questions, analyse texts, and plan essays together with their tutor in real-time, just as they would in person.
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 directly with your chosen tutor to fit your child's needs.
Can I message a tutor before booking a lesson?
Yes, we encourage it! You can send a message to any tutor for free before you book. It's a great way to ask about their experience with the GCSE English curriculum or explain what your child is finding difficult. This helps ensure they are the right person to help before you commit to a lesson.
How many lessons will my child need to see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our one-to-one approach is designed for progress. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence after just a few sessions. Consistent lessons are key, and it’s why 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can you help with other skills?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also offer support in a huge range of other areas! You can find tutors for modern languages, music tuition like guitar or piano, and even practical skills like coding.
