John has been working with my son for the past two months. In that time, he has shown a real passion in helping my son succeed. Apart from the scheduled lessons, John takes the time to review my son's school work to ensure he is confident and can excel at school. John also goes through optimal writing strategies during the tutor sessions that my son can transfer to what he is learning in class.
Overall, John is a great tutor and I would highly recommend!

Harry L
Our son has dyslexia and had taken his GCSE English several times without passing. He was demoralized with the whole process. We had 6 weeks before the next attempt and we were lucky enough to find Harry. He said that in his first lesson with him he had learnt more about exam technique than he had in all of his GCSE lessons. Today he got a grade 5 which seemed impossible before Harry's tutor sessions. Thankyou very much Harry, our family is extremely grateful for your particular teaching skills and supporting our son to success.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child wants to apply to Harington School. Can a tutor help them achieve the necessary English GCSE grade?
Absolutely. Many parents in Rutland share this goal. Our tutors can focus specifically on the GCSE English curriculum, targeting the skills needed to achieve top grades like 8s and 9s, which are often required for competitive sixth forms.
With such high academic standards in Rutland, how can a tutor give my child an edge in English?
A private tutor provides one-to-one attention that's simply not possible in a classroom. They can identify and strengthen your child's specific areas of weakness, build their confidence, and introduce them to exam techniques that help them perform their best under pressure.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. You can also message them before booking to discuss your child's specific needs and goals.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors undergoes a thorough background check. We are very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply to our platform, so you can be sure your child is in safe hands.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. 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 online English tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile. There are no hidden fees or long-term contracts, so you can book lessons as and when you need them.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. As their tutor helps them overcome challenges and they start seeing their grades improve, their self-belief grows naturally.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing tools. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection.
How quickly will we see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our tailored approach means you often see progress quickly. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. The biggest change parents often notice first is a boost in their child's confidence and attitude towards the subject.
Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or guitar?
We offer tutoring for a huge range of skills beyond the school curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or even learn a new language for fun, you can find an expert tutor to help them explore their interests.
My child has a very busy schedule. How flexible is tutoring?
Very flexible. Because our tutors are based across the UK, you can find sessions in the evenings, at weekends, and even during school holidays. You can schedule lessons one at a time, so it's easy to fit them around sports clubs and other commitments.
How is this different from the support my child gets at school?
School teachers do an amazing job, but with a full class, they can't always give each student individual attention. Tutoring complements schoolwork by providing a dedicated space for your child to focus on their specific challenges and learn at their own speed.
