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 is hoping to get into BHASVIC or Varndean. Can a tutor help with this?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are very experienced in helping students secure the GCSE grades needed for competitive sixth form colleges. They can focus on the specific skills and exam techniques required to help your child stand out and meet the entry requirements for A-Levels at places like BHASVIC and Varndean.
We live in Seaford, are the tutors local?
Because all our tutoring is online, your child can connect with the very best English tutors from across the UK, not just those in the Seaford area. This gives you a much wider choice of specialists, ensuring you find the perfect match for your child's needs and personality.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can read detailed profiles, watch introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend looking for a tutor who has specific experience with your child's age group and goals. You can also send them a message before booking to make sure they're the right fit.
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 for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
Are the tutors qualified to teach GCSE English?
Yes. Many of our English tutors are qualified teachers or experienced examiners who specialise in the GCSE curriculum. They have an in-depth understanding of the AQA, Edexcel, and OCR exam boards and know exactly what's needed to help students improve their grades.
How can a tutor help my child with their confidence in English?
One-to-one attention from a supportive tutor can work wonders for confidence. When your child has a safe space to ask questions without fear of getting it wrong, they start to see that they *can* understand tricky topics. This positive reinforcement is key to building their self-belief.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, so prices vary depending on their experience. You can easily see the price per hour on each tutor's profile, making it simple to find an excellent tutor who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees.
How do online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It’s a simple and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of home.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors has passed an enhanced DBS background check before they can teach on our platform. We also interview every applicant and only accept 1 in 8, so you can be completely confident in their quality and professionalism.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
The standard session length is one hour, which is usually ideal for keeping students engaged and focused. However, you can discuss different session lengths with your tutor to find what works best for your child.
How many lessons will my child need to see an improvement?
This really depends on your child's individual goals. Some students need a few sessions to prepare for an exam, while others benefit from regular weekly support throughout the school year. You can discuss a plan with your tutor after the first session.
Do you offer tutoring for subjects other than core academic ones?
Yes, we do! While we have experts for all school subjects from Primary to A-Level, we also have talented tutors who can teach practical skills like coding and music theory, or even help your child learn a new language or how to play the guitar.
