Holly E
Holly has been tutoring my son in English GCSE for the last half term. He has found the lessons very useful, working in a logical order through the different aspects of the curriculum. Holly is friendly, approachable and encouraging.
My Son has just had his mock exam results and has moved from just hitting an exam grade boundary to being 2 points off the next grade up. We are very pleased at his progress in a short space of time.

Mamun A
My son is really improving since starting lessons with Mamun. From the start of the lesson getting almost all questions wrong to by the end completely understanding it all. Tested him a few days later and he got almost every question right without any help at all he remembered all the punctuation in all questions, shocked how much he's improved from just one lesson on it! Mamun's teaching is brilliant and it really seems to stick in my sons head. Also my son is very fussy with his ASD/ADHD and is often open about his feelings towards people, especially new people most often than not he will say he doesn't like this person because of this or that, but he said he likes his tutor and wants to do more lessons which is brilliant. Mamun is always on time, very patient and explains thoroughly, he gives brilliant feedback afterwards too. Highly recommend this tutor and I'm glad I chose him rather than someone else.

Nadiah K
Nadiah is an AMAZING English tutor.
Nadiah is very reliable, organised and efficient, prompting and guiding my son to keep on track outside of sessions aswell. I have had feedback from school after just a few months that the quality of my sons writing has improved significantly and teachers have asked if he has been doing anything different.
My son is also developing more of an interest in the subject which has been really nice to see.

Jeremy B
After the first lesson my son announced “That was amazing Mum, you need to watch the video, he was SUCH a good teacher”. This couldn’t have been more different to previous feedback on our attempts to find an English tutor. I’m delighted that Jeremy is structured in his lessons, but also his tone is very friendly and fun! My 12 year old son has Tourettes and ADHD, and has been quite unwell. It’s also done wonders for my mental health knowing Jeremy is guiding my son through English, after seeing the videos I do not have this skill! 100% recommend him!

Michelle P
Wonderful English Tutor!
Michelle has been an incredible English tutor for our daughter Sarah. She always starts each session with a fun “mind boggle,” which Sarah absolutely loves — it sets such a positive and energising tone for the lesson. From the moment she enters the class, Michelle makes Sarah smile.
Her lessons are interesting, engaging, and thoughtfully planned. Michelle brings a fantastic mix of humour, enthusiasm, and kindness to every session, and it truly shows in Sarah’s enjoyment and progress. She has a wonderful teaching style that keeps Sarah motivated and excited to learn.
We are so grateful for Michelle’s support and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an English tutor who can make learning both effective and fun.
Thank you Michelle.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child get the grades needed for Winstanley College or St John Rigby?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors are experts in the GCSE curriculum and have extensive experience helping students secure the grades needed for competitive sixth forms. They can focus on the specific areas your child needs to improve to meet those entry requirements.
My child is aiming for a university like Manchester or Lancaster. Can a tutor support this goal?
Definitely. Our tutors can help your child build the strong academic foundation in English that's essential for A-Levels and respected universities. They focus on developing the critical thinking and analytical skills that admissions tutors look for.
How do I pick the right English tutor for my child?
You can use our search filters to find tutors with experience in specific areas, like GCSE English Language or Literature. You can also watch their introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and send them a message to discuss your child's needs before booking.
How much do online English tutors cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which typically start from around £22 per hour. You can see each tutor's price on their profile, so you can easily find an experienced tutor who fits your family's budget.
What if my child doesn't get on with their tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for your child's 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 do I know the tutors are any good?
We take quality and safety very seriously. We accept only 1 in 8 tutors who apply to our platform. Every tutor is interviewed by a member of our team and has their ID and background checked, so you can feel confident you're choosing a true professional.
My child has lost their confidence in English. Can a tutor help?
Yes. One of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring is rebuilding confidence. Our tutors create a friendly, patient, and encouraging environment where your child can learn at their own pace and feel safe to make mistakes, which is often the key to making real progress.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple and effective. All lessons take place in our online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam and a stable internet connection.
Do you offer tutoring for other subjects or skills besides English?
We do! We have expert tutors across more than 300 subjects, from Maths and Science to modern languages. We also offer support for practical skills like learning a musical instrument or coding, so we can help your child explore their interests beyond the school curriculum.
How long does a typical tutoring session last?
Most sessions are one hour long, as this gives enough time to cover a topic in detail without your child losing focus. However, you can discuss and agree on a different session length with your tutor if needed.
Are the lessons recorded?
Yes, every lesson is automatically recorded. This is great for your child as they can re-watch explanations to help with their revision. It also gives you complete peace of mind, as you can review a session at any time.
How quickly can we get started?
You can get started very quickly. Many of our tutors are available to book within a few days. Simply find a tutor you like, send them a message to check their availability, and you can schedule your first lesson.
