Expert GCSE English Tutor
22 students received their GCSE results this year - my biggest Y11 cohort yet, and with record success: 🎓 76% achieved top grades (7–9). 🍎 Every single student improved by at least one grade - and 80% jumped by two grades or more. ✏️ Four students were previously struggling at grade 3 - all passed, and two went on to secure a grade 6. 🏫 One student rose from a grade 4 at the end of Year 10 to a grade 9 at GCSE!

David J
Experienced English Tutor
When it comes to History, I have always loved the subject, leading me to secure my place at the University of Leeds and to follow through my degree and gain a 2:1. While doing so, I had a fantastic time living in Leeds, which is why I came back to live here. My focus was on the British Empire, but having studied History all the way through school and university, my experience with the subject is very broad. For example I studied Britain from 1880-1980 and Nazi Germany at A Level, and American foreign policy and race relations and the Russian Revolution at GCSE. History is one of the most important...

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child prepare for the Lincolnshire 11+ exam?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our English tutors have specific experience helping children build the core comprehension, grammar, and writing skills needed to feel confident and prepared for the 11+.
My child needs a Grade 5 in GCSE English to get into a local college. Can a tutor help?
This is one of the most common reasons parents come to us. Our tutors are experts at helping students with exam technique, understanding the mark scheme, and building confidence. We know how crucial that pass is, and our tutors can help improve your child's GCSE results by up to two grades.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can read tutor profiles to see their experience, qualifications, and what other parents say in their reviews. You can also send a message to a tutor before booking to discuss your child's needs and make sure it's a good fit.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. With 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 actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our online classroom, which has a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
Are your tutors background checked?
Yes. Your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors are background-checked and we interview every single one. We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply to join us.
How can a tutor help my child if they've lost confidence in English?
A one-to-one tutor provides a safe, patient, and encouraging space for your child. They can go back over topics your child may have missed, explain things in a new way, and celebrate small wins to help rebuild their self-belief.
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, so you can find an experienced tutor that fits your family's budget.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families choose to have one lesson a week, but it's completely flexible. You can discuss what's best for your child's goals with your chosen tutor and decide on a schedule that works for you.
What makes Tutorful different?
We give you the choice of the UK's best tutors, all in one place. With thousands of reviews from parents just like you, you can book with confidence. We're proud to have a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100+ customer reviews.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
While we have thousands of tutors for core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also offer support for hobbies and life skills. You can find expert tutors for everything from learning the guitar and coding to public speaking.
How long are the tutoring sessions?
The standard lesson length is one hour, as this gives enough time to dive into a topic properly. However, you can discuss different lesson lengths with your tutor if your child would benefit from a shorter or longer session.
