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
We're preparing for the 11+ for grammar schools in Slough like Langley and Herschel. Can we find a specialist tutor?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in 11+ preparation and have specific experience with the requirements for local grammar schools. You can use our search filters to find tutors who highlight 11+ expertise in their profiles.
My child hopes to study at a university like Royal Holloway. Can a tutor help with A-Level English?
Definitely. A strong A-Level in English is crucial for many university courses. Our tutors can provide in-depth support with texts, critical analysis, and essay writing to help your child secure the grades they need for their university application.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
The best way is to read tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. You can message tutors for free to discuss your child's needs before booking. It's all about finding someone your child will connect with.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, allowing you to find an expert who fits your family's budget.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. 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 can a tutor help my child if they've lost confidence in English?
Confidence is key to learning. A private tutor provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By breaking down topics and celebrating small wins, they can help rebuild your child's self-belief.
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 way to share documents. All they need is a laptop or computer with a stable internet connection, a webcam, and a microphone.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has undergone a thorough background check. We also interview every applicant and only accept 1 in 8, so you can have complete peace of mind.
Is tutoring just for school subjects, or could my child learn a new skill?
It's for both! While we have thousands of tutors for academic subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also have experts who can teach hobbies and life skills, from learning to play the guitar or piano to coding in Python.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
Most lessons are one hour long. This gives enough time to dive into a topic properly without your child losing focus. However, you can always discuss different lesson lengths with your chosen tutor to find what works best.
How often should my child have lessons?
Most families find that one lesson a week is a great way to build momentum and see steady progress. For more intensive support, like leading up to an exam, you might arrange more frequent sessions with your tutor.
What happens if we need to cancel or reschedule a lesson?
Life happens! We have a simple 24-hour cancellation policy. As long as you give your tutor at least 24 hours' notice, you can cancel or reschedule your lesson without any charge.
