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.

Brilliant English tutors who you’ll really click with.
Our experienced tutors take the time to understand where each student needs to focus and their preferred way of learning. They make a measurable difference – 90% of all students improve by at least one grade.
We're preparing for the 11+ for schools like Woodford County High. Can I find a specialist tutor?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our English tutors have specific experience in preparing children for the 11+ and other grammar school entrance exams. You can check their profiles for this expertise and even message them beforehand to discuss your child's specific needs and the local school requirements.
My child is aiming for top GCSE grades to get into a competitive A-Level course. How can a tutor help?
Our tutors are brilliant at targeting the specific skills needed for higher GCSE grades. They can help your child master essay structure, deepen their textual analysis, and refine their exam technique. This focused support can make a huge difference, with many students improving their final GCSE results by up to two grades.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can read detailed profiles, watch introductory videos, and check ratings from other parents to get a real feel for each tutor. We recommend messaging a few to discuss your child's goals. Finding someone your child connects with is key to building their confidence.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and level of study. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles, so you can find an expert tutor that fits your budget.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is essential 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.
Are your tutors safe and background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed a background check. We are also very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
How does online tutoring actually work?
All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing, making it easy for your child to learn and collaborate with their tutor in real-time, from anywhere with an internet connection.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
One-to-one tutoring provides a safe and supportive space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. A great tutor celebrates small wins and patiently works through challenges, which helps your child feel more capable and positive about their abilities.
How long does it take to see an improvement in my child's English?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our tailored approach gets results. The focused, one-to-one attention helps children grasp concepts much faster than in a group setting. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.
Can tutoring help with specific areas like essay writing or grammar?
Definitely. That's one of the main benefits of one-to-one tutoring. If your child struggles with a particular area, their tutor can create entire lessons focused on strengthening those skills, whether it's building vocabulary, understanding sentence structure, or planning an essay.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have thousands of tutors for academic subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also have experts who can teach practical and creative skills. You can find tutors for everything from learning a musical instrument and coding to public speaking.
What happens in a typical English lesson?
A typical lesson is tailored to your child. It might start with a quick chat about what they covered in school that week, then move onto working through a specific challenge, like analysing a poem or planning a story. The tutor will use the interactive whiteboard to share examples and work through problems together.
