***Online lessons only ***Hi my name is Siobhan! I am a dedicated, patient and enthusiastic primary teacher who has 8 years experience in different roles within the primary and secondary education system including supporting children with SEN as well as SATs interventions. I believe all pupils have the capacity to succeed and surpass their goals, if they're given the right support and guidance. It is important that a tutor and student have a good relationship that allows for the pupil to feel confident and reassured enough to admit when they don’t understand or make mistakes in their work.

Emily H
Enthusiastic English Tutor
I am a qualified teacher that aims to tailor my approach to the individual student by setting clear goals and focusing on areas in which to grow confidence. I believe effective tutoring is about delivering complex concepts in simple terms with patience, encouragement and enthusiasm. Also, I believe that encouraging deep questioning on topics where there may be misunderstanding or a lack of enthusiasm is an excellent learning mechanism. Developing strong relationships with students means that parallels can be drawn between what is being studied, and the students’ own life experiences, which makes f...

Bavneet S
Qualified and Experienced English Tutor
I am a qualified teacher that is hardworking and always trying to help others especially when it comes to education. I like to support others and make sure that the person fully understands what is being taught before moving on to the next topic. if there are barriers to learning which may arise then I will find other methods to make it easier and see the equation or mathematical problem from a different view.I intend to firstly explain the theory behind the topic whilst showing examples along the way making sure there is a full understanding otherwise revisit the area of misunderstanding.

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.
My child wants to apply for A-Levels at Featherstone High School. Can a tutor help them get the right GCSE English grade?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students meet the entry requirements for competitive sixth forms. They can focus specifically on the literary analysis and essay-writing skills needed to secure a grade 6 or higher in GCSE English, giving your child the best chance of getting a place on their chosen A-Level courses.
How can a tutor help my child move from conversational English to academic English?
This is a common challenge, and our tutors are experts at bridging that gap. They use one-to-one sessions to focus on the specific language of literary analysis, helping your child understand complex vocabulary, structure formal essays, and build sophisticated arguments that examiners are looking for.
We live in Southall. How does online tutoring work if the tutor isn't local?
That's the great thing about online tutoring! Location is no barrier. Your child can connect with the best tutor for their needs, whether they're in London or Edinburgh. All lessons happen in our interactive online classroom with video chat and a shared whiteboard, so it feels just like they're in the same room.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We want to make sure it's the perfect fit. If for any reason you and your child don't get on with your first tutor, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor. It's really important to us that your child feels comfortable and supported.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and read reviews from other parents. We recommend shortlisting a few and sending them a message to ask about their experience with the specific areas your child needs help with, like GCSE essay technique or poetry analysis. It’s a great way to find the perfect match.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, so prices vary depending on their experience and qualifications. You can see the price per hour clearly on each tutor's profile, allowing you to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
How do you make sure the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor is background-checked and has their ID and qualifications verified. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best in a safe, professional environment.
My child lacks confidence in writing essays. How can a tutor help?
A tutor can break down the process of essay writing into simple, manageable steps. They'll work with your child on planning a structure, forming a strong argument, finding the right quotes to use as evidence, and refining their writing style. This targeted support can make a huge difference to their confidence.
What happens in a typical online English lesson?
Each lesson is tailored to your child. It might start with a quick review of the last session's topic, then move on to tackling a new concept, like analysing a poem or planning an essay. Tutors use the interactive whiteboard to share resources, work through examples together, and provide instant feedback in a supportive way.
How long are the tutoring sessions and how often should they be?
Most sessions are one hour long. We usually recommend one session per week to build momentum and keep learning consistent, but it's completely flexible. You can discuss what works best for your child and your family's schedule directly with your chosen tutor.
How quickly can we see an improvement in my child's grades?
Every child is different, but consistent one-to-one support often leads to a boost in confidence very quickly. Many parents tell us they see a change in their child's attitude towards English within just a few sessions. In fact, 90% of our students improve their grades by at least one level.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can you help with other skills?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we're experts in core academic subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also have brilliant tutors who can teach musical instruments like guitar, coding languages like Python, or even help with university applications.
