Raquel A
Supportive and Structured English Tutor
Hello and welcome! My name is Raquel and I look forward to meeting you soon. In the meantime, allow me to share with you why I choose to tutor: Mixed memories of middle school and college spring to mind. Excitement bubbling up to return to school after a fun and well spend summer holiday with family and friends. What formed part of the anticipation was the sense of being ready. Ready to sit in class with fellow classmates, ready to take home homework, planning and organising assignments. It may seem as if I had forgotten the stress and pressure I found myself under in the previous school year,...

Josh L
Josh has been tutoring my son for several weeks now. When asking my son what he thought of the sessions she shared that the lessons were varied and he makes it interesting and fun, ( My Son is in year 10 - age 14) We were looking for a tutor to help my son with his English as he had a difficult year last year with his teacher and it became a dread and a stress. Having Josh tutoring him has given him more confidence in the subject. He is keen to have the lesson and always comes down afterwards and shares something good about it. He seems to be progressing well at school and I know these sessions can only be helping with that.

Grace B
My daughter worked with Grace as she wanted to re-take her English Language GCSE to improve her grade. My daughter thought Grace was a fantastic teacher. After her first lesson she said she had learnt more in an hour with her than she had in her previous two years at school! She has a lovely friendly manner and put my daughter at ease straight away. She also puts a lot into the lessons through preparation, marking and generally guiding the learning where it's needed most. As an examiner herself she also has a clear understanding of what students need to work on to succeed. Couldn't recommend her highly enough and whether or not my daughter does improve her grade, I know that the lessons were worthwhile. Thank you Grace!

John M
John has been nothing short of a miracle worker with our Year 9 son. In a matter of a few lessons his confidence in English has really grown. He was previously really disengaged with English & it was a real effort to get him to spend any amount of time on it. Now with John’s encouragement, he actually shows me his English homework & wants to improve, work at it. Highly recommend

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.
Can a tutor help my child secure a place at a college like Barton Peveril or Peter Symonds?
Yes, absolutely. Many top colleges have specific entry requirements, like a Grade 5 in GCSE English. Our tutors can focus specifically on the skills and exam techniques needed to help your child meet and exceed those requirements, strengthening their college applications.
My child goes to Crofton School. Can we find a tutor familiar with the curriculum?
Yes. Many of our tutors are experienced teachers and examiners who are very familiar with the AQA, Edexcel, and other exam boards used in schools across the UK, including those in the Stubbington area. You can view their experience on their profile and message them to ask about specifics.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
Start by looking at tutor profiles to see their experience, qualifications, and what other parents have said about them. You can send messages to a few tutors to ask about their approach before booking. It's all about finding someone your child connects with.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your first tutor for any reason, 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 specifically with the GCSE English Language exam?
Our English tutors are brilliant at breaking down the English Language exam. They can help your child understand exactly what examiners are looking for, from structuring answers to analysing unseen texts, giving them the tools they need to secure that all-important Grade 5 or higher.
How do online lessons work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing, so your child can work on everything from essay plans to grammar exercises with their tutor in real-time.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices are set by the individual tutors and vary based on their experience. 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.
Are your tutors safe and background-checked?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor is identity and background-checked before they can join Tutorful. We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
Sometimes, a lack of confidence is the biggest barrier to learning. In a one-to-one lesson, your child has a safe space to ask questions and work at their own pace without fear of getting it wrong. This supportive environment helps them feel more capable and positive about their abilities.
How long will it take to see an improvement in my child's results?
Every child learns differently, but consistency is key. Our students often start feeling more confident after just a few sessions. We know our approach works, as 90% of students who use Tutorful improve their academic results by at least one grade.
What if our family schedule is really busy?
That's the great thing about online tutoring. You're not limited to tutors in your immediate area, so you have a much wider choice of available times. You can easily find and book sessions that fit around school, clubs, and family commitments.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn something like coding or music?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the core curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn a new language, master the guitar, or get to grips with Python, you can find a friendly and experienced tutor to help them explore their interests.
