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.

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.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is worried about getting into a competitive sixth form. Can a tutor help with this?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors have extensive experience helping students prepare for entry into competitive sixth forms. They can focus on strengthening your child's WJEC exam technique and building the core English skills needed to meet high academic benchmarks, giving them the best possible chance of securing a place.
We're aiming for a place at Cardiff University. Can a tutor support with the skills needed for that level?
Yes, definitely. Our tutors can help your child develop the advanced analytical and essay-writing skills that Russell Group universities like Cardiff University look for. They can work on building a strong foundation at GCSE that will serve them well through A-Levels and into higher education.
Can a tutor help with the specific WJEC English curriculum?
Yes. Many of our English tutors are very familiar with the WJEC syllabus used in Wales. You can check their profile bios or message them directly to confirm they have experience with the specific texts and exam requirements your child is working on.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We understand that finding the right personal fit is crucial. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. You can also message tutors before booking to discuss your child's specific needs and ensure they're a great match.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, so prices vary based on their experience. You can see the hourly rate clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, allowing you to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
How do the online lessons actually work?
Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It’s a secure and engaging way for your child to learn from the comfort of home.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed an ID check and has a valid DBS background check. We also interview every tutor and only accept 1 in 8 who apply, so you can be confident you're choosing from the best.
How can tutoring help if my child has lost their confidence in English?
Confidence is key. A one-to-one tutor creates a safe, patient environment where your child can ask questions without fear of judgment. By breaking down difficult topics and celebrating small wins, they help rebuild your child's self-belief, which often has a positive impact on their schoolwork.
How do I know if tutoring is working?
You'll often see the results first in your child's growing confidence. Tutors provide regular feedback, and you'll be able to see their progress through their improved understanding and, ultimately, their school results. We're proud that 90% of students who use Tutorful improve by at least one grade.
How many lessons will my child need?
This is completely flexible and depends on your child's goals. Some students have a weekly lesson to stay on top of their work, while others might book a few sessions to prepare for a specific exam. You can discuss this directly with your chosen tutor.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills like coding or a musical instrument?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the core curriculum! While we have fantastic tutors for Maths, English, and Science, you can also find experts to teach your child skills like coding, playing the guitar, learning a new language, and much more.
