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

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child attends The Gateway Academy. Can a tutor help them specifically with their GCSE English curriculum?
Absolutely. Our tutors are experienced with the main UK exam boards, like AQA and Edexcel. They can tailor lessons to match the specific texts, poetry, and exam requirements your child is working on at The Gateway Academy, giving them targeted support where it's needed most.
We're hoping for a place at Palmer's College. Can a tutor help my child get the GCSE English grade they need?
Yes, that's a very common goal for families we help. Many local colleges look for at least a Grade 4 or 5 in GCSE English. Our tutors specialise in helping students secure these crucial grades by focusing on exam technique and building understanding. We can even help students improve their GCSE results by up to 2 grades.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check each tutor's experience on their profile. You can also send messages to tutors before booking to ask about their approach and ensure they're a good match for your child's personality and learning needs.
What if my child doesn't get on 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 for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors undergoes a background check. We are very selective, and only 1 in 8 tutors who apply are accepted onto our platform, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
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. There are no hidden fees or long-term contracts, so you can find quality support that fits your budget.
How can tutoring help my child feel more confident in English?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might not ask in class. As they start to grasp tricky concepts and see their skills improve, their self-belief grows naturally.
How do online lessons actually work?
Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard for drawing and sharing notes, and a space to upload documents like essays or past papers. It's a simple and effective way for your child to learn from home.
Can a tutor help with specific texts, like 'Macbeth' or poetry?
Definitely. Many of our English tutors are specialists in the set texts for GCSEs. They can help your child break down complex themes, analyse key quotes, and understand the context of texts like 'Macbeth' or the poetry anthology, making them much less intimidating.
How many lessons will my child need to see an improvement?
This is different for every child. Some students need a few sessions to prepare for an exam, while others benefit from weekly support throughout the school year. You can discuss your child's goals with your chosen tutor, who can recommend a plan that works for them.
Is tutoring just for academic subjects, or can you help with other skills?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also have experts who can teach practical and creative skills. You can find tutors for everything from coding and learning a musical instrument to public speaking.
What if we need to cancel or reschedule a lesson?
We understand that life happens! You can easily manage your schedule through the platform. We just ask that you give your tutor at least 24 hours' notice if you need to make a change to a booked lesson.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
If things aren’t right with your first lesson just let us know. We’ll pay for
your next lesson with a new tutor – and even help you find them.
