Kathy F
Creative English tutor
I am a Royal Holloway, University London graduate with a BA and MA, specialising in arts and humanities. I am very keen to help pupils to learn and fully understand what they might not get in a classroom environment. Whilst at school and even at university, I had one-on-one help and I would not have got the grades if it was not for this extra help. That is why I want to help those who may need the extra help to get the grades they want.I did my A levels at a school as opposed to a college and this gave me the experience to work with the lower parts of the school (junior and senior). I would help...

Hadika M
Dedicated English tutor
As a Chemical Engineering graduate from the University of Manchester, I saw firsthand how many of my classmates struggled with Maths and English. It wasn't just a few; it was a common challenge. Seeing their difficulties sparked something in me. I found that I genuinely loved helping them understand concepts that seemed confusing. The feeling of watching them grasp a difficult idea was incredibly rewarding, and that's when I discovered my passion for teaching.I strongly disagree with the idea that people are naturally "good" at one subject and "bad" at another. I believe that anyone can learn anything...

John H
Experienced English tutor
Hi, I’m John, I’m 23 and I’m currently studying law at Demontfort University. I have been tutoring now for almost two years mainly in maths from KS1 up to GCSE and have developed the knowledge and skills to be able to tailor my lessons to best suit the student as no one style will work best for everyone. For example, some students may benefit from shorter lessons, some may benefit from taking the lessons at a much slower pace, some may prefer to just dive straight into questions and many other factors that we will be able to identify together and use to customise the lesson to best suit the stude...

John M
John has been an excellent English IGCSE tutor. He is very organised, enthusiastic and communicates clearly. He quickly built a strong rapport with my daughter, putting her at ease, and she is really enjoying the lessons and getting a lot out of them. John is helping her to build confidence, structure exam answers and prepare effectively for revision, and I feel the tutoring will be very beneficial in the run-up to her exams.

Phil is an excellent teacher. We wish we had found him earlier. He was engaging and patient and has helped my son, who is dyslexic, to finally pass his English Language GCSE. Thank you so much. We can highly recommend him.

Ben D
Ben has been a great tutor for my 16 year old doing his English GCSEs. Ben's tuition has improved my son's grade from a 4 up to between a 5-8, depending on the topic, in just a few months. He has also hugely improved his confidence, and his writing ability in other subjects such as History has improved as well. Ben has a relaxed, respectful and friendly approach that my son has really gotten on with, and he is enjoying feeling more confident for his English Language and Literature exams this year. I highly recommend Ben for your child's tuition.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
We're preparing for the Calderdale 11+. Can I find a tutor with specific experience?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our English tutors have experience preparing children for the 11+ and other grammar school entrance exams. You can use our search filters to find tutors who specialise in this and read their profiles to see if they're the right fit for your child's goals.
My child hopes to go to Greenhead or Rochdale Sixth Form College. Can a tutor help with the GCSE grades they need?
Definitely. Our tutors are experts in the GCSE English curriculum and know what it takes to secure those crucial higher grades. They can work with your child on specific areas, from essay technique to exam practice, to help them get the results they need for their post-16 applications.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
The best way is to read tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. You can message tutors for free to ask about their experience with the 11+ or GCSEs before booking. It's all about finding someone your child will connect with.
What if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. That’s why we have a 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.
How much does online English tutoring cost in Todmorden?
Our tutors set their own prices, which typically start from £15 an hour. The cost depends on the tutor's experience and the level of study. You can see each tutor's price clearly on their profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget.
Are all the tutors safe and background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked, and we interview every applicant. We're very selective and only accept 1 in 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?
One-to-one tutoring provides a safe space for your child to ask questions they might be too shy to ask in class. By working at their pace and celebrating small wins, a tutor can help them overcome learning hurdles and see that they are capable of succeeding.
How does online tutoring work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and document sharing, so your child and their tutor can work together just as they would in person. All you need is a laptop and a stable internet connection.
How quickly will we see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our data shows that 90% of students improve by at least one grade with our tutors. The key is consistent, personalised support that targets the areas where your child needs it most.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also offer a huge range of other skills. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or learn a new language, you can find a brilliant tutor for them here.
What happens in a typical English lesson?
A lesson is tailored to your child's needs. It could start with a review of their schoolwork, move on to practising a specific skill like analysing poetry, and end with planning their next steps. The tutor will focus on whatever will help your child make the most progress.
Can we fit lessons around football practice and other clubs?
Yes, that's one of the main benefits of online tutoring. Our tutors offer flexible scheduling, including evenings and weekends, so you can easily find a time that fits around your family's busy life without any extra travel.
