I am a Royal Holloway, University London graduate with a BA and MA, specialising in arts and humanities.

Gearoid C
Gearoid supported my son with GCSE English during a key transition period in Year 11. My son had moved schools and was adjusting to a different GCSE specification, which had left noticeable gaps in his knowledge. Gearoid helped him bridge those gaps methodically and clarified the expectations of the exam board.
From the very first session, there was a shift in confidence. My son came out saying, “So I’m not stupid.” Over time, that developed into him saying he “felt clever.” For a student who can struggle with processing speed and exam anxiety, this was a significant and meaningful change.
Gearoid is calm, professional and thoughtful in his approach. He communicates clearly, is reliable, and genuinely cares about his students’ progress. I am grateful for the role he played in rebuilding both understanding and belief.

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.
