Grace K
Friendly tutor teaching law, english & geography English
I run tailored, results-focused lessons that help students build confidence, stay motivated and master key topics. Each session begins with a quick recap to refresh prior knowledge, explores core material through past papers, quizzes, or interactive exercises and ends with a consolidation question to cement understanding and reinforce learning.I use a traffic light system (green, amber, red) to identify which areas need the most support, ensuring lessons are focused and effective. I can also go through any feedback received from homework and mark past papers outside of lesson time if requested.With...

Megan G
Megan is a wonderful tutor!
My son has really enjoyed the sessions with her and she adapts them to ensure he is fully understanding the teaching.
Megan provides an overview of feedback after to each session which allows me to understand what she has covered in the session and how to future support my son.
I cannot recommend her enough!!

Harry L
Our son has dyslexia and had taken his GCSE English several times without passing. He was demoralized with the whole process. We had 6 weeks before the next attempt and we were lucky enough to find Harry. He said that in his first lesson with him he had learnt more about exam technique than he had in all of his GCSE lessons. Today he got a grade 5 which seemed impossible before Harry's tutor sessions. Thankyou very much Harry, our family is extremely grateful for your particular teaching skills and supporting our son to success.

I would recommend Phil to anyone. He taught GCSE English Language to my son, helping him achieve a good grade and more importantly building his confidence and skills. Phil was kind, supportive and explained things very clearly and he always left useful feedback.

Hi Myles,
I just wanted to send you a heartfelt thank-you for the English lessons you gave my son. After only three sessions with you, he managed to pass — and we couldn’t be happier! He really enjoyed your lessons and said you made everything easy to understand and enjoyable.I truly appreciate the time, patience, and encouragement you gave him. It’s made a huge difference to his confidence and attitude toward English. Thanks again for all your help — we’re both very grateful!

Amazing tutor! I went from a weak grade 3 in English Language to being just one mark off a 6. Lessons were clear, supportive, and really boosted my confidence. I couldn’t have done it without their help and would 100% recommend.

Ameela R
Ameena tutored our son for an English language retake and he got an 8! He went up 3 grades from a 5. Her tutoring was focussed and responsive and she did it all over about 7 weeks. Could not ask for more. Thank you so much Ameena!

Sam H
I started working with Sam quite late in the A-Level year, but despite the limited time he put in so much effort and support. He completely rebuilt my confidence in English Language and helped take me from a B to an A — the first A I’d ever achieved in English, and I got it in my actual A-Levels. He had me writing answers every week and always gave incredibly thorough, clear feedback that really helped me improve quickly. I genuinely wouldn’t have achieved my grade without him and can’t recommend him enough.

Nicholas bolsters his student’s confidence while supporting the student’s development and encouraging him to realise his goal. Nicholas is the tutor that every student wishes for!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
We live in Tooting and are aiming for Graveney School. Can a tutor help with the 11+ Wandsworth Test?
Absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in 11+ preparation and are very familiar with the format and demands of the Wandsworth Test. You can filter for tutors with this specific experience to find the perfect match to help your child build the skills and confidence they need.
My child is worried about the verbal reasoning part of the local school exams. Can I find a specialist tutor?
Yes. Verbal and non-verbal reasoning are common areas where children need extra support. You can easily find tutors who have proven experience in helping students master these specific skills, using practice papers and targeted techniques to make them feel much more comfortable.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's all about finding the right fit. You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check ratings from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs before booking to make sure you find someone you feel comfortable with.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match for your child. 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 do I know the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and has their ID verified. We personally interview each applicant and are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which are displayed clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study, but you can easily filter by price to find an expert tutor who fits your budget.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
One-to-one tutoring creates a safe space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By working at their pace and celebrating small wins, a tutor can help them overcome learning blocks and start to believe in their own abilities, which is often the biggest step towards success.
How do online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. All they need is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection. It's simple, secure, and effective.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something else?
While we cover all academic subjects from the 11+ to degree level, we also have tutors for a huge range of hobbies and skills. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, master coding in Python, or learn a new language, we can help.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one session a week works best, as it provides consistency without being overwhelming. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange a schedule that works for your child and their tutor, whether that's more frequent lessons before an exam or fortnightly sessions.
How can I track my child's progress?
The best way is through open communication with your tutor. They will be happy to provide regular feedback on how your child is doing, what they've been working on, and the next steps. You'll also see their growing confidence and understanding for yourself.
What kind of results can we expect?
While every child's journey is different, our focus is on building confidence and understanding that leads to real progress. We're proud that 90% of our students improve by at least one grade, and we have over 4,100 reviews from happy parents rating us 4.6/5 stars.
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.
