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
Can a tutor help my child get the grades needed for Winstanley or Wigan & Leigh College?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students secure the strong GCSE English grades—often a 5 or above—required for competitive A-Level courses at respected local colleges. They can focus on the specific skills and exam techniques needed to help your child achieve their goal.
My child hopes to go to a university like Manchester or Liverpool. Can tutoring help?
Yes, a strong foundation at GCSE is the first step. By helping your child secure a great English grade now, a tutor can help keep those doors open for applications to top North West universities in the future. They build not just knowledge, but also the confidence and study skills needed for higher education.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We understand that the right fit is crucial 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.
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 qualifications on their profile. We recommend messaging a few to discuss your child's specific needs before booking. It's all about finding someone your child will feel comfortable learning with.
My child's confidence in English is low. Can a tutor help with that?
Definitely. One of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring is the confidence boost it provides. In a supportive environment, your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed, work at their own pace, and celebrate small wins, which makes a huge difference to their self-belief.
How much can tutoring improve my child's GCSE English grade?
Every child is different, but the focused support of a tutor can have a significant impact. We find that our support can help improve a student's GCSE results by up to 2 grades, turning a potential pass into a grade they can be truly proud of.
How much does an English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own prices, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices typically start from around £20 per hour and vary based on the tutor's experience and qualifications. There are no hidden fees or contracts, so you have complete control.
How do I know the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has been through a rigorous selection process, including an interview and a background check. We only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the best.
How do the 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. It's a simple and effective way to learn from the comfort of your home.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one lesson a week is a great starting point, especially in the run-up to exams. However, it's completely flexible. You can discuss what works best for your child's goals and your family's schedule directly with your chosen tutor.
What happens in the first lesson?
The first lesson is usually about getting to know each other. The tutor will chat with your child about what they find easy, what they struggle with, and what they want to achieve. It's a relaxed way to build a plan for future sessions and make sure it's a good fit.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also offer support in a wide range of other areas. You can find tutors for modern languages, coding, learning a musical instrument like guitar, and much more.
