Find an Online English Tutor in Verwood to Help Your Child Thrive
Watching your child prepare for their next steps, like the 11+ exams for Bournemouth and Poole's grammar schools, can feel like a lot of pressure. You might worry that the standard school curriculum doesn't quite cover the advanced comprehension or verbal reasoning skills they need to really shine.
Finding the right one-to-one English tutor can make all the difference. It’s about giving your child a supportive space where they can build confidence, master tricky topics, and feel fully prepared for the challenges ahead, from primary school right through to their GCSEs.

One-to-One English Support That Makes a Real Difference
We believe the best learning happens when it’s personal. That’s why we help you find a tutor who really gets to know your child—their learning style, their strengths, and the areas where they need a bit more help. All our tutors are background-checked and hand-picked, with only 1 in 8 applicants making it onto our platform, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands. Every online lesson is tailored to what your child needs right now. If they're preparing for the 11+, their tutor can focus on specific comprehension techniques. If they're tackling GCSEs, a session might be spent breaking down quotes from 'An Inspector Calls'. This focused approach is why 90% of students who use Tutorful improve by at least one grade. Finding the right support shouldn't add to your to-do list. With Tutorful, you can connect with the best English tutors from across the UK, right from your home in Verwood.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is preparing for the 11+ for grammar schools in Bournemouth and Poole. Can a tutor help with this?
Absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in 11+ preparation. They can help your child build the specific comprehension, vocabulary, and verbal reasoning skills needed for these exams, giving them a calm and confident approach on the day.
We're thinking ahead to GCSEs at Ferndown Upper or QE School. Can we find a tutor experienced with the curriculum?
Yes, you can. When you search, you can read tutor profiles to find those with experience in helping students achieve top GCSE grades. They can tailor lessons to the specific texts and exam boards your child's school uses, ensuring they feel ready and supported.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can read reviews from other parents, watch introductory videos, and check each tutor's qualifications and experience on their profile. You can also message them before booking to discuss your child's needs and make sure it's a good fit.
Are your tutors safe and background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is ID and background-checked before they can teach on our platform. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is important for learning. That's why we have our 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 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 way to share documents. It’s a simple, secure, and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of home.
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, so you can find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
How can tutoring help if my child is shy or lacks confidence?
One-to-one tutoring is a fantastic way to build confidence. In a supportive, private setting, your child can ask questions without feeling self-conscious. Our tutors are brilliant at creating a positive space where students feel comfortable to make mistakes and grow.
What results can I expect?
While every child's journey is unique, our goal is to help them feel more confident and capable in their studies. We're proud that 90% of our students improve by at least one grade, and we have helped over 200,000 students achieve their goals.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one lesson a week works well, but it's completely up to you. You can discuss the best frequency with your chosen tutor based on your child's goals and your family's schedule. There's no minimum commitment.
Can a tutor help my child with their specific English homework?
Yes, definitely. A tutor can provide brilliant support with homework, helping your child understand the task, work through tricky questions, and learn the skills to tackle future assignments on their own.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something like coding or a musical instrument?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the core curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or learn a new language, you can find an expert tutor to help them explore their interests.
