Holly has been a fantastic tutor for my daughter, Anissa. She is patient, encouraging and explains things in a clear and supportive way.
Since starting lessons with Holly, Anissa’s confidence has grown noticeably, and she feels much more comfortable and positive in her learning. She really enjoys the sessions and speaks very warmly about Holly — she genuinely loves learning with her.

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
My child hopes to study at Callywith or Truro College. Can a tutor help with this?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students secure the GCSE grades they need for competitive sixth forms and colleges. They can focus on the specific areas of the English curriculum your child needs to strengthen, building their confidence for the exams that will help them take that next step.
We're worried about securing a good university place at somewhere like Exeter or Falmouth. How can a tutor help?
A strong university application starts with great GCSE results. For competitive universities, having solid grades in core subjects like English is crucial. A tutor can help your child build a deep understanding of the subject early on, which not only helps them achieve better grades but also develops the independent study skills they'll need for A-Levels and university life.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is essential 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 I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and send messages to tutors before you book. We recommend finding someone your child will relate to. Think about their specific needs – do they need help with exam technique for English Language, or analysing texts for English Literature? You can filter tutors by their experience to find the perfect match.
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 an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or complicated contracts.
How do the online lessons work?
All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It’s simple to use and means your child can learn effectively and safely from the comfort of your home.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed a background check. We also interview every applicant and only accept 1 in 8, so you can be confident your child is learning from the very best.
How can a tutor help my child if they've lost their confidence in English?
This is one of the most important things a tutor can do. By providing patient, one-to-one attention in a supportive space, they can help your child work through difficulties without the pressure of a classroom. Celebrating small wins and building skills step-by-step can make a huge difference to their self-belief.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one session a week is a great starting point. This allows for steady progress and gives your child time to practise what they've learned. You can discuss the best frequency directly with your chosen tutor, who will be happy to create a plan that works for you.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
Not at all! While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects, we also offer support in a wide range of skills. So if your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or even learn a new language, we have expert tutors who can help them explore their passions.
What results can I realistically expect?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our goal is always to help them make real, measurable progress. We're proud that 90% of our students improve by at least one grade, and our 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 reviews shows how much parents value the support we provide.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
The standard lesson length is one hour. This gives enough time to dive into a topic properly without your child feeling overwhelmed. You can always arrange a different lesson length if you discuss it with your tutor beforehand.
