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.

Flora is the best teacher that has ever taught my daughters. They even said they wish their English teacher at school were like Flora — which I think says everything. 😊 She is so patient, encouraging, and creates a positive atmosphere. It makes a real difference, and we truly appreciate her work.

asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is preparing for the 11+ for schools like Graveney or grammars in Sutton. Can I find a specialist tutor?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our English tutors have specific experience helping children prepare for the 11+ and entrance exams for selective schools. You can view their profiles, read parent reviews, and message them directly to discuss your child's specific needs and the schools you're aiming for.
We're aiming for a top London university. Can a tutor help with A-Level English?
Definitely. We have a fantastic selection of tutors who are experts in A-Level English Literature and Language. They can provide in-depth support with complex texts, essay writing, and exam technique to help your child secure the top grades they need for their university application.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
The best way is to look at their profiles, where you can see their experience, qualifications, and reviews from other parents. You can also send a message to a few tutors to chat about your child's goals before you book. It's all about finding someone your child will connect with.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can easily filter tutors by price to find someone who fits your budget. All costs are clearly shown on their profiles, so there are no hidden surprises.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed a background check before they can start teaching. We also manually vet every tutor application, accepting only 1 in 8 who apply, to ensure the highest quality.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. If for any reason you don't get on with your first tutor, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor. It's our First Lesson Guarantee.
How do the online lessons work?
Our lessons take place in a purpose-built online classroom. It has video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing tools, making it easy for your child and their tutor to work together. All your child needs is a computer or tablet and a stable internet connection.
How can tutoring help my child build confidence?
One-to-one tutoring creates a safe space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. When a tutor tailors lessons to their pace and celebrates their progress, it can make a huge difference to their self-belief, both in the subject and in themselves.
Can a tutor help with specific GCSE texts, like Shakespeare or poetry?
Yes. Our tutors can provide focused support on the specific books, plays, and poems your child is studying for their GCSEs. They can help them understand difficult themes, analyse language, and structure their exam answers effectively.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also offer a huge range of other skills. Your child could learn anything from coding and guitar to a new language or even public speaking.
How long does a typical lesson last?
The standard lesson length is one hour, which most students find is the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can discuss different lesson lengths with your tutor to find what works best for your child.
What if we need to cancel or reschedule a lesson?
Life happens, and we get that. Our platform makes it easy to manage your schedule. You can cancel or reschedule a lesson with your tutor, but please be sure to give them at least 12 hours' notice to avoid being charged for the session.
