Holly E
Holly has been tutoring my son in English GCSE for the last half term. He has found the lessons very useful, working in a logical order through the different aspects of the curriculum. Holly is friendly, approachable and encouraging.
My Son has just had his mock exam results and has moved from just hitting an exam grade boundary to being 2 points off the next grade up. We are very pleased at his progress in a short space of time.

Mamun A
My son is really improving since starting lessons with Mamun. From the start of the lesson getting almost all questions wrong to by the end completely understanding it all. Tested him a few days later and he got almost every question right without any help at all he remembered all the punctuation in all questions, shocked how much he's improved from just one lesson on it! Mamun's teaching is brilliant and it really seems to stick in my sons head. Also my son is very fussy with his ASD/ADHD and is often open about his feelings towards people, especially new people most often than not he will say he doesn't like this person because of this or that, but he said he likes his tutor and wants to do more lessons which is brilliant. Mamun is always on time, very patient and explains thoroughly, he gives brilliant feedback afterwards too. Highly recommend this tutor and I'm glad I chose him rather than someone else.

Nadiah K
Nadiah is an AMAZING English tutor.
Nadiah is very reliable, organised and efficient, prompting and guiding my son to keep on track outside of sessions aswell. I have had feedback from school after just a few months that the quality of my sons writing has improved significantly and teachers have asked if he has been doing anything different.
My son is also developing more of an interest in the subject which has been really nice to see.

Jeremy B
After the first lesson my son announced “That was amazing Mum, you need to watch the video, he was SUCH a good teacher”. This couldn’t have been more different to previous feedback on our attempts to find an English tutor. I’m delighted that Jeremy is structured in his lessons, but also his tone is very friendly and fun! My 12 year old son has Tourettes and ADHD, and has been quite unwell. It’s also done wonders for my mental health knowing Jeremy is guiding my son through English, after seeing the videos I do not have this skill! 100% recommend him!

Michelle P
Wonderful English Tutor!
Michelle has been an incredible English tutor for our daughter Sarah. She always starts each session with a fun “mind boggle,” which Sarah absolutely loves — it sets such a positive and energising tone for the lesson. From the moment she enters the class, Michelle makes Sarah smile.
Her lessons are interesting, engaging, and thoughtfully planned. Michelle brings a fantastic mix of humour, enthusiasm, and kindness to every session, and it truly shows in Sarah’s enjoyment and progress. She has a wonderful teaching style that keeps Sarah motivated and excited to learn.
We are so grateful for Michelle’s support and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an English tutor who can make learning both effective and fun.
Thank you Michelle.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child attends Wayland Academy and wants to apply to Dereham Sixth Form College. Can a tutor help with this?
Absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in helping students bridge the gap between GCSEs and A-Levels. They can focus on strengthening the specific skills and knowledge needed to meet the entry requirements for competitive sixth forms and help your child feel confident and prepared for the transition.
We're hoping our child might go to the University of East Anglia (UEA). Can an English tutor support this long-term goal?
Yes, definitely. A strong English GCSE is a key building block for a successful university application. A tutor can help your child develop the analytical and writing skills that are essential for A-Levels and will form the foundation of a compelling personal statement for universities like UEA.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message them to ask questions before you book. It's a great way to find someone with the right experience and a personality that will click with your child.
How can I be sure the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and interviewed by our team. We only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can rest assured your child is learning from a trusted and knowledgeable expert.
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 a 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 much does online English tutoring cost?
Our tutors set their own prices, which typically range from £25 to £45 per hour, depending on their experience. You can see each tutor's rate clearly on their profile, so you can find an expert who fits your budget.
How do online lessons work?
Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and tools for sharing documents. All your child needs is a computer or tablet with a stable internet connection, a webcam, and a microphone.
Can tutoring help if my child has lost their confidence in English?
Yes. One-to-one tutoring is fantastic for building confidence. In a supportive, patient environment, your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed, work at their own pace, and start to see that they are capable of succeeding.
How long does it take to see an improvement in my child's grades?
Every child learns at a different pace, but our tailored approach gets results. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. Consistent lessons focused on your child's specific needs are the key to making real progress.
What happens in a typical English tutoring session?
A session is usually focused on a specific goal. It might start with reviewing homework from school, then move on to tackling a tricky area, like analysing poetry or planning an essay. The tutor will adapt the lesson to your child's needs, ensuring they feel supported and understand the topic by the end.
How many lessons will my child need?
This really depends on your child's individual goals. Some students have a few sessions to prepare for an exam, while others have regular weekly lessons throughout the school year. You can discuss what's best for your child directly with your chosen tutor.
Do you only offer tutoring for school subjects?
Not at all! While we cover all academic subjects from Primary to A-Level, we also have brilliant tutors who can teach skills like coding, learning a musical instrument like the guitar, or even a new language just for fun.
