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
My child wants to go to Sandwell College. Can a tutor help them get the GCSE English grade they need?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experts in the GCSE curriculum and focus specifically on helping students secure that all-important Grade 5 or higher. They can work with your child on exam technique, essay writing, and understanding the core texts to build their confidence ahead of their exams.
We're hoping for a place at a university like Birmingham City or Aston. How can English tutoring help?
Strong English skills are vital for getting into university. A tutor can help your child excel in their A-Level English, which is often a key requirement. They can also provide invaluable support with writing a compelling personal statement for their UCAS application, helping them stand out from other candidates.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can read tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs before booking. This helps you find someone with the right experience and teaching style for your family.
What if we don't click with the first tutor?
We know that the right fit is important. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your first tutor for any reason, 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?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. This transparency allows you to find an experienced tutor who fits your budget.
Are your tutors safe and background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed a background check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How do online lessons work?
Our lessons take place in a secure, online classroom with video chat, a shared whiteboard, and document sharing. It's an interactive and engaging way for your child to learn from the comfort of your own home, with no travel needed.
Can a tutor help my child with their confidence?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor creates a supportive, encouraging environment where your child feels comfortable asking questions and making mistakes. This often leads to a huge boost in their confidence, both in and out of the classroom.
How quickly will we see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our tailored approach means you can see progress quickly. Because lessons are focused entirely on your child's needs, they can make significant strides in just a few sessions. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.
Can we get help with a specific exam board, like AQA or Edexcel?
Of course. Many tutors specialise in specific exam boards and their curriculums. You can see their areas of expertise on their profiles or simply message them to ask if they have experience with your child's exam board.
What happens in a typical English tutoring session?
A session is usually tailored to your child's current needs. It might involve going over a tricky piece of homework, practising exam-style questions, analysing a poem or play, or working on essay structure. The tutor will focus on whatever will help your child make the most progress.
Is this just for school 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 wide range of other skills. You can find expert tutors for everything from learning to play the guitar or piano to coding in Python.
