How Strong English Skills Open Doors for Your Child

A strong grasp of English is one of the most important skills your child can have. It's not just about analysing quotes from 'Macbeth' or understanding grammar; it's about clear communication, critical thinking, and creativity. These are the skills that colleges, universities, and employers look for. A good grade in English GCSE or A-Level doesn't just look great on an application—it gives your child the confidence to express their ideas clearly throughout their life.

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?

You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check each tutor's experience. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific goals before booking. Finding someone your child connects with is the most important first step.

How much do online English tutors cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can filter tutors by price to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees, you simply pay for the lessons you book.

My child attends a school in Welwyn Garden City. Can a tutor tailor lessons to their specific curriculum?

Absolutely. Our tutors are experienced with a wide range of UK curricula, including GCSE and A-Level specifications from exam boards like AQA and Edexcel. You can discuss your child's specific schoolwork with a tutor to ensure lessons are perfectly aligned with what they're learning in class.

We're aiming for colleges like Oaklands College. Can a tutor help with personal statements?

Yes, many of our English tutors are brilliant at helping students with college and university applications. They can help your child structure their personal statement, refine their writing, and present themselves in the best possible light for places like Oaklands or other institutions.

What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

We understand that the right fit is crucial for learning. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. 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.

How do online lessons actually work?

Our online classroom has everything your child needs: a video chat, an interactive whiteboard for marking up texts or essays, and a space to share documents. It’s a simple, secure, and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of your home.

Are all the tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor is identity and background checked before they can teach on our platform. We are also very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.

How can a tutor help my child with their confidence in English?

Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child can ask questions they might be too shy to ask in class. A tutor can go at their pace, celebrate small wins, and break down difficult topics, which is a fantastic way to build their self-belief.

Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

While we have fantastic tutors for academic subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also have tutors for a huge range of other skills! Your child can learn anything from coding and guitar to a new language or even music production.

How long is a typical tutoring session?

Most sessions are one hour long, as this gives enough time to cover a topic in detail without your child losing focus. However, you can discuss different session lengths with your tutor to find what works best for your child's schedule and concentration.

Do I have to commit to a block of lessons?

No, there's no long-term commitment. You can book lessons week-by-week or book a block if you prefer – it's completely flexible and designed to fit around your family's needs. You are always in control of your schedule and payments.

How quickly can we get started?

You can get started very quickly! Many of our tutors can offer a lesson within a few days. Simply find a tutor you like, send them a message to introduce yourself, and you can arrange your first online session.
