Watching your child navigate the pressures of school can be tough, especially when you know how much they want to do well.

Why Strong English Skills Open Doors for Your Child
A great grade in English isn't just a number on a certificate; it's a key that unlocks future opportunities. It's essential for getting into the A-Level courses they want and for crafting a compelling UCAS application that catches the eye of universities. Strong analytical and communication skills – the kind your child develops when they're breaking down a tricky Shakespeare quote or structuring a persuasive essay – are exactly what admissions tutors and future employers look for.

Personalised English Support to Help Your Child Stand Out
The right tutor does more than just teach a subject; they build a partnership with your child. We know how important it is to find the right fit, which is why we only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Our hand-picked tutors take the time to understand your child's unique learning style, pinpointing the exact areas where they need a bit of extra help, whether it's understanding poetry or mastering grammar. Every one-to-one lesson is built around your child's needs. If they find analysing 'Macbeth' tricky, their tutor can spend the whole session breaking down key quotes until it clicks. This tailored approach is why 90% of students improve by at least one grade, and for GCSEs, we can help boost results by up to two grades. It’s about turning 'I can't do this' into 'I understand'. Finding that extra support shouldn't add more stress to your family's schedule. With online tutoring, there's no need to travel. You can find the perfect English tutor from anywhere in the UK and schedule lessons at times that work for you. It's the flexible, effective support that has helped over 200,000 students, earning us a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 reviews.

Welcome to my profile. I'm an experienced online tutor and examiner, who has been teaching English Language & Literature and Religious Studies online since 2013. I am a fully qualified teacher with a Post-Graduate Certificate in Education.While I am a passionate tutor of each of these two subjects individually, more importantly I feel that my experience in each subject contributes something to the other.

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 is hoping to study at a top university like Manchester or Liverpool. Can a tutor help with this?
Yes, absolutely. A strong English grade is fundamental for many degree courses. Our tutors can help your child master the analytical and essay-writing skills needed for top A-Level grades and guide them in crafting a compelling personal statement for their UCAS application.
We're worried about the competition from schools in Shrewsbury and Chester. How can a tutor give my child an edge?
One-to-one tutoring provides focused attention that's often not possible in a busy classroom. A tutor can identify and strengthen your child's specific weak spots, building their confidence and deepening their subject knowledge to help them perform at their very best and stand out.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's simple to find a great match. You can filter tutors by subject and level, watch their introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and send them a message before booking. This helps you find someone with the right experience and a teaching style that will click with your child.
How much does online English tutoring cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, typically starting from around £20 per hour. There are no contracts or hidden fees. You simply pay as you go for the lessons you book, giving you complete flexibility.
How does online tutoring actually work?
Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It includes video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It's a secure and engaging way for your child to learn from the comfort of your home.
What if we don't get on with the first tutor we choose?
We want to make sure you find the perfect fit. 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.
Are the tutors qualified and have they been background checked?
Yes. Your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors are background checked. We also have a rigorous selection process and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the very best.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence in English?
A one-to-one setting provides a safe, supportive space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By breaking down difficult topics and celebrating small wins, our tutors help students build self-belief alongside their subject knowledge.
Can a tutor help with specific exam techniques for GCSEs?
Definitely. Many of our English tutors are experts in exam preparation. They can help your child understand mark schemes, structure their answers effectively, and manage their time in the exam hall to help them achieve the best possible grade.
How quickly can we expect to see results?
Every child learns at their own pace, but consistency is key. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence after just a few sessions. Our data shows that 90% of students who have regular lessons improve by at least one academic grade.
My child's schedule is already packed. How flexible is tutoring?
Very flexible. Because tutoring is online, you save on travel time. You can view each tutor's availability on their profile and book sessions that fit around your family's other commitments, whether that's after school, on weekends, or during school holidays.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we offer fantastic support for all academic subjects from Primary to A-Level, we also have tutors for a huge range of other skills. Your child could learn anything from coding and Python to playing the guitar or speaking a new language.
