Harry L
Our son has dyslexia and had taken his GCSE English several times without passing. He was demoralized with the whole process. We had 6 weeks before the next attempt and we were lucky enough to find Harry. He said that in his first lesson with him he had learnt more about exam technique than he had in all of his GCSE lessons. Today he got a grade 5 which seemed impossible before Harry's tutor sessions. Thankyou very much Harry, our family is extremely grateful for your particular teaching skills and supporting our son to success.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can view each tutor's profile, watch their introduction video, and read reviews from other parents. We recommend shortlisting a few and sending them a message to discuss your child's needs before booking. It's all about finding a personality and teaching style that clicks with your child.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our English tutors set their own hourly rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on experience and the level of study, so you can find an excellent, trusted tutor who fits your family's budget.
My child is hoping to attend Peter Symonds College. Can a tutor help with their application?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors have experience helping students with college applications, including crafting personal statements and preparing for any entrance assessments. You can filter for tutors with this specific experience or message them directly to ask how they can help.
How can tutoring help my child build confidence in English?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Our tutors celebrate small wins and break down difficult topics, like Shakespearean language, into manageable steps, which builds momentum and self-belief.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every tutor and all tutors must have a valid DBS check before they can teach on our platform. We're very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply.
We live in Winchester, but does my child's tutor have to be local?
Not at all! That's one of the biggest benefits of online tutoring. You're not limited to tutors who live nearby. You can connect with the best English specialist for your child's specific needs, no matter where they are in the UK.
Is tutoring only for students who are struggling?
Not at all. While tutoring is fantastic for helping students catch up, it's also great for those aiming high. Many students use our tutors to push for the top grades at GCSE or A-Level, or to prepare for competitive university courses.
What is the 'First Lesson Guarantee'?
We want you to be completely happy with your choice of tutor. If for any reason the first lesson isn't a good fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
What happens in a typical online lesson?
Lessons take place in our interactive online classroom. Tutors can use a digital whiteboard, share resources like texts and past papers, and work through problems together with your child. Each session is tailored to your child's specific learning goals.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
It's for both! Alongside academic subjects, we have brilliant tutors who can teach life skills and hobbies, including coding, learning a musical instrument like the guitar, or even public speaking. It's a great way for your child to explore new interests.
Do you offer tutoring for subjects other than English?
Yes, we have expert tutors across more than 300 subjects, from Maths and Science to modern languages and humanities. You can find support for every stage, from Primary and 11+ right through to GCSE, A-Level, and degree level.
How do I manage bookings and payments?
Everything is handled securely through your Tutorful account. You can schedule lessons, communicate with your tutor, and make payments easily and safely on the platform. It's designed to be simple and hassle-free for you.
