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.

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.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is hoping to apply to Durham University. Can a tutor help with the A-Level skills they'll need?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in preparing students for the demands of A-Level and university entrance. They can help your child develop the sophisticated analytical and essay-writing skills needed to achieve top grades and make their application stand out.
We're aiming for a competitive sixth form like Shotton Hall or East Durham College. Can a tutor ease the jump from GCSE English?
Definitely. The transition from GCSE to A-Level can be challenging. A tutor can work with your child to bridge that gap, consolidating their GCSE knowledge and introducing the more advanced critical thinking skills required for their A-Level studies, building their confidence from day one.
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. Many tutors offer a free 15-minute chat to discuss your child's needs before you book. It's all about finding someone your child clicks with.
How much does online English tutoring cost in Wingate?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study, so you can find an expert tutor that fits your family's budget.
What happens if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. 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 your tutors properly checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors are background-checked and we interview every single one. We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How can tutoring help my child feel more confident in English?
One-to-one lessons create a safe space for your child to ask questions without fear of judgement. When a tutor tailors lessons to their specific needs, concepts start to click into place, and that success is a huge confidence booster.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our online classroom, which has features like a shared whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam and a stable internet connection.
How long does it take to see an improvement in my child's grades?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our focused, one-to-one approach is designed for progress. In fact, 90% of students who use Tutorful improve by at least one grade.
Do you offer tutoring for skills other than school subjects?
Yes, we do. While we have experts across the curriculum, we also have tutors who can help your child learn new skills like coding, playing the guitar, or even learning a new language for fun.
Can a tutor help with specific parts of the English curriculum, like poetry analysis?
Absolutely. That's one of the main benefits of one-to-one tutoring. If your child finds poetry particularly tricky, their tutor can dedicate entire lessons to analysing poems, understanding literary devices, and structuring their answers for exams.
What if we need to reschedule a lesson?
Life can be busy, we get it. You can easily reschedule a lesson by giving your tutor at least 24 hours' notice. Just message them directly through the platform to arrange a new time that works for you both.
