Michael B
Friendly, enthusiastic English Tutor
I absolutely love what I do, and channel that enthusiasm within each of my lessons. I believe a child can very easily see if a teacher is passionate about what they are teaching, which is why I believe only those who absolutely love their profession should teach. I want to provide the most engaging and challenging lesson for myself, because I hold very high standards for my quality of work, but more importantly, for the child. I want a child to leave each session safe in the knowledge that they have learnt something new that day.I like to approach each session differently, learning what interests...

Ben D
Ben is an amazing tutor, he’s really got my step son who has Asperger’s to engage, lessons are planned and structured, post lesson feedback given which really helps as I can send it over to his mom after his lesson and know what he needs to revise. Definitely a worthwhile investment in my step sons future!

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.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child wants to apply to a college in Hull like Wyke or Wilberforce. Can a tutor help?
Yes, absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in helping students achieve the specific GCSE grades needed for college applications. They can focus on the exam board your child's school uses and build a plan to help them secure the pass they need for their chosen A-Level courses.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message them to ask questions before booking. We recommend finding someone your child will connect with, who has experience in the specific area they need help with, like GCSE exam preparation.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is interviewed by our team and must pass a background check before they can teach on our platform. We're very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the best.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We want to find the perfect match for your child. With 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.
We live in Withernsea. Does my child's tutor need to be local?
Not at all. Because all our lessons are online, your child can connect with the very best English specialists from anywhere in the UK. This gives you a much wider choice of experts than you would find locally, ensuring you can find the perfect fit for your child's needs.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications, but typically range from £20 to £45 per hour. Tutors set their own rates, and you can easily filter by price to find someone who fits your budget.
How can tutoring help my child build confidence?
One-to-one lessons provide a safe space for your child to ask questions without feeling embarrassed. A tutor can break down difficult topics, celebrate small wins, and show them they are capable of succeeding, which can make a huge difference to their self-esteem.
How do the online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It’s easy to use and designed to make lessons engaging and effective. All you need is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
How long will it take to see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our goal is to make progress from the very first session. Many parents notice a boost in their child's confidence quickly. For academic results, 90% of students who use Tutorful improve by at least one grade.
Can a tutor help with a specific text, like Shakespeare?
Definitely. Our English tutors can provide focused support on any area of the curriculum, whether it's understanding the language in 'Romeo and Juliet', analysing poetry, or mastering grammar for the English Language paper.
Do you offer tutoring for skills beyond school subjects?
Absolutely. Alongside core subjects like English and Maths, you can find brilliant tutors for everything from learning the guitar and new languages to coding in Python. It's a great way for your child to explore new hobbies and skills.
What happens in the first lesson?
The first session is usually a chance for the tutor to get to know your child, understand their strengths and weaknesses, and discuss their goals. It's a relaxed way to build a rapport and create a plan for future lessons.
