English isn't just another subject; it's the foundation for so much of your child's future success. It's the key that unlocks further education, helping them secure a place on their chosen A-Level course. The skills they develop, from analysing a quote in 'An Inspector Calls' to crafting a compelling argument, are exactly what universities like Sheffield and Nottingham Trent look for. A strong pass in English gives them the confidence and the qualification to take that next step.

Personalised English Tutoring to Build Your Child's Confidence
The right tutor does more than just teach the curriculum; they build a partnership with your child. We know how important it is to find someone you trust, which is why we carefully select the best tutors from across the UK, with only 1 in 8 applicants making the cut. Every tutor is background-checked, so you can feel confident your child is in safe hands with an expert who understands how to help them succeed. Imagine lessons built entirely around your child's needs. If they find structuring essays difficult, their tutor can focus on that. If they need to get to grips with poetic techniques, the whole session can be about building that skill. This tailored approach is why 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. For GCSEs, we can even help students improve by up to two grades, making a real difference to their final results. Finding the perfect support for your family is simple. You can browse tutors, read reviews from other parents, and schedule lessons at times that fit around your life. With no travel needed, your child can learn from the comfort of home, getting the focused support they need to walk into their exams feeling prepared and confident.

Experienced English tutor
Hi, I’m John, I’m 23 and I’m currently studying law at Demontfort University. I have been tutoring now for almost two years mainly in maths from KS1 up to GCSE and have developed the knowledge and skills to be able to tailor my lessons to best suit the student as no one style will work best for everyone. For example, some students may benefit from shorter lessons, some may benefit from taking the lessons at a much slower pace, some may prefer to just dive straight into questions and many other factors that we will be able to identify together and use to customise the lesson to best suit the stude...

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is at Outwood Academy Valley and is worried about their English GCSE. Can a tutor help?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in the GCSE curriculum and have helped thousands of students secure the grades they need. They can work with your child on specific areas of the English Language or Literature papers, helping them build confidence and master the skills needed for a Grade 5 or higher.
We're hoping for A-Levels at North Notts College. Can a tutor ensure my child gets the English grade they need?
A tutor can provide targeted support to help your child meet the entry requirements for their desired courses. By focusing on their specific weaknesses and building on their strengths, a tutor can make a significant difference in helping them achieve the necessary GCSE English grade to progress to A-Levels.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles to see their experience, qualifications, and read reviews from other parents. We recommend watching their intro videos to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. You can also message tutors before booking to ask any specific questions you might have.
What if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. 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.
How much do online English tutors in Worksop cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, which are displayed clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study, so you can find an experienced, high-quality tutor that fits your budget.
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. Your child just needs a computer or tablet with a microphone, a camera, and a stable internet connection.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence in English?
One-to-one lessons create a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. A tutor can break down difficult topics, celebrate small wins, and adapt their teaching style to your child's personality, which is a fantastic way to boost their self-esteem.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor is interviewed and has their background checked before they can join Tutorful. We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
Is tutoring just for academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have thousands of tutors for academic subjects like English, Maths and Science, we also have experts who can teach practical and creative skills. Your child could learn anything from coding and guitar to a new language.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
Most tutoring lessons are one hour long. This gives enough time to cover a topic in detail without your child losing focus. However, you can arrange different session lengths with your tutor to suit your child's needs.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most students have one lesson per week, as this provides consistency and allows them to build momentum. You can discuss what's best for your child and your family's schedule directly with your chosen tutor.
What happens in the first lesson?
The first lesson is usually about getting to know your child. The tutor will want to understand their goals, find out what they enjoy about the subject, and identify any areas they find tricky. It's a great way to build a positive relationship from the very start.
