Chloe L
Friendly English tutor
I like to base all my lessons around solid scaffolding. This means we would start with what prior knowledge we have, then move onto a solid introduction, then do guided questions and then finally completing work independently. I’m currently coming to the end of my teaching degree. I have worked in the schools however over the last six years I have been a teaching assistant for two of those years, then moved on to covering classes and then moving onto teaching in an unqualified position. I have taught between reception year up to year six. I have a very strong understanding of the national curriculum f...

Beth D
Creative and targeted English tutor
Hello! I have two years of private tutoring experience and I’m a friendly, enthusiastic tutor wanting to help students achieve the best grades possible. I use a personalised approach in my teaching methods as no two students are the same and if I find that something isn’t working for any individual I will always change my approach to find an understanding, whether that be incorporating drawings and visual aids or providing every day examples. I think tutoring can be fun and enjoyable with the right person for you behind the screen! I like to make my lessons interactive rather than a lecture sty...

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.

Brilliant English tutors who you’ll really click with.
Our experienced tutors take the time to understand where each student needs to focus and their preferred way of learning. They make a measurable difference – 90% of all students improve by at least one grade.
My child wants to apply to Farnborough Sixth Form College. Can a tutor help with that?
Absolutely. Many of our English tutors are experienced in helping students achieve the high GCSE grades needed for entry into competitive sixth forms like Farnborough. They can focus on strengthening essay writing, exam technique, and textual analysis to help your child's application stand out.
We live in Yateley, are the tutors familiar with the local school curriculum?
While our tutors are based across the UK, they are all experts in the national curriculum for England, including the specific exam boards (like AQA and Edexcel) used by schools in and around Yateley. They can tailor lessons to match exactly what your child is studying in the classroom.
How do I choose the best English tutor for my child?
It's all about finding the right fit. You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check ratings from other parents – we have over 4,100+ reviews giving us a 4.6-star average. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific goals before booking.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We understand that the right student-tutor relationship is key. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident in English?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might be shy about in class. By breaking down tricky topics and celebrating small wins, a tutor can help them see their own progress and start to believe in their abilities.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform must pass an enhanced DBS check and provide professional references. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications, but you can easily filter by price to find someone who fits your budget. Tutors set their own rates, and you can see the cost clearly on their profile with no hidden fees.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing, so your child can work through texts and essays with their tutor in real-time, just as they would in person.
Can a tutor help with specific texts, like Shakespeare or poetry anthologies?
Yes, definitely. You can find tutors who are specialists in particular areas of the English curriculum. Whether your child is struggling with Shakespearean language in 'Romeo and Juliet' or analysing poems from the AQA anthology, you can find an expert to guide them.
How long does it take to see an improvement in my child's grades?
Every child learns at a different pace, but consistent weekly lessons can make a significant impact. Our data shows that 90% of our students improve by at least one grade, and with focused support, it's possible to see progress in your child's confidence and understanding within just a few weeks.
What happens in a typical English tutoring session?
A session is usually tailored to your child's immediate needs. It might start with a quick review of what they covered in school that week, followed by focused work on a specific area, such as planning an essay, analysing a difficult quote, or practising exam-style questions. It's all about what will help them most.
Is tutoring only for core subjects like English, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have fantastic tutors for academic subjects from the 11+ to degree level, we also believe in learning for life. You can find tutors for a huge range of skills and hobbies, from learning to play the guitar or speak Spanish, to coding in Python.
