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.

Natalie G
Highly Recommended Maths Tutor!
Natalie is a fantastic tutor and we feel incredibly lucky to have found her. She tailors every lesson to my daughter’s individual needs, and as a visual learner, my daughter finds her sessions engaging, fun, and easy to understand. Natalie prepares each lesson beautifully and always comes with creative ways to explain even the trickiest concepts.
We’ve used tutors for all three of our children over the years, and only Natalie and one other tutor have provided such thoughtful, detailed feedback after every session — something we find extremely valuable.
It’s genuinely hard to find a maths tutor who makes lessons enjoyable, but Natalie does exactly that.
For the first time ever, my daughter actually looks forward to her maths sessions! Her confidence has grown, and so have her skills.
I highly recommend Natalie to any child who struggles with maths or simply wants to strengthen their abilities. Thank you, Natalie, for your dedication and wonderful teaching approach!

My daughter has been using Ricarda for A Level German tuition for the past couple of months. My daughter's test grades have already gone up and her teacher has commented on the progress she has made over the last couple of months. Ricarda is very personable, reliable and responsive. She listens, and quickly understood the areas my daughter needs to work on. She is a great tutor and I'm very happy that I chose her to support my daughter. I would highly recommend Ricarda!

asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is preparing for the Kent Test to get into Dane Court. Can I find a specialist tutor?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors have extensive experience helping children prepare specifically for the Kent Test and other 11+ exams. You can view their profiles, read reviews from other parents, and even filter your search to find tutors with a proven track record in grammar school entrance preparation.
Are your tutors familiar with the 11+ requirements for grammar schools in the Broadstairs area?
Yes, our tutors specialise in a wide range of curricula and exam boards, including the specific format of the Kent Test. During your free chat with a potential tutor, you can ask about their experience with the entrance requirements for schools like Chatham & Clarendon to ensure they are the perfect fit.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
It's all about finding the right personality match. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message tutors for free to discuss your child's needs. Finding someone your child connects with is the key to building their confidence.
How does online tutoring work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features a live video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It’s a secure and engaging way for your child to learn from home, with all the benefits of one-to-one attention.
How do you ensure tutors are safe to work with my child?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors is background-checked with an enhanced DBS check. We also interview every tutor and only accept 1 in every 8 who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. If you don't get on with your first tutor, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How much does tutoring cost in Broadstairs?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level. Tutors set their own rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles, so you can find an experienced tutor that fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or commitments.
Can tutoring really help with my child's confidence?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits we see. When a child starts to understand a topic they've struggled with, their self-esteem grows. Our tutors are experts at creating a positive, encouraging environment where your child feels safe to ask questions and make mistakes, which is crucial for learning.
How soon will we see results?
Every child learns at their own pace, but the one-to-one focus means progress can be seen quickly. 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. The key is consistent support that targets the areas where your child needs it most.
Is it just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we have experts for core subjects like Maths and English, your child could also learn to play the guitar, get help with their university application, or even learn a new language like Spanish. It’s about changing lives through learning, whatever that may be.
How flexible are the lesson schedules?
Very flexible. You can arrange lesson times directly with your tutor to find a slot that fits around your family's life, whether it's after school, on weekends, or during the holidays. You are in complete control of the schedule.
What if my child has GCSEs or A-Levels coming up?
We have thousands of specialist tutors for GCSE and A-Level subjects. They can help your child get to grips with tricky topics, master exam technique and build their confidence. Students who use Tutorful for their GCSEs can improve their results by up to 2 grades.
