Definitely a tutor I would recommend for English. Friendly, helpful and assuring for such vast knowledge in English you can identify her in having through the lessons you have with her. She structures lessons well to allow you to engage and be educated at a steady pace where your weaknesses are identified simultaneously, and further improving on it, fortifying your foundation on the subject whilst also gaining more exposure and experience to answering past paper questions.

My child is preparing for the Kent Test to get into Dover Grammar School. Can I find a specialist tutor?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in 11+ preparation and have specific experience with the Kent Test. You can check their profiles for details and message them to discuss your child's specific needs for getting into schools like Dover Grammar School for Boys or Dover Grammar School for Girls.
We're thinking about the University of Kent. Can a tutor help with A-Levels to meet their entry requirements?
Yes. Our A-Level tutors are experts in their subjects and can help your child deepen their understanding, improve their exam technique, and build the confidence they need to secure the grades required for competitive university courses, including those at the University of Kent.
How do I choose the right online tutor for my child?
You can start by filtering tutors by subject and level. Read their profiles to learn about their experience and teaching style, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality. We recommend messaging a few tutors to find the best fit for your child.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for success. 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.
