One-to-One Support That Understands Your Child's Goals
The right tutor does more than just teach a subject; they build a real connection with your child. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the best. They take the time to understand your child's unique learning style, their strengths, and the areas where they feel a bit stuck. This personal approach helps turn 'I can't do this' into 'I can give it a go'. Every lesson is designed around your child. There's no one-size-fits-all plan here. If your child needs to focus on 11+ practice papers, that's what the session will be about. If they're finding a specific GCSE topic tricky, their tutor will find new ways to explain it until it clicks. It's this tailored support that makes all the difference, with 90% of our students improving by at least one grade. Finding that support is simple and fits around your family's life. You can browse background-checked tutors, read reviews from other parents, and schedule online sessions at times that work for you. There's no travelling across Grays after a long school day – just effective, stress-free learning from the comfort of your own home.

Chris is a really patient and knowledgeable A-Level Chemistry tutor. Having been through quitea few chemistry tutors on tutorful before, I settled with Chris as Ifound his style of teaching really worked with me compared to other tutors. Chris' style for me is mainly to focus on understanding the key concepts to ensure I can apply these ideas to the exam effectively, and it is definetely working and I am gaining a lot of confidence very quickly. Would highly recommend.

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!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
We're preparing for the 11+ for CSSE grammar schools like Westcliff High. Can we find a specialist tutor?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in 11+ preparation and have specific experience with the CSSE exam format. You can check their profiles for details on their expertise and even message them beforehand to discuss your child's specific needs for grammar school entrance.
I'm worried about my child getting top GCSE grades for a competitive sixth form. Can a tutor help?
This is a very common reason parents come to us. A tutor can provide focused support to help your child secure the grades they need. They can work on exam technique, fill in any knowledge gaps, and build confidence in tougher subjects. Our data shows we can help improve a child's GCSE results by up to 2 grades.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
Finding the right fit is key. You can watch introductory videos, read detailed profiles, and see reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's goals. Finding someone your child connects with can make all the difference to their learning.
How much does online tutoring cost in Grays?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level. Tutors set their own rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. This transparency allows you to find an experienced, high-quality tutor who fits your family's budget.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors undergoes a thorough background check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How does online tutoring work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing, so your child and their tutor can work together just as they would in person. All you need is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right student-tutor relationship is essential 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.
How can a tutor help my child's confidence?
Often, a lack of confidence is what holds a child back. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions without fear of getting it wrong. Tutors celebrate small wins and break down big challenges, which helps build self-belief that extends beyond a single subject.
Is this just for school subjects like Maths and English?
Not at all! While we have thousands of tutors for academic subjects from primary to degree level, you can also find tutors for hobbies and personal skills. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or learn a new language, we have tutors who can help.
How long are the sessions and how often should they be?
Sessions are typically one hour long. Most families find that one session per week is a great starting point, but you can arrange a frequency that works best for your child and your schedule. You can discuss this directly with your chosen tutor.
Can a tutor help with university applications to places like the University of Essex?
Yes. We have many tutors who are experienced in helping with A-Levels, personal statements, and university entrance advice. They can provide valuable guidance to help your child put together a strong application for universities like Essex or those in London.
How do I know if my child is making progress?
Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's progress. You can also see their confidence grow as they start to tackle topics they once found difficult. Many parents tell us they notice a positive change in their child's attitude towards learning.
