Ben H
Experienced and engaging tutor of English and music.
I firmly believe that teaching is a two-way process. Whether I'm in a classroom or online, I will create a dialogue so the pupils/tutees feel involved in the process and are able to question, inquire and verbalise what we are learning. Very few people learn by being told something once, so my tutoring sessions are generally about discovery, mastery and learning side by side to answer the big questions along with my years of expertise providing the content.I have worked in education for 12 years in all sorts of settings, with a huge range of pupils. My track record is impressive and I firmly believe...

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!

Ricarda M
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!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is preparing for the Kent Test. Can I find a tutor with experience in this?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in 11+ and entrance exam preparation, including the specific requirements of the Kent Test. You can view their profiles to see their experience and message them directly to discuss your child's needs before booking.
We're hoping for a grammar school place in Canterbury or Faversham. Can a tutor help?
Definitely. Our tutors can help your child build the skills and confidence needed for grammar school entrance exams. They can create a tailored plan focusing on the key areas, from verbal and non-verbal reasoning to Maths and English, to give your child the best possible preparation.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
It's all about finding the right fit. You can read detailed profiles, watch introduction videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to chat about your child’s goals before you book your first session to ensure you find the perfect match.
How much do online tutors in Herne Bay cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, which typically start from around £20 per hour. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the subject level. You can easily filter by price to find a brilliant tutor who fits your budget.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single UK-based tutor on our platform has passed an enhanced DBS check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We want to make sure your child feels comfortable and happy with their tutor. If it's not the right fit for any reason, our First Lesson Guarantee has you covered. Just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How does online tutoring work?
It's simple and effective. All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
How can tutoring help my child's confidence?
One-to-one attention in a supportive space makes a huge difference. A tutor can go at your child's pace, celebrate their progress, and help them overcome specific hurdles without the pressure of a classroom. This personalised support often leads to a big boost in self-belief.
Is tutoring just for exams, or can my child learn a hobby like guitar or coding?
It's for both! While we have thousands of tutors for academic subjects like Maths, English and Science, we also have experts who can teach practical skills and hobbies, including music, coding languages like Python, art, and much more.
How quickly will we see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our experience shows that consistent, tailored support makes a real impact. Many parents tell us they see a positive change in their child's confidence and understanding within just a few sessions. In fact, 90% of students improve by at least one grade.
My child is thinking about the University of Kent. Can a tutor help with their A-Levels?
Yes. We have many specialist A-Level tutors who can provide in-depth subject knowledge to help your child secure the grades they need for university applications, including for competitive courses at the University of Kent.
Can we schedule lessons to fit around school and other clubs?
Of course. The flexibility of online tutoring is a huge benefit for busy families. You can view each tutor's availability on their profile and arrange sessions for evenings, weekends, or holidays – whatever works best for you.
