English tutors in London

Showing 24 of 48 UK tutors who teach English in London. £20–£150/hr · median £55

English tutors based in London. Tutors elsewhere in the UK, including those teaching online, are on the main English tutors page.

'English' at primary level covers reading, writing, grammar, spelling and oracy across the National Curriculum, and is the foundation that splits into English Language and English Literature at GCSE. Tutoring helps most where two strands diverge: the technical mechanics (sentence structure, punctuation, SPaG) which exam mark schemes reward explicitly, and the comprehension-and-inference side which rewards how a student reads. For Year 6 SATs, the reading paper is the main bottleneck: it's a comprehension test under time pressure, and pace is half the battle. Look for tutors who teach both the analysis and the exam-paper craft.
