Tutors who join go through an ID check. Tell us the class, board and your area: we share two or three matched tutors, each with their fee, and the first class is a free demo, at home or online.
Book a free demo classAcross NXTutors, most home-tuition sessions fall between ₹800 and ₹2,500 an hour; Classes 11–12, IB/IGCSE and JEE/NEET sit toward the upper end; specialists for IB HL or JEE Advanced can charge more. Tutors set their own fee, and you see each tutor's fee before the demo class.
Monthly example: 3 one-hour classes a week ≈ ₹9,600–₹32,500 a month (12–13 classes at ₹800–₹2,500 an hour). An example, not a quote: your tutor's own fee decides the real figure.

"Weak in English" on a Jalandhar report card can mean very different things. One child reads quickly but loses marks on the layout of a letter. Another knows every chapter and writes three thin lines of literature. A third writes neatly and goes silent when asked to speak. In homes where Punjabi or Hindi is the everyday language, English lives mostly in the classroom, and the gap shows up differently in each child. Tell NXTutors which picture fits your child, the board (PSEB, CBSE, ICSE, ISC or an international course) and your colony. We send two or three English tutors with their fees, and the first class is a free demo.
Put the skill in your message before anything else. Two children in the same class can need quite different tutors.
| Skill | What you notice | What the tutor does |
|---|---|---|
| Reading | Unseen passages take too long, or answers wander away from the text | A timed passage most weeks, each answer checked against the lines it came from |
| Writing formats | Letters, notices and paragraphs lose marks on layout or length | Formats taught once and then left alone; content and linking words practised weekly |
| Grammar in use | Exercises come back correct, but free writing is riddled with slips | Mistakes collected from the child's own essays and fixed one type at a time |
| Speaking | Good on paper, silent when asked a question aloud | Short spoken summaries that grow into talks; boards now mark listening and speaking too |
| Block | Marks | What it contains | Weekly habit |
|---|---|---|---|
| Reading | 20 | A discursive passage and a case-based factual passage that includes a chart or data | One fresh passage each week, timed |
| Writing and grammar | 20 | Grammar 10; a formal letter 5; an analytical paragraph on a chart, map or graph 5 | One letter or paragraph written and marked |
| Literature | 40 | From First Flight and Footprints without Feet | Two answers outlined in points, within the word limit, referring to the text |
The school adds 20 more, five of them for listening and speaking. Notice that literature is worth as much as the other two blocks put together. A child who can tell a story well in Punjabi or Hindi but writes a brief English answer is losing easy marks, so two literature answers a week, marked for relevance and length, often do more good than another worksheet.
The Punjab School Education Board prescribes its own curriculum and textbooks, and its website carries the syllabus, the structure of the question paper and model test papers. We keep our description of its English papers general. In practice, look for three things: lessons from the board's own book, practice with the board's released material, and formats and dates checked on pseb.ac.in, because they can change. Explaining in Punjabi or Hindi helps at the start, with English taking over as confidence grows. Our Punjab board tutors in Jalandhar page covers the other subjects.
Because it is two subjects. CISCE sets English Language and Literature in English as separate papers, each of 80 with 20 internal marks. On the language side, a student writes a composition of around 300 to 350 words, a letter, and a notice paired with an e-mail, then tackles an unseen passage with a summary and a grammar section; listening and speaking are worth 10 internal marks apiece. Literature means the prescribed drama, prose and poetry. What a tutor adds is long writing under time, marked strictly. The ICSE Class 10 English papers post goes into detail.
A sudden switch rarely works. A step-by-step ladder does, and a parent can watch each rung take hold:
Speaking grows from the same routine: at the end of each visit the child explains the day's passage aloud, and in time that becomes a short talk followed by questions. Families who want spoken fluency for its own sake should say so early, and our spoken English guide for students has more ideas.
In the primary years the target is a child who reads willingly and writes legibly; board technique comes much later. Warning signs include guessing words from their opening sound, skipping lines and steering clear of books. Short, frequent practice suits this age: sound out a handful of new words, read a page aloud with gentle help, and ask the child to retell it. Keep sessions brief and bright. Where little English is spoken at home, a tutor who talks in easy English about pictures, and uses Punjabi or Hindi only when a word gets stuck, works well. Look for someone who enjoys teaching young children rather than a senior-class specialist.
Local teachers for ISC, IGCSE and IB English are fewer, so many families mix in online lessons. The national English home tutor guide treats each course in more depth.
English improves through steady weekly practice, so a clear address and a fixed hour matter. Every colony's tutors are on our Jalandhar page.
Lajpat Nagar is a development scheme on Model Town Road; write "Jalandhar" with it, since Delhi has a Lajpat Nagar too, and add the street and a nearby chowk. Requests here often concern early reading and handwriting, where a patient primary tutor fits. New Jawahar Nagar is on the same side; use the full name and the lane. Avtar Nagar, close to Model Town and GTB Nagar, is easiest with the street and a turning people recognise.
Chhoti Baradari is a PUDA colony on Garha Road in two phases, so write Phase I or Phase II first. Families here often ask for spoken and written English, from a shy Class 7 child to a Class 12 essay writer. In Urban Estate Phase 1, now looked after by the Jalandhar Development Authority, give "Phase 1" clearly, because Phase 2 is next door.
In Jalandhar Cantt, run by its own Cantonment Board, entry rules for visitors can apply in parts, so share what a tutor will need. A child who joined mid-year from another board may need the new board's writing formats taught quickly.
The Model Town and GTB Nagar zone page and the Jalandhar home tuition guide add more.
Five quick checks after the first lesson:
If something felt wrong, let us know; another shortlisted tutor can give a demo, and you can change tutor later at no cost. Online English suits most children from around Class 3, as long as the tutor reviews written work first through notebook photos or a shared document, and it opens the door to ISC, IGCSE and IB specialists elsewhere. Beginners, children new to English medium and those who need someone beside them usually learn better in person. See online tutors for Jalandhar for that option.
Across NXTutors, most home-tuition sessions fall between ₹800 and ₹2,500 an hour; Classes 11–12, IB/IGCSE and JEE/NEET sit toward the upper end; specialists for IB HL or JEE Advanced can charge more. Tutors fix their own rates. Expect a quote to reflect the class, the board, the tutor's experience with that paper, the ride to your colony and how many lessons you book each week. Rates are visible before the demo, and the Jalandhar home tuition fees article suggests what to ask.
Class, board, the skill you are worried about, the language your child is most at ease in, your colony and a landmark, the hours you can offer and a budget. Two or three English tutors come back with their fees, and you pick one for a free demo. Tutors who join go through an ID check; the Verified badge appears only after the ID check is complete (how we check tutors). NXTutors works from Sector 66, Gurugram, and teaches online across India.
In Jalandhar, see also maths and science; elsewhere in Punjab, English tutors in Ludhiana. English teachers who live in the city can find open requests on Jalandhar tuition jobs.

Look at where the marks are being lost on recent school papers. Slow or off-track unseen answers point to reading; lost marks on letters and notices point to writing formats; correct worksheets but error-filled essays point to grammar in use; and silence when asked a question points to speaking.
In 2026-27, reading carries 20 marks, writing and grammar 20, and literature 40. Literature comes from First Flight and Footprints without Feet. Writing means a formal letter and an analytical paragraph of 5 marks each, with grammar worth 10. The school adds 20 internal marks, including 5 for listening and speaking.
The tutor should teach from the Punjab School Education Board's own English textbook. Practice should use the board's question bank and model test papers, with formats and dates checked on pseb.ac.in. Explaining in Punjabi or Hindi is fine at first, with English steadily taking over as the child grows more confident.
ICSE English is really two subjects, each with its own paper. English Language and Literature in English each have an 80-mark paper and 20 internal marks. The language paper includes a 300 to 350 word composition, a letter, a notice with an e-mail, a summary and grammar, while listening and speaking carry 10 marks each.
The move goes most smoothly in gradual stages rather than an overnight switch. A tutor can start with two-way translation, add a page of English reading every day with a word notebook, give ready sentence frames for letters and answers, and then switch lessons to English only on a date the family agrees.
From around Class 3, online English works for most children if the tutor sees written work first. Notebook photos or a shared file are enough for that. Early readers, children just moving into English medium and those who need someone beside them usually do better with a home tutor, at least for the first months.
In Lajpat Nagar, on Model Town Road, write Jalandhar with the colony name because Delhi has one too. Add the street and a chowk. In Chhoti Baradari on Garha Road, put Phase I or Phase II first. Then give the class, board, the skill that needs work and the reader your child uses.
Once you send the class, board, weak skill, colony and free hours, we reply with two or three matched English tutors. Each tutor's fee is on the shortlist, the first class is a free demo, and switching tutor later is free if your child does not settle with the first choice.
