Why a Strong English GCSE Opens Doors for Your Child

English isn't just another subject; it's a fundamental qualification that employers and universities look for. A good grade in English Language and Literature gives your child the freedom to choose their next step, whether that's an apprenticeship, a course at Coleg Gwent, or a degree at the University of South Wales. The skills they build – from analysing quotes in 'Macbeth' to writing a persuasive argument – are skills for life, helping them communicate clearly and confidently in whatever they choose to do.

Personalised English Tutoring That Makes a Difference

We believe the best learning happens when a tutor truly understands your child. That's why we're so selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor is an expert in their subject, interviewed by us, and background-checked, so you can feel confident you're choosing from the very best. They’ll take the time to get to know your child's learning style and build a supportive relationship that helps them thrive. Every one-to-one lesson is planned around your child's unique needs. If they're struggling with poetry analysis or need to sharpen their essay writing for their exams, their tutor will create sessions that target those exact areas. This focused approach is why 90% of our students improve by at least one grade, and for GCSEs, we can help them improve by up to two grades. Finding the perfect English tutor in Abersychan is simple, and because it’s all online, you can forget about extra travel. Lessons can be scheduled at times that fit around your family's life, right from the comfort of your own home.

Michael B
Friendly, enthusiastic English Tutor
I absolutely love what I do, and channel that enthusiasm within each of my lessons. I believe a child can very easily see if a teacher is passionate about what they are teaching, which is why I believe only those who absolutely love their profession should teach. I want to provide the most engaging and challenging lesson for myself, because I hold very high standards for my quality of work, but more importantly, for the child. I want a child to leave each session safe in the knowledge that they have learnt something new that day.I like to approach each session differently, learning what interests...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child hopes to study at Coleg Gwent. Can a tutor help them secure the English GCSE grade they need?

Yes, absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in helping students meet the entry requirements for colleges like Coleg Gwent. They can focus specifically on the GCSE curriculum, helping your child strengthen weak areas and build the confidence they need to get the grades required for their chosen course.

We're worried a weak English grade could affect their chances for the University of South Wales. Can a tutor help?

Definitely. A strong English qualification is often a key requirement for university entry. A tutor can work with your child to develop the advanced analytical and writing skills needed for A-Levels and beyond, ensuring their university application is as strong as it can be.

How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?

You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. Many tutors offer a free 15-minute chat so you and your child can meet them first to ensure it's a great fit.

What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

It's really important that your child feels comfortable with their tutor. 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 I be sure the tutors are safe and qualified?

Your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every tutor, verify their ID, and require them to have a valid DBS background check. We are also very selective, with only 1 in 8 applicants making it onto our platform, so you can be sure you're choosing from experienced, high-quality educators.

How much does online English tutoring cost?

Our tutors set their own hourly rates, typically starting from around £20 per hour. The price is based on their experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's rate clearly on their profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget.

How does online tutoring work?

It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing tools, making it easy for your child to collaborate with their tutor just as if they were in the same room.

Can a tutor help if my child has lost their confidence in English?

Yes, this is one of the most powerful benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor provides a patient, encouraging environment where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Rebuilding that confidence is often the first step to seeing their grades improve.

How long will it take to see an improvement?

Every child learns at their own pace, but our tailored approach is designed to get results. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. Consistent weekly lessons are usually the best way to build momentum and see steady progress.

What happens in a typical English lesson?

A tutor will tailor the lesson to your child's specific goals. This could involve anything from breaking down a tricky poem and analysing its meaning, to planning an essay structure for an upcoming assignment, or working on grammar and punctuation exercises to improve their writing.

How flexible are the lesson times?

Very flexible. Our tutors manage their own schedules, so you can find someone who can hold lessons at a time that works for your family, whether that's after school, in the evening, or at the weekend. You can arrange it all directly with your chosen tutor.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or can you help with other skills?

While we have experts in all core academic subjects, we also offer tutoring in a huge range of other areas. You can find tutors for everything from learning a musical instrument like guitar or piano, to practical skills like coding, public speaking, and even university admissions support.
