Why a Strong English Grade is Key to Your Child's Future

English isn't just about analysing Shakespeare or writing essays; it's the foundation for so much more. The skills your child develops—like clear communication and critical thinking—are essential for every A-Level subject and are highly valued by top universities and future employers. A strong pass in GCSE English doesn't just meet a requirement; it gives your child the confidence and ability to succeed in their chosen sixth form pathway and beyond.

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is aiming for a competitive sixth form after Backwell School. Can a tutor help with this?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students secure places at their first-choice sixth forms. They can focus on strengthening the specific skills and knowledge needed to achieve the high GCSE English grades that are often required for entry, giving your child the best possible chance of success.

We live in Nailsea, but can a tutor help my child prepare for applications to universities like Bristol or Bath?

Yes, definitely. Our tutors can provide excellent support for university applications. This can include helping your child to articulate their ideas for a personal statement, preparing them for interviews, or even working on specific entrance exams. Because it's all online, you can access specialists in university admissions from anywhere in the UK.

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

You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend shortlisting a few tutors who have experience with your child's specific goals—whether that's GCSE exam technique or building creative writing skills—and sending them a message to see who feels like the best fit.

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

We know how important the right fit is. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the right match for your child, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of 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. Every tutor is identity and background-checked before they can join our platform. We also interview every applicant and only accept 1 in 8, so you can be confident you're choosing from the very best tutors in the UK.

My child has lost their confidence in English. How can a tutor help?

This is one of the most common reasons parents come to us. A one-to-one tutor provides a safe, supportive space where your child can ask questions without fear of being judged. By breaking down difficult topics and celebrating small wins, a tutor can help rebuild their self-belief, which is just as important as improving their grades.

How much does an online English tutor cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or long-term contracts.

How does online tutoring actually work?

It's simple and effective. All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam and a stable internet connection.

How long does it take to see an improvement in my child's grades?

Every child learns at their own pace, but our data shows that 90% of students improve by at least one grade with regular tutoring. For GCSEs, we can help improve results by up to two grades. The biggest change parents often notice first is a boost in their child's confidence, which is a fantastic foundation for academic progress.

Can a tutor help with specific GCSE English texts or exam boards?

Yes. Tutors will often list their experience with specific exam boards (like AQA or Edexcel) and key texts on their profiles. When you message a tutor, you can ask about their experience with the exact book, poem, or play your child is studying to ensure they are a perfect match.

What if we need to cancel or reschedule a lesson?

It's easy to manage your schedule. You can rearrange or cancel lessons through your Tutorful account. We just ask that you give your tutor at least 24 hours' notice, as this is part of our fair cancellation policy.

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

While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like English, Maths and Science, we also offer a huge range of other skills. Whether your child wants to learn a musical instrument like the guitar, get into coding with Python, or even learn a new language, you can find an expert tutor on Tutorful.
