Why a Strong GCSE English Grade is Key for Their Future
GCSE English is more than just another qualification; it’s a foundation for your child’s next steps. The skills they build aren't just for exams – they're for life. Learning how to analyse a quote from 'Macbeth' or structure a persuasive essay teaches them how to think critically and communicate clearly. These are the very skills that colleges, universities, and employers look for, giving your child the best possible start.

Holly E
Holly has been tutoring my son in English GCSE for the last half term. He has found the lessons very useful, working in a logical order through the different aspects of the curriculum. Holly is friendly, approachable and encouraging.
My Son has just had his mock exam results and has moved from just hitting an exam grade boundary to being 2 points off the next grade up. We are very pleased at his progress in a short space of time.

Mamun A
My son is really improving since starting lessons with Mamun. From the start of the lesson getting almost all questions wrong to by the end completely understanding it all. Tested him a few days later and he got almost every question right without any help at all he remembered all the punctuation in all questions, shocked how much he's improved from just one lesson on it! Mamun's teaching is brilliant and it really seems to stick in my sons head. Also my son is very fussy with his ASD/ADHD and is often open about his feelings towards people, especially new people most often than not he will say he doesn't like this person because of this or that, but he said he likes his tutor and wants to do more lessons which is brilliant. Mamun is always on time, very patient and explains thoroughly, he gives brilliant feedback afterwards too. Highly recommend this tutor and I'm glad I chose him rather than someone else.

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.

asked questions

Can a tutor help my child get the grades for The College Merthyr Tydfil?
Absolutely. Our tutors specialise in helping students secure the grades they need for their next step. They can focus specifically on the GCSE English curriculum to build the skills and confidence your child needs to achieve that vital pass mark required for college entry.
My child goes to Afon Taf High School. Can a tutor align with their schoolwork?
Yes, definitely. Our tutors are experienced in tailoring their support to what your child is learning at school. They can help with specific homework, revise topics covered in class, and prepare them for school tests and exams, ensuring the tuition directly supports their work at Afon Taf.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's simple to find a great match. You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos. We recommend messaging a few to discuss your child's needs before booking. This helps you find someone your child will connect with.
What if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you have the perfect match. 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 much does an online English tutor in Treharris 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 an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden costs or fees.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions without fear of judgement. Tutors break down difficult topics into smaller, manageable steps, celebrating small wins along the way and showing your child that they are capable of succeeding.
Are all the tutors background-checked?

What happens in a typical online English lesson?
Lessons take place in our online classroom, which features a video chat and an interactive whiteboard. A tutor might work through a tricky piece of poetry with your child, help them plan an essay, or practise exam techniques for a specific paper. Every session is recorded so your child can re-watch it anytime.
How long will it take to see results?
Every child learns at their own pace, but consistency is key. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence after just a few sessions. Our data shows that 90% of our students improve by at least one grade with regular tuition.
Can a tutor help with specific GCSE texts like 'An Inspector Calls'?
Yes. Many of our English tutors are GCSE specialists who have extensive experience teaching the key texts on the curriculum. They can help your child analyse characters, themes, and quotes to build a deep understanding and write high-scoring essays.
Is tutoring just for core academic subjects?
Not at all! While we have thousands of expert tutors for subjects like English, Maths, and Science, you can also find tutors for a huge range of other skills. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, speak Spanish, or even get into coding, we have a tutor who can help.
How does online tutoring work?
It's designed to be simple and convenient. All lessons happen in our purpose-built online classroom. All your child needs is a computer or tablet with a webcam and a stable internet connection. You can schedule lessons at a time that suits your family, all from the comfort of your own home.
