Why Strong English Grades Are So Important for Their Future
Strong grades in English Language and Literature are more than just a pass; they are a key that unlocks doors. These subjects teach your child how to build a convincing argument, analyse complex texts like 'Macbeth', and communicate their ideas clearly – skills that are essential for A-Levels and university. We know how much this matters, which is why 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. For GCSEs, that can mean a jump of up to two grades, turning a potential grade 6 into a grade 8.

Focused English Support, When Your Child Needs It Most
The right tutor does more than just teach; they build a real connection with your child. They take the time to understand their specific learning style, their strengths, and the areas where they feel less confident. Because we only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, you can feel reassured that your child is learning from a background-checked expert who is genuinely invested in their success. Every online lesson is built around your child's exact needs. Whether they're struggling to structure an essay for English Language or need to go over key quotes for their literature exam, their tutor will create a plan that targets those areas. This focused, one-to-one attention helps them make real, noticeable progress in a way that isn't always possible in a busy classroom.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is aiming for Esher Sixth Form College. Can a tutor help them secure the necessary English GCSE grades?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experts in the GCSE curriculum and have a great track record of helping students achieve the higher grades (7-9) needed for competitive sixth forms like Esher. They can focus on exam technique and subject knowledge to give your child the best chance of success.
We're worried about our child's chances for a Russell Group university. How can an English tutor help?
A strong English A-Level is highly valued by Russell Group universities. A tutor can help your child build a solid foundation at GCSE, ensuring they develop the deep analytical and communication skills needed to excel at A-Level and write a compelling personal statement for their university application.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message tutors for free to get a feel for their approach. Think about what your child needs – is it confidence with poetry, or help with essay structure? Finding someone your child connects with is the most important step.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your first choice of tutor for any reason, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How much does an English tutor in Walton-on-Thames cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and level of study. Tutors set their own rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles, so you can find an experienced tutor that fits your family's budget.
Are your tutors' backgrounds checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every tutor and all tutors must have a valid DBS check. We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident your child is in safe, expert hands.
How do online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It's a simple and effective way for your child to learn from home.
How can tutoring help build my child's confidence in English?
One-to-one attention in a supportive space works wonders for confidence. When your child has a tutor who celebrates their progress and helps them overcome challenges without the pressure of the classroom, they start to believe in their own abilities.
Can a tutor help with both English Language and English Literature?
Yes, many of our English tutors are experienced in teaching both parts of the GCSE and A-Level curriculum. You can see their specific areas of expertise on their profiles and discuss your child's needs with them directly before booking.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or guitar?
While we have fantastic tutors for core academic subjects, we also have experts in a huge range of other areas. Your child can learn anything from a new language or a musical instrument to practical skills like coding.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one session a week is a great starting point for consistent progress. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange sessions with your tutor as often as you feel your child needs them, especially in the run-up to exams.
How long does a typical tutoring session last?
The standard lesson length is one hour. This gives enough time to dive into a topic properly without your child losing focus. You can, of course, discuss different session lengths with your tutor if you feel it would be beneficial.
