Why a Strong GCSE English Grade Matters for Their Future
English is more than just a subject; it's the foundation for success in all others. The ability to analyse a complex text in 'An Inspector Calls', articulate a persuasive argument, or structure a clear essay are skills that universities and employers value highly. A strong pass in GCSE English doesn't just meet a requirement—it gives your child the communication and critical thinking skills they'll need for competitive A-Levels, degrees at Russell Group universities, and their future career.

Harry L
Our son has dyslexia and had taken his GCSE English several times without passing. He was demoralized with the whole process. We had 6 weeks before the next attempt and we were lucky enough to find Harry. He said that in his first lesson with him he had learnt more about exam technique than he had in all of his GCSE lessons. Today he got a grade 5 which seemed impossible before Harry's tutor sessions. Thankyou very much Harry, our family is extremely grateful for your particular teaching skills and supporting our son to success.

He really enjoyed your lessons and said you made everything easy to understand and enjoyable.I truly appreciate the time, patience, and encouragement you gave him. It’s made a huge difference to his confidence and attitude toward English. Thanks again for all your help — we’re both very grateful!

Amazing tutor! I went from a weak grade 3 in English Language to being just one mark off a 6. Lessons were clear, supportive, and really boosted my confidence. I couldn’t have done it without their help and would 100% recommend.

Ameena tutored our son for an English language retake and he got an 8! He went up 3 grades from a 5. Her tutoring was focussed and responsive and she did it all over about 7 weeks. Could not ask for more. Thank you so much Ameena!

Sam H
I started working with Sam quite late in the A-Level year, but despite the limited time he put in so much effort and support. He completely rebuilt my confidence in English Language and helped take me from a B to an A — the first A I’d ever achieved in English, and I got it in my actual A-Levels. He had me writing answers every week and always gave incredibly thorough, clear feedback that really helped me improve quickly. I genuinely wouldn’t have achieved my grade without him and can’t recommend him enough.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child attends a high-achieving school in Chertsey. Can a tutor help them aim for top GCSE grades (7-9)?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in helping students target the highest grades. They have a deep understanding of the exam specifications and can teach the specific analytical and writing skills needed to help your child move from a good grade to a great one.
We're hoping for a place at a Russell Group university or Royal Holloway. How can an English tutor help?
A strong English A-Level is often a key requirement for top universities. A tutor can help your child secure the GCSE grade they need to access the right A-Level courses. They also teach critical thinking and essay-writing skills that are essential for university applications and study.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and filter by experience and price. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking. Finding someone your child connects with is the most important step.
What if my child doesn't click with their 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 tutor, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How do you make sure your tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is interviewed, background-checked with an enhanced DBS check, and has their ID and qualifications verified. We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply to our platform.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can easily filter tutors on our site by price to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
My child has lost their confidence in English. Can a tutor help with that?
Yes, this is one of the most powerful benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor creates a patient, encouraging environment where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Rebuilding that self-belief is often the first step to seeing their grades improve.
How do the online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs: video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents and past papers. It's a simple and effective way to learn from the comfort of your own home.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families opt for one lesson per week to build momentum and see consistent progress. However, the schedule is completely flexible and up to you. You can arrange lessons with your tutor at a frequency that suits your child's needs and your family's schedule.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or guitar?
While we're experts in academic subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also have talented tutors who teach a huge range of other skills! You can find tutors for everything from coding and music production to learning a new language or playing the guitar.
How quickly will we see an improvement in my child's work?
Every child learns at their own pace, but the personalised focus of one-to-one tutoring often leads to progress quickly. Many parents tell us they notice a boost in their child's confidence and understanding within the first few sessions.
How can I track my child's progress?
We encourage open communication. You can message your tutor at any time to ask for updates. Many tutors provide regular feedback on the topics covered and the progress your child is making towards their goals.
