English Experienced English GCSE Tutor
I inspire my students to think creatively about language and imagery and to visualise literary concepts in a way they understand. I give students practical knowledge about writing techniques and accurate use of language. I also give students clear step by step guidance so they feel confident and can eventually work independently. I seek to set up frameworks and questions that prompt students to use the knowledge they already have and to keep building their learning.

My son had a few English GCSE lessons with Ian now and he’s been great. He explains things clearly, is very patient, and always gives helpful feedback. He even stays a bit longer sometimes to finish the lesson properly. Really appreciate his support!

Megan G
Over the past few months, Megan has been an incredible support for my son during what has been a very challenging period for him. Her patience and encouragement has made a huge difference not only to his English and maths skills but also to his confidence and attitude towards learning.
Megan has adapted each lesson to his needs, finding creative ways to help him stay engaged. It’s clear she puts a tremendous amount of thought and effort into her teaching.
I am truly grateful for everything and cannot recommend Megan highly enough.

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.

Brilliant English tutors who you’ll really click with.
Our experienced tutors take the time to understand where each student needs to focus and their preferred way of learning. They make a measurable difference – 90% of all students improve by at least one grade.
My child has their heart set on Thomas Rotherham College. Can a tutor help them achieve the GCSE English grade they need?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are GCSE English specialists with a great track record of helping students secure the grades needed for competitive post-16 providers. They can focus specifically on the areas of the curriculum your child finds challenging to build their skills and confidence ahead of their exams.
We live in Rotherham. Are the tutors local?
Because all our tutoring is online, your child can connect with the very best English tutors from across the UK, not just in the Rotherham area. This gives you a much wider choice of specialists, so you can find the perfect match for your child's personality and learning needs, no matter where you live.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We want to make sure it's the right fit. We have a first lesson guarantee, so if you don't get on with your tutor, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check ratings and reviews from other parents. We recommend shortlisting a few tutors who seem like a good fit and sending them a message to discuss your child's needs before booking.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study. This means you can find an excellent, affordable tutor who fits your family's budget.
How can tutoring help if my child lacks confidence in English?
Confidence is key! In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might be too shy to ask in class. Tutors are brilliant at breaking down difficult topics, celebrating small wins, and tailoring their teaching style to make your child feel capable and motivated.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed an enhanced DBS check and we verify their ID. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe hands.
What technology do we need for online lessons?
It's simple. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom has all the tools needed, like an interactive whiteboard, so you don't need any special software.
How do I know if my child is making progress?
Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's progress. You can also message them at any time to discuss how things are going. Seeing your child's confidence grow and their school results improve is often the clearest sign of progress.
Can tutoring help with both English Language and English Literature?
Yes, definitely. Many of our English tutors are experts in both GCSE English Language and English Literature. They can help your child switch between analysing poetry and perfecting their persuasive writing skills, covering all aspects of the curriculum.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
Most sessions are one hour long, as this gives enough time to cover a topic in depth without being overwhelming. However, you can discuss your needs directly with your tutor, as many are flexible.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something like guitar or coding?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum! Whether your child wants to learn a musical instrument like the guitar, get into coding with Python, or even learn a new language for fun, you can find an expert tutor to help them explore their passions.
