Why a Strong GCSE English Grade is So Important
English isn't just about analysing Shakespeare; it's the key that unlocks your child's future. A Grade 5 or higher in both Language and Literature is often essential for securing a place on the best A-Level courses at local colleges. It develops critical thinking and communication skills that are vital for competitive university applications, including places at the University of Nottingham and Nottingham Trent. With our tutors, 90% of students improve by at least one grade, and we can help your child improve their GCSE results by up to 2 grades, opening doors you might have worried were closing.

Paul M
Excellent English tutor
Maths is pure hell for some. It was for me as a young boy and I thought that because I didn't get the answers right it meant that I was no good.I didn't understand numbers, the vocabulary used for the abstract nature of maths and it left me feeling bereft of confidence. I am glad nowadays maths is taught in a more simpler fashion and I am proof that if maths is accessible in the right way, is fun and more importantly the fear factor is removed then anyone can prosper. That is how I like to approach maths and I feel that it is a fantastic way to enjoy, and dare I say it... love the subject.I am...

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.

asked questions
See all FAQs
My child attends the National Academy. Can a tutor help them secure a Grade 5+ in GCSE English?
Absolutely. Our tutors are very familiar with the pressures of GCSEs. They can create a tailored plan focusing on the specific skills needed to achieve a Grade 5 or higher, whether that's in English Language or Literature, giving your child the best chance to progress to their chosen A-Level courses.
We're aiming for A-Levels at a college in Nottingham. How can an English tutor support this goal?
A strong GCSE English grade is a key requirement for many A-Level courses. A tutor can help your child master the curriculum, refine their exam technique, and build the confidence needed to secure the grades that open doors to top local colleges and sixth forms.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can view tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. You can also send them a message to discuss your child's needs before booking a lesson to ensure they're a great fit.
How much does online English tuition cost in Hucknall?
Our tutors set their own rates, so prices vary depending on their experience and qualifications. You can easily filter tutors by price to find an expert who fits your budget, with prices clearly displayed on every profile.
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.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed an identity check and has an up-to-date DBS check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?

Every child learns at a different pace, but consistent, tailored support makes a real difference. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade, often feeling more confident and engaged after just a few sessions.
What exam boards do your English tutors cover?
Our tutors have experience with all the major UK exam boards, including AQA, Edexcel, and OCR. You can check a tutor's profile to see which boards they specialise in or message them directly to ask.
Can I track my child's progress?
Yes. Many of our tutors provide session feedback to keep you updated on what's been covered and how your child is getting on. You can also message your tutor at any time to discuss their progress and goals.
