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.

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?
One-to-one tuition provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling judged. By working at their pace and celebrating small wins, tutors help them overcome learning barriers and see that they are capable of success, which boosts their confidence in the classroom.
How do the online lessons actually work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. It’s a simple and effective way to learn from the comfort of your home, with no travel required.
Is Tutorful just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we offer fantastic support for academic subjects from Primary through to university level, we also have tutors for a huge range of other skills. Your child could learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or even learn a new language.
How quickly will I see an improvement in my child's English grades?
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.
