Why Strong GCSE English Grades Open Doors for Your Child
Achieving a high grade in English is more than just a pass; it's a key that unlocks your child's future. It's the foundation for all essay-based A-levels and a requirement for many competitive university courses at places like Keele or Manchester. The skills they'll develop – from analysing a quote in 'Macbeth' to crafting a persuasive argument – are the exact skills they'll need to excel in higher education and their future career. Strong English grades show they can think critically and communicate clearly, which is what top institutions look for.

Personalised English Support to Help Your Child Thrive
The right tutor can make all the difference. We only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best. They are experts in the GCSE curriculum and take the time to understand your child's unique learning style and where they need the most help. Whether it's mastering poetry analysis or structuring essays, their tutor will provide expert, patient guidance, turning 'I can't do this' into 'I understand'. Every online lesson is built around your child. There's no one-size-fits-all approach here. If your child is aiming for a grade 9, their sessions will focus on advanced techniques to help them stand out. If they're feeling stuck, their tutor will go back to basics to build a solid foundation. This tailored support works – 90% of our students improve by at least one grade, with many GCSE students improving by up to two grades. Finding the right support shouldn't add to your family's stress. With our online lessons, you can find a background-checked tutor and schedule sessions at times that fit around your busy life in Alsager. No extra travel, just effective, one-to-one learning from the comfort of your home. It’s why over 200,000 students have trusted us to help them succeed.

Josh L
Josh has been tutoring my son for several weeks now. When asking my son what he thought of the sessions she shared that the lessons were varied and he makes it interesting and fun, ( My Son is in year 10 - age 14) We were looking for a tutor to help my son with his English as he had a difficult year last year with his teacher and it became a dread and a stress. Having Josh tutoring him has given him more confidence in the subject. He is keen to have the lesson and always comes down afterwards and shares something good about it. He seems to be progressing well at school and I know these sessions can only be helping with that.

Grace B
My daughter worked with Grace as she wanted to re-take her English Language GCSE to improve her grade. My daughter thought Grace was a fantastic teacher. After her first lesson she said she had learnt more in an hour with her than she had in her previous two years at school! She has a lovely friendly manner and put my daughter at ease straight away. She also puts a lot into the lessons through preparation, marking and generally guiding the learning where it's needed most. As an examiner herself she also has a clear understanding of what students need to work on to succeed. Couldn't recommend her highly enough and whether or not my daughter does improve her grade, I know that the lessons were worthwhile. Thank you Grace!

John M
John has been nothing short of a miracle worker with our Year 9 son. In a matter of a few lessons his confidence in English has really grown. He was previously really disengaged with English & it was a real effort to get him to spend any amount of time on it. Now with John’s encouragement, he actually shows me his English homework & wants to improve, work at it. Highly recommend

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child wants to apply to South Cheshire College. Can a tutor help them stand out?
Absolutely. Our tutors can focus specifically on the skills needed to achieve the top-tier GCSE English grades (8 or 9) that make an application to a competitive sixth form like South Cheshire College much stronger. They can help your child develop the advanced analytical and writing skills that will set them apart.
We're in Alsager. How can an online tutor help my child compete with students from grammar schools?
An online tutor provides personalised, one-to-one attention that your child might not get in a larger class. This allows them to focus on your child's specific weak spots and build their confidence. By tailoring lessons to their exact needs, a tutor can help them master the curriculum and develop the skills to perform at the same high level as any other student, regardless of their school.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is for your child's 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 I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and use our messaging service to chat with them before booking. Look for someone with specific experience in the area your child needs help with, whether that's GCSE English Language or A-Level Literature.
How much does online English tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, so you can find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
Are your tutors qualified and safe to work with my child?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every tutor and they all undergo a background check. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident your child is learning from a trusted and verified expert.
How can tutoring build my child's confidence?
Often, a lack of confidence comes from not understanding a topic. In a one-to-one setting, your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. As their tutor helps them overcome challenges and they start to see their own progress, their self-belief grows naturally.
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. All they need is a laptop or computer with a webcam and a stable internet connection.
How can a tutor help my child with GCSE English specifically?
Our tutors are experts in the GCSE syllabus. They can break down complex texts, help your child structure essays for maximum marks, and practise exam techniques. This focused support is why 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.
What's the difference between English Language and English Literature tutoring?
English Literature focuses on analysing texts like plays, novels, and poems. English Language focuses on how language is used, including analysing non-fiction texts and developing your child's own writing skills. Many of our tutors are experts in both and can help your child across the entire English curriculum.
How long will it take to see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our tailored approach means you can see progress quickly. Many parents tell us they notice a boost in their child's confidence and understanding after just a few sessions.
Is it just for school subjects, or can you help with other skills?
While we have experts in all core academic subjects, we also have talented tutors who can teach a huge range of other skills. From learning to play the guitar or speak Spanish, to coding in Python, there's a tutor for almost any interest.
