Why a Strong GCSE English Grade is Key for Their Future
GCSE English isn't just another subject; it's the foundation for so much of your child's future learning. Strong skills in analysing texts, from a Shakespearean play like 'Macbeth' to unseen poetry, are vital for almost every A-Level. It's this ability to communicate clearly and think critically that colleges and top universities look for, opening doors to the best courses and future careers.

Megan is a wonderful tutor!
My son has really enjoyed the sessions with her and she adapts them to ensure he is fully understanding the teaching.

I cannot recommend her enough!!

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.

Hi Myles,
I just wanted to send you a heartfelt thank-you for the English lessons you gave my son. After only three sessions with you, he managed to pass — and we couldn’t be happier! 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!

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 hopes to go to Collyer's. Can a tutor help them secure the GCSE English grade they need?
Absolutely. Many parents in Horsham come to us with this exact goal. Our tutors specialise in the GCSE English curriculum and can focus on the specific areas your child needs to strengthen to achieve the grades required for competitive sixth forms like Collyer's.
We're aiming for a course at the University of Sussex or Brighton. How can an English tutor support this?
A strong foundation in English is crucial for university applications. A tutor can help your child develop advanced analytical and essay-writing skills for their A-Levels, which are highly valued by universities like Sussex and Brighton. They can also provide support with personal statement writing.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's all about finding the right fit. You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check ratings from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking a lesson to make sure you find the perfect match.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match for your child. 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 much does online English tutoring 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 allows you to find an experienced, high-quality tutor that fits your family's budget.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple and effective. All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam and a stable internet connection.
Can a tutor help my child with their confidence?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits we see. A great tutor provides a safe and encouraging space for your child to ask questions without fear of judgement. This one-to-one attention often leads to a big boost in self-belief that carries over into the school classroom.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors undergoes a thorough vetting process, including an identity check and an enhanced DBS background check, before they can teach on our platform.
How quickly will we see an improvement in our child's English grades?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our data shows that 90% of students improve by at least one grade with regular tutoring. The key is consistency and the strong partnership your child builds with their tutor.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
While we have tutors for all core academic subjects, we also believe in learning for life. You can find expert tutors for a huge range of skills, from learning to play the guitar or piano to coding in Python.
What happens in a typical one-hour English lesson?
A typical lesson starts with the tutor checking in on your child's progress and goals. They might review homework, work through a tricky concept like analysing poetry, or practise exam techniques for a specific paper. Every session is tailored to what your child needs most at that time.
How many lessons should my child have per week?
Most families find that one hour-long lesson per week is ideal for making steady progress. However, you can arrange a schedule that works best for your child's needs and your family's routine, whether that's more frequent sessions during exam season or fortnightly top-ups.
