English isn't just another subject; it's the foundation for so much of your child's future. Strong skills in English – from analysing a quote in 'Macbeth' to structuring a persuasive essay – are essential for almost every A-Level course and university degree. Securing a good GCSE grade can be the key that unlocks their place at their chosen sixth form and puts them on the right path for future opportunities, whether that's at the University of East Anglia or beyond.

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child hopes to apply to Abbeygate Sixth Form College. Can a tutor help them secure the English GCSE grade they need?

Absolutely. Many parents in Mildenhall share that goal. Our tutors are experienced in helping students aim for specific grades needed for entry into competitive sixth forms. They can focus on exam technique, close gaps in knowledge, and build the confidence your child needs to achieve their best.

We live in Mildenhall. How does online tutoring work if the tutor isn't local?

Online tutoring gives you access to the best tutors across the UK, not just those nearby. Your child will have lessons in our interactive online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing. It’s a convenient and effective way to learn from home.

How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?

You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We have a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 reviews, so you can feel confident in your choice. We recommend messaging a few tutors to find the best personality fit for your child.

What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?

We want to make sure you find the perfect match. 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 can a tutor help my child if they've lost their confidence in English?

Confidence is key. A one-to-one tutor provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By breaking down difficult topics and celebrating small wins, they help rebuild your child’s self-belief, which often has the biggest impact on their grades.

How much does an online English tutor cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile. There are no hidden fees or contracts, so you have complete flexibility.

How are your tutors vetted?

Your child's safety and quality of learning are our top priorities. We personally interview every tutor and all must have a valid DBS background check. We are very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply to join our platform.

How does Tutorful help with GCSE English specifically?

Our tutors are experts in the GCSE curriculum. They can help your child understand the marking criteria, improve their essay technique, and revise key texts and poems. We know how much these exams matter, and we can help improve your child's GCSE results by up to 2 grades.

Do you only offer academic subjects like English, or can you help with other skills?

While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also offer a huge range of other skills. You can find tutors for everything from learning a musical instrument like the guitar to practical skills like coding.

What technology do we need for online lessons?

It's very simple. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is browser-based, so there's no software to download.

How long is a typical tutoring session?

Most sessions are one hour long. This gives enough time to cover a topic in depth without your child losing focus. However, you can discuss different session lengths with your tutor to find what works best.

How often should my child have a lesson?

Most families find that one session a week is ideal for consistent progress. However, the schedule is completely flexible. You might want to arrange more sessions in the run-up to an exam or less frequent lessons for general support. It's entirely up to you and your tutor.
