How Great English Skills Can Shape Your Child's Future
Strong English skills are about more than just passing an exam; they're the foundation for success. It's the ability to communicate ideas clearly, think critically, and understand the world more deeply. These are the skills your child will use to master creative writing for the 11+, analyse complex texts like 'An Inspector Calls' for their GCSEs at Thurstable, and later, write a compelling university application to places like the University of Essex and beyond.

Janan S
Janan is such a great tutor! She explains things really well and is able to fully break down areas I struggle with in English and make it easy to follow. She is also very personable and creates an easy atmosphere and is very understanding when I am behind in assignments for her, having a very dedicated work ethic, making up for what I lack. She creates a very welcoming environment and I genuinely do enjoy our lessons. Also she has helped direct me towards revision strategy’s as well so I do feel I have improved too in that areas and in English in general too. Would strongly recommend!

Frances H
Frances has been helping my daughter with English and SPaG in preparation for her SATs and after just a few sessions, I’ve seen a difference. She sets weekly homework, takes a genuine interest in my daughter’s week and makes learning fun by playing games like hangman to aid spelling. My daughter is engaged and is starting to really grasp the content. Frances is patient, encouraging and explains things clearly, which has already boosted my daughter’s confidence.

We are 3 lessons in and already I can see the difference in confidence it has given my son. Alex has been great at engaging in sessions that are interactive, which suit my son's learning style. He is focusing on areas of weakness and breaking things down simply to give him the tools to improve his grades. Time will tell, but so far we are both really happy.

Flora I
We are absolutely delighted with the English tuition Flora is providing for our son in preparation for his GCSEs. He is really enjoying her lessons and already finding them extremely helpful. Flora listens carefully, offers clear and thoughtful advice, and focuses on strengthening his knowledge in a way that feels supportive and encouraging. Each lesson is very well structured, which has really helped build his confidence.
Although he has only had a few lessons so far, he already feels they will make a real difference and help him focus on exactly what he needs to prioritise for his exams. This is exactly what we hoped Flora would deliver, and we couldn’t be happier with the start she has made.

How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can read tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs before booking. Finding someone your child connects with is the most important step.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

How can tutoring help my child feel more confident in English?
One-to-one tutoring provides a safe space for your child to ask questions without fear of getting it wrong. As they start to grasp tricky topics and see their skills improve, their self-belief naturally grows. This boost in confidence often has a positive impact on their other subjects too.
My child finds analysing Macbeth really difficult. Can a tutor focus just on that?
Of course. That's the main benefit of one-to-one tutoring. The lessons are completely tailored to your child. The tutor can spend as much time as needed on specific areas, whether it's understanding Shakespearean language, analysing quotes, or structuring an essay.
How long does a typical tutoring session last?
The standard lesson length is one hour, which is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can arrange different session lengths by discussing it directly with your chosen tutor.
How quickly can we get started?
You can get started very quickly. Simply search for a tutor, send them a message to check their availability, and you can book your first session. Many families are able to find a tutor and have their first lesson within a day or two.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills like music or coding?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the core academic ones. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with Python coding, or even learn a new language, you can find brilliant, expert tutors on our platform.
