Why Strong English Skills Open Doors for Your Child
English isn't just another subject; it's the foundation for success across the board. The ability to analyse a complex text, structure a persuasive argument, or unpick a tricky quote from 'Macbeth' are skills that universities and employers value highly. A strong GCSE in English is a key qualification that helps secure places at college and opens up a wider range of future career paths. It gives your child the communication skills they need to express their ideas clearly and confidently, preparing them for the next step in their education and beyond.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is aiming for Cirencester College. Can a tutor help them secure the right GCSE English grade?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors are GCSE specialists and can focus specifically on the analytical and essay-writing skills needed to boost your child's grades. They can work through past papers and target weak spots to build their confidence for exam day. We know that strong GCSEs can improve a child's results by up to 2 grades.
We live near Stroud and feel the pressure of the grammar schools. Can you help my child prepare?
We understand the local pressure. While we don't offer specific 11+ entrance exam preparation, our tutors are brilliant at building the core English comprehension and writing skills that are essential for success in any competitive academic environment. This strong foundation will serve your child well, wherever they apply.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It’s easy to find the perfect match on our platform. You can filter tutors by their experience with the GCSE or A-Level curriculum, watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their teaching style, and read reviews from other parents. You can even message a tutor before booking to make sure they're the right fit for your child.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect fit, which is why we have a 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 much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, typically starting from around £20 per hour. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study. You can easily filter by price on our search page to find a great tutor who fits your family's budget.
How can an online tutor help my child build confidence?
One-to-one tuition provides a safe space for your child to ask questions without the fear of getting it wrong in front of a class. Our tutors are patient and encouraging, helping to break down difficult topics into manageable steps. This personalised support often leads to 'lightbulb moments' that really boost a student's self-belief.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors has passed an enhanced DBS background check. We also interview every applicant and only accept 1 in 8, so you can be completely confident in your choice.
What happens in a typical online lesson?
Our online classroom is designed to be interactive and engaging. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard for working through problems together, and a way to share documents like past papers or essays. It has all the benefits of face-to-face tutoring, with the convenience of learning from home.
My child's ambitions are for a top university like Bristol or Bath. Can a tutor help with the step up to A-Level English?
Definitely. Many of our tutors are A-Level specialists and have experience helping students develop the more sophisticated critical thinking and independent study skills required for sixth form and university applications. They can help bridge the gap between GCSE and A-Level, ensuring your child is fully prepared for the challenge.
How long are the tutoring sessions?
Lessons are typically one hour long, as this is usually the most effective timeframe for keeping students engaged. However, you can discuss your child's needs directly with your chosen tutor, as many are flexible and can arrange longer or shorter sessions if needed.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Our tutors provide regular feedback to both you and your child. They will work with you to set clear goals at the start and will keep you updated on the progress being made. You can also message your tutor at any time through our platform to ask questions or discuss their development.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or music?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we have fantastic tutors for core academic subjects like English, Maths and Science, you can also find experts to teach your child practical and creative skills like coding, playing the guitar, or learning a new language.
