Why a Strong English GCSE Opens Doors for Your Child

A good grade in English is a fundamental requirement for so many A-Level courses, apprenticeships, and university degrees. It’s the subject that teaches your child how to build a convincing argument, analyse complex texts like Shakespeare, and communicate their ideas clearly. These are essential skills for higher education and their future career. With the right support, we can help improve your child's GCSE results by up to two grades, turning a subject they find tricky into one of their strengths.

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child wants to apply to The Sixth Form College, Luton. Can a tutor help them secure the necessary English grade?

Absolutely. Many parents in Luton share this goal. Our tutors are experienced in helping students meet the entry requirements for specific colleges by focusing on the core skills needed to achieve a Grade 5 or above in GCSE English. They can tailor sessions to strengthen essay writing, text analysis, and exam technique.

We're thinking about the University of Bedfordshire in the future. How does English tutoring help?

Strong communication skills are vital for university. Tutoring for English GCSE and A-Level builds a solid foundation in critical thinking and writing that is essential for degree-level study. A tutor can also help with the personal statement, a key part of the UCAS application process.

What if my child doesn't click with their first English tutor?

Finding the right personality match is so important. That's why we have our first lesson guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, 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 read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend shortlisting a few tutors who have experience with your child's specific goals—whether that's GCSE exam prep or building confidence—and sending them a message to see who feels like the best fit.

Are all your tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed an enhanced DBS check. We are very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.

How much does an online English tutor cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications, but you can easily filter tutors by price to find someone who fits your budget. The cost is displayed clearly on each tutor's profile, so there are no hidden fees.

How do online lessons actually work?

Lessons take place in our specially designed online classroom. It has a video chat function, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It’s a simple and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of home.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence?

One-to-one attention from a patient and encouraging tutor can make a huge difference. In a private lesson, your child can ask questions without feeling self-conscious. Celebrating small wins and breaking down difficult topics helps them see they are capable, which is a fantastic confidence booster.

Is tutoring just for school subjects like English?

Not at all! While we have experts for core subjects from the 11+ right up to degree level, we also have tutors for a huge range of hobbies and professional skills. Your child could learn to play the guitar, code in Python, or even learn a new language.

Can a tutor help with specific parts of the English exam, like analysing 'Macbeth'?

Yes, that's one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tuition. If your child is finding a particular text, like 'Macbeth' or 'An Inspector Calls', difficult, their tutor can dedicate entire sessions to breaking down themes, analysing key quotes, and planning essays for it.

How long will it take to see an improvement in my child's English grades?

Every child learns at their own pace, but consistency is key. Many parents notice a boost in their child's confidence after just a few sessions. Our data shows that 90% of students improve by at least one grade with regular tuition.

What makes Tutorful different from other services?

We focus on finding the perfect match for your child from a handpicked selection of the UK's best tutors. With over 4,100 reviews giving us a 4.6-star rating, parents trust us to provide high-quality, personalised, and safe online tuition that gets results.
