Why a Strong English GCSE is Key to Your Child's Future
English is more than just a subject; it's the foundation for clear communication and critical thinking. A strong pass in GCSE English opens doors, whether that's to further education or a promising career. The skills your child develops – from analysing a poem to writing a persuasive letter – are the very same skills they'll use in college interviews, job applications, and throughout their working life. It gives them the tools to express their ideas confidently and achieve their goals.

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.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child wants to apply for a course at Coleg y Cymoedd. Can a tutor help with their application?
Absolutely. A strong personal statement is crucial for college applications. Our English tutors can help your child structure their thoughts, write persuasively, and check their grammar and spelling to make sure their application stands out for all the right reasons.
We live in Abertidwr. How does online tutoring work if the tutor isn't local?
The great thing about online tutoring is that geography isn't a barrier. Your child can connect with the best English tutors from across the UK, not just those nearby. All lessons take place in our interactive online classroom with video chat and a shared whiteboard, so it feels just like they're in the same room.
How do I find the right English tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and read 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 first step.
What if my child doesn't click with their first English tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. 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 much do online English tutors 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 qualifications, so you can find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed an identity check and holds an enhanced DBS certificate. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe hands.
How can a tutor specifically help my child pass their GCSE English Language exam?
Our tutors are very experienced with the GCSE curriculum. They can help your child understand the mark scheme, improve their exam technique, practise analysing unseen texts, and master different writing styles. They'll focus on the specific skills needed to turn a potential fail into a strong pass.
My child really lacks confidence in English. How can tutoring help?
Confidence is often the biggest hurdle. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Tutors provide constant encouragement and celebrate small wins, which gradually builds your child's self-belief and helps them see that they *can* do it.
How do the online lessons work? Do I need special equipment?
It's very simple. All you need is a laptop or tablet with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Lessons happen in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents.
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 for your child's schedule and concentration span.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English, or can my child learn other skills too?
While we're proud of our academic support, we offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! So, if your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or even learn a new language for fun, we have expert tutors who can help with that too.
How do I pay for lessons?
Paying for lessons is simple and secure. Your payment details are stored safely in your account. After each lesson is completed, your card is automatically charged, and we send you a receipt. You never have to deal with cash or awkward payment conversations.
