Why a Strong English GCSE is Key to Your Child's Future

English isn't just another subject; it's the foundation for so much of your child's future success. A strong grade in English Language and Literature is often a non-negotiable entry requirement for competitive A-Level courses and respected universities like Warwick or Birmingham. The skills they develop, from analysing a tricky Shakespeare quote to structuring a persuasive essay, are essential for higher education and almost any career they choose.

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child goes to The Queen Elizabeth Academy. Can a tutor help them get the GCSE grades needed for King Edward VI College?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in helping students secure the specific GCSE grades needed for competitive post-16 providers. They can focus on the exact areas of the English curriculum your child finds challenging to build their skills and exam confidence, giving them the best possible chance of meeting the entry requirements.

We're hoping for a top university like Warwick or Birmingham. Can tutoring help with that?

Yes, it can. Securing strong GCSE and A-Level grades is the first crucial step. Our tutors can provide foundational support at GCSE level and continue to help with A-Level English, building the analytical and essay-writing skills that top universities look for in their applicants.

How do I choose 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 key to building their confidence.

What if my child doesn't click with their 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 much does an online English tutor in Atherstone cost?

Our tutors set their own rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and qualifications, so you can find an experienced, high-quality tutor that fits your family's budget.

Are all the tutors background-checked?

Yes. Your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors undergoes a thorough vetting process, including identity and background checks, before they can join our platform. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the best.

How can tutoring help my child feel more confident?

Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might be afraid to ask in class. As their tutor helps them grasp difficult topics, their self-belief grows, which has a positive impact on all their studies.

How do the online lessons actually work?

Our online classroom has everything your child needs for an engaging lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. All they need is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection. It's simple, secure, and effective.

Do you only offer academic subjects like English?

While we have expert tutors for all core academic subjects from Primary to A-Level, we also offer support in a wide range of other areas. You can find tutors for music lessons like guitar, languages, and even practical skills like coding.

Can a tutor help with a specific part of the English curriculum?

Yes, absolutely. That's one of the main benefits of one-to-one tutoring. If your child needs to focus specifically on poetry analysis, creative writing, or Shakespeare, their tutor can dedicate entire lessons to mastering that area.

How quickly can we expect to see results?

Every child learns at their own pace, but our data shows that 90% of students improve by at least one grade. The biggest immediate change parents often notice is a boost in their child's confidence and a more positive attitude towards their English studies.

What happens if we need to reschedule a lesson?

Life happens, and we understand that. You can easily manage your lesson schedule through your Tutorful account. We just ask that you give your tutor at least 24 hours' notice if you need to cancel or rearrange a session.
