Why a Strong English GCSE is Key to Your Child's Future
English is more than just another subject on the timetable; it's the foundation for almost every future path. Strong communication, reading, and writing skills are essential for success in further education and the workplace. A good GCSE grade doesn't just meet the entry requirements for A-Levels or BTECs; it gives your child the confidence to express their ideas clearly, whether they're writing a college application, a CV, or a report in their future job. It’s a qualification that truly opens doors.

Matthew has been teaching my son since September and he absolutely enjoys the lessons. He explains writing in a way my son can understand, and we’ve already seen a boost in his confidence.
Really friendly, patient, and supportive — we’re very happy with the progress so far. Highly recommend!

Holly E
Holly has been tutoring my son in English GCSE for the last half term. He has found the lessons very useful, working in a logical order through the different aspects of the curriculum. Holly is friendly, approachable and encouraging.
My Son has just had his mock exam results and has moved from just hitting an exam grade boundary to being 2 points off the next grade up. We are very pleased at his progress in a short space of time.

Mamun A
My son is really improving since starting lessons with Mamun. From the start of the lesson getting almost all questions wrong to by the end completely understanding it all. Tested him a few days later and he got almost every question right without any help at all he remembered all the punctuation in all questions, shocked how much he's improved from just one lesson on it! Mamun's teaching is brilliant and it really seems to stick in my sons head. Also my son is very fussy with his ASD/ADHD and is often open about his feelings towards people, especially new people most often than not he will say he doesn't like this person because of this or that, but he said he likes his tutor and wants to do more lessons which is brilliant. Mamun is always on time, very patient and explains thoroughly, he gives brilliant feedback afterwards too. Highly recommend this tutor and I'm glad I chose him rather than someone else.

Nadiah K
Nadiah is an AMAZING English tutor.
Nadiah is very reliable, organised and efficient, prompting and guiding my son to keep on track outside of sessions aswell. I have had feedback from school after just a few months that the quality of my sons writing has improved significantly and teachers have asked if he has been doing anything different.
My son is also developing more of an interest in the subject which has been really nice to see.

Jeremy B
After the first lesson my son announced “That was amazing Mum, you need to watch the video, he was SUCH a good teacher”. This couldn’t have been more different to previous feedback on our attempts to find an English tutor. I’m delighted that Jeremy is structured in his lessons, but also his tone is very friendly and fun! My 12 year old son has Tourettes and ADHD, and has been quite unwell. It’s also done wonders for my mental health knowing Jeremy is guiding my son through English, after seeing the videos I do not have this skill! 100% recommend him!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child goes to Ormiston Park Academy. Can a tutor help them specifically with their English GCSE?
Absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in the national curriculum and can tailor their lessons to the specific exam board and syllabus your child is following at Ormiston Park Academy. They can help your child focus on the exact skills needed to succeed in their exams.
Can an English tutor help my child prepare for courses at South Essex College or USP College?
Yes. A key part of preparing for further education is securing the required GCSE grades. Our tutors can help your child build the knowledge and confidence needed to aim for a Grade 5 or higher in English, strengthening their applications for A-Level or BTEC courses at local colleges.
How do I find the right English tutor for my child in Aveley?
It's simple. You can use our search filters to find tutors with the right experience, from GCSE specialists to A-Level experts. You can watch their introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and even message them for free to make sure they're the perfect fit before booking.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right relationship is key to learning. 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 online English tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the level of study, but typically range from £25 to £45 per hour. Tutors set their own rates, and you can easily filter by price to find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees.
How can a tutor help build my child's confidence?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions without fear of being judged. Tutors can break down difficult topics into manageable steps, celebrating small wins along the way and showing your child what they're truly capable of.
Are your tutors safe and background-checked?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is identity and background checked before they can join our platform. We also interview every applicant and are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How do the online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. All they need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. It's simple and effective.
Can tutoring really help my child improve their grade?
Yes, it can make a real difference. The personalised attention of a one-to-one tutor helps target the exact areas where your child needs support. In fact, 90% of students who use Tutorful improve by at least one grade.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
While we have expert tutors for all core academic subjects from primary school to university, we also offer support in a wide range of other areas. You can find tutors for learning a musical instrument like the guitar, practical skills like coding, or even a new language.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
Most tutoring sessions are one hour long. This gives enough time to dive into a topic properly without your child losing focus. However, you can discuss different session lengths with your chosen tutor to find what works best.
What happens in the first lesson?
The first lesson is usually a chance for the tutor to get to know your child. They'll chat about their goals, what they find difficult, and how they like to learn. It's a relaxed session designed to build a good relationship and create a plan for future lessons.
