Why a Strong GCSE English Grade Opens Doors for Your Child
A strong pass in GCSE English isn't just another qualification; it's a key that unlocks your child's future. It's often a requirement for sixth form or college courses at places like NSCG, and it's essential for university applications. More than that, the skills they build – clear communication, critical thinking, and understanding different perspectives – are exactly what employers look for. It gives your child the foundation they need to succeed, whatever path they choose.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is at Biddulph High School. Can a tutor help them with the specific GCSE English curriculum they follow?
Absolutely. Our tutors are experienced with all major exam boards and can tailor their lessons to the specific texts, topics, and assessment criteria your child is working with at Biddulph High School. Just mention it to them in your first message.
We're hoping my child can study at Keele or Staffordshire University. Can a tutor help with that?
Yes, many of our English tutors have experience helping students with their UCAS applications. They can help your child structure a compelling personal statement and develop the advanced essay-writing skills needed for university-level study.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
It's really important that your child feels comfortable with their tutor. 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 do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch tutors' introduction videos, read reviews from other parents, and compare their experience and qualifications on their profiles. You can also send a message to a few tutors to see who feels like the best fit before you book a lesson.
How can I be sure the tutors are safe?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is interviewed and has their ID and qualifications checked. We also carry out background checks and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident your child is in safe hands.
How do online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It’s a simple and effective way for them to learn from the comfort of your home.
How much does online English tutoring cost?
Our tutors set their own prices, which typically range from £25 to £50 per hour depending on their experience. You can easily filter by price on our search page to find a great tutor that fits your family's budget.
How can a tutor help if my child lacks confidence in English?
One-to-one tutoring is a fantastic confidence booster. It provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. A great tutor celebrates small wins and helps your child see their own progress, which makes a huge difference.
What results can we really expect?
While every child is different, we know our approach works. 90% of students who use Tutorful improve by at least one academic grade. For GCSEs specifically, our tutors can help students improve their final results by up to two grades.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one hour-long session per week works best, especially in the run-up to exams. However, it's completely flexible. You can discuss your child's goals with your chosen tutor and agree on a schedule that works for you.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
Not at all! While we have experts in all core subjects from Primary to A-Level, we also have talented tutors who can teach practical skills like coding and Python, musical instruments like guitar and piano, or even new languages.
How do I pay for lessons?
Paying is simple and secure. Once a lesson is complete, your payment is automatically processed using the card details you add to your account. You don't need to worry about paying the tutor directly or handling cash.
