Lucy C
Experienced English Tutor - KS3, GCSE, A level, University
Welcome to my profile. I'm an experienced online tutor, who has been teaching English Language & Literature, and Religious Studies online since 2013. I am a fully qualified teacher with a Post-Graduate Certificate in Education.While I am a passionate tutor of each of these two subjects individually, more importantly I feel that my experience in each subject contributes something to the other. For example, my knowledge of Biblical and Greek mythological references from my study of world religions is often really useful when interpreting certain texts by Shakespeare or other non-contemporary writers....

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child wants to study A-Levels at Fallibroome Academy. Can a tutor help them get the required GCSE English grade?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experts in the GCSE curriculum and understand the entry requirements for competitive sixth forms. They can work with your child on specific areas, from exam technique to essay writing, to help them secure the grades they need for their chosen A-Level courses.

We're hoping for a place at a Russell Group university like Manchester or Liverpool. Can an English tutor support this goal?

Yes, a strong foundation in English is crucial for applications to top universities. Our tutors can help your child develop the advanced analytical and communication skills that Russell Group universities look for. For older students, we also have tutors who specialise in personal statement writing and university entrance exams.

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

Finding the right personality match is so important, which is why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you feel the first tutor isn't the perfect fit for your child, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.

How do I choose the right English tutor for my child in Bollington?

You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check ratings from other parents just like you. Many tutors specialise in certain areas, like GCSE preparation or creative writing. You can also send messages to tutors before booking to make sure they're the right fit for your child's needs.

How are your tutors vetted?

We take your child's safety and the quality of their learning very seriously. We interview every tutor and they must provide a valid DBS background check. We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from a trusted expert.

My child has lost their confidence in English. How can a tutor help?

This is one of the most common reasons parents come to us. A one-to-one tutor provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By breaking down tricky topics and celebrating small wins, our tutors help rebuild that self-belief, which often has a positive impact on their schoolwork.

How much does an online English tutor cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and level of study. You'll find that tutors clearly display their hourly rates on their profiles, so you can find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or complicated contracts.

How do online lessons work?

Our online classroom is designed to be simple and effective. It has an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and a space to share documents. Your child can work through past papers, analyse texts, and get instant feedback from their tutor, all from the comfort of home.

Can a tutor help with specific parts of the English curriculum, like Shakespeare or creative writing?

Yes, absolutely. The great thing about one-to-one tutoring is that it's completely tailored. If your child is finding 'An Inspector Calls' difficult or needs help structuring their creative writing coursework, their tutor can dedicate entire lessons to that specific area until they feel confident.

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

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

Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something like coding or music theory?

We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum! You can find expert tutors for everything from learning a musical instrument like the guitar, to mastering a new language, to practical skills like coding with Python. It's a great way to support your child's hobbies and personal development.

What happens in a typical first lesson?

The first session is usually about getting to know your child. The tutor will chat with them about their goals, what they enjoy (and don't enjoy!) about English, and identify any areas where they need a bit of extra support. It's a relaxed way to build a plan for future lessons.
