Why Strong English Skills Open Doors for Your Child

English is much more than just another subject; it's the key to effective communication and critical thinking. Mastering skills like analysing a text, structuring a persuasive argument, or developing strong literacy for comprehension exams gives your child a huge advantage. These abilities are essential for achieving the GCSE grades needed for competitive A-Level courses and, ultimately, for securing a place on a sought-after degree at universities like Queen's University Belfast.

Khurram is incredibly helpful and supportive. He always explains things in a clear and encouraging way. I’ve made a lot of progress and feel much more confident in my understanding in english. He tailors each session to my needs and can identify areas for improvement quickly while making learning both effective and enjoyable. His dedication and commitment genuinely make a huge difference, and I’m very grateful for all the support he’s given me.

Megan G
Over the past few months, Megan has been an incredible support for my son during what has been a very challenging period for him. Her patience and encouragement has made a huge difference not only to his English and maths skills but also to his confidence and attitude towards learning. Megan has adapted each lesson to his needs, finding creative ways to help him stay engaged. It’s clear she puts a tremendous amount of thought and effort into her teaching. I am truly grateful for everything and cannot recommend Megan highly enough.

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

We're preparing for the Transfer Test for schools like St Colman's and Sacred Heart. Can a tutor help with this?

Absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in entrance exam preparation, including the Transfer Test. They can help your child build confidence and master the specific literacy and comprehension skills needed to perform their best on the day.

My child hopes to study at Queen's University Belfast. Can a tutor help them get the GCSE English grade they need?

Yes. A strong GCSE English grade is crucial for many A-Level and university paths. Our tutors can provide targeted support to help your child improve their results by up to two grades, strengthening their application for competitive courses at universities like Queen's.

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

You can read tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific goals before booking. Finding someone your child connects with is the first step to success.

Are all the tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has undergone a background check before they can start teaching. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply to ensure the highest quality and safety.

What if we don't click with the first tutor?

We know that the right fit is important. That's why we have a 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?

Our tutors set their own rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study. There are no hidden fees or long-term contracts, so you have complete flexibility.

How does online tutoring work?

Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer, a webcam, and a stable internet connection.

How can a tutor help build my child's confidence?

One-to-one tutoring creates a safe space for your child to ask questions without fear of being judged by their peers. When a tutor celebrates their small wins and patiently explains difficult concepts, it can transform how they see their own abilities.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something else?

While we offer fantastic support for core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also have tutors for a huge range of other skills. Your child could learn anything from coding and guitar to a new language.

How long is a typical tutoring session?

Most sessions are one hour long, which gives enough time to cover a topic in depth without being overwhelming. However, you can arrange different session lengths directly with your chosen tutor to fit your child's needs.

What happens in the first lesson?

The first lesson is usually about getting to know your child. The tutor will want to understand their strengths, weaknesses, and learning goals. It's a great opportunity for you and your child to see if the tutor is the right fit.

Can I find a tutor who specialises in GCSE English Literature texts?

Yes, definitely. Many of our English tutors have deep knowledge of the specific texts on the GCSE curriculum. You can mention the texts your child is studying, like 'Macbeth' or 'An Inspector Calls', when you message tutors to find the perfect match.
