Why Strong English Grades Open Doors for Your Child

Strong GCSE English grades are more than just a requirement; they are a key that unlocks your child's future choices. The skills they develop, from critically analysing a quote in *Macbeth* to crafting a persuasive argument for their English Language paper, are essential for success at A-Level and beyond. These abilities are exactly what top colleges and universities look for, giving your child a real advantage. It’s why we’re so proud that 90% of our students improve by at least one grade, helping them secure those crucial opportunities.

Abdul M
Passionate and Experienced English Tutor
Since the age of 17, I have been teaching Maths, English and the Sciences to members of my family as well as to students of various ages and abilities. By having a high variance in my student's abilities I am able to teach complex concepts in simple terms, this allows for the student to no longer feel anxious on a topic matter. I am offering to teach from primary all the way up to A level in various subjects. My strongest topics are the sciences and mathematics but I am also more than capable to teach English up to KS3. Furthermore, I have a vast amount of experience teaching younger children in...

Paul M
Excellent English tutor
Maths is pure hell for some. It was for me as a young boy and I thought that because I didn't get the answers right it meant that I was no good.I didn't understand numbers, the vocabulary used for the abstract nature of maths and it left me feeling bereft of confidence. I am glad nowadays maths is taught in a more simpler fashion and I am proof that if maths is accessible in the right way, is fun and more importantly the fear factor is removed then anyone can prosper. That is how I like to approach maths and I feel that it is a fantastic way to enjoy, and dare I say it... love the subject.I am...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is at Colonel Frank Seely Academy. Can a tutor help them aim for the top grades needed for Bilborough College?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors are highly experienced in helping students bridge the gap between a predicted pass and the high grades needed for competitive sixth forms. They can focus on exam technique and deeper subject knowledge to help your child's application stand out.

Are the tutors familiar with the entry requirements for competitive local sixth forms and universities?

Yes, our tutors are experienced with the UK education system and understand the standards required for A-Level study and university entry. You can discuss your child's specific goals with potential tutors to find someone with the right experience to support them.

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 to discuss your child's needs before booking. Finding someone your child connects with is the most important step.

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

We know that the right fit is crucial for 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 can a tutor help my child feel more confident in English?

Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one session, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might not ask in class. By working at their own pace and celebrating small wins, a tutor can help them build self-belief that extends beyond the subject itself.

How much does an online English tutor cost?

Our tutors set their own rates, so prices vary depending on their experience and qualifications. You can easily filter tutors by price on our search page to find an expert who fits your family's budget.

Are your tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All of our tutors have been identity and background checked before they can teach on our platform. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply.

How does online tutoring work?

It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing tools, making it easy for your child to work collaboratively with their tutor from the comfort of home.

Can we get help with specific GCSE English texts like 'An Inspector Calls'?

Of course. Tutors can provide targeted support for any specific texts, poems, or plays your child is studying for their GCSEs. This is a great way to deepen their understanding of themes, characters, and context.

What if our family schedule is really busy?

That's one of the main benefits of online tutoring. With tutors available from early morning to late evening, seven days a week, you can find a time that fits perfectly around school, clubs, and other commitments.

Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or guitar?

We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! Beyond core academic subjects, your child can learn a musical instrument like the guitar, a new language, or even practical skills like coding and public speaking. There's something for every interest.

How quickly can we see an improvement?

Every child learns at their own pace, but our data shows that 90% of students improve by at least one grade. The personalised attention of one-to-one tutoring often helps students make progress more quickly than they would in a classroom setting.
