Why a Strong GCSE English Grade is So Important
More than just a qualification, GCSE English gives your child essential life skills. From analysing a quote in 'Macbeth' to structuring a persuasive essay, the abilities they develop are fundamental. A good grade doesn't just meet entry requirements for post-16 courses and apprenticeships; it shows employers and colleges that your child is a clear communicator and a critical thinker, setting them up for success whatever path they choose.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child get the grades needed for a course at Chesterfield College?
Yes, absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in helping students meet the specific entry requirements for college courses. They can focus on the exact topics and exam techniques your child needs to secure a Grade 5 or higher in GCSE English, giving them the best possible chance of getting a place on their desired course.
My child is at The Clowne College. Can we find a tutor familiar with their curriculum?
Yes. Many of our tutors are very familiar with the AQA, Edexcel, and other exam board specifications used by schools like The Clowne College. You can view each tutor's profile to see their experience and even message them before booking to ensure they're the right fit for your child's needs.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's easy to find the perfect match. You can use our search filters to find tutors with specific experience, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality. You can also message tutors beforehand to discuss your child's goals.
What if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect fit, which is 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 an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own prices based on their experience, typically ranging from £20 to £45 per hour. There are no hidden fees or contracts, so you can find expert, affordable support that fits your budget.
How does online tutoring actually work?
All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents and past papers. It's a secure and effective way for your child to learn from home.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors has passed an enhanced DBS check. We are also very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
One-to-one tutoring provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By working at their pace and celebrating small wins, a tutor can help them overcome learning blocks and start to believe in their own abilities.
Can we get help with specific texts, like 'An Inspector Calls' or poetry?
Definitely. Our tutors are subject specialists and can provide targeted support on specific GCSE texts, whether it's understanding characters and themes in a play, or analysing the language used in a specific poem.
How long will it take to see an improvement in my child's grades?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our personalised approach gets results. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. Consistent weekly lessons are often the best way to build momentum and see steady progress.
What happens in a typical tutoring session?
A session is tailored to your child. It might start with a quick chat about what they've covered in school that week, then move on to tackling a specific area they find difficult, like essay structure or grammar. The tutor will use the interactive whiteboard to work through examples and practice questions together.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we're experts in core academic subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also have tutors for a huge range of other skills. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or even learn a new language, we can help.
