Why a Strong English GCSE is Key to Your Child's Future
A good English GCSE grade is more than just a pass; it's a passport to your child's next steps. It's often a requirement for the most sought-after A-Level courses and is highly valued by top universities and employers. The skills they develop – from analysing a quote in 'Macbeth' to structuring a persuasive essay – are the building blocks for success in further education and their future career. A great grade shows they can communicate clearly, think critically, and understand the world around them.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child wants to study A-Levels in Oadby or Leicester. Can a tutor help them get the required English GCSE grade?
Absolutely. This is one of the most common reasons parents come to us. Our tutors are experts in the GCSE curriculum and can create a tailored plan to target the specific skills and knowledge your child needs to improve their grade and secure a place on their chosen A-Level course.
Can a tutor help with applications to universities like the University of Leicester or De Montfort?
Yes. While our tutors primarily focus on subject-specific knowledge, many are experienced in helping students with the entire university application process. They can provide excellent support with personal statements, helping your child to articulate their strengths and structure a compelling application.
How do I find the right English tutor for my child?
You can use our search filters to find tutors with specific experience, such as the GCSE English Language or Literature syllabus. You can read their profiles, check reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their teaching style. You can also message tutors before booking to ensure they're the perfect fit for your child.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first 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 much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications, but you can set your own budget using the search filters on our website. All pricing is shown clearly on each tutor's profile, so there are no hidden costs.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence in English?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might not ask in class. Tutors can break down tricky topics, celebrate small wins, and provide constant encouragement, which helps to build self-belief alongside subject knowledge.
Are the tutors' backgrounds checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors are background-checked and we interview every single one to ensure they meet our high standards. We only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be completely confident in your choice.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple and effective. All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam and a stable internet connection.
Is it just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we cover all academic subjects from Primary to University level, we also have amazing tutors who can teach hobbies and life skills. Whether your child wants to learn guitar, master coding in Python, or even learn a new language for fun, you can find an expert tutor for it here.
Can a tutor help with specific texts on my child's GCSE syllabus?
Yes, definitely. Our tutors are very familiar with the texts set by the main exam boards, whether it's Shakespeare, modern novels, or the poetry anthology. They can provide expert guidance on themes, characters, and essay structure to help your child feel fully prepared for their exams.
How long will my child need a tutor for?
This completely depends on your child's goals. Some students use a tutor for a short-term boost before an exam, while others benefit from weekly support throughout the school year. You can discuss your goals with your chosen tutor, and there are no long-term contracts, so you can stop at any time.
How often should my child have a lesson?
For consistent progress, most parents find that one lesson a week is ideal. This allows the tutor to build momentum and cover topics thoroughly without overwhelming your child. However, the frequency is completely up to you and can be arranged directly with your tutor.
