Why a Strong GCSE in English is a Gateway to Your Child's Future

English isn't just about passing an exam; it's the foundation for so much more. The skills your child develops—from carefully analysing quotes in 'Macbeth' to crafting a persuasive argument in an essay—are exactly what top colleges and employers look for. A strong grade in GCSE English doesn't just meet entry requirements for courses at Cheshire College; it builds the communication and critical thinking skills they'll need for A-Levels, apprenticeships, and respected universities like Keele or Chester.

Experienced English tutor
Hi, I’m John, I’m 23 and I’m currently studying law at Demontfort University. I have been tutoring now for almost two years mainly in maths from KS1 up to GCSE and have developed the knowledge and skills to be able to tailor my lessons to best suit the student as no one style will work best for everyone. For example, some students may benefit from shorter lessons, some may benefit from taking the lessons at a much slower pace, some may prefer to just dive straight into questions and many other factors that we will be able to identify together and use to customise the lesson to best suit the stude...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child wants to study at Cheshire College South & West. Can a tutor help them secure the necessary English grade?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors are very experienced in helping students achieve the specific grades needed for college or sixth form entry. They can focus on the GCSE English curriculum, helping your child build the skills and exam technique needed to secure a Grade 5 or higher, opening up the best post-16 options for them.

Are the tutors actually based in Crewe?

Because all our tutoring is online, you have access to the best English tutors from across the UK, not just those in the Crewe area. This gives you a much wider choice of specialists, ensuring you can find the perfect match for your child's specific needs and learning style.

Are the tutors qualified to help with GCSE English exams?

Yes, many of our tutors are GCSE English specialists, including experienced teachers and examiners. They have an in-depth understanding of the AQA, Edexcel, and other exam board specifications and can provide targeted support. We can help boost your child's GCSE grade by up to two levels.

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

We want to make sure it's the right fit. We have a first lesson guarantee, so if you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

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

You can read detailed profiles for each tutor, which include their experience, qualifications, teaching style, and reviews from other parents. Many also have introductory videos. We recommend shortlisting a few and sending them a message to see who feels like the best fit for your child.

How much does an online English tutor cost?

Our English tutors set their own hourly rates, so prices vary depending on their experience. You can easily filter tutors by price on our website to find someone who fits your budget, with no hidden fees or contracts.

How can a tutor help my child feel more confident in English?

One-to-one attention from a supportive tutor can do wonders for a child's confidence. When they have a safe space to ask questions without fear of being judged, they start to believe in their own abilities. Our tutors are experts at breaking down tricky topics and celebrating small wins, which helps build momentum and self-esteem.

What happens in an online tutoring session?

Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a shared whiteboard, video chat, and document sharing. A tutor might work through a past paper with your child, help them plan an essay, or break down a difficult poem. It's interactive, engaging, and tailored to what your child needs that day.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something like creative writing or public speaking?

We offer a huge range of subjects and skills beyond the school curriculum! Alongside core subjects like English, many of our tutors offer lessons in everything from learning a musical instrument like the guitar to practical skills like coding or even public speaking.

How do I know if my child is making progress?

Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's progress. You can also message them at any time to ask questions or discuss how things are going. Seeing your child's growing confidence and improved understanding in their schoolwork is often the clearest sign of progress.

What technology do we need for online lessons?

All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is easy to use and works directly in your web browser, so there's no complicated software to install.

How long does a typical tutoring session last?

The standard session length is one hour, which usually gives enough time to cover a topic in detail without your child losing focus. However, you can discuss different session lengths with your tutor to find what works best for your family.
