Why a Strong English GCSE is Key for Their Next Step
A good grade in English isn't just a requirement; it's a skill for life that opens doors to college, university, and future careers. Strong English skills give your child the ability to analyse complex texts, from Shakespeare to unseen poetry, and to build clear, persuasive arguments in their own writing. These are the exact skills that top sixth forms and universities look for, giving your child the best possible chance to follow the path they choose.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child hopes to apply to Peter Symonds College. Can a tutor help them achieve the necessary English GCSE grades?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experts in the GCSE curriculum and have experience helping students secure the high grades needed for competitive sixth forms. They can focus on exam technique, coursework, and strengthening specific areas of the English syllabus to give your child the best possible chance of success.
My child attends Horndean Technology College. Can a tutor work alongside their school curriculum?
Yes, our tutors are brilliant at complementing what your child is learning at school. During your first session, the tutor will chat with you and your child about their current topics, school reports, and any specific areas of concern to ensure their lessons are perfectly aligned and supportive.
How do I pick the right English tutor for my child?
You can view detailed profiles for each tutor, which include their experience, qualifications, teaching style, and reviews from other parents. We recommend watching their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality and messaging a few to find the perfect match for your child.
What 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.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform undergoes a thorough vetting process, including an identity and background check, before they can start teaching.
How much does online English tutoring cost in Denmead?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and level of demand, so you can find an experienced, high-quality tutor that fits your family's budget.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
Sometimes, a lack of confidence is the biggest barrier to progress. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions without fear of judgement. Our tutors are skilled at celebrating small wins and breaking down big challenges, which helps build self-esteem lesson by lesson.
How does the online classroom work?
Our online classroom is custom-built for tutoring. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard for drawing and sharing notes, and a document editor for working on essays or past papers together. All sessions are also recorded so your child can review them anytime.
Can a tutor help with specific GCSE texts like 'An Inspector Calls'?
Yes, definitely. Our English tutors are very familiar with the key texts across all exam boards. They can help your child dive deeper into plot, themes, and character analysis for any set text, whether it's a play, novel, or poetry anthology.
Do you only offer tutoring for school subjects?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also offer support in a huge range of other areas. You can find tutors for learning a musical instrument like the guitar, a new language, or even practical skills like coding.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
Most sessions are one hour long, which we find is the perfect amount of time to cover a topic in detail without losing focus. However, you can arrange different session lengths directly with your chosen tutor to fit your child's needs and your family's schedule.
How quickly can my child start their lessons?
Very quickly! Many of our tutors can offer a lesson within a few days. Once you've found a tutor you like, you can check their availability on their profile and book your first session straight away.
