Why a Strong GCSE in English Opens Doors for Your Child
English isn't just another subject; it's a foundation for success. Strong analytical and communication skills are essential for almost every A-Level and university course. Whether it's crafting a compelling essay on 'An Inspector Calls' or confidently analysing a tricky piece of unseen poetry, the abilities your child develops in English will be crucial for their applications to competitive universities and for their future career. It gives them the tools to think critically and express themselves clearly – skills for life.

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 goes to Stanwell School. Can a tutor help them meet the entry requirements for the sixth form?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students aim for specific academic goals. They can work with your child to focus on the key areas of the GCSE English curriculum needed to secure the high grades required for competitive sixth form entry, building both their skills and their confidence.
We're aiming for a Russell Group university like Cardiff or Bristol. Can an English tutor help with this?
Yes, they can. A strong grade in English is often a key requirement. Tutors can help your child develop the deep analytical and essay-writing skills that top universities look for. For older students, tutors can also provide invaluable support with personal statement writing, helping them to stand out.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
The best way is to read through the tutor profiles. You can see their experience, qualifications, and read reviews from other parents just like you. Many tutors also offer a free introductory chat, which is a great way for you and your child to meet them before booking a lesson.
Are the tutors' backgrounds checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on Tutorful has passed an ID check and has an up-to-date DBS check. We are very selective, and only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply is accepted onto the platform.
What if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We know that finding the right personality match is key. 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 do online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Each tutor sets their own hourly rate, which you can see clearly on their profile. This transparency means you can find an experienced, high-quality tutor that fits your family's budget.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident in English?
One-to-one lessons provide a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Tutors can break down difficult topics, celebrate small wins, and adapt their teaching style, which helps build self-esteem and a positive attitude towards learning.
Can a tutor help with specific exam boards, like WJEC?
Yes. Many of our tutors have extensive experience with specific exam boards, including WJEC, AQA, and Edexcel. You can check their profiles for details or use the filters when you search to find a tutor with the right expertise for your child's exams.
How long are the lessons and how often should we have them?
Lessons are typically an hour long. Most families find that a regular weekly session works best to build momentum and see consistent progress, but the frequency is completely up to you. You can discuss what's best for your child directly with your chosen tutor.
Is it just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like English and Maths, we also have experts in a huge range of other areas. Your child could learn anything from coding or a new language to playing the guitar or chess. There's something for every interest.
How quickly can we find a tutor and start lessons?
You can get started very quickly. Many tutors respond to messages within a few hours. Once you've had a chat and found the right person, you can book your first lesson for a time that suits you, often within the same week.
