Why a GCSE English Pass is So Important for Their Next Steps

A strong pass in GCSE English isn't just another qualification; it's the foundation for almost every path your child might choose. It's the difference between being able to analyse a quote from 'Macbeth' with confidence and clearly articulating their ideas in a college application or a future job interview. This core skill opens up opportunities for A-Levels, apprenticeships, and university courses, giving them the freedom to pursue their ambitions.

Focused English Support to Help Your Child Succeed

Finding the right person to support your child is everything. That’s why we carefully select the best, background-checked tutors from across the UK – in fact, we only accept 1 in 8 who apply. A great tutor takes the time to understand how your child learns, building a rapport that helps them feel comfortable asking questions and tackling tricky topics they might shy away from in a busy classroom. Every child is different, so every lesson should be too. Instead of a one-size-fits-all approach, your child’s tutor will create sessions tailored specifically to their needs. Whether it's mastering essay structure for 'An Inspector Calls' or getting to grips with poetry analysis, each lesson is designed to close knowledge gaps and build a solid understanding, step by step. This focused approach can help improve your child's GCSE results by up to 2 grades. We know family life is busy. Our online platform makes finding support simple and stress-free. You can browse tutors, read reviews from other parents, and schedule lessons at times that work for you and your child – all from the comfort of your home in Ebbw Vale. No travel, no fuss, just high-quality English support when you need it.

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 hopes to study at the Blaenau Gwent Learning Zone. Can a tutor help them secure the GCSE English grade they need?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors are very experienced in helping students prepare for their GCSEs with a specific goal in mind. They can focus on the exact areas of the curriculum your child finds challenging to help them build the knowledge and confidence needed to secure that vital pass and progress to their chosen A-Level or vocational course.

We live in Ebbw Vale, are the tutors local?

Our tutors are based all across the UK and connect with your child online. This gives you a much wider choice of specialists than you would find locally, so you can find the perfect English expert for your child's specific needs, no matter where you live.

What if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?

Finding the right fit is the most important thing, which is why we have our first lesson guarantee. 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.

My child has lost all their confidence in English. Can a tutor help with that?

Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor creates a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Celebrating small wins and building on their strengths is key to rebuilding their self-belief.

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

You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read their bios, and check reviews from other parents just like you. Many parents find it helpful to send a message to a few tutors first to discuss their child's goals before booking a session.

How much does an online English tutor cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.

How does online tutoring actually work?

It's simple! All lessons take place in our specially designed online classroom. It has an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and a space to share documents, making it easy for your child and their tutor to work together in real-time.

How long are the tutoring sessions and how often should they be?

Lessons are typically an hour long. Most families find a weekly session works best to build momentum and keep learning consistent, but you can arrange a schedule that suits your child's needs directly with your chosen tutor.

Are the tutors qualified to teach the curriculum my child is studying?

Yes. Our tutors are experts in their subjects and are familiar with the specific requirements of exam boards like WJEC, AQA, and Edexcel. You can see their experience and qualifications on their profile and discuss your child's specific curriculum with them.

How can I track my child's progress?

The best way is to have an open conversation with your child's tutor. They can provide regular feedback on which areas your child is improving in and what they plan to work on next. Many parents find this partnership incredibly reassuring.

Is online tutoring as effective as in-person?

We believe it's even better! Online tutoring gives your child access to the best tutors across the country, not just those who live nearby. Plus, with interactive tools and the ability to re-watch lessons, it provides a flexible and powerful learning experience. Our 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 reviews shows how much parents and students love it.

Do you only offer help with school subjects like English?

Not at all! While we have experts for core subjects from Primary up to A-Level, we also have talented tutors who can teach practical and creative skills like learning to play the guitar, coding in Python, or even public speaking.
