Why a Strong GCSE in English is Key to Your Child's Future
English isn't just another subject; it's the foundation for success across all their studies and future ambitions. The ability to analyse a complex text in 'An Inspector Calls' or structure a persuasive argument is vital for A-Levels, apprenticeships, and university courses. A strong GCSE in English is often a key requirement for the most competitive courses at colleges like Strode, acting as the stepping stone your child needs to access top universities like Bristol or Bath and pursue the career they dream of.

How Our Tutors Help Your Child Thrive in English
We know you want the best for your child, which is why we're so selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Our tutors are more than just subject experts; they're mentors who take the time to understand your child's unique learning style and where they need the most help. By building a real connection, they create a supportive space where your child feels comfortable asking questions and tackling tricky topics. Every one-to-one lesson is planned around your child's specific needs. If they're struggling with poetry analysis for their GCSEs, the entire session can be dedicated to that. This focused attention is why 90% of students improve by at least one grade with us. For GCSEs, that support can mean an improvement of up to two grades, turning a predicted pass into a grade that secures their college place. Finding the right support shouldn't add to your family's stress. With online tuition, you can connect with the perfect English tutor from anywhere in the UK, without worrying about travel. Lessons are easy to schedule around school, clubs, and family life, giving your child the expert help they need, right from the comfort of your home in Glastonbury.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is aiming for Strode College. Can a tutor help them get the GCSE English grade they need?
Absolutely. Many of our English tutors are very experienced in helping students meet the specific entry requirements for popular colleges. They can focus on the exact areas of the GCSE curriculum your child needs to strengthen, building their skills and confidence to help them secure the grades needed for their chosen A-Level courses.
We want to give our child the best chance of getting into a top university like Bristol or Bath. Can tutoring help with that?
Yes. Strong A-Level grades begin with solid GCSE foundations. An English tutor can help your child master the core skills of analysis, critical thinking, and essay writing that are essential for success at A-Level and are highly valued by competitive universities.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's easy to find the perfect match on our platform. You can read reviews from other parents, watch tutors' introductory videos to get a feel for their personality, and message them beforehand to discuss your child's goals. It's all about finding someone your child will connect with.
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.
How much does an English tutor in Glastonbury cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates based on their experience. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, so you can find an experienced, background-checked tutor that fits your family's budget. There are no hidden fees.
How do you make sure the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and must pass a rigorous application process. We interview every tutor and verify their ID and qualifications. We only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How do the online lessons work?
Our online classroom is designed to be simple and effective. It has video chat, an interactive whiteboard for brainstorming ideas or analysing texts together, and a space to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and an internet connection.
Can tutoring help with my child's confidence, not just their grades?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits parents tell us about. In a one-to-one setting, your child gets the focused attention they might miss in a busy classroom. When a tutor celebrates their progress and helps them overcome challenges, their self-belief can grow enormously.
What kind of results can we really expect?
We're proud that 90% of students who use Tutorful improve by at least one grade. For students studying for their GCSEs, our support can help improve their final results by up to two grades, which can make a huge difference to their future options.
We live in Glastonbury. Are the tutors local?
Because our lessons are online, you can connect with the very best English tutors from across the UK, not just those who live locally. This gives you a much wider choice of specialists, ensuring you find the perfect tutor for your child's specific needs and goals.
How often should my child have a lesson?
It's completely flexible and up to you. Most parents find that a regular weekly lesson provides the consistency needed to build momentum and see real progress, especially in the run-up to exams like the GCSEs.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like Maths, English, and Science, we also offer support in a huge range of other areas. Your child can learn a musical instrument like the guitar, a new language, or even practical skills like coding.
