English isn't just another subject; it's a fundamental skill for life. A good grade at GCSE is often a non-negotiable requirement for further education and careers. It’s what colleges like East Norfolk Sixth Form look for, and it builds the communication skills needed for a successful application to a university like UEA. Whether your child is analysing a poem by Carol Ann Duffy or structuring a persuasive essay, they're developing the critical thinking and clarity that employers and universities value most.

Ben H
Engaging English tutor
I firmly believe that teaching is a two-way process. Whether I'm in a classroom or online, I will create a dialogue so the pupils/tutees feel involved in the process and are able to question, inquire and verbalise what we are learning. Very few people learn by being told something once, so my tutoring sessions are generally about discovery, mastery and learning side by side to answer the big questions along with my years of expertise providing the content.I have worked in education for 12 years in all sorts of settings, with a huge range of pupils. My track record is impressive and I firmly believe...

Josh L
Josh has been tutoring my son for several weeks now. When asking my son what he thought of the sessions she shared that the lessons were varied and he makes it interesting and fun, ( My Son is in year 10 - age 14) We were looking for a tutor to help my son with his English as he had a difficult year last year with his teacher and it became a dread and a stress. Having Josh tutoring him has given him more confidence in the subject. He is keen to have the lesson and always comes down afterwards and shares something good about it. He seems to be progressing well at school and I know these sessions can only be helping with that.

Grace B
My daughter worked with Grace as she wanted to re-take her English Language GCSE to improve her grade. My daughter thought Grace was a fantastic teacher. After her first lesson she said she had learnt more in an hour with her than she had in her previous two years at school! She has a lovely friendly manner and put my daughter at ease straight away. She also puts a lot into the lessons through preparation, marking and generally guiding the learning where it's needed most. As an examiner herself she also has a clear understanding of what students need to work on to succeed. Couldn't recommend her highly enough and whether or not my daughter does improve her grade, I know that the lessons were worthwhile. Thank you Grace!

John M
John has been nothing short of a miracle worker with our Year 9 son. In a matter of a few lessons his confidence in English has really grown. He was previously really disengaged with English & it was a real effort to get him to spend any amount of time on it. Now with John’s encouragement, he actually shows me his English homework & wants to improve, work at it. Highly recommend

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child wants to go to East Norfolk Sixth Form College. Can a tutor help them get the required GCSE English grade?
Absolutely. This is one of the most common goals we help with. Our tutors are experienced in the GCSE curriculum and can focus specifically on the skills and knowledge needed to secure a Grade 5 or above, giving your child the best chance of meeting the entry requirements for their chosen A-Levels.
Can an English tutor help my child with their personal statement for applying to universities like UEA?
Yes, many of our English tutors have experience helping students craft compelling personal statements. They can help your child structure their ideas, refine their writing, and present themselves in the best possible light for their university applications.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check their qualifications and experience. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking. It's all about finding someone your child clicks with.
What if we don't click with the first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. 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 the tutors safe and background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is identity and background checked before they can join Tutorful. We're very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
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 can a tutor help my child feel more confident in English?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Tutors celebrate small wins and break down difficult topics, like analysing poetry, into manageable steps, which builds self-belief over time.
How do the online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs: video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It's a simple and effective way to learn from the comfort of your home.
Can we have lessons at weekends or in the evenings?
Of course. Our tutors set their own availability, and many offer lessons during evenings and weekends to fit around school and other family commitments. You can filter your search to find tutors available at times that work for you.
How long will it take to see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our tailored approach is designed for progress. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence after just a few sessions, and 90% of our students improve their academic results by at least one grade.
What happens in a typical one-to-one English lesson?
A lesson is tailored to your child's needs. It might start with a review of their schoolwork, move on to tackling a specific area they find difficult, like essay structure or grammar, and end with planning for their next piece of homework. It's all focused on them.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can I find a tutor for things like music or coding?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum! You can find expert tutors for everything from learning the guitar and coding in Python to spoken languages and music theory.
