Why a Strong English GCSE is Key for Their Future
English is more than just another GCSE; it's the foundation for success in A-Levels and a critical part of a strong university application. Whether your child is aiming for the University of Hull, Lincoln, or beyond, the ability to analyse complex texts like 'An Inspector Calls' or craft a compelling argument is a skill that will serve them for life. Strong English grades show universities and employers that your child is a clear, confident communicator.

Michael B
Friendly, enthusiastic English Tutor
I absolutely love what I do, and channel that enthusiasm within each of my lessons. I believe a child can very easily see if a teacher is passionate about what they are teaching, which is why I believe only those who absolutely love their profession should teach. I want to provide the most engaging and challenging lesson for myself, because I hold very high standards for my quality of work, but more importantly, for the child. I want a child to leave each session safe in the knowledge that they have learnt something new that day.I like to approach each session differently, learning what interests...

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is hoping to apply to Franklin College. Can a tutor help them get the English grade they need?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in helping students secure the higher grades needed for competitive sixth forms. They can focus on the specific skills and exam techniques required to help your child stand out and feel confident in their application.
We're aiming for a strong university application to somewhere like Hull or Lincoln. How does English tutoring help?
A strong English grade is fundamental for almost any course. Tutors help develop the critical thinking, essay writing, and analytical skills that admissions teams at universities like Hull and Lincoln look for. This not only helps with their A-Levels but also prepares them for the demands of degree-level study.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message tutors for free to find the perfect match for your child's personality and learning style. It's all about finding someone your child will connect with.
What if my child doesn't click with their first English 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.
How can I be sure the tutors are qualified and safe?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and personally interviewed by our team. We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
How much does English tutoring cost in Grimsby?
Our tutors set their own rates, so prices vary depending on their experience. You can easily filter tutors by price to find an expert who fits your budget, with no hidden fees or contracts.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our online classroom, which has features like a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
How soon will we see an improvement in my child's results?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our focused, one-to-one approach gets results. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one whole grade. The biggest change many parents notice first, though, is a boost in their child's confidence.
My child finds English boring. How can a tutor make it interesting?
A great tutor can bring any subject to life! By connecting texts and topics to your child's own interests and using engaging teaching methods, they can help your child discover a genuine enjoyment for English.
Can tutoring help with my child's confidence?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits we see. A tutor provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without fear of judgement. This personal support often leads to a significant boost in self-esteem that helps in all their subjects.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
We offer tutoring for a huge range of skills beyond the classroom. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or even learn a new language, we have expert tutors who can help them explore their passions.
What happens in a typical one-to-one English lesson?
Every lesson is tailored to your child. A session might focus on planning and writing a practice essay, analysing a difficult poem, working through past paper questions, or simply going over homework they're struggling with. The tutor will focus on whatever your child needs most.
