Opening Doors for Your Child with GCSE English
GCSE English is more than just a qualification; it's a key that unlocks your child's future. It's the foundation for almost every college course, university degree, and apprenticeship in the UK. The skills they'll build – from analysing a quote from 'Macbeth' to crafting a persuasive argument – are the same communication skills they'll need to succeed in the workplace, whether that's in Yorkshire or further afield. A good grade here gives them the confidence and the credentials to take their next step.

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 apply to Wakefield College. Can a tutor help with that?
Absolutely. Many of our English tutors have experience helping students prepare for college applications. They can work with your child on their personal statement and ensure their English skills meet the entry requirements for their chosen courses.
My child goes to Outwood Academy Hemsworth. Can a tutor align with their school curriculum?
Yes, our tutors can tailor their lessons to support what your child is learning at school. During your first chat, you can let the tutor know which exam board and texts they're studying, so the lessons are perfectly aligned.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. You can also message tutors for free before booking to ask about their experience with the GCSE curriculum and make sure they're a great fit for your child's personality.
How much do online English tutors cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications, but you can easily filter your search to find someone who fits your budget. All pricing is shown clearly on each tutor's profile, so there are no hidden costs.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every tutor and all tutors must have a valid DBS check. We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
My child has lost their confidence in English. How can a tutor help?
This is very common, and it's where one-to-one tuition really helps. A tutor provides a safe, patient space for your child to ask questions they might be embarrassed to ask in class. By working at their pace, a tutor can rebuild their self-belief, one step at a time.
What if my child doesn't get on with their tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the right match for your child, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.
How does an online lesson work?
Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard for working on problems together, and a space to share documents like essays or practice papers. It’s a simple and effective way for your child to learn.
How long are the lessons and how often should they be?
Lessons are typically one hour long. Most families find a weekly session is ideal for building momentum and making steady progress, but you can arrange a schedule that works best for you and your child directly with your tutor.
Can tutoring really improve my child's GCSE grade?
Yes, it can make a real difference. The focused support helps close knowledge gaps and build exam technique. In fact, our data shows that we can help improve a child's GCSE results by up to 2 grades, giving them a much stronger foundation for the future.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects, we also offer support in a huge range of other areas. 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.
How quickly can we get started?
You can get started very quickly. Simply find a tutor you like, send them a message to arrange a time, and you could have your first lesson booked in just a few clicks. Many of our 200,000+ happy students have found the perfect tutor in less than 24 hours.
