Why Strong English Grades Open Doors for Your Child
English isn't just another subject; it's a vital qualification that underpins almost everything your child will go on to do. The skills they build – from analysing a complex quote in 'Macbeth' to crafting a persuasive argument for their English Language exam – are exactly what top sixth forms and competitive universities like Leicester and Loughborough look for. Mastering English gives your child the communication and critical thinking skills they need to succeed, not just in their A-Levels but in their future career too.

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 Robert Smyth Academy. Can a tutor help them achieve the GCSE English grades they need?
Absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in helping students aim for top grades (7-9). They can focus specifically on the areas of the English curriculum your child finds challenging, helping them build the skills and confidence needed to meet the entry requirements for competitive sixth forms.
We're thinking about universities like Leicester or Loughborough. How can an English tutor help now?
A strong performance at GCSE is the first step towards a successful university application. A tutor can help your child master the core analytical and communication skills that are not only essential for A-Levels but are also highly valued by top universities.
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. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific goals before booking. It's all about finding a great personality match for your child.
What if my child doesn't click with their 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.
My child has lost confidence in English. Can a tutor help?
Yes, this is one of the most common reasons parents come to us. In a one-to-one setting, tutors can create a safe, encouraging space for your child to ask questions without fear of judgement. Rebuilding that self-belief is often the key to unlocking their academic progress.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors undergoes a thorough background check and identity verification before they can join our platform.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on experience and level, so you can find an excellent tutor who fits your family's budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
What happens in a typical online English lesson?
Lessons take place in our interactive online classroom, which features a whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing. A tutor might work through past papers, help plan an essay, or break down difficult texts like Shakespeare, all tailored to what your child needs most that day.
How do I know if my child is making progress?
Our tutors provide regular feedback on your child's development. You'll also see their growing confidence and, over time, improvements in their schoolwork and test results. You can message your tutor at any time to discuss how things are going.
What technology do we need for online tutoring?
It's simple. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is browser-based, so there's no software to download.
How long are lessons and how often should we have them?
Lessons are typically one hour long. Most families find that a weekly session works best to build momentum and reinforce learning, but the frequency is completely flexible and up to you and your tutor to agree on.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we're experts in core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also have brilliant tutors for a huge range of other skills. Your child could learn anything from coding and Python to playing the guitar or speaking Spanish.
