More Than Just a Grade: Why English is Key for Their Next Steps
A strong pass in English isn't just a requirement; it's the foundation for your child's future success. It's the skill they'll use to analyse quotes from 'Macbeth', construct a persuasive argument, and write a compelling college application. These abilities are essential for thriving in A-Level or BTEC courses at NSCG and are highly valued at universities like Keele and Staffordshire. Strong communication skills open doors to better opportunities, whatever career path they choose.

Holly E
Holly has been tutoring my son in English GCSE for the last half term. He has found the lessons very useful, working in a logical order through the different aspects of the curriculum. Holly is friendly, approachable and encouraging.
My Son has just had his mock exam results and has moved from just hitting an exam grade boundary to being 2 points off the next grade up. We are very pleased at his progress in a short space of time.

Mamun A
My son is really improving since starting lessons with Mamun. From the start of the lesson getting almost all questions wrong to by the end completely understanding it all. Tested him a few days later and he got almost every question right without any help at all he remembered all the punctuation in all questions, shocked how much he's improved from just one lesson on it! Mamun's teaching is brilliant and it really seems to stick in my sons head. Also my son is very fussy with his ASD/ADHD and is often open about his feelings towards people, especially new people most often than not he will say he doesn't like this person because of this or that, but he said he likes his tutor and wants to do more lessons which is brilliant. Mamun is always on time, very patient and explains thoroughly, he gives brilliant feedback afterwards too. Highly recommend this tutor and I'm glad I chose him rather than someone else.

Nadiah is an AMAZING English tutor.
Nadiah is very reliable, organised and efficient, prompting and guiding my son to keep on track outside of sessions aswell. I have had feedback from school after just a few months that the quality of my sons writing has improved significantly and teachers have asked if he has been doing anything different.
My son is also developing more of an interest in the subject which has been really nice to see.

Jeremy B
After the first lesson my son announced “That was amazing Mum, you need to watch the video, he was SUCH a good teacher”. This couldn’t have been more different to previous feedback on our attempts to find an English tutor. I’m delighted that Jeremy is structured in his lessons, but also his tone is very friendly and fun! My 12 year old son has Tourettes and ADHD, and has been quite unwell. It’s also done wonders for my mental health knowing Jeremy is guiding my son through English, after seeing the videos I do not have this skill! 100% recommend him!

Michelle P
Wonderful English Tutor!
Michelle has been an incredible English tutor for our daughter Sarah. She always starts each session with a fun “mind boggle,” which Sarah absolutely loves — it sets such a positive and energising tone for the lesson. From the moment she enters the class, Michelle makes Sarah smile.
Her lessons are interesting, engaging, and thoughtfully planned. Michelle brings a fantastic mix of humour, enthusiasm, and kindness to every session, and it truly shows in Sarah’s enjoyment and progress. She has a wonderful teaching style that keeps Sarah motivated and excited to learn.
We are so grateful for Michelle’s support and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an English tutor who can make learning both effective and fun.
Thank you Michelle.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child get the grades needed for Newcastle and Stafford Colleges Group (NSCG)?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are very experienced in helping students aim for specific grades, like the 'strong pass' needed for entry into popular courses at NSCG. They can focus on the exact areas of the GCSE English curriculum your child finds tricky, helping them build the skills and confidence to secure their college place.
My child is considering Keele or Staffordshire University. Can a tutor help with that?
Yes. While our tutors primarily focus on school-level subjects, many are fantastic at helping with the skills needed for university applications. They can help your child with their personal statement, honing their writing and communication skills to make their application to universities like Keele and Staffordshire stand out.
What if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for building confidence. 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 your first session with a new tutor.
Are the tutors' backgrounds checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every single tutor on our platform has passed an ID check and has an enhanced DBS check, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend looking for a tutor with experience in the specific area your child needs help with, whether that's GCSE exam technique or building reading comprehension. You can also send messages to tutors before booking to make sure they're a good fit.
How do the online lessons actually work?
Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space for sharing documents. It’s a secure and engaging space where your child can work directly with their tutor, just as they would in person, but with all the convenience of learning from home.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own prices, so rates vary based on their experience and qualifications. You can easily filter tutors by price on our website to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts – you simply pay as you go for the lessons you book.
How can a tutor help my child if they've lost confidence in English?
This is one of the most common reasons parents come to us. A one-to-one tutor provides a safe, supportive space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By breaking down difficult topics and celebrating small wins, a tutor can help rebuild their self-belief and rediscover a love for the subject.
Can a tutor help with both English Language and English Literature GCSEs?
Yes, definitely. Most of our English tutors are experts in both the Language and Literature GCSE specifications. They can help your child switch between analysing poetry for Literature and honing their persuasive writing for Language, providing comprehensive support across the entire subject.
How long will my child need tutoring for?
This really depends on your child's individual goals. Some students have a few lessons to prepare for a specific exam, while others benefit from regular weekly support throughout the school year. It's completely flexible, and something you can discuss with your chosen tutor.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
Not at all! While we have experts in over 300 academic subjects, we also have talented tutors who can teach practical and creative skills like coding, learning a musical instrument, or even public speaking. There's a whole world of learning for your child to explore.
What happens in a typical first lesson?
The first lesson is usually about getting to know your child. The tutor will chat with them about what they enjoy, what they find difficult in English, and what they want to achieve. It’s a relaxed session designed to build a good relationship and create a plan for future lessons.
