Why a Top GCSE English Grade is So Important in Leicestershire
A strong English qualification is more than just a line on a certificate; it's a vital tool for your child's future. The ability to analyse a complex text like 'Macbeth' or construct a persuasive argument in an essay are the exact skills needed for demanding A-Levels and strong university applications. It shows admissions tutors that your child is a clear, critical thinker, ready for the next step in their education and future career.

Give Your Child the Personalised English Support They Need to Succeed
The right tutor does more than just teach; they build a connection. By understanding your child's unique learning style and where they need the most help, they can create a supportive space for them to ask questions and grow in confidence. We take the stress out of finding that perfect match by carefully selecting the UK's best tutors—only 1 in 8 who apply are accepted—and ensuring every one is background-checked, so you can have complete peace of mind.
Every online lesson is built entirely around your child. If they need to master the poetry anthology for their exam or fine-tune their analytical writing to turn a grade 6 into a grade 8, the session will focus on exactly that. This tailored approach is why 90% of students improve by at least one grade with us. In fact, for GCSEs, we can help boost results by up to two grades, making a real difference to their future options.
Finding time for extra support shouldn't be another stress. With online tutoring, there are no extra journeys across Leicestershire after school. You can find a trusted tutor who fits around your family's schedule, making it easy and convenient to get your child the support they need. Join over 200,000 happy students and see what a difference one-to-one learning can make.

Experienced English tutor
Hi, I’m John, I’m 23 and I’m currently studying law at Demontfort University. I have been tutoring now for almost two years mainly in maths from KS1 up to GCSE and have developed the knowledge and skills to be able to tailor my lessons to best suit the student as no one style will work best for everyone.

Johanna P
Johanna has been tutoring my son in English for the Scottish National 5 exam preparation since February, and her support has been excellent. She is patient, engaging, and creates a very positive learning environment that my son genuinely enjoys. She supports him in understanding deeper meanings, analysing texts, and responding clearly and confidently in writing. As a result, his interest in English has grown significantly, along with his confidence in his ability to understand complex literature and poetry. His test results have improved substantially since he started working with her. Johanna is reliable, professional, and truly dedicated to her students. I would highly recommend her.
