Why a Strong GCSE English Grade is Key for Their Future
More than just another subject, GCSE English is a crucial qualification that opens doors to the best A-Level courses and future careers. It shows colleges and universities that your child can think critically, communicate their ideas clearly, and build a strong argument. These are the exact skills they need to succeed, whether they’re analysing quotes from 'Macbeth' for their exams, applying for a place at Bolton Sixth Form College, or eventually aiming for a top northern university like Manchester or Lancaster.

Nadiah K
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!

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.

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.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child wants to apply to Bolton Sixth Form College. Can a tutor help with that?
Yes, absolutely. Our English tutors can help your child build the core skills and subject knowledge needed to meet the entry requirements for competitive colleges. They'll focus on strengthening essay writing, textual analysis, and exam technique to help your child submit their application with confidence.
We live in Little Lever, so are the tutors also local?
Because our lessons are online, you get access to the best tutors from across the UK, not just the ones who live nearby. This gives you a much wider choice of specialists, so you can find the perfect tutor for your child's specific needs and learning style.
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.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and send messages to tutors before you book. Look for someone whose profile resonates with you and who has experience helping students with your child's specific goals, whether that's mastering Shakespeare or improving their creative writing.
Can tutoring really help improve my child's GCSE English grade?
Yes, it can make a significant difference. 90% of students who use Tutorful improve by at least one grade, and our data shows we can help students improve their GCSE results by up to two grades. The personalised attention helps fill knowledge gaps and builds confidence for exam day.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, the safety of our students is our top priority. All of our tutors have been interviewed by our team and have had their ID and background checks verified before they can teach on the platform.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. This allows you to find an experienced, high-quality tutor who fits your family's budget.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam and a stable internet connection.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
Often, a lack of confidence comes from not wanting to ask questions in a busy classroom. In a one-to-one session, your child has a safe space to say 'I don't understand'. Our tutors are experts at breaking down tricky topics and celebrating small wins, which helps build self-esteem over time.
How long are the tutoring sessions?
The standard lesson length is one hour, which we find is perfect for keeping students engaged and making real progress. However, you can discuss different lesson lengths with your tutor to find what works best for your child.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also offer support in a huge range of other areas. You can find tutors for modern languages, musical instruments like guitar, and even practical skills like coding.
How quickly can we start lessons?
You can get started very quickly. Many of our tutors can offer a lesson within a few days. Simply find a tutor you like, send them a message to check their availability, and you can book your first session directly from their profile.
