Find an Online English Tutor in Liverpool to Help Your Child Thrive
Watching your child navigate the pressures of school in Liverpool can be tough. With fierce competition for places at schools like The Blue Coat and high standards across the board, it's natural to worry if they're getting the focused support they need in English.
You know that strong GCSE grades in both English Language and Literature are the key to unlocking their choice of A-Levels and, eventually, a place at a great university like the University of Liverpool. If you're concerned that your child needs a bit more help to master sophisticated essay writing or tricky text analysis, you're not alone.
Finding the right one-to-one English tutor can make all the difference. It’s about more than just grades; it’s about building your child's confidence and giving them the dedicated support they need to truly shine.

Securing a great grade in English ensures they have the widest possible choice of future paths, keeping their options open for competitive courses and opportunities.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is aiming for a competitive school like The Blue Coat. Can a tutor help?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our English tutors have experience helping students build the core reading, writing, and comprehension skills needed to perform well in entrance exams and thrive in a competitive academic environment. They can help your child build a strong foundation and grow in confidence.
We're hoping for a place at a Russell Group university like the University of Liverpool. How can an English tutor support this?
A dedicated English tutor can be invaluable. They can help your child develop the advanced analytical and essay-writing skills required for A-Level success, which are crucial for applications to competitive university courses. Tutors can work on everything from textual analysis to crafting a compelling personal statement.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's easy to find a great match on Tutorful. You can read tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, check their experience and qualifications, and read reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking to ensure you find the perfect fit.
How much does an online English tutor in Liverpool cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, so prices vary depending on their experience and level of expertise. You can easily filter tutors by price on our search page to find someone who fits your budget, with prices clearly displayed on every profile.
My child has lost their confidence in English. Can tutoring help?
Definitely. One of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring is the boost in confidence it provides. A tutor creates a safe and encouraging environment where your child can work at their own pace, ask questions without fear of judgment, and celebrate their progress, which can make a huge difference to their self-esteem.
What if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you have the best possible experience, which is 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 the online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It's simple to use and allows your child to learn from the comfort of home, saving you time and travel.
How can a tutor help with GCSE English Language and Literature specifically?
Our tutors are experts in the GCSE curriculum. They can help your child break down set texts, analyse unseen poetry, improve their creative writing, and perfect their exam technique. Many students find that this targeted support can improve their GCSE results by up to two grades.
Are your tutors' backgrounds checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors are background-checked and we interview every single one. We are very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply to our platform, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one session a week is ideal for consistent progress, but the frequency is completely up to you. You can discuss what would work best with your chosen tutor, whether it's regular weekly lessons or a few intensive sessions before an exam.
How quickly can we start?
You can start very quickly! Simply search for a tutor, send them a message to check their availability, and you could be booking your child's first lesson for as early as tomorrow. Many of our 200,000+ happy students started their journey this way.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or music?
While we have fantastic tutors for core academic subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also offer support for a huge range of other interests. You can find expert tutors to help your child learn to play the guitar, master coding in Python, or even learn a new language.
