It’s about more than just revision; it’s about giving your child a dedicated expert who can help them build the high-level analytical and essay-writing skills they need to feel confident, stand out, and reach their goals.

Why a Top Grade in English Opens Doors For Your Child

David J
Experienced English Tutor
When it comes to History, I have always loved the subject, leading me to secure my place at the University of Leeds and to follow through my degree and gain a 2:1. While doing so, I had a fantastic time living in Leeds, which is why I came back to live here. My focus was on the British Empire, but having studied History all the way through school and university, my experience with the subject is very broad. For example I studied Britain from 1880-1980 and Nazi Germany at A Level, and American foreign policy and race relations and the Russian Revolution at GCSE. History is one of the most important...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is aiming for a top sixth form like Greenhead College. Can a tutor help them get the high GCSE English grades they need?

Absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in helping students move beyond a standard pass to achieve the higher grades needed for competitive sixth forms. They can focus on developing the advanced analytical, critical thinking, and essay-writing skills that examiners are looking for.

We live near Heckmondwike Grammar and the academic standards are high. Can a tutor help my child feel more confident?

Yes, this is one of the main benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A tutor provides a safe, encouraging space for your child to ask questions they might not feel comfortable asking in a classroom. By working at their pace, a tutor can help fill any knowledge gaps and build their confidence week by week.

How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?

It’s easy to find the perfect fit on our platform. You can read detailed tutor profiles, check their experience with the GCSE curriculum, and see ratings and reviews from other parents. Many tutors also offer a short introductory chat to make sure they're the right person to help your child.

What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?

We want to make sure you find the perfect match, 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 much does an online English tutor in Liversedge cost?

Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which typically range from £25 to £45, depending on their experience and level of expertise. You can see each tutor's price clearly on their profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget.

How does online tutoring actually work?

It’s very straightforward! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.

Are your tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every tutor and all of our tutors must have a valid DBS check before they can teach on our platform. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply.

How quickly will we see an improvement in my child's grades?

Every child learns at a different pace, but consistent, tailored support makes a real difference. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. The biggest change parents often notice first is a boost in their child's confidence and enjoyment of the subject.

Can a tutor help with specific texts like 'Macbeth' or poetry anthologies?

Definitely. Our English tutors are experts in the national curriculum and can provide focused support on specific texts, whether it's understanding Shakespearean language, comparing poems, or structuring an essay on a modern novel.

Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or guitar?

We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we have experts in all core academic subjects like English, Maths, and Science, you can also find brilliant tutors for music, languages, coding, and much more.

What makes Tutorful different from other tutoring services?

We're trusted by thousands of families across the UK, with a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 reviews. We focus on matching your child with a hand-picked, background-checked expert who can provide truly personalised, one-to-one support in a way that builds their confidence for the long term.

Do we have to commit to a certain number of lessons?

Not at all. We believe in complete flexibility. You can book lessons one at a time or schedule a regular weekly slot with your chosen tutor. There are no contracts or long-term commitments, so you can find a rhythm that works for your family.
