Why a Strong GCSE in English is so Important
GCSE English is more than just another qualification; it's a fundamental skill for life. It teaches your child how to understand complex ideas, communicate their own thoughts clearly, and build a convincing argument. These are skills they'll use every day, whether they're analysing quotes from 'An Inspector Calls', writing a university application, or succeeding in their future career. A strong pass opens up a huge range of A-Level and degree choices, giving them the best possible start.

I am offering to teach from primary all the way up to A level in various subjects. My strongest topics are the sciences and mathematics but I am also more than capable to teach English up to KS3. Furthermore, I have a vast amount of experience teaching younger children in...

Harry L
Our son has dyslexia and had taken his GCSE English several times without passing. He was demoralized with the whole process. We had 6 weeks before the next attempt and we were lucky enough to find Harry. He said that in his first lesson with him he had learnt more about exam technique than he had in all of his GCSE lessons. Today he got a grade 5 which seemed impossible before Harry's tutor sessions. Thankyou very much Harry, our family is extremely grateful for your particular teaching skills and supporting our son to success.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child needs a strong GCSE English grade for A-Levels in Nottingham. Can a tutor help?
Absolutely. This is one of the most common reasons parents come to us. Our English tutors are experienced in helping students secure the grades they need, focusing on the specific skills required to turn a potential grade 4 into a 5, 6, or higher, opening up those all-important A-Level choices.
With competitive local schools, how can a tutor help my child keep up?
It's natural to want your child to have the best opportunities. A personal tutor can level the playing field by providing focused, one-to-one support that complements their work at schools like The Long Eaton School or Wilsthorpe, building their confidence and ensuring they don't fall behind.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can view each tutor's profile, watch their introductory video, and read reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few to find someone your child will connect with. Many tutors also offer a free 15-minute chat to see if they're a good fit before you book.
How much does an online English tutor cost in Long Eaton?
Our tutors set their own rates, typically starting from around £20 per hour. You can filter tutors by price to find an expert who fits your budget, with no hidden fees or contracts. You simply pay as you go for the lessons you book.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. That's why we have a First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your first tutor for any reason, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How do online lessons work?
Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It’s a secure and effective learning space that your child can access from any computer or tablet.
How can tutoring help my child feel more confident?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might not ask in class. As they start to grasp tricky topics and see their grades improve, their self-belief naturally grows.
How do I know if Tutorful is a trusted platform?
We're proud to have helped over 200,000 students and earned a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 customer reviews. All our tutors are background-checked and hand-picked, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families start with one lesson a week, as this consistency helps to build momentum. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange more frequent sessions during exam periods or less frequent ones as needed, all in discussion with your tutor.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we offer fantastic support for academic subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also have tutors for hundreds of other skills. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or speak a new language, we can help.
Are the tutors qualified to teach GCSE English?
Yes. Many of our English tutors are qualified teachers, examiners, or subject-matter experts with degrees in English. You can see each tutor's qualifications, experience, and specialisms clearly listed on their profile.
What if my child has specific learning needs?
Our platform is ideal for finding a tutor who can adapt to your child's individual needs. Many tutors have experience supporting students with conditions like dyslexia or ADHD. You can use the search filters or message tutors directly to ask about their experience.
