Why a Strong English GCSE Opens Doors for Your Child
English isn't just another GCSE; it's a fundamental qualification that top colleges and universities look for. A strong pass is often a non-negotiable entry requirement for the most sought-after A-Level courses at places like Wyke College and beyond. More than that, the skills your child develops—from analysing a quote from 'Macbeth' to crafting a persuasive argument—are the same skills they'll need to succeed at competitive universities like York or Durham, and in their future career.

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.

Grace B
My daughter worked with Grace as she wanted to re-take her English Language GCSE to improve her grade. My daughter thought Grace was a fantastic teacher. After her first lesson she said she had learnt more in an hour with her than she had in her previous two years at school! She has a lovely friendly manner and put my daughter at ease straight away. She also puts a lot into the lessons through preparation, marking and generally guiding the learning where it's needed most. As an examiner herself she also has a clear understanding of what students need to work on to succeed. Couldn't recommend her highly enough and whether or not my daughter does improve her grade, I know that the lessons were worthwhile. Thank you Grace!

John M
John has been nothing short of a miracle worker with our Year 9 son. In a matter of a few lessons his confidence in English has really grown. He was previously really disengaged with English & it was a real effort to get him to spend any amount of time on it. Now with John’s encouragement, he actually shows me his English homework & wants to improve, work at it. Highly recommend

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child hopes to go to Wyke College or York College. Can a tutor help with this?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are very experienced in helping students secure the GCSE grades they need for specific post-16 providers. They can focus on the key skills and knowledge required for a strong pass in English, which is often a crucial entry requirement for competitive A-Level courses.
We're thinking long-term about universities like York or Durham. How does tutoring help now?
That's a great goal. Strong GCSEs, particularly in core subjects like English, form the foundation for a competitive university application. A tutor helps by building not just knowledge, but also critical thinking and analytical skills that are vital for A-Levels and university-level study. Securing a top GCSE grade now keeps those future doors wide open.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure it's the right fit for your child. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, just 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 read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend shortlisting a few and sending them a message to discuss your child's specific needs before booking. It's all about finding a personality and teaching style that your child will respond to.
How much does an English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on their experience and qualifications, so you can find a brilliant tutor who fits your family's budget. There are no hidden fees or long-term contracts.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple and effective. 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.
Can a tutor help my child if they've lost confidence in English?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tuition. A great tutor provides a safe, supportive space where your child can ask questions without fear of judgement. By breaking down tricky topics and celebrating small wins, they can help rebuild your child's self-belief.
How do I know my child is safe online?
Your child's safety is our highest priority. All our tutors undergo a thorough vetting process, including identity and background checks. All lessons are recorded, providing a secure learning environment and a useful tool for your child to review later.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
Not at all! While we have amazing 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 everything from learning a musical instrument like the guitar to practical skills like coding and Python.
How long are the tutoring sessions?
The standard session length is one hour, which most students find is the perfect amount of time to cover a topic in depth without losing focus. However, you can discuss different session lengths with your chosen tutor to find what works best for your child.
How many lessons will my child need?
This really depends on your child's individual goals. Some students have a few sessions to prepare for a specific exam, while others have regular weekly lessons to build their skills over time. You can discuss a plan with your tutor, and there's no pressure to commit to a set number of lessons.
How can I track my child's progress?
The best way is through open communication with the tutor. They can provide regular feedback on what they've covered in sessions and how your child is improving. You can message your tutor at any time through the platform to ask questions or discuss progress.
