A strong GCSE grade, especially a 6 or above, shows that your child can think critically, communicate their ideas clearly, and build a convincing argument. These are essential skills for A-Levels and for their future career, giving them a real advantage long after they leave the classroom.

Hadika M
Dedicated English tutor
As a Chemical Engineering graduate from the University of Manchester, I saw firsthand how many of my classmates struggled with Maths and English. It wasn't just a few; it was a common challenge. Seeing their difficulties sparked something in me. I found that I genuinely loved helping them understand concepts that seemed confusing. The feeling of watching them grasp a difficult idea was incredibly rewarding, and that's when I discovered my passion for teaching.I strongly disagree with the idea that people are naturally "good" at one subject and "bad" at another. I believe that anyone can learn anything...

Kathy F
Creative English tutor
I am a Royal Holloway, University London graduate with a BA and MA, specialising in arts and humanities. I am very keen to help pupils to learn and fully understand what they might not get in a classroom environment. Whilst at school and even at university, I had one-on-one help and I would not have got the grades if it was not for this extra help. That is why I want to help those who may need the extra help to get the grades they want.I did my A levels at a school as opposed to a college and this gave me the experience to work with the lower parts of the school (junior and senior). I would help...

Janan S
Janan is such a great tutor! She explains things really well and is able to fully break down areas I struggle with in English and make it easy to follow. She is also very personable and creates an easy atmosphere and is very understanding when I am behind in assignments for her, having a very dedicated work ethic, making up for what I lack. She creates a very welcoming environment and I genuinely do enjoy our lessons. Also she has helped direct me towards revision strategy’s as well so I do feel I have improved too in that areas and in English in general too. Would strongly recommend!

Frances H
Frances has been helping my daughter with English and SPaG in preparation for her SATs and after just a few sessions, I’ve seen a difference. She sets weekly homework, takes a genuine interest in my daughter’s week and makes learning fun by playing games like hangman to aid spelling. My daughter is engaged and is starting to really grasp the content. Frances is patient, encouraging and explains things clearly, which has already boosted my daughter’s confidence.

Alexander A
We are 3 lessons in and already I can see the difference in confidence it has given my son. Alex has been great at engaging in sessions that are interactive, which suit my son's learning style. He is focusing on areas of weakness and breaking things down simply to give him the tools to improve his grades. Time will tell, but so far we are both really happy.

Flora I
We are absolutely delighted with the English tuition Flora is providing for our son in preparation for his GCSEs. He is really enjoying her lessons and already finding them extremely helpful. Flora listens carefully, offers clear and thoughtful advice, and focuses on strengthening his knowledge in a way that feels supportive and encouraging. Each lesson is very well structured, which has really helped build his confidence.
Although he has only had a few lessons so far, he already feels they will make a real difference and help him focus on exactly what he needs to prioritise for his exams. This is exactly what we hoped Flora would deliver, and we couldn’t be happier with the start she has made.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child get the grades needed for Rochdale Sixth Form or Holy Cross?
Absolutely. Many parents in Middleton come to us with this exact goal. Our tutors specialise in helping students build the skills and confidence needed to achieve a grade 6 or above at GCSE English, focusing on the specific areas your child needs to improve to meet those competitive college entry requirements.
Are your English tutors familiar with the curriculum taught in Middleton schools?
Yes. Our tutors are experts in the UK national curriculum, including the AQA, Edexcel, and OCR exam boards used by schools across the country, including those in Middleton. They can tailor lessons to match exactly what your child is learning in class.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check their qualifications on their profiles. We recommend sending a message to a few tutors to discuss your child's goals before booking a lesson to make sure you find the perfect fit.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study, so you can find an experienced, affordable tutor who fits your family's budget.
How do the online lessons actually work?
Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has everything your child needs to learn effectively, including video chat, an interactive whiteboard for sharing notes, and the ability to upload documents like essays or past papers to work on together.
My child has lost their confidence in English. Can a tutor help with that?
Yes, this is one of the most common reasons parents seek a tutor. The one-to-one environment is perfect for rebuilding confidence. Tutors create a patient and encouraging space where your child can learn at their own pace and ask questions without feeling embarrassed.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed a background check and has been personally interviewed by our team. We're very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply.
What if we don't get on with the first tutor we choose?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match for your child. That's why we have a 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 often should my child have an English lesson?
It’s completely flexible and depends on your child's needs. Most families start with one lesson a week, especially in the run-up to exams, but you can schedule sessions as often or as little as you like. You can discuss the best approach with your tutor.
How quickly can we get started?
You can get started very quickly. Many tutors are available to chat and can arrange a first lesson within a day or two. Simply find a tutor you like and send them a message to arrange a convenient time.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have thousands of expert academic tutors for subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also offer a huge range of other skills. Your child could learn to play the guitar, get help with coding in Python, or even learn a new language.
What happens in the first lesson?
The first lesson is usually a chance for the tutor to get to know your child. They'll chat about what your child enjoys, what they find tricky in English, and what their goals are. It's a relaxed session designed to build a good relationship from the start.
