Why a Strong GCSE English Grade is So Important
GCSE English is more than just a qualification; it's the key that unlocks your child's future choices. A strong pass, especially a grade 5 or above, is often essential for getting into the A-Level courses they want, whether that's at a college in Mansfield, Nottingham, or further afield. The skills they develop – from analysing quotes in 'Macbeth' to crafting a persuasive argument – are the same ones they'll need for university applications and future careers. It’s about giving them the best possible start.

Our tutors are experts at getting to know your child, understanding how they learn, and building a genuine rapport. This personal connection makes learning feel less like a chore and helps your child feel comfortable asking questions and tackling tricky topics. Every one-to-one session is built around your child.

This focused approach is why 90% of students improve by at least one grade with us. For GCSEs, that support can mean improving by up to two grades – a huge step towards securing that all-important grade 5 or higher.

Nadiah K
Nadiah is an AMAZING English tutor.
Nadiah is very reliable, organised and efficient, prompting and guiding my son to keep on track outside of sessions aswell. I have had feedback from school after just a few months that the quality of my sons writing has improved significantly and teachers have asked if he has been doing anything different.
My son is also developing more of an interest in the subject which has been really nice to see.

Jeremy B
After the first lesson my son announced “That was amazing Mum, you need to watch the video, he was SUCH a good teacher”. This couldn’t have been more different to previous feedback on our attempts to find an English tutor. I’m delighted that Jeremy is structured in his lessons, but also his tone is very friendly and fun! My 12 year old son has Tourettes and ADHD, and has been quite unwell. It’s also done wonders for my mental health knowing Jeremy is guiding my son through English, after seeing the videos I do not have this skill! 100% recommend him!

Michelle P
Wonderful English Tutor!
Michelle has been an incredible English tutor for our daughter Sarah. She always starts each session with a fun “mind boggle,” which Sarah absolutely loves — it sets such a positive and energising tone for the lesson. From the moment she enters the class, Michelle makes Sarah smile.
Her lessons are interesting, engaging, and thoughtfully planned. Michelle brings a fantastic mix of humour, enthusiasm, and kindness to every session, and it truly shows in Sarah’s enjoyment and progress. She has a wonderful teaching style that keeps Sarah motivated and excited to learn.
We are so grateful for Michelle’s support and highly recommend her to anyone looking for an English tutor who can make learning both effective and fun.
Thank you Michelle.

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.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child attends The Dukeries Academy. Can a tutor help them specifically aim for a grade 5 or higher in GCSE English?
Absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in helping students target specific grades. They can work with your child on the exact areas needed to turn a grade 4 into a 5 or above, focusing on exam technique, essay writing, and building a deeper understanding of the curriculum.
We're worried about A-Level entry requirements for colleges in Mansfield and Nottingham. Can a tutor help with this?
Yes, this is a common goal for many parents we help. An English tutor can focus on securing the GCSE grade your child needs to open up their A-Level options at local colleges. By building strong foundational skills, they help ensure your child has the best possible choice for their next steps.
What if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you feel the first tutor isn't the right match 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 pick the right English tutor for my child?
You can start by using our search filters to find tutors with experience in the right area, like GCSE English. Watch their introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and send messages to a few to ask about their approach. Finding someone your child connects with is key.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates based on their experience. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, so you can find an expert tutor that fits your family's budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident in English?
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. Tutors celebrate small wins and break down difficult topics, like algebra or poetry analysis, into manageable steps, which really helps build self-belief.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our priority. All of our tutors are background-checked and we interview every single one. We are very selective, and only 1 in 8 tutors who apply are accepted onto our platform, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How does online tutoring work?
It's simple. All lessons happen in our online classroom, which has a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and tools for sharing documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a microphone, a camera, and a stable internet connection.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one lesson a week is a great starting point for making steady progress. However, it's completely flexible. You and your tutor can decide on a schedule that works best for your child's goals and your family's routine.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills like coding or a musical instrument?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding in Python, or even learn a new language, you can find an expert tutor to help them explore their interests.
How long are the tutoring sessions?
The standard lesson length is one hour. This gives enough time to cover a topic in detail without your child losing focus. You can discuss different lesson lengths with your tutor if needed.
What happens if we need to cancel a lesson?
We understand that life can be unpredictable. We have a simple 24-hour cancellation policy. As long as you give your tutor at least 24 hours' notice, you can cancel or reschedule your lesson without any charge.
