Rob R
Expert GCSE English Tutor
22 students received their GCSE results this year - my biggest Y11 cohort yet, and with record success: 🎓 76% achieved top grades (7–9). 🍎 Every single student improved by at least one grade - and 80% jumped by two grades or more. ✏️ Four students were previously struggling at grade 3 - all passed, and two went on to secure a grade 6. 🏫 One student rose from a grade 4 at the end of Year 10 to a grade 9 at GCSE! Because I had so many students finishing their GCSEs this year, it means I have more spaces from September.Emails from students on GCSE Results Day:Student 1 (Edexcel IGCSE English): "Dea...

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-Levels at Franklin College. Can a tutor help them secure the right GCSE English grade?
Absolutely. Many of our English tutors specialise in helping students prepare for their GCSEs. They can focus on strengthening the specific essay writing and analytical skills needed to secure the grades required for A-Level courses at colleges like Franklin.
We're concerned about the high expectations at schools like Tollbar Academy. Can a tutor help my child keep up?
Yes, a tutor provides a supportive space where your child can work at their own pace. They can go over topics from school they didn't quite grasp, build their confidence, and develop study skills to help them manage the demands of a fast-paced curriculum.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can read tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs before booking. Finding someone your child connects with is the most important first step.
How much does an online English tutor in New Waltham cost?
The price for English tutors varies depending on their experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, allowing you to find an experienced tutor who fits your family's budget.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence in English?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By breaking down tricky topics and celebrating small wins, a tutor helps them see that they are capable, which is a huge confidence booster.
How do you make sure your tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor undergoes a background check and has their ID and qualifications verified. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
Can a tutor help with specific parts of the GCSE English exam, like poetry analysis?
Yes, definitely. Our tutors can create lessons that focus specifically on exam components, from analysing unseen poetry to structuring persuasive writing. They can share techniques and practice questions to help your child feel fully prepared for exam day.
How do online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. All they need is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
What is the First Lesson Guarantee?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. 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 a lesson?
Most families find that one lesson a week is a great starting point for consistent progress. However, you can arrange a schedule that works best for your child with your chosen tutor, whether that's more frequent sessions before an exam or fortnightly lessons.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's progress. You can also message them at any time to ask questions or discuss how things are going. The biggest sign, though, is often seeing your child's confidence grow in the subject.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also offer support in a huge range of other areas. Your child can learn skills like coding, play a musical instrument like the guitar, or even learn a new language.
