Why a Strong GCSE English Grade is Key for Their Norfolk Journey
GCSE English is more than just a qualification; it's the foundation for your child's future studies and career. Strong analytical and communication skills, developed while dissecting a quote from 'Macbeth' or structuring a persuasive essay, are exactly what top colleges look for. A great grade not only secures their place on their chosen A-Level courses but also builds the skills they'll need to thrive, whether they're aiming for a place at the University of East Anglia or starting their career.

Megan is a wonderful tutor!
My son has really enjoyed the sessions with her and she adapts them to ensure he is fully understanding the teaching.
Megan provides an overview of feedback after to each session which allows me to understand what she has covered in the session and how to future support my son.
I cannot recommend her enough!!

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 wants to study A-Levels at Paston College or City College Norwich. Can a tutor help them get the right GCSE English grade?
Absolutely. Our tutors specialise in helping students secure the grades they need for their next steps. They can focus specifically on the GCSE curriculum to build your child's confidence and skills, helping them aim for those crucial grades 5, 6, and above to keep their A-Level options wide open.
We live in Norfolk. Can tutoring now help my child with a future application to the University of East Anglia (UEA)?
Yes, building a strong foundation now is key. A great GCSE English grade is often a prerequisite for competitive A-Level courses, which in turn are vital for applications to respected universities like UEA. A tutor helps develop the analytical and essay-writing skills that will benefit them right through to their degree.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's easy to find a great match. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and filter tutors by their experience with GCSEs or specific exam boards. You can also message tutors beforehand to discuss your child's needs and make sure it's the right fit.
What if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match for your child. That's why we have our 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 can a tutor help my child feel more confident in English?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one session, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might not ask in class. Tutors celebrate small wins and break down tricky topics, like Shakespearean language, into manageable parts, which really helps build self-belief.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors has passed a background check. We are very selective, only accepting 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Our platform allows you to filter tutors by price, so you can easily find an expert who fits your family's budget. There are no hidden fees or long-term contracts.
How does online tutoring work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It includes 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.
Do you only offer academic subjects like English?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects, we also offer support in a huge range of other areas. Whether your child wants to learn a musical instrument like the guitar, get ahead with a coding language like Python, or explore a new hobby, we have expert tutors to help.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one session a week works perfectly for consistent progress. However, it's completely flexible. You and your tutor can decide on a schedule that best suits your child's goals, whether that's a bit of extra help before exams or regular weekly support.
Can a tutor help with specific texts like 'An Inspector Calls'?
Yes, definitely. Our tutors have deep knowledge of the school curriculum. They can provide targeted help on specific texts, poems, or plays your child is studying, helping them analyse key quotes and understand themes in a way that will impress examiners.
How can I track my child's progress?
You can speak directly with your child's tutor through our messaging system. They will be happy to give you regular feedback on how your child is doing, what they've been working on, and the progress they are making towards their goals.
