Why Strong English Grades Are So Important for Your Child's Future

A good grade in English is more than just a pass; it's a key that unlocks doors to A-Levels, university courses, and future careers. The skills your child develops are essential for almost everything they'll do next. Whether it's analysing quotes from 'Macbeth' for their literature exam or building a persuasive argument for English Language, they are learning how to think critically and communicate clearly. These are exactly the skills that top universities and employers look for, giving your child a real head start.

For GCSE students, that can mean a boost of up to 2 grades, making a huge difference to their applications. With online tutoring, you can forget about extra journeys after school.

Kader (tony) B
I have been tutoring English for the last 25 years.
I have in particular come to understand the value of sharing learning objectives and success criteria with children. Knowing exactly what is expected and how they can achieve allows children to focus more clearly on tasks.Progression needs to be planned for, so that as children work and explore at their own pace, there is always something else ready to move them on and take them further in their learning. I also believe that differentiation and meeting varied learning styles are key to effective teaching and learning. Work should be set at an appropriate, but challenging, level. When I prepare...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child wants to apply to The Priory Academy LSST for sixth form. Can a tutor help with the GCSE English grades they'll need?

Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in helping students achieve the high grades needed for competitive sixth forms. They can focus on the specific areas of the GCSE English curriculum your child needs to strengthen to boost their application and secure their place.

We live in North Hykeham. How does online tutoring work if the tutor isn't local?

Online tutoring gives you access to the best tutors across the UK, not just those nearby. Your child connects with their tutor in our online classroom, which has features like a shared whiteboard and video chat. It's just as effective as in-person tutoring but offers far more flexibility and choice.

How do I choose the best 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.

What if my child doesn't click with their first English tutor?

We want to make sure you find the perfect match. 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.

Can tutoring help my child improve their GCSE English grade?

Yes, it can make a significant difference. Our focused, one-to-one support is designed to target your child's specific needs, and we can help them improve their GCSE results by up to 2 grades. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.

How much does an online English tutor cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, so you can find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.

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 are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence in English?

Often, a lack of confidence comes from not understanding a specific topic. In a one-to-one session, your child has a safe space to ask questions without feeling embarrassed. A tutor can go over things at your child's pace, celebrating small wins and building their self-belief.

Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can you help with other interests?

We offer tutoring for a huge range of skills beyond the school curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn creative writing, coding, a new language, or even how to play the guitar, you can find an expert tutor to help them explore their passions.

How long is a typical tutoring session?

Most tutoring sessions are one hour long. This gives enough time to cover a topic in detail without your child losing focus. However, you can arrange different session lengths directly with your chosen tutor to suit your child's needs.

What happens in the first lesson?

The first lesson is usually about getting to know each other. The tutor will chat with your child about what they enjoy, what they find tricky in English, and what they want to achieve. It's a relaxed way to build a plan for future sessions.

How do I know if my child is making progress?

Our tutors provide regular feedback on how your child is doing. You can also message your tutor at any time to discuss progress. Seeing your child's confidence grow and their school results improve are often the clearest signs.
