Why Strong English Grades Open Doors for Your Child
English isn't just another subject; it's a skill for life and a key qualification that universities and employers look for. Strong analytical and communication skills, developed by digging into a poem or structuring a persuasive essay, are essential. Achieving a top grade in GCSE English can be the key to securing a place on their chosen A-Level courses at a respected local college, and later, a place at a top university like Royal Holloway or in London.

Personalised English Tutoring to Help Your Child Stand Out
Every child learns differently, and a great tutor understands that. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you’re choosing from the best. They are experts in their subject who know how to connect with young people, understand your child's specific goals, and adapt their teaching style to help them truly thrive. Instead of a one-size-fits-all approach, each online lesson is built around your child. If they're struggling to analyse quotes from 'Macbeth', their tutor can dedicate time to building that skill. If they need to sharpen their essay technique for English Language, their tutor will provide targeted feedback and practice. This focused support is why 90% of our students improve by at least one grade, with many improving their GCSE results by up to two grades. Finding the right support shouldn't add to your family's stress. With our online platform, you can find a brilliant, background-checked tutor and arrange lessons that fit perfectly around your schedule. No travel, no fuss – just expert help from the comfort of your home, at a time that works for you.

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!

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.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child wants to apply to Strodes College. Can a tutor help them secure the GCSE English grades they need?
Yes, absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in helping students aim for the top grades (7-9) often required for competitive A-Level courses. They can focus specifically on the curriculum and exam techniques needed to help your child meet the entry requirements for colleges like Strodes.
We're aiming for top grades to help with future applications to universities like Royal Holloway. Can a tutor provide that level of support?
Definitely. A strong GCSE in English is a fantastic foundation for A-Levels and university applications. Our tutors can help your child develop the deeper analytical and writing skills that not only secure top GCSE grades but also prepare them for the demands of higher education.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
It's easy to find the perfect match. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check each tutor's experience. We recommend messaging a few to discuss your child's specific needs before booking your first session to ensure you find a great fit.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right student-tutor relationship is key to success. 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 much does online English tutoring cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, typically starting from £25 per hour. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study. You can easily filter by price on our platform to find an excellent tutor who fits your budget.
Are all the tutors' backgrounds checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed a background check. We also interview every applicant and only accept 1 in every 8 who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
My child lacks confidence in English. Can a tutor help with that?
Building confidence is at the heart of what our tutors do. The one-to-one environment provides a safe space for your child to ask questions without fear of judgement. Celebrating small wins and breaking down difficult topics helps them see they are capable, which is often the biggest hurdle to overcome.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. All your child needs is a computer or tablet with a stable internet connection, a webcam, and a microphone.
Can we get help with both English Language and English Literature?
Yes, most of our English tutors are highly experienced in teaching both the Language and Literature GCSE curricula. You can check individual tutor profiles or message them to confirm they cover the specific texts and exam boards your child is studying.
How can a tutor help my child with exam technique?
Exam technique is crucial for achieving top grades. Tutors can teach your child how to understand what questions are really asking, how to structure their answers effectively, manage their time in the exam, and what examiners are looking for to award the highest marks.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
Most sessions are one hour long, as this is usually the perfect amount of time to cover a topic in depth without your child losing focus. However, you can discuss different session lengths directly with your tutor to find what works best for your child.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have thousands of tutors for core academic subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also offer a huge range of other skills. Your child could learn anything from coding and guitar to a new language or even public speaking.
