Why a Strong Grasp of English is Key for Your Child's Future
English isn't just about analysing poetry; it's the foundation for success in every other subject. Strong comprehension and writing skills are vital, from understanding exam questions in Science to crafting persuasive essays in History. A good grade in GCSE English is often a requirement for A-Level courses at respected local sixth forms like Palmer's College, and it opens up a huge range of university and career paths for your child.

Sam H
I started working with Sam quite late in the A-Level year, but despite the limited time he put in so much effort and support. He completely rebuilt my confidence in English Language and helped take me from a B to an A — the first A I’d ever achieved in English, and I got it in my actual A-Levels. He had me writing answers every week and always gave incredibly thorough, clear feedback that really helped me improve quickly. I genuinely wouldn’t have achieved my grade without him and can’t recommend him enough.
