Why a Strong English GCSE Opens Doors for Your Child in Wales
English isn't just another subject; it's a fundamental skill that underpins almost every other. A good grade in WJEC English Language and Literature is essential for your child's next steps, whether that's college, sixth form, or university. The ability to analyse a poem, structure a persuasive essay, or unpick the language in *Macbeth* gives them the tools for success across all their studies, including the Welsh Baccalaureate. With our support, 90% of students improve by at least one grade, and for GCSEs, we can help boost their results by up to two grades.

Carole G
Professional English tutor
Hi, my name is Carole. I worked as a primary school teacher for 19 years and I have been tutoring children from reception to year 8, mainly online, since February 2020. I have worked with many children, helping them to achieve success in SATs, school entrance exams or to gain increased confidence and enjoyment of their subjects in school. I had some recent feedback from a parent, stating that their child had "gone from being scared of maths (and trying to hide it by saying maths is boring) to loving it!" Some of my current students have worked with me for several years, continuing after primary...

John H
Experienced English tutor
Hi, I’m John, I’m 23 and I’m currently studying law at Demontfort University. I have been tutoring now for almost two years mainly in maths from KS1 up to GCSE and have developed the knowledge and skills to be able to tailor my lessons to best suit the student as no one style will work best for everyone. For example, some students may benefit from shorter lessons, some may benefit from taking the lessons at a much slower pace, some may prefer to just dive straight into questions and many other factors that we will be able to identify together and use to customise the lesson to best suit the stude...

Welcome to my profile. I'm an experienced online tutor and examiner, who has been teaching English Language & Literature and Religious Studies online since 2013. I am a fully qualified teacher with a Post-Graduate Certificate in Education.While I am a passionate tutor of each of those two subjects individually, more importantly I feel that my experience in each subject contributes something to the other.

Roy is doing a great job helping my son prepare for his GCSE English exam. He has only had a few lessons with Roy, but I can already see that he is more confident and enjoying him lessons, which is wonderful. Thanks.

Gearoid C
Gearoid supported my son with GCSE English during a key transition period in Year 11. My son had moved schools and was adjusting to a different GCSE specification, which had left noticeable gaps in his knowledge. Gearoid helped him bridge those gaps methodically and clarified the expectations of the exam board.
From the very first session, there was a shift in confidence. My son came out saying, “So I’m not stupid.” Over time, that developed into him saying he “felt clever.” For a student who can struggle with processing speed and exam anxiety, this was a significant and meaningful change.
Gearoid is calm, professional and thoughtful in his approach. He communicates clearly, is reliable, and genuinely cares about his students’ progress. I am grateful for the role he played in rebuilding both understanding and belief.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can I find a tutor who specialises in the WJEC English curriculum?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our English tutors have extensive experience with the WJEC syllabus for both Language and Literature. You can check their profiles for specific experience and even send them a message before booking to ensure they're the right fit for your child.
My child hopes to apply to Cardiff University. Can a tutor help with their personal statement?
Yes. A strong personal statement is crucial for competitive courses. Many of our English tutors are experienced in helping students craft compelling personal statements that showcase their skills and passion, giving them a great advantage in their applications to Welsh universities like Cardiff or Swansea.
How do I choose the best English tutor for my child?
It's all about finding the right fit. You can read reviews from other parents, check a tutor's qualifications and experience on their profile, and watch their introductory video to get a feel for their teaching style. We recommend sending a message to a few tutors to discuss your child's goals before you book.
How much does an online English tutor in Wales cost?
The price varies depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. This allows you to find an experienced, high-quality tutor who fits your family's budget.
How can one-to-one tutoring help my child feel more confident?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might be shy about in class. Tutors can break down difficult topics and celebrate small wins, helping your child see their own progress and building their self-belief.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple and effective. All lessons take place in our specially designed online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors must have a valid DBS check (or equivalent) and provide professional or academic references. We are very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply to our platform, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or guitar?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! Beyond core academic support for things like GCSEs and A-Levels, you can find expert tutors to help your child learn a musical instrument, master a new language, or even get started with practical skills like coding.
What if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
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 long are the lessons and how often should we have them?
Lessons are typically one hour long. Most families find that a regular weekly session works best to build momentum and keep up with schoolwork, but the frequency is completely up to you. You can discuss what's best for your child directly with your chosen tutor.
Can I track my child's progress?
Yes. We encourage open communication between parents and tutors. You can message your child's tutor at any time to ask for updates, and they will be happy to share feedback on your child's progress and the topics they've been covering in lessons.
What happens if we need to cancel or reschedule a lesson?
We understand that life can be unpredictable. Our platform has a 24-hour cancellation policy. As long as you give your tutor at least 24 hours' notice, you can cancel or reschedule a lesson without any charge. You can manage all your bookings easily through your Tutorful account.
