Why a Strong GCSE English Grade is Key to Your Child's Future
English isn't just another subject; it's the foundation for so much of your child's future learning. The ability to analyse a complex quote from 'Macbeth' or structure a persuasive argument isn't just for exams. These are the skills that will help them excel in their A-Levels, write a compelling UCAS personal statement that stands out, and succeed at university and beyond. A great grade opens doors, giving your child the best possible start on their chosen path.

Rob R
Expert GCSE English Tutor
22 students received their GCSE results this year - my biggest Y11 cohort yet, and with record success: 🎓 76% achieved top grades (7–9). 🍎 Every single student improved by at least one grade - and 80% jumped by two grades or more. ✏️ Four students were previously struggling at grade 3 - all passed, and two went on to secure a grade 6. 🏫 One student rose from a grade 4 at the end of Year 10 to a grade 9 at GCSE! Because I had so many students finishing their GCSEs this year, it means I have more spaces from September.Emails from students on GCSE Results Day:Student 1 (Edexcel IGCSE English): "Dea...

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...

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child goes to Welshpool High School. Can a tutor help them get the English grades needed for Shrewsbury Colleges or NPTC Group?
Absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in helping students secure the top GCSE grades needed for post-16 study. They can create a tailored plan focusing on the specific requirements of the English Language and Literature curriculum to help your child feel confident and prepared for their next steps.
We're worried about their UCAS application. Can a tutor help with their personal statement for universities like Cardiff or Aberystwyth?
Yes, many of our English tutors are fantastic at helping with UCAS personal statements. They can guide your child on how to structure their thoughts, showcase their strengths, and write in a way that will impress admissions tutors at competitive universities.
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 goals. Finding someone your child connects with is the most important first step.
How much does an online English tutor cost?
Our English tutors set their own hourly rates, typically starting from £15 per hour. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study. You can see the price clearly on every tutor's profile, so there are no surprises.
What if my child doesn't click with their first English tutor?
We know how important the right fit is, which is 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 do you make sure your tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every tutor and only accept 1 in 8 who apply. All our tutors must have a valid DBS check or equivalent background check before they can teach on the platform.
My child's confidence in English is low. How can a tutor help?
This is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A tutor provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By breaking down tricky topics and celebrating small wins, they can rebuild your child's self-belief.
How do online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. All they need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one hour-long lesson per week is ideal for making steady progress. However, you can arrange sessions as often as you and your tutor feel is necessary, especially in the run-up to exams.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's progress. You can also message your tutor at any time to ask questions or discuss how things are going. Many parents say they see a positive change in their child's confidence and attitude towards the subject first.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can you help with other skills?
While we specialise in academic subjects like English, Maths, and Science, we also have tutors who can teach a wide range of other skills, from learning an instrument like the guitar to practical skills like coding.
What equipment does my child need for online tutoring?
It's simple to get started. All your child needs is a computer or laptop with a webcam, a microphone, and a good internet connection. Our online classroom is easy to use and works directly in your web browser, so there's no software to download.
