A strong pass in English isn't just another GCSE – it's a fundamental qualification that underpins almost every other subject. The skills your child develops, from analysing a complex quote in 'Macbeth' to structuring a persuasive essay, are exactly what they'll need for demanding A-Levels. More than that, these communication skills are vital for writing compelling university applications and will give them a real advantage in their future career.

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...

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
My child attends The Thomas Adams School. Can a tutor help them with the specific GCSE English curriculum?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are very experienced with the AQA, Edexcel and other exam board specifications used in schools across the country. You can discuss your child's specific needs, set texts, and areas of concern with a tutor before booking to ensure they are a perfect match.
We're hoping for A-Levels at Shrewsbury Colleges Group. Can a tutor help prepare my child for that step?
Yes, they can. A great English tutor will focus on building the analytical and essay-writing skills that are essential for success at A-Level. They can help your child secure the GCSE grades they need to progress and build a strong foundation for their post-16 studies.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, watch their introduction videos, and read reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's goals. Finding someone your child connects with is key, so it's great to have a short chat first.
How much do online English tutors in Wem cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which are displayed clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and level of study, so you can find an experienced, affordable tutor that fits your family's budget.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes. We take your child's safety very seriously. Every tutor on our platform has passed a background check and has been personally vetted by our team. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
One-to-one tutoring creates a safe space for your child to ask questions they might not feel comfortable asking in a busy classroom. When a tutor tailors lessons to their specific needs, your child will start to see real progress, which is the best confidence booster there is.
What if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. 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 does online tutoring work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection.
Can a tutor help with both English Language and English Literature?
Yes, most of our English tutors are experts in both and can help your child across the full curriculum. You can check their profiles for specific experience and message them to discuss exactly what support your child needs.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
The standard lesson length is one hour, which gives enough time to cover a topic in detail without your child losing focus. However, you can arrange different session lengths by discussing it directly with your chosen tutor.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one session a week is ideal for consistent progress. However, the frequency is completely up to you. You might want to arrange more sessions in the run-up to exams, or fewer during school holidays. It's flexible to suit your needs.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have tutors for over 300 academic subjects, we also have experts who can teach practical skills and hobbies. From learning to play the guitar or speak a new language to coding in Python, there's a huge range of skills your child can explore.
