Why a Strong GCSE in English is Key for Your Child's Future
English isn't just about passing an exam; it's the key that unlocks your child's future choices. A strong GCSE grade in English Language and Literature is often a requirement for competitive A-Level courses and is highly valued by top universities. The skills they'll develop – from analysing a quote in 'Macbeth' to crafting a persuasive argument – are skills for life, giving them the confidence to succeed in whatever path they choose.

Also, I tutor British Sign language (BSL), in which I have over 10+ years experience.Additionally, I have been tutoring for 6 years now. I am familiar with the OCR, Edexcel and AQA boards.

Holly E
Holly has been tutoring my son in English GCSE for the last half term. He has found the lessons very useful, working in a logical order through the different aspects of the curriculum. Holly is friendly, approachable and encouraging.
My Son has just had his mock exam results and has moved from just hitting an exam grade boundary to being 2 points off the next grade up. We are very pleased at his progress in a short space of time.

Mamun A
My son is really improving since starting lessons with Mamun. From the start of the lesson getting almost all questions wrong to by the end completely understanding it all. Tested him a few days later and he got almost every question right without any help at all he remembered all the punctuation in all questions, shocked how much he's improved from just one lesson on it! Mamun's teaching is brilliant and it really seems to stick in my sons head. Also my son is very fussy with his ASD/ADHD and is often open about his feelings towards people, especially new people most often than not he will say he doesn't like this person because of this or that, but he said he likes his tutor and wants to do more lessons which is brilliant. Mamun is always on time, very patient and explains thoroughly, he gives brilliant feedback afterwards too. Highly recommend this tutor and I'm glad I chose him rather than someone else.

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!

Michelle P
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 study A-Levels at Kendal College. Can a tutor help them secure the right GCSE English grade?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are GCSE English specialists. They can create a personalised learning plan to target the exact areas your child needs to improve, helping them build the skills and confidence needed to achieve the grades required for their chosen A-Level courses.
We're worried about the step up from The Lakes School to a competitive university like Lancaster. How can a tutor help?
A tutor can be a fantastic partner in bridging that gap. They provide the focused, one-to-one attention that helps deepen your child's understanding beyond the curriculum. This not only builds confidence and improves grades but also develops the independent thinking skills that are so important for success at university.
How do I choose the right English tutor for my child?
You can view tutors' profiles to see their experience, qualifications, and read reviews from other parents. We recommend sending messages to a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking. It's all about finding a personality and teaching style that your child connects with.
What if we don't click with the first tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. 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 an online English tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study. This means you can find an amazing, qualified tutor that fits your family's budget.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors undergoes a thorough background check. We also manually vet each application, accepting only 1 in 8 who apply, to ensure your child learns from the very best.
How can a tutor help my child with their confidence, not just their grades?
Confidence is at the heart of what we do. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions without fear of being judged. Tutors celebrate small wins and help your child see their own progress, which can transform how they feel about a subject and about learning in general.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing tools, making it easy for your child and their tutor to work together in real-time, just like they would in person.
Can a tutor help with both English Language and English Literature?
Yes, definitely. Many of our English tutors are experienced in teaching both parts of the curriculum. You can see their specific areas of expertise on their profiles and discuss your child's individual needs with them directly.
How long will it take to see an improvement in my child's English results?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our experience shows that consistent, weekly lessons can make a significant difference. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. The key is the regular, personalised support that helps concepts click into place.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills like coding or playing the guitar?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we have experts in core subjects like English, Maths, and Science, you can also find brilliant tutors for music, languages, coding, and professional skills. It's all about helping your child pursue their passions.
What happens in a typical first lesson?
The first lesson is usually about getting to know each other. The tutor will chat with your child about their goals, what they find tricky in English, and what they enjoy. It's a relaxed session designed to build rapport and create a plan for future lessons.
