A good GCSE grade in both English Language and Literature is a key requirement for the most sought-after courses at college and competitive universities, giving your child the widest possible choice for their future.

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is hoping to apply to Sir John Deane's College. Can a tutor help with that?

Absolutely. Many of our English tutors have extensive experience helping students meet the entry requirements for competitive sixth-form colleges. They can focus on the specific skills and grade boundaries needed to strengthen your child's application and build their confidence for the step up to A-Levels.

We live in Winsford. Are the tutors local?

While all our lessons are online, you can view each tutor's profile to see where they are based. The benefit of online tutoring is that you can connect with the very best English tutor for your child's needs from across the UK, not just those limited to the Winsford area.

What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

We understand that the right fit is crucial for your child's success. 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 do I pick the right English tutor for my child?

You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend shortlisting a few tutors and sending them a message to discuss your child's specific goals before you book a lesson.

How can a tutor help my child if they've lost their confidence in English?

This is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor creates a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By breaking down tricky topics and celebrating small wins, they help rebuild your child's self-belief.

My child is aiming for a top grade in their GCSE English. Can a tutor help?

Definitely. Our tutors are experts at stretching and challenging students. For those aiming for grades 7-9 at GCSE, a tutor can introduce advanced analytical skills and sophisticated writing techniques to help them stand out and achieve their full potential.

How much does an online English tutor cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, allowing you to find an expert who fits your family's budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.

How do the online lessons work?

Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson: a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents and past papers. It's a simple and effective way to learn one-to-one, all from the comfort of your home.

Are your tutors' backgrounds checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors undergo a thorough vetting process, including an identity and background check, before they can join the platform. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the best.

How often should my child have a tutoring session?

Most students find a weekly one-hour session works best to build momentum and consolidate their learning. However, our platform is completely flexible, so you can arrange sessions as often as you and your child need, especially in the run-up to exams.

Is tutoring only for core subjects like English and Maths?

Not at all! We believe in learning for life. Alongside academic subjects, we have expert tutors who can teach a huge range of skills, from learning a musical instrument like the guitar to coding languages like Python or even preparing for the 11+.

How long does it take to see an improvement in my child's grades?

Every child learns at their own pace, but consistency is key. Many parents notice a boost in their child's confidence within just a few sessions. Academically, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade with regular lessons.
