Reviews for GCSE English Tutors

5.0
Alan provided French tuition to my son weekly for a year before his A level. He was aspiring to study languages at university and aiming high but having taken his GCSE a year early and in lockdown he lacked confidence and was considerably behind where he needed to be. Alan worked very hard with him and helped to grow his confidence and ability so that he was able to score 89% at A level, just 0.25% off an A*. We were all delighted with this result and my son secured his place to read languages at Bristol. Alan was a great source of advice on ways to develop language skills outside the curriculum and also gave my son valuable insight on how he could use his languages in future careers. He was supportive and communicative at all times and was clearly invested in my son's success. I would recommend him wholeheartedly. Mrs Morrison
Alan is an outstanding German tutor. His deep passion for the language and knowledge of German culture is evident, adding nuance to the subject whilst teaching. His enthusiasm for German is infectious, making every lesson I had engaging and inspiring. He brings complex grammar to life and tailored his approach to help me navigate the more challenging concepts. He not only taught the German required for the syllabus but went above and beyond in supporting me, even exploring different German opportunities as a career. Alan's compassion sets him apart. He is always patient and willing to go the extra mile to help me. No question was too small, and he was genuinely invested in my success, even contacting me after exams and results to ask how they went. His flexibility was equally impressive, accommodating schedules and adjusting lessons to focus on areas where help was most needed. Alan's ability to make learning both fun and accessible has helped me make tremendous progress in German, and I couldn't recommend him more highly. Student -17 years old Ms Cresswell
Hayley is a fantastic communicator, and her replies are always prompt. She explains ideas really well and engages consistently in every session. I would highly recommend her, particularly if you have any English queries. Simran C
I recently had the pleasure of working with Miss Hayley P on Sherpa and I am extremely satisfied with my experience so far. She is a highly skilled and dedicated tutor who has helped me improve my techniques in analyzing poems for my English GCSE this summer. Her deep understanding of poetry analysis and effective teaching methods made complex concepts easy to grasp. I highly recommend her to anyone who is seeking tutoring for English Literature. Lina N
I just wanted to say once again how grateful we are for your support of Emma and all the kindness that you have shown her. Emma has always looked forward to her lessons with you and found them both fun and engaging. You have made a difference with her approach and confidence to her work and with her overall self-belief. You are a special tutor, and we have been so lucky to have found you. The teenage years are difficult, full of challenges and there is a lot of work involved in A levels. Emma has really valued your input during this part of her life and she is even more focused on her future and determined to find an interesting and fulfilling pathway ahead. Thank you, Frances. Wishing you good health and happiness for 2023. Kind regards Denise. Mrs D Phillips
Francis is a highly productive tutor and got my 12 year-old boy on the right track after tremendous efforts. My son has been learning pretty much within a very short period of time. We hope to come back to him as soon as possible after a break. Mrs Barton
Great tutor, helped my son immensely with his English as he had fallen woefully behind post covid. Now he's so much more confident in the subject thanks to Jeff! Mrs Chettra-mann
My dughter is currenntly being tutored by Jeff through her A level in English Literature (aiming for A*). Jeff is a brilliant tutor, who is always well prepared for the lesson, thinking and planning ahead and open for questions from students and parents. What I (as a parent) like most is the fact that Jeff knows how to challenge my daughter so she can reach her potential. I was very impressed by the first lesson's assesment which Jeff prepared for her, (not taking my assesment for granted), and his detailed feedback. I truly recommend Jeff as a tutor. Mrs Kopacz
Patient with structured approach. Mr Wellappili
Thank you so, so much for all the help and support you've given me through this. I genuinely don't think I could have done it without you. Thank you. Student Dh
Thank you so much Louise you were an amazing teacher and I couldn't have done it without you. Thank you for all the support. Many thanks. Student Gg
Colin has been such a wonderful tutor over the past several months. He has really helped our son improve upon his Economics skills for his forthcoming A-Level examinations. Colin has been accommodating and flexible with timings. He genuinely wants our son to do well in Economics. We would not hesitate to recommend Colin 100% and thank him for all of his invaluable input and knowledge in the hours spent tutoring our son. Miss Bowen
Great communication, explains the work well with my daughter and sets home work Ms Chandler
Very good teacher Mrs Kaur
James is kind and made M feel at ease even though she is quite a nervous student. M liked him and enjoyed her lessons. James found interesting tasks to engage her to encourage her to speak and improve her English. We were very pleased. Mrs Elizabeth
James has been an excellent and kind tutor to my daughter who has achieved her academic scholarship with his help. Thank you! Mrs Kettle
Susan is a great teacher. She helped my daughter prepare for her GCSE exams both for language and literature. She was really dedicated and spared nothing to give the highest level of care. I strongly recommend her. Dr Elmeshad
My son failed English twice and having been in-between schools and doing his GCSEs in COVID he struggled with focus. Anastasia was positive and encouraging, she was honest with him had us when he lost focus. He had work set for him to practice the structure of his questions. This was his forth time and it was really important that he passed. Not only did he pass he gained a higher grade then he expected. Thank you we highly recommend Anastasia Mr Newbolt
I have always struggled with English - it was always my worst subject, so it was where I got my lowest grades and had the lowest motivation. But closer towards the exams, I decided to suddenly reach out and get help, and I wasn't sure it would make a difference. However, after every single lesson with Shelley, my nerves were calmer, and I really felt ready and actually enjoyed it. Amazingly, because of Shelley, I went from barely a 6 to a 9 in English Lit, only losing 20 marks across the whole paper! Would recommend highly. Aleesa Mehmud
My son has made good progress on his writing techniques since Micheal has been teaching him. Michael is a very good communicator as well, which is very helpful to fit my son's busy schedules with sports commitments. We are very happy with him. Sanae
Mrs Meade is a great tutor highly recommend her, she has many years of teaching experience which shows and she really helped my daughter with her English. This has given my daughter the little confidence that she needed. Mr Ahmed

Because we only ever work with qualified and experienced GCSE English teachers, you will always get a highly experienced teacher who is safe, reliable and up to speed with the current curriculum and exam requirements. There is no excellent learning without excellent teaching, and our GCSE English teachers are expected to teach in a way that inspires and motivates. We have over 20,000 talented teachers providing tuition, chosen for their broad range of experience, professionalism, academic specialisms, passion, and dedication to their students. We only ever offer qualified teachers as tutors, as we believe professional teachers provide the highest quality of tuition.

Location
Home Tuition: Involves a GCSE English tutor coming to your home to provide one-on-one instruction. This offers convenience as you don't need to travel. Online Tuition: This can take place anywhere with an internet connection. Small Group Tuition: Typically with between 2 to 4 children, and often occurs in a physical location such as your home, though it can also be online.

Individual Attention
Home Tuition: Offers the highest level of individual attention, as the GCSE English tutor focuses solely on one student. Online Tuition: Still allows for one-to-one attention, but it may be slightly less personal than home tuition due to potential distractions. Small Group Tuition: Offers less individual attention as the GCSE English tutor must divide their time and attention among multiple students.

Cost
Home Tuition: This tends to be more expensive because it involves one-on-one teaching, and the GCSE English tutor is required to travel to your home. Online Tuition: Often more affordable than home tuition as your GCSE English tutor does not need to travel but may still cost more than small group tuition. Small Group Tuition: Generally, this is the most cost-effective option, as the costs are shared among several families.

Flexibility
Home Tuition: Offers flexibility in terms of scheduling and curriculum, as your GCSE English tutor will only be working with your child. Online Tuition: Provides flexibility in terms of location and may offer a wider selection of GCSE English tutors. Small Group Tuition: Lessons will be more difficult to schedule as lesson times will have to fit in with other families.

Interaction
Home Tuition: Offers in-person interaction, which can be beneficial for students who learn better through face-to-face communication. Online Tuition: Provides interaction through video conferencing tools and chat, which can be engaging but may not suit everyone's learning style. Small Group Tuition: Allows for peer interaction, which can benefit collaborative learning and discussions.

The choice between home, online, or small group GCSE English tuition depends on your preferences, budget, and the student's specific educational needs. Each option has advantages and disadvantages, so it's essential to consider these factors when deciding.
