Lower Level: Beginner's Japanese, Beginner's French, Beginner's Russian GCSE: French, Russian, Japanese, English Language A-Level: English Language, Russian, Japanese Exam Board Experience: AQA: French, English Language Edexcel: Japanese, Russian Languages: British English (native speaker), Japanese (N3 certificate and university level, estimated B2), Russian (university level, estimated B2/C1), French (A-Level) Preferred Student Age Group: GCSE/A-Level (Any) About me: I'm an enthusiastic language student, musician and budding fantasy-sci-fi writer set to graduate this winter with at least a 2:1 in Japanese and Russian from the University of Leeds. During my studies, I've been lucky enough to have the opportunity to help people in Japan and Russia improve their English skills so I understand how daunting languages can be. Whether you're hoping to improve your school grades, preparing for your exams, or just curious about learning a new language, I can tailor our classes to focus on the areas of language you struggle with the most and encourage relaxed communication from the start so you have the confidence to more freely use either your French, Japanese or Russian. I can also aid in English Language, particularly at A-Level.

Hi I’m Chloe! I’m 23 and I’m here to help with all things English! Whether it’s Literature, Language, Creative Writing or even if you just need help with your exam technique- I’m here to help. I have a positive approach and I believe in learning together- you’ll never be judged or put down to getting things wrong, we’ll just go through it together as many times as you need! I have experience with students with SEN and SEMH so can happily adapt your lessons in any way you need and I’m all for a 5 minute tea break when you need it. I look forward to meeting you and seeing how I can help! I graduated in 2025 with a BA (Hons) in English Literature with Creative Writing so I did a little bit of both sides of English! I have since been studying for my MA in Children’s Publishing which is so much fun but lots of hard work so I know a thing or two about study skills, revision techniques and time management.

Hi, I’m Paul. I mostlytutor Maths and Science as well as Computer Science and English as a Foreign Language, which I trained in at Columbia Teachers’ College, USA. Originally I studied for a BA in Natural Sciences. I have been a classroom teacher and tutor for over 15years, in the UK as well as South Korea, Japan and China, and more recently have developed Science courses for a large online learning platform. My tutorials are often centered around structured practice of specific topic areas, with an approach geared toward getting students to speak freely about topics in their own voices. I am happy to tailor sessions with either general revision, exam preparation or new learning and discovery in mind. In my free time, I enjoy tennis, movies and triathlons. Hope to see you soon!

I am a certified TESOL teacher who studied English at college, and law and business studies at university. I spent three years teaching English in Tokyo, Japan - first for a language school and then in business. Since returning to the UK, I have taught for many different companies and also as a private home tutor. I'm used to teaching adults and children of all ages and am accustomed to working towards examinations. As a tutor, it's important that my student feels comfortable and has confidence in my abilities to help them progress so I have a relaxed manner when teaching but with an eye on reaching targets. So we will look at the areas where you need help, look at your existing approach to learning and work out strategies to get you where you need to be. I enjoy writing and sometimes write content for websites. I'm also great at watching tennis - not so good at playing though. I spent lockdown doing a lot of baking with friends online and caught up on watching some of the films that I'd always been meaning to watch. Now that the world is opening up again, I'm keen to do some travelling and hopefully some watersports - two other passions of mine. I look forward to meeting you, to teaching you and to helping you!

I have previously taught English and Maths to children between the ages of 3 and 17, helping children to successfully achieve their goals and surpass their expectations. I am currently studying Psychology at a degree level and also studied it for my A-Levels. In terms of my hobbies, love being creative, for example in my spare time I crochet, paint and draw. I also love quiz shows, such as the Chase and Tipping Point, as I think they're a fun way to learn. Horror films are my favourite genre of film, as I enjoy the adrenaline of being scared. I also enjoy rock climbing and have done so for 7 years. I also have cat called Lolly, whom I love dearly. I am a big animal person, so apologies if she appears on camera! I love teaching and aim to create an engaging and personal experience for my student. The lesson can be led by you, based on your interests and preferences, in order to work together to achieve success! I enjoy teaching in a visual and kinaesthetic way, using colours and diagrams to teach topics. However, whatever works best for you is what we will use. Together we will create lesson plans and tailor the experience to you and your needs. It will be a stress-free learning experience, with an emphasis on how fun learning can be.

How online English tuition can benefit you

English tutoring to improve grades and self-confidence

Studying English at school includes technical aspects of the language such as grammar and vocabulary, and English literature focuses on text analysis and creative writing.

English-related skills such as reading and writing are vital throughout school, regardless of the subject matter. Learning how to communicate your thoughts clearly boosts self-confidence, improves vocabulary and leads to better exam results.

GoStudent English tutors offer one-to-one lessons tailored to your child’s needs, helping them understand where their weaknesses are in their written work and working with them to improve their writing style.

The advantages of studying English

English is an essential subject in the national curriculum. All students are required to pass English exams at primary school and English makes up one of the three core GCSE subjects in secondary school.

Studying for an English and Literature A-level or an undergraduate or master's degree can be hugely rewarding. Not only will you learn a great deal about the language, you will also be introduced to radically different ways of understanding and explaining the world.

An English degree can open the door to a wide range of career opportunities in fields such as teaching, editing, journalism and law. There is also a growing market for teaching English as a second language either at home or overseas, where the demand might be higher.

English tuition at primary school

English tuition at primary school is an excellent way to prepare for the future. Studying reading and writing helps with English language skills in general, and learning about different authors and their works may very well ignite a passion for reading in your child, laying the foundation for study at a higher level.

English exam preparation and English revision classes

GCSE exams are the qualifications students take at the age of 16. GCSE English provides a solid foundation for studying humanities courses at a higher level, and skills taught include writing essays, reading comprehension and text analysis.

If your child choose to continue to study English Language and Literature at A-level, it's extremely important for them to achieve a solid GCSE foundation.

English tutors can provide:

  • Exam technique training
  • Essay writing practice
  • Speaking, listening and vocabulary development

Working with an English tutor on a one-to-one basis boosts confidence and passion for the subject, too.

Finding a private English tutor online

During your free trial lesson with GoStudent, your English tutor will gain an understanding of your child’s strengths and weaknesses and create an individual learning plan that’s uniquely tailored to them.

After the lesson, you can decide which membership model will best meet your child’s needs. The lessons will continue via our practical online platform using video chat and practical digital tools.

Answering student's questions about online English lessons

How much does private English tuition cost?

Prices for private English tuition can be as low as £21.99. The cost of each individual lesson will depend on how many lessons your child takes per week and how long they would like tuition for. Book a free trial session to see how affordable private English tutoring can be with GoStudent.

As well as English, does GoStudent offer private tuition in other subjects?

GoStudent can help give your child support with private English tuition as well as offering tuition for 40+ subjects. Select from a range of subjects including Chemistry, Physics, Spanish. Your child isn't tied into one subject with GoStudent. Maybe your child needs support with English now but as their needs change we can also offer tuition across different subjects.

What are the benefits of private English tutoring for your child?

There are many reasons why parents decide to hire a private English tutor. Some parents fear that they don’t have the knowledge to help their children with their English homework or exam preparation. Others might not have the time to sit with children and work through homework. Our English tutors can take away this stress by helping your child consolidate what they have been learning in school, working through their homework with them and building their confidence ahead of their exams. You can rest easy knowing that our tutors are experts in English and have the knowledge and teaching abilities to not only spark your child’s interest in the subject but also foster a lifelong love of learning. Discover how your child can take advantage of these benefits by booking a free trial lesson.

Can my child take private English tuition online?

With GoStudent your child can get private tuition online from one of our English tutors. Online tuition is a great option for you and your child, meaning you don't have to take your child to a class or cover the cost of a tutor to come to your home. Why not see how private tuition can work for you and your child by booking a free trial lesson.
