Hello, my name is Scarlett. I am in my second year of studying Law at the University of Leeds. I grew up overseas and did my GCSEs and A Levels in Abu Dhabi. I took Geography, History and English Literature at A Level at a British School. I love these subjects and would thoroughly enjoy helping others learn. I attended The British School Al Khubairat for the majority of my schooling and completed my GCSEs and A Levels there. I am currently in my second year of studying Law at the University of Leeds. I have a Sports Leadership Qualification that allows me to teach/look after children unsupervised, which is something I do in my part-time job(that I have had for three years now). I especially enjoy English Literature, Geography and History as I love essay writing and the subjects themselves, particularly English as I enjoy reading.

Hi! I'm Sarah and I am passionate about teaching and education! The subject areas I tutor at Lower Level, GCSE and A-Level are English (Literature or Language) and History, with specialisms in Shakespeare and Mid 19th - Mid 20th Century literature, and England: 1066-1216. I have 4 years of teaching and childcare experience in a range of settings from nursery to school. In these roles, I have had specific Special Educational Needs and Disability (SEND) experience and training, including 2 years of 1:1 teaching with ASD, ADHD, Dyslexia, and Dyspraxia. I am currently in my final year of my BA Education Studies Degree, studying at the University of Reading. I am happy working with all age groups, with no preference as to age or level of ability. I have a passion for musical theatre and the performing arts, having performed in many shows through school and university! I love reading and music, and have an eclectic taste for both - so I'd love to swap suggestions! Coming from a family of 7 children, a single mum, a low socio-economic background, and a secondary school that was in special measures, I know how tough exams and school can be; With so much pressure, feeling held back from reaching your full potential and feeling as though you're doing it alone, exams and grades can feel impossible! So, I can't wait to share all the tips, tricks, and knowledge I have to help students feel prepared, confident and happy, no matter their needs or background!

Hi there! My name is Omasiri, and I am a second-year LLB Law student at the University of Brighton. I teach GCSE History and Sociology, and I teach English from KS2 to GCSE. For GCSE exam boards, I am strictly AQA only. I believe that teaching should be fun and personalised so that everyone has their best chance at succeeding, as every person experiences and processes things differently. I studied 7 GCSEs and 1 BTEC at The Aylesbury Vale Academy. My subjects and grades were the following: Mathematics (6), Double Science (6,6), English Literature (7), English Language (7), History (7), Music (7), Spanish (7), and a Level 1 & 2 TEC Award in Performing Arts (Distinction* = 9). For A-levels, I studied at a grammar school called Aylesbury High School. These are the subjects I took and the grades I got: English Literature (B), History (B), Psychology (C), and an Extended Project Qualification (EPQ) on The Necessity of the Right to Silence and Diplomatic Immunity to the Criminal Justice System (C). Now I am a law student who finished their first year with a 2:1, striving to graduate with a 1st and go into being a solicitor or work within the legal sector of large business firms.

Emily has been amazing for our daughter. She is kind, patient and listens to her needs. They work well together and the difference in our daughters confidence, enjoyment and ability in Maths is hugely noticeable. Best thing we ever did, just wish we had found Emily and Go Student sooner!

Joe Martin

One of the best decisions we’ve made as a family. Our boy was 3-4 years behind at school who have been completely inept. We had to look outside of state provision in order to give him a chance of literacy and numeracy. The last 8 weeks have seen the most progress he’s made in 4 years. We had a wonderful welcome from Kristian and a simply brilliant teacher in Claire. We then have our designated support manager Adam who is always on hand to discuss any issues. This is a really classy operation. Their people are all on message and highly competent. I feel so great about the improvements my lad is making and the decision I made to engage Go student. We now have the comfort and security of having a 3 year agreement and we feel our son will be light years ahead of where he is now. All power to GoStudent and thank you.

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

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.
