Our Services

Personalised English tutoring for KS3, KS4 and GCSE

At English Results, we offer expert English tutoring that helps students grow in confidence, sharpen their skills, and achieve results. Whether your child is just starting out in secondary school or preparing for final exams, we provide calm, structured support tailored to their needs.

All sessions are delivered by Sophie Birchenall - an experienced teacher, former Head of English, and GCSE examiner - with a deep understanding of the curriculum and what examiners are really looking for.

GCSE English Tuition (KS4)

Year 10 & Year 11 | AQA, Edexcel, OCR

As students approach their GCSEs, the right support can make all the difference. Whether your child needs help securing a pass or pushing for a top grade, our tuition is built around individual learning needs, past paper practice, and examiner insight.

Focus areas include:

  • Literature texts (set texts, poetry, unseen)

  • Language papers (reading, writing, analysis)

  • Exam timing and technique

  • Building clarity, structure and confidence

KS3 English Support

Years 7, 8 and 9: Foundations for success

The early years of secondary school are key for developing the skills that GCSE success will rely on.

We support students in:

  • Understanding key texts and themes

  • Developing strong written expression

  • Tackling analytical writing with confidence

  • Bridging the gap from primary to secondary

Whether your child is finding their feet or ready to be stretched further, sessions are tailored to support and challenge at the right level.
