Secondary English Tuition – Building Confident Learners

English Tutoring in Scotland

Our online 1 to 1 English tutoring helps students build strong reading, writing and communication skills aligned with the Scottish Curriculum for Excellence (CfE). 

Key Areas of Focus

Our online English tutoring programme covers critical areas, all essential for success in the National 5 and the Higher English curriculum.

• Reading: developing understanding, analysing and evaluating skills, core skills that underpin the English qualification framework.
• Writing: developing structure and writing style to feel confident in communicating ideas and demonstrate higher-level thinking.
• Tasks and Exam Prep: Encourage collaborative and independent learning to build confidence, knowledge and skills so they feel prepared and ready for their exam. 

For secondary students, our tutors provide targeted support in creative writing, reading for understanding, analysing and evaluating and exam prep. We encourage a growth mindset, helping students see mistakes as valuable opportunities for progress. Through structured guidance, consistent feedback and weekly follow up tasks, we help learners gain the skills, confidence and resilience to perform at their best in class and in their National 5 and Higher English exams.
