Our subject specialist tutors, many of whom teach in local schools, support students studying the grade 9–1 GCSE courses.
Every student has strengths and weaker areas. Working 1 to 1 with the right tutor builds confidence and improves grades, whether that is moving from a grade 3 to a 4, or gaining that 7 for an A-Level choice.
Many students struggle with how to revise effectively, track their progress and work on exam technique. Our tutors guide them using specifications and past papers, with a clear focus on exam success and improving their current grade.
Andy took the time to understand where things had become difficult for my son and what he needed from a tutor to build confidence, resilience and motivation. Our tutor has made a real difference.
It was important to us that Andy got to know Chloe and then could align the tutors to her learning style. This worked well as not all tutors would have got the best out of her.
I would highly recommend Helen Morriss as a history tutor. She helped preparing our son for his GCSE history exams and was knowledgeable, well paced and our son enjoyed working with her.
I just wanted to give some feedback about how amazing Danielle…of Up Your Grade Tutors, has been as a science tutor to our daughter. Honestly, I couldn’t speak more highly of her – so dedicated, inspirational and thoughtful. She’s made all the difference to our daughter’s grades, and even inspired her to study science at A level. I couldn’t speak more highly of Danielle.
Beverley is doing a fantastic job with {my daughter. She} enjoys her tutoring sessions and says that it’s really helping her.
After the first session my son said it is starting to make sense. Brilliant tutor, worth every penny!
I brought Jane in to help my son after a disastrous mock GCSE result. Jane was fantastic and the got on right away. My son had very little appetite for revision but actually made an effort for fear of letting Jane down.

{My daughter} enjoys her sessions with Michelle. She is kind and happy explains things well – she makes her feel better about her ability. Builds her confidence.

Cheryl rapidly supported our daughter with targeted A Level German skills. We just wish she’d been teaching her at school.
{My daughter} has been tutored by Sam for Year 13 A-Level Psychology for the last 8 months. Sam has been fantastic. He is friendly and makes lessons clear to understand, and most importantly has boosted {her} confidence no end. Her improved mock result was testament to that. She now heads into A-Level Psychology exams with a strong belief she can reach her potential – thank you Sam!
Wow – we have gone from an…E in Physics in lower 6th to a…B in the mocks. John has been so patient & kind, his enthusiasm has been infectious. Thank you so much.
Amazing connection with {my daughter}, finally a tutor that understands her needs, {She} feels much more confident and it’s already reflecting in her practice papers.
She’s fantastic! I had a mental wishlist for a tutor to help my daughter and she’s exceeded my hopes and expectations.
Chris is a terrific Economics tutor, has a great dialogue always is generous with his time. We just wish we had found him earlier!
Rosa is delightful and always gives plenty of really useful information. I feel comfortable with her and would definitely recommend her.
{My son} is really comfortable with John and getting a lot out of the sessions. I’m happy and {my son} certainly feels more supported and positive.
Simon has been amazing! Really knows how to prepare students for their exams, especially for the top grades.
My son says he’s fantastic and helpful, so what else can you ask for?
Starting secondary school is exciting, but the move to individual subjects can feel overwhelming for some students.
Our approach focuses on building strong foundations and confidence, so students can work independently and engage more deeply with their learning.
Working with a subject specialist can ease the transition from primary school and remove early barriers. Our tutors cover core subjects including Maths, English and Science, as well as modern languages and working on study skills.
They explain maths in a way my child can understand, she is patient and encouraging. I have seen a great improvement in ability and now have a child who enjoys maths.
