Key Stage 3 English language & literature (per hour)

About this Course

KS3 is where strong English skills are built — and where gaps can quietly grow if left unchecked. These one-to-one online weekly English sessions are designed to support students in Years 7, 8 and 9 across both English Language and English Literature, helping them keep up, catch up or push ahead depending on where they are. Whether your child needs help understanding texts, building their writing skills or preparing for school assessments, every session is tailored entirely to them — giving them the individual attention that a busy classroom simply can't always provide.

Who this is for

• Students in Years 7, 8 or 9 who want extra support alongside their school English lessons
• Learners who are falling behind in English and need to catch up before it affects their GCSE preparation
• Students who are doing well but want to stretch further and build a strong foundation ahead of KS4
• Young people who lack confidence in reading, writing or analysing texts and need a supportive, patient environment to grow
• Parents who want their child to develop strong English habits early and be well prepared for the demands of GCSE English

What you will learn

• Reading and analysing a range of fiction, non-fiction and poetry texts with confidence and accuracy
• Understanding how writers use language, structure and form — the core skills that run through all of KS3 and into GCSE
• Writing clearly and effectively across different text types including narratives, descriptions, arguments and explanations
• Spelling, punctuation and grammar in context, building accuracy in a way that sticks
• School assessment and homework support, with guided feedback to help them understand how to improve
• Building confidence, curiosity and a genuine enjoyment of English that carries them through to KS4 and beyond
