What is GCSE tutoring, and who is it for?
GCSE tutoring helps students in England, Wales and Northern Ireland, and international students taking GCSE or IGCSE exams, prepare for the qualifications usually sat at the end of Year 11. In England GCSEs are graded from 9 to 1, and each subject follows the specification of an exam board such as AQA, Edexcel, OCR or WJEC Eduqas. The most common tutoring subjects are Maths, English Language, English Literature and the sciences, often in Combined Science or the separate sciences at Foundation or Higher tier. A GCSE tutor fills gaps from earlier years, teaches exam technique for the specific board, and practices past papers with mark schemes so students learn exactly what examiners reward. Tutoring often starts in Year 10 or early Year 11 and intensifies before mocks and summer exams.

How much does GCSE tutoring cost in 2026?
GCSE tutoring rates depend on the subject, the tier, and the tutor's experience with the exam board. Qualified teachers and examiners often charge more, and in-person lessons can cost more than online ones. WantATutor takes no commission, so the rate shown on the tutor's profile is what you pay.
How to choose a GCSE tutor
Tell the tutor your exam board, tier and target grade. Look for someone who uses past papers and mark schemes for that board and can explain exactly where marks are lost. For English, ask how they give feedback on written answers. A short intro lesson, which many tutors offer, is a good way to check the fit.
