What you’ll learn

  • Reading comprehension and vocabulary building
  • Grammar and sentence-level writing skills
  • Confidence speaking and writing in English
  • About English tutoring

    English tutoring on TutorA is live and 1:1 following the International curriculum, held in 45-min sessions, weekly. Sessions build toward reading comprehension and vocabulary building; grammar and sentence-level writing skills; confidence speaking and writing in English. Every tutor is reviewed by TutorA's team before being matched, and sessions are paced to where a student is actually starting from rather than a fixed group syllabus.

    What this covers

    • spans reading, vocabulary, grammar, and writing
    • literature analysis: theme, characterization, author's choices
    • reading comprehension: argument and implied meaning
    • identifying which specific skill is the gap

    English, as a subject area, covers more ground than any of its more specific siblings on this site — reading comprehension, vocabulary building, grammar mechanics, essay and creative writing, and literature analysis all fall under it, which is exactly why it exists as a broad entry point rather than a narrow one. A student working with a tutor under this general "English" heading might be preparing for a specific class where the syllabus itself blends several of these skills together, or might simply not know yet which particular skill is the actual gap — a common situation, since a struggling reader and a struggling writer often present the same way on a report card even though the underlying problem, and the fix, are different.

    Literature analysis is one area that doesn't have its own dedicated page here and tends to fall under general English: reading a novel or play closely enough to discuss theme, characterization, and an author's choices, then writing about that reading in a structured way. Reading comprehension — following an argument, picking out an author's purpose, distinguishing stated from implied meaning — is another.

    A tutor working under this broader English heading typically starts a first session by figuring out where the actual gap sits, since "my child needs help with English" can mean several genuinely different things, and the sessions that follow are shaped by that diagnosis rather than a generic curriculum applied regardless of what's actually going wrong.
