Confirm 1EN0 or English Language 2.0
The table describes 1EN0. English Language 2.0 is a separate specification with different assessment details. Ask the school which course your child follows and confirm the tutor’s experience before booking.
Reading responses
Select evidence that answers the question and explain what it suggests in that particular passage.
Comparisons
Put two writers’ ideas alongside one another. Explain a meaningful similarity or difference rather than summarising the texts separately.
Writing for a reader
Agree the purpose and audience before planning. Choose examples, paragraph order and tone to support that purpose.
A tutor might take a single paragraph from a marked response, discuss what is already effective and work on one next step. Your child can then apply the same feedback to a different passage. This makes the lesson more useful than simply watching an adult rewrite the original answer.
They can. Discuss how the tutor develops ideas, structure and sentence control while keeping your child’s own voice. Bring a draft to identify a manageable starting point.
No. Language focuses on reading and writing skills, including unseen texts. Literature has its own set texts and qualification. Some skills transfer, but the lesson plan should name the subject clearly.
Compare teaching approaches and confirm the specification in a free 15-minute introduction. Explain the school’s feedback and ask how the tutor would turn it into practical next steps.
