gcse english language

I am preparing to retake GCSE English language in 2025 as a private candidate.
Is there any website which offer free GCSE English course like maths genie and TL maths

physicsandmathstutor. it sounds weird because of the name but its got english, geography, psychology, economics, all the sciences, and computer science stuff for gcse and a level PLUS past papers and all these revision notes and information. (basically it's really good). here's the link for the english page: https://www.physicsandmathstutor.com/english-revision/

another website for books that you study in english (eg jekyll and hyde, romeo and juliet, an inspector calls etc.) you should use sparknotes- they are SO GOOD for analysis and quotes (so is physics and maths tutor but i'm tryna give u a bit of choice 😭). here's the link: https://www.sparknotes.com/

there's also a site called revisionworld- ive only ever used it for past papers, but it has some stuff for english too (i'll link the english language page here, you'll probably be able to find literature): https://revisionworld.com/a2-level-level-revision/english-language-gcse-level

so all in all, pmt (physicsandmathstutor) have past papers, revision notes, all of that and so does revisionworld- but sparknotes is mainly for understanding content and analysis and quotes of english texts. all of them work really well, so i hope that helped!!
