Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

The grammar schools in Birkenhead are very competitive. Can a tutor help my child aim for the top GCSE grades (8-9)?

Absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in helping students target the highest grades. They can focus on the specific skills needed to move from a grade 6 or 7 to an 8 or 9, such as developing sophisticated analysis and mastering exam technique. In fact, we can help improve your child's GCSE results by up to 2 grades.

My child wants to apply to the University of Liverpool. Can a tutor help with their A-Level English Literature?

Yes, many of our tutors are specialists in A-Level English and have experience supporting students with their university applications. They can help your child deepen their subject knowledge and refine their essay writing to achieve the A or A* grades needed for competitive courses at Russell Group universities.

How do I choose the right English Literature tutor for my child?

You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check each tutor's qualifications on their profile. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs before booking. It's all about finding a great personality match for your child.

What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

We know how important the right fit is. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

How much do online English Literature tutors cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications, but you can set your own budget using the filters on our search page. Tutors set their own rates, so you can find someone who fits your needs and your wallet.

How does online tutoring actually work?

It's simple! All lessons take place in our online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It's a secure and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of your home.

Are your tutors properly checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors has been interviewed and has had their ID and qualifications verified. They also undergo a background check before they can start teaching.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence?

One-to-one attention from a supportive tutor can make a huge difference. By working at your child's pace in a safe space, a tutor can help them overcome hurdles, celebrate small wins, and start to believe in their own abilities again.

How long is a typical tutoring session?

The standard lesson length is one hour, which most parents and students find works perfectly. However, you can discuss arranging longer or shorter sessions directly with your chosen tutor to fit your child's needs and schedule.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or can you help with other interests?

We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we cover all core academic areas, we also have expert tutors who can teach hobbies and skills like learning the guitar, coding, creative writing, or even a new language.

How do I pay for lessons?

Paying for lessons is straightforward and secure. You add your payment details to your account, and we handle the payments automatically after each lesson is completed. You'll never need to deal with cash or awkward payment conversations.

How quickly can we get started?

You can get started very quickly. Many of our tutors respond to messages within a few hours. Once you find a tutor you like, you can often book your first lesson for within a day or two, depending on their availability.
