Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is aiming for A-Levels at Blackburn College or St Wilfrid's. Can a tutor help with that specific goal?

Absolutely. That’s precisely where our tutors excel. They can focus on strengthening the core analytical and essay-writing skills your child needs to not only secure a top GCSE grade but also to feel fully prepared for the demands of A-Level English Literature at a competitive college.

We're worried a weak GCSE will hinder their chances at universities like Lancaster. How does tutoring help?

We completely understand. A strong GCSE is the foundation for a strong university application. Our tutors help by building deep subject comprehension and sophisticated analytical skills, ensuring your child has the academic foundation and confidence to aim for top northern universities.

Is online tutoring as effective for a discussion-based subject like English Literature?

Yes, many parents find it’s even better. Our online classroom has interactive whiteboards perfect for annotating texts together, and the one-to-one focus means your child gets more dedicated discussion time than they ever could in a busy classroom. It’s a brilliant way to build confidence in articulating their ideas.

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

Finding the right fit is everything. We have a first lesson guarantee to ensure you do. If for any reason it doesn't feel right, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

How do you ensure the online tutors are high quality?

We're very particular. Every tutor is background-checked, interviewed, and has their credentials verified. We only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident your child is learning from a genuine expert.

Are your tutors familiar with the syllabus my child's school in Blackburn is using?

Yes. Our tutors cover all major UK exam boards, including AQA and Edexcel which are common in schools across Lancashire. During your initial chat, you can confirm the specific syllabus and texts your child is studying to ensure a perfect match.

My child also loves creative writing. Do you offer support for that too?

We do! We believe in fostering a love for all aspects of a subject. We have many tutors who are passionate about creative writing and can help your child develop their own voice, whether for personal enjoyment or for specific coursework components.

How much does online English Literature tutoring for a student in Blackburn cost?

Our tutors set their own rates, typically starting from £15 per hour. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and level of study. You can easily filter by price on our platform to find a brilliant tutor who fits your budget.

What technology do we need for an online session?

It's very straightforward. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom runs directly in your browser, so there's no complicated software to install.

My child finds analysing poetry really difficult and it's knocked their confidence. How can a tutor help?

This is a very common challenge, and one our tutors are fantastic at solving. They can break down poetic techniques in a way that makes sense, building your child's confidence one step at a time until they feel able to tackle any poem an exam throws at them.

How flexible is the scheduling around school and other activities?

Extremely flexible. That's one of the biggest benefits of online tutoring. You can schedule sessions for evenings, weekends, or whenever suits your family's routine, without having to worry about travel time. You can arrange times directly with your chosen tutor.

How quickly will we see a change in my child's work?

Every child learns at their own pace, but the one-to-one attention means progress can be rapid. Often, the first thing parents notice isn't just better marks, but a real shift in their child's confidence and attitude towards the subject, sometimes after just a few sessions.
