Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is aiming for BHASVIC or Varndean. Can a tutor help with the specific GCSE English Literature grades they need?

Absolutely. We understand how competitive entry to Brighton's top sixth form colleges is. Our tutors can focus specifically on the exam board your child is studying, helping them master essay technique, textual analysis, and time management to target the grades they need for a strong application.

With the University of Sussex on our doorstep, can tutoring help prepare my child for a future humanities degree?

Yes, it’s the perfect preparation. A great English Literature tutor does more than just teach the curriculum; they help your child develop the critical thinking, analytical, and argumentative skills that are essential for A-Level success and are highly valued in undergraduate courses at universities like Sussex.

Is online tutoring as effective as meeting someone in person in Brighton?

Many families find it even more effective. Online tutoring removes travel time and stress, and it gives your child in Brighton access to a much wider pool of specialist tutors from across the UK, not just who happens to live nearby. Our interactive online classroom makes lessons just as engaging and collaborative as being in the same room.

What if my child doesn't click with the first English Literature tutor we try?

Finding the right personality fit is so important, and we want you both to feel comfortable. If the first session isn't quite right, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk, and we will cover the cost of your first lesson with a new tutor.

My child has lost all confidence in English. Can a tutor really help?

This is one of the main reasons parents come to us. A great tutor can completely change a child's relationship with a subject. By providing a safe space to ask questions and by celebrating small wins, they can rebuild self-belief piece by piece, often with truly transformative results.

How are your tutors vetted?

We're incredibly selective because your child deserves the best. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor is interviewed by a subject specialist, DBS checked, and has their qualifications and references verified to ensure they are an expert in their field.

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

Our tutors set their own rates, with prices for GCSE English Literature support typically starting from around £25 per hour. You can filter tutors by price on our website to find an expert who fits your budget, with no hidden fees or contracts.

What technology does my child need for an online lesson?

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

How often should my child have a lesson to see progress?

For most students, a one-hour session each week is ideal for making consistent progress towards their goals. However, this is completely flexible. You can arrange sessions with your tutor as frequently as you need, especially in the run-up to exams.

Can a tutor help with specific texts my child is studying, like Shakespeare or modern poetry?

Yes, absolutely. You can browse tutor profiles to find specialists in particular areas, whether it's Shakespeare, 19th-century novels, or modern poetry. They can provide expert guidance tailored to the exact texts and requirements of your child's curriculum.

Are there tutors who understand the Brighton school system?

Whilst our tutors are based across the UK, many have extensive experience supporting students in highly competitive educational environments like Brighton's. They are adept at helping students build the specific skills and confidence needed to stand out and succeed in their college applications.

Beyond English, my child is also interested in creative writing. Do you offer that?

We do! Many of our English tutors are also passionate creative writers and can provide wonderful mentoring. We also offer tutoring in a huge range of subjects, from core academics like maths and science to hobbies and skills like music production, coding, and art.
