Experienced, qualified English Literature, VR and NVR teacher
Online teaching onlyI am an experienced and qualified graduate teacher at KS2 and KS3 level (up to and including Year 8) with many years' practice of teaching and preparing pupils for entrance exams to independent and state grammar schools.The importance of a sympathetic and patient approach is an essential quality that I have recognised and practised over a number of years.

Definitely a tutor I would recommend for English. Friendly, helpful and assuring for such vast knowledge in English you can identify her in having through the lessons you have with her. She structures lessons well to allow you to engage and be educated at a steady pace where your weaknesses are identified simultaneously, and further improving on it, fortifying your foundation on the subject whilst also gaining more exposure and experience to answering past paper questions.

John M
I was dubious that I would see any benefit or engagement in my son when it came to English but John has managed to reach him in a way that is accessible and enjoyable. My son attends on time, each week and appears to b positively engaged which is a breath of fresh air based on the challenges we have had with him through his whole school career.
I'm looking forward to seeing his continued growth

Charilaos V
Charilaos has a clear understanding of how specifically the AQA board for GCSE English Literature works. He provides you a structure for writing a paragraph which helps attain all the AOs naturally when writing. He also gives you feedback after writing your own essay which makes it feel very personalized. He has a very strong understanding of the texts studied in GCSE English Lit and if you are looking for a GCSE English Lit teacher I highly recommend choosing him.

Brilliant English Literature tutors who you’ll really click with.
Our experienced tutors take the time to understand where each student needs to focus and their preferred way of learning. They make a measurable difference – 90% of all students improve by at least one grade.
My child is aiming for a competitive sixth form in Bristol. Can a tutor help them secure a top grade in English Literature?
Absolutely. This is exactly where we can help. A specialist tutor can focus on the specific skills needed to turn a grade 6 into a 7 or 8 at GCSE. They'll work on everything from essay structure to textual analysis, giving your child the tools and confidence to meet the high standards set by Bristol's top schools and sixth forms.
We're hoping for the University of Bristol. How can A-Level English Literature tutoring support that application?
A-Level tutoring goes beyond just the syllabus. For a student aiming for a prestigious university like Bristol, a tutor can help them develop the sophisticated critical thinking and analytical voice that admissions tutors look for. They can help prepare for interviews and foster a deeper passion for the subject that shines through in their personal statement.
Is online tutoring really as effective as meeting a tutor in person?
Yes, and for many families in Bristol, it's even better. Online lessons are just as interactive, using whiteboards, screen sharing, and messaging. The main advantage is access; your child can connect with the perfect subject specialist from anywhere in the UK, not just who happens to live nearby. Plus, the convenience of learning from home saves you time and travel stress.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first English Literature tutor?
Finding the right personality match is essential. We have a first lesson guarantee to ensure you do. If you don't get on with your first tutor for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.
How do you find the right English Literature tutor for my child?
You can use our search filters to find tutors with specific experience, such as GCSE exam boards or A-Level texts. You can read their profiles, watch their intro videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few to find the one who feels like the best fit for your child's learning style and personality.
What qualifications do your English Literature tutors have?
Our tutors come from a wide range of excellent backgrounds. Many are qualified teachers, experienced examiners, or hold degrees in English Literature from top UK universities. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply. You can view each tutor's full qualifications on their profile.
How much does online English Literature tutoring for a student in Bristol cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and level of study (e.g., GCSE vs. A-Level). Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. There are no hidden fees, so you can easily find a brilliant tutor who fits your budget.
How flexible are the lesson times?
Very flexible. That's one of the biggest benefits of online tutoring. Our tutors offer sessions during evenings, weekends, and school holidays, so you can schedule lessons around school, sports, and other family commitments without any hassle.
Can a tutor help my child connect with Bristol's literary history?
Many of our tutors love to make learning relevant! If your child is interested, a tutor could certainly help them explore the works of poets with Bristol connections, like Coleridge and Southey, connecting their local environment to the broader themes they're studying in class.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Tutors provide regular feedback, and you can message them at any time to discuss your child's progress. The clearest signs, though, are often seen at home – in their growing confidence, their willingness to tackle homework, and eventually, in their improved school reports and exam results.
My child also needs help with Maths. Do you offer tutors for other subjects?
Yes, we do! We have expert online tutors across more than 300 subjects, from core academic subjects like Maths, Chemistry, and History to languages, music, and even coding. You can find all the support your child needs in one place.
What equipment do we 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 is browser-based, so there's no complicated software to download.
