Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

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.
