John H
Experienced English Literature tutor
Hi, I’m John, I’m 23 and I’m currently studying law at Demontfort University. I have been tutoring now for almost two years mainly in maths from KS1 up to GCSE and have developed the knowledge and skills to be able to tailor my lessons to best suit the student as no one style will work best for everyone. For example, some students may benefit from shorter lessons, some may benefit from taking the lessons at a much slower pace, some may prefer to just dive straight into questions and many other factors that we will be able to identify together and use to customise the lesson to best suit the stude...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

Do your tutors have experience with the WJEC A-Level English Literature specification used in Cardiff schools?

Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors have extensive experience with the WJEC curriculum. You can use our search filters to find tutors who specifically state their expertise in the WJEC specification, ensuring your child gets support that's perfectly aligned with what they're learning in their Cardiff school.

My child is aiming for a competitive course at a Russell Group university. Can a tutor really help with that?

Yes, that's a key area where our tutors can make a real difference. They can help your child develop the higher-level analytical and essay-writing skills needed to move from a B grade to an A or A*. They provide the focused, one-to-one guidance that helps students craft the kind of insightful arguments that admissions tutors look for.

Is online tutoring as effective as in-person for a subject like English Literature?

It really is. Our online platform includes interactive whiteboards, screen sharing for analysing texts together, and document editing for real-time essay feedback. The main advantage is that from your home in Cardiff, your child can access the best A-Level specialists from across the UK, not just whoever lives nearby. This widens the pool of expertise immensely.

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

We know that the right personal connection is crucial. That's why we have our first lesson guarantee. 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 ensure your tutors are high quality?

We have a rigorous selection process and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor is background-checked, interviewed by our team, and has their qualifications verified to ensure they are an expert in their subject. We focus on finding people who are not just knowledgeable, but also fantastic, inspiring teachers.

My child also needs help with their university application personal statement. Is that something you cover?

Yes, many of our English Literature tutors are also experienced in helping students with their UCAS personal statements. It's a great extension of the skills they'll be working on. You can check individual tutor profiles or message them to ask about their experience in this area.

How does online tutoring work for a student living in Cardiff?

It's simple and convenient. Your child just needs a laptop or tablet with a webcam and a stable internet connection. They'll connect with their tutor via video call in our purpose-built online classroom. It means they can have their lesson from their own desk, with no travel required for you.

How much do online English Literature lessons cost?

The cost varies as our tutors set their own hourly rates based on their experience and qualifications. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, so you can find an excellent tutor who fits your family's budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.

How long should a session be for A-Level English Literature?

Most A-Level students find a one-hour session per week is ideal. This gives them enough time to dive into a text or essay question in depth without it becoming overwhelming. However, this is completely flexible and something you can discuss and agree upon with your chosen tutor.

Can we find a tutor who specialises in a specific area, like Shakespeare or modern poetry?

Definitely. Our tutors list their specialisms on their profiles. You can easily search for someone who has a passion for and deep knowledge of the specific texts or periods your child is studying for their A-Levels, ensuring they get truly expert guidance.

Beyond English, what other subjects do you offer tutoring for?

We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! From core academic subjects like maths and the sciences to languages, humanities, and even practical skills like coding, music, and art. Whatever your child needs help with, we're here to support them.

How will I know if my child is making real progress?

Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's development. You'll also see it in their growing confidence, the quality of their schoolwork, and their feedback from teachers. Our goal is to make progress clear and celebrate every step forward together.
