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

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.

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 Croydon sixth form like Trinity or Wilson's. How can a tutor help?
We completely understand the pressure. Our tutors specialise in helping students develop the sophisticated analytical and essay-writing skills that these top sixth forms look for. They can work with your child to build arguments that go beyond the obvious, helping their work stand out and demonstrate the intellectual curiosity required for A-Level success.
Is online tutoring as effective as having a tutor visit our home in Croydon?
Absolutely. Many families find it's even better. Online tutoring removes geographical barriers, giving your child access to a far wider pool of specialist tutors from across the UK, not just those who live locally. Plus, with features like interactive whiteboards and session recordings, it's a dynamic and flexible way to learn, all without the travel.
We're worried about finding a tutor who understands the specific A-Level texts my child's school has chosen. Is that possible?
Yes, that's a key advantage of our UK-wide network. You can search for tutors with specific experience in the texts your child is studying, whether it's Chaucer or a contemporary play. This ensures your child gets highly relevant, targeted support from someone who knows the material inside out.
What if my child doesn't click with their first English Literature tutor?
It's so important that your child feels comfortable and inspired by their tutor. We have a first lesson guarantee for this very reason. If it's not the right fit, 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 are your English Literature tutors vetted?
We're very selective. Every tutor is background-checked and must undergo a rigorous application process, including an interview to assess their teaching style and expertise. We only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, ensuring your child learns from the best.
My child enjoys creative writing more than literary analysis. Can you help with that?
Of course. Many of our English tutors are also passionate writers themselves and offer brilliant creative writing support. They can help your child develop their own voice, structure stories, and explore different forms of writing, turning a passion into a real skill.
How much do online English Literature tutors for students in Croydon cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, typically starting from around £20 per hour. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study (e.g., GCSE or A-Level). You can easily filter by price on our website to find a brilliant tutor who fits your budget.
How flexible are the lesson times?
Very. Our tutors manage their own schedules, so you can find someone who can fit lessons in around school, clubs, and family commitments. Whether you need evenings, weekends, or sessions during school holidays, you can arrange a time that works for you.
What technology do we need for an online lesson?
It's simple. All your child needs is a computer or tablet with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is browser-based, so there's no complicated software to download. It's designed to be easy and intuitive.
How will I know if my child is making real progress?
Communication is key. Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's development, highlighting areas of improvement and outlining the next steps. You can also message your tutor at any time to discuss progress and goals. Many parents tell us the first sign of progress is seeing their child's confidence grow.
Do you offer tutoring for other subjects besides English?
Yes, we offer tutoring in over 300 subjects. So if your child needs support with Maths for their 11+, a science A-Level, or even wants to learn a new language or musical instrument, you can find an expert tutor for them right here.
Can tutoring help my child secure a place on a competitive university course?
A great tutor can make a significant difference. By helping your child master the skills to achieve top A-Level grades and encouraging a deeper engagement with their subject, they can strengthen their UCAS application. Tutors can also help with personal statement writing and interview preparation for universities that require it.
