Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is at Grove Academy and finds Higher English Literature tough. Can a tutor help?

Absolutely. That's exactly where our tutors excel. They are experienced in the specifics of the Scottish curriculum and can provide targeted support for the demands of the Higher English exam, from textual analysis of Scottish set texts to crafting high-scoring critical essays.

We're aiming for a competitive humanities course at St Andrews. Can a tutor really make a difference?

Yes. A strong grade is vital, but so is the ability to think critically. Our tutors help your child develop the sophisticated analytical and argumentative skills that admissions tutors at universities like St Andrews and Dundee look for. They'll go beyond the curriculum to foster a genuine, deep understanding of literature.

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

We find it's even more effective for many students. Online sessions use interactive tools like digital whiteboards to analyse texts together in real-time. Plus, the access it gives students in Dundee to a UK-wide pool of subject specialists is a huge advantage you don't get when limited to local-only options.

How do you ensure your tutors are high quality?

We're incredibly selective. Only 1 in 8 tutors who apply make it onto Tutorful. Every tutor is interviewed by a real person, has their qualifications checked, and undergoes a background check. We choose passionate, knowledgeable educators who are brilliant at what they do.

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

Finding the right personality match is key. That's why we have a first lesson guarantee. If you don't feel the first tutor is the perfect 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.

My daughter loves creative writing, not just analysing texts. Can you help with that?

Of course. Many of our English tutors are passionate writers themselves and would be delighted to nurture your daughter's creative talents, whether she's working on short stories, poetry, or just wants to improve her descriptive writing skills.

How much do online English Literature tutors cost?

Our tutors set their own rates, so there's a wide range of prices to suit different budgets. Prices are displayed clearly on each tutor's profile, so you can find an excellent, affordable tutor for your child without any surprises.

Are the sessions flexible? Our family schedule is really busy.

Flexibility is one of the biggest benefits of online tutoring. You can schedule sessions at times that work for you and your child – whether that's after school, on weekends, or even during school holidays. No travel time means it's much easier to fit into a packed week.

What technology do we need for online lessons?

It's very simple. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our custom-built online classroom has all the tools needed, like an interactive whiteboard, built right in.

Can we get help with a specific text, like a Shakespeare play?

Yes. You can use the filters on our search page to find tutors who specialise in particular areas, from Shakespeare to contemporary poetry. This ensures your child gets expert help on the exact texts they're studying in their Dundee school.

How long does it take to find a tutor?

It can be very quick. Many parents find and book the perfect tutor within 24 hours. You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and message tutors directly to ask questions before booking your first session.

Do you offer tutoring for other subjects besides English?

We do! We have expert online tutors across more than 300 subjects, from Maths and the Sciences to modern languages, music, and even coding. We're here to support every aspect of your child's learning.
