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

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 like LAE Stratford. Can a tutor help with the step-up to A-Level English Literature?
This is exactly where our tutors excel. They specialise in bridging the gap from GCSE to A-Level, focusing on the sophisticated analytical and essay-writing skills needed to achieve A/A* grades. They can build a plan tailored to your child's needs, helping them meet the high standards expected by East London's top sixth forms and universities.
We live in East London and hope our child can attend a top London university like Queen Mary or UCL. How does tutoring support this?
English Literature is a key 'facilitating subject' valued by these universities. Our tutors help students develop the critical thinking and articulate arguments that make a UCAS application stand out. By mastering the A-Level course, your child will be in a much stronger position to secure a place on a competitive degree course.
Is online tutoring as effective as meeting a tutor in person?
We find it's even more so for many families! Online lessons offer incredible flexibility, fitting around busy lives in East London without any travel time. More importantly, it gives your child access to the best specialist tutors from across the UK, not just whoever happens to live nearby. With interactive tools like whiteboards, it’s just as engaging and effective.
What happens if we don't click with the first English Literature tutor we try?
Finding the right personality match is crucial, and we want you to be completely happy. If the first session with a new tutor isn't the perfect fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first lesson with an alternative tutor.
Do your tutors understand the educational landscape in East London?
Whilst our expert tutors are based across the UK, many have experience helping students navigate the competitive London school system. They understand the pressures and expectations. The key is matching your child with a tutor who specialises in their specific exam board and learning style, which our online platform makes easy to do.
My child is also interested in creative writing. Do you offer tutors for that?
Yes, absolutely! We believe in nurturing all passions. Alongside academic subjects like English Literature, we have brilliant tutors who can help your child with creative writing, music production, learning a new language, coding, and so much more.
How do I find the right English Literature tutor for my child?
You can use our search filters to find tutors who specialise in your child's level, like A-Level, and their specific exam board. You can read their profiles, watch their intro videos, and check reviews from other parents. It's all about finding the right expert for your child.
How much do online English Literature tutors charge?
Tutors set their own hourly rates based on their experience and qualifications, so you can find someone who fits your budget. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, so there are no hidden costs.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most students have one session a week, but it's completely flexible. You can arrange a schedule that works for your child and their goals, whether it's regular weekly support or a few intensive sessions before an important exam.
What qualifications do your tutors have?
We're very selective – only 1 in 8 tutors who apply are accepted. All our tutors are background-checked and are experts in their field. Many are qualified teachers, examiners, or hold degrees in English Literature from top universities.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
This is something you and the tutor can discuss together. Tutors provide regular feedback, and you'll see the difference in your child's confidence, the quality of their essays, and ultimately, their school reports and exam results.
What technology do we need for online lessons?
It's simple! All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom has all the tools needed for a great lesson, like an interactive whiteboard and document sharing.
