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

We're worried that A-Level English Literature might be the grade that jeopardises a place at Nottingham or Loughborough. Can a tutor really help?

Absolutely. This is a very common concern for parents in the East Midlands, and it's exactly where our tutors excel. They are experts at demystifying mark schemes, teaching precise essay techniques, and building the analytical skills needed to turn a B into an A or A*. They provide a clear strategy for success in what can feel like a very subjective subject.

Are your tutors familiar with the specific pressures students in the East Midlands face, like the Lincolnshire grammar school system?

Whilst our tutors are based across the UK, they have extensive experience supporting students from all educational backgrounds, including selective grammar school environments. They focus on the individual needs of your child and the specific demands of their exam board, ensuring the support they provide is perfectly tailored to their situation.

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

Yes, and in many ways, it's even better. Our online classroom has interactive whiteboards for analysing texts together, easy file sharing for essays, and session recordings for revision. Crucially, it gives your child in the East Midlands access to a far wider pool of specialist A-Level tutors than would be available locally, ensuring they find the perfect match.

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

Finding the right personality match is essential, and we want you both to feel comfortable. If the first session isn't a perfect fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first lesson with a new tutor. It's that simple.

How are your English Literature tutors vetted?

We're incredibly selective. Every tutor is background-checked, interviewed by a member of our team, and has their academic and teaching credentials verified. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the best in the UK.

My child also needs help with A-Level History. Can we find a tutor for that too?

Of course. We have expert tutors across more than 300 subjects, from core A-Levels like History and Maths to university-level topics and practical skills like learning a musical instrument. You can find all the support your child needs right here.

How much does online English Literature tutoring cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and level of study, starting from around £20 per hour. Each tutor sets their own rates, and you can easily filter by price on our website to find a brilliant tutor who fits your budget.

How long is a typical tutoring session?

Most sessions are one hour long, which is usually ideal for maintaining focus and making significant progress. However, you can arrange longer or shorter sessions directly with your tutor to fit your child's schedule and concentration span.

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 online classroom is browser-based, so there's no complicated software to download.

Can a tutor help my child connect their studies to local literary figures like D.H. Lawrence?

Many of our tutors love to make learning more relevant by exploring local context. If this is something your child is interested in, you can mention it when messaging tutors. They can often incorporate figures from the East Midlands' rich literary heritage into lessons to bring the subject to life.

How quickly can we find a tutor and start lessons?

You can find and message tutors straight away. Many tutors reply within a few hours, and it's often possible to have your first session booked within 24-48 hours, providing the support your child needs without delay.

Do tutors cover specific exam boards like AQA, OCR, or Edexcel?

Yes. Tutors list the specific exam boards they specialise in on their profiles. This is crucial at A-Level, as they'll be familiar with the exact assessment objectives, exam formats, and set texts your child is studying.
