This was a general chat with Alex regarding our requurements. Went very well and we have decided to use Alex going forward. Only issue is that Alex wasn't able to add the session as a chat and so we have been charged - possibly an issue with the app which I am sure we can get resolved

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 course at Durham or Newcastle. Can a tutor really help them stand out?
Absolutely. That's precisely where our tutors excel. They can go beyond the school curriculum to refine your child's analytical skills, develop their critical voice, and help them craft essays with the depth and sophistication that top university admissions tutors are looking for. It's about turning a predicted A into an undeniable offer.
Are your tutors familiar with the curriculum taught at Gateshead schools like Whickham or Emmanuel College?
Yes. Our tutors are experts in the national curriculum, including all major exam boards like AQA and Edexcel used by schools across the country, including those in Gateshead. They can tailor sessions to complement your child's schoolwork, focusing on specific texts, exam techniques, or areas where they need a confidence boost.
How does online tutoring for English Literature actually work?
It's simple and effective. Sessions take place via video call in our purpose-built online classroom, which includes an interactive whiteboard. Your child and their tutor can analyse texts, annotate essays, and work on drafts together in real-time. It offers all the benefits of face-to-face tutoring, with added convenience and flexibility.
What if my child doesn't get on with the first tutor we try?
It's so important that your child feels comfortable and inspired by their tutor. We have a first lesson guarantee, so if it isn't 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 much do online English Literature tutors cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, typically starting from £15 an hour. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and level of study. You can easily filter by price on our website to find a brilliant tutor who fits your family's budget.
My child is a keen writer. Can we find a tutor to help with creative writing, not just exam prep?
Yes, of course! We have many tutors who are published authors, poets, and playwrights themselves. They would be thrilled to help your child develop their creative writing skills, whether it's for personal enjoyment, a competition, or building a portfolio.
How do you vet your tutors?
We're very selective because we know how much trust you're placing in us. We accept just 1 in 8 applicants. Every tutor is interviewed, has their qualifications checked, and must pass a background check before they can join Tutorful.
My child lacks confidence in class discussions. Can tutoring help with that?
This is one of the biggest transformations we see. The one-to-one environment is a safe space for your child to test ideas and ask questions without fear of judgement. This builds their confidence to share their thoughts, which often translates into more active participation in the classroom.
How many sessions will my child need?
There's no single answer – it completely depends on your child's goals. Some students have a few sessions to prepare for a specific exam, whilst others have weekly lessons throughout the school year. You can discuss a plan with your chosen tutor in your first session.
Can we get help for other subjects for our children in Gateshead?
Yes, absolutely. We offer online tutoring in over 300 subjects, from maths and science to music, languages, and coding. You can find expert support for all your children's learning needs, all in one place.
Is online tutoring suitable for A-Level English Literature?
It's ideal for A-Level. The depth of study required at this level often benefits from specialist, one-to-one attention. Our tutors, many of whom have postgraduate degrees, can provide the expert guidance needed to tackle complex texts and achieve top grades.
What equipment do we need for online lessons?
It's very straightforward. All your child needs is a laptop or computer, a stable internet connection, and a webcam with a microphone. Our online classroom is browser-based, so there's no software to download.
