Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

The local schools in Dorset set a very high bar. Can a tutor help my child keep up and feel confident?

Absolutely. Many parents in Gillingham use our tutors to give their child that extra support. A one-to-one tutor can work at your child's pace, filling in any gaps and reinforcing what they learn in school. This helps them build the confidence to tackle the high-level analysis expected at GCSE and A-Level.

My child is aiming for a Russell Group university like Bristol or Exeter. Can a tutor help strengthen their application?

Yes, a great English Literature grade is crucial for those applications. Our tutors, many of whom are Russell Group graduates themselves, can help your child master the essay writing and critical thinking skills needed to achieve the top grades that will make their university application stand out.

How do I choose the best English Literature tutor for my child?

It's easy to find the right fit. You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs before booking to make sure you've found the perfect match.

How do online lessons work?

All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features a video call, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It’s a simple and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of your home.

Are your tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every tutor and all tutors must have an up-to-date DBS check or equivalent. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.

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

We know that the right relationship is key to learning. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

How much does an English Literature tutor cost?

Our tutors set their own rates, with prices starting from £15 per hour. The price is based on their experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's price on their profile, so you can find an expert who fits your budget.

How can tutoring help my child with their GCSE English Literature?

One-to-one support can make a huge difference. Our data shows we can help improve your child's GCSE results by up to 2 grades. A tutor can focus on the specific texts and skills your child finds difficult, helping them improve their understanding and exam technique.

How long is a typical lesson and how often should we have one?

Most lessons are one hour long and take place weekly, which is great for building momentum. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange lesson frequency and length directly with your tutor to fit your child's needs and your family's schedule.

How can a tutor build my child's confidence?

Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions without feeling embarrassed. As their tutor helps them grasp difficult concepts, you'll see their self-belief grow alongside their grades.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something different?

We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we are experts in core subjects like English Literature, Maths, and Science, we also have brilliant tutors who can teach your child skills like coding, playing the guitar, or learning a new language.

Why should I choose Tutorful?

We're trusted by thousands of families across the UK, with a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 reviews. With over 200,000 happy students and the fact that 90% improve by at least one grade, we’re confident we can help your child succeed.
