Charlotte S
Friendly English Literature Tutor
With over 10 years of teaching experience and 5 years of online tutoring, I’ve supported children from Reception to Year 6, helping them grow in confidence and enjoy learning. I use a student-centred, supportive teaching style, tailoring every lesson to each child’s needs, strengths and pace. No two learners are the same — and I love adapting my approach to make learning meaningful and engaging.One of the biggest reasons I love tutoring is the individual attention it allows. I get to slow down, focus entirely on one child, and celebrate every bit of progress with them. Seeing a concept “click” or watchi...

Having spent the past five years teaching English in secondary schools, I am a highly qualified and experienced teacher. The majority of my teaching experience has been in leading grammar schools making me an excellent tutor for anyone looking to achieve grade 7+ (GCSE) or A/A* (A Level). However, I also have experience working with lower attaining students and have spent time working on a 1:1 basis with a highly dyslexic student who managed to achieve a grade 7 in his English Language re-sit which is what was tutoring him for.I hold a masters from a Russell Group university in Creative Writing...

Charilaos V
Charilaos has a clear understanding of how specifically the AQA board for GCSE English Literature works. He provides you a structure for writing a paragraph which helps attain all the AOs naturally when writing. He also gives you feedback after writing your own essay which makes it feel very personalized. He has a very strong understanding of the texts studied in GCSE English Lit and if you are looking for a GCSE English Lit teacher I highly recommend choosing him.

Alex R
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

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is aiming for an A in Higher English to get into the University of Glasgow. Can an online tutor really help with that specific goal?
Yes, absolutely. It's a common goal for families we work with in Glasgow. Our tutors specialise in building the critical essay and textual analysis skills required for top grades in the SQA exams. They partner with your child to pinpoint weaknesses and turn them into strengths, giving them the best possible chance of securing their university place.
With the high standards at schools like Jordanhill, we're worried our child is falling behind. How can online tutoring help?
We understand that pressure. An online tutor provides a dedicated, one-to-one space away from the competitive classroom environment. They can focus entirely on your child's needs, reinforcing what's taught in school and building the analytical depth that really makes a difference when competing for top marks.
Is online tutoring as effective as meeting a tutor in person?
We believe it's even more effective for many families. Online tutoring gives your Glasgow-based child access to a much wider pool of specialist tutors from across the UK, not just those who live nearby. Plus, with features like interactive whiteboards and session recordings, and with no travel time, it's an incredibly convenient and powerful way to learn.
What if my child doesn't click with the first tutor we try?
Finding the right partnership is crucial, and we understand that. If the first session with a tutor isn't the perfect fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk. We will happily cover the cost of your first lesson with a new tutor to ensure you find the right match.
Can a tutor help my child appreciate Glasgow's own literary heritage?
Definitely. Many of our English Literature tutors love connecting texts to real-world context. They can help your child explore the works of Glasgow writers like Edwin Morgan or Alasdair Gray, adding a rich, local dimension to their studies that can inspire their essays and deepen their appreciation for the subject.
How do you ensure your tutors are high quality?
We're very selective. Only 1 in 8 tutors who apply are accepted onto our platform. Every tutor is interviewed, has their qualifications checked, and undergoes a background check, so you can be confident your child is learning from a trusted professional.
Can tutoring help with my child's confidence, not just their grades?
Absolutely. For many of the 200,000+ students we've helped, the biggest change is in their confidence. When a subject finally 'clicks' with the support of a dedicated tutor, it can transform how they see themselves as a learner. That belief often has a positive impact across all their subjects.
How much do online English Literature lessons for a Glasgow student cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications, but typically range from £25 to £45 per hour. You can see each tutor's rate clearly on their profile, so you can find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees.
How flexible are the lesson times?
Very flexible. Our tutors manage their own schedules, so you can find someone who can fit lessons in around school, sports, and your family's commitments. Whether it's evenings, weekends, or during school holidays, you can arrange a time that works for you.
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 works directly in your web browser, so there's no complicated software to install.
My younger child needs help with reading, not Higher English. Do you offer that?
We do! We have tutors who specialise in all levels, from building early reading confidence in Primary school pupils right through to university-level literary theory. We also offer support in over 300 subjects, including maths, sciences, languages, and even coding or music.
How long will it take to see an improvement in my child's essay writing?
Every child learns at their own pace, but progress often comes quicker than you might think. With focused, one-to-one attention, many parents notice a change in their child's approach and confidence within just a few sessions. Our goal is a lasting improvement in their skills, not just a quick fix.

Guaranteed.
