Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child attends a very academic school in Kingston. Can a tutor match that high standard?

Absolutely. Many of our English Literature tutors are experienced in supporting students from highly academic environments like Tiffin. They understand the level of analytical depth required and can help your child develop the sophisticated essay skills needed to aim for A* grades and stand out.

Can a tutor help with the university application process for courses at places like UCL or King's?

Yes, many tutors can provide excellent support. While they don't write personal statements, they can help your child develop the critical thinking and articulate analysis of literature that top universities like UCL and King's want to see. This builds a strong foundation for both their A-Levels and their application.

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

We understand that the right tutor-student relationship is key. That's why we have our first lesson guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

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

You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check their qualifications and experience. You can also message them before booking to discuss your child's specific needs for their A-Level studies.

How can tutoring help my child feel more confident about their exams?

Confidence comes from feeling prepared. By working one-to-one, a tutor can identify and fill any gaps in your child's knowledge, practice exam techniques, and give them the reassurance that they truly understand the material. It can make a huge difference to how they feel walking into an exam.

How much does an English Literature tutor cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, allowing you to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.

How do online lessons work?

Our online classroom has everything your child needs: video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It's perfect for analysing texts, planning essays, and getting instant feedback in real-time.

Are all the tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor is interviewed and has their ID and background checked before they can teach on our platform. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the best.

How often should my child have a lesson?

Most students have a one-hour lesson each week, but it's completely flexible. You can arrange more frequent sessions during exam periods or less frequent ones as needed. You can discuss the best approach directly with your chosen tutor.

Can tutoring help with the specific texts my child is studying for A-Level?

Definitely. Our tutors can tailor sessions to the exact texts and modules your child is covering, whether it's a deep dive into Shakespearean tragedy or analysing modern poetry. Just mention the texts when you message a tutor.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn something different like coding or music?

We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum! Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding in Python, or even learn a new language for fun, you can find brilliant tutors on our platform.

How quickly can we get started?

You can get started today! Simply search for tutors, find one you like, and message them to arrange your first lesson. Many tutors can start within a few days, giving your child the support they need right away.
