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 at a very academic school in Kingston. Can a tutor really help them push for an A* in A-Level English Literature?
Absolutely. This is exactly where our tutors excel. They specialise in moving students from a solid understanding to a sophisticated, analytical one. They can provide the focused, one-to-one attention needed to refine essay technique, explore complex critical theories, and build the confidence required to achieve the very top grades.
We're aiming for competitive humanities courses at universities like UCL or King's. How can tutoring support this?
Our English Literature tutors, many of whom are graduates from top universities themselves, understand what admissions tutors are looking for. They help students develop the high-level analytical and argumentative skills that shine through in personal statements and interviews, giving your child a distinct advantage in their application.
Is online tutoring as effective for a discussion-based subject like English Literature?
Yes, completely. Our online classroom is designed for interactive learning, with features like a shared whiteboard perfect for analysing texts together. The one-to-one format allows for deep, focused discussions that might not always be possible in a busy classroom, making it incredibly effective for developing critical thinking.
How are your English Literature tutors vetted?
We're incredibly selective. Every tutor is background-checked and interviewed by a member of our team to assess their subject expertise and teaching style. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from a true specialist.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
It's so important that your child feels comfortable and inspired. If the first session with a tutor isn't the perfect fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk. We will cover the cost of your first lesson with a new tutor to ensure you find the right match.
We live in Kingston upon Thames. Does this mean we can only choose from tutors based in London?
Not at all! That's the biggest advantage of online tutoring. Your child in Kingston upon Thames can connect with the UK's best English Literature specialists, whether they're based in Edinburgh, Manchester, or Cambridge. You get a far wider choice of exceptional tutors.
My daughter loves English but wants to explore creative writing. Do you offer that?
We do! Many of our English tutors are also experienced creative writing mentors. Beyond academic subjects like English Literature and Maths, we offer tutoring in a huge range of skills and hobbies, from learning a musical instrument to coding.
How much do online English Literature lessons typically cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and level of study (e.g., A-Level vs. GCSE). You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile. There are no hidden fees or contracts, so you have complete control.
What technology does my child need for their online sessions?
It's very simple. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam and microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom runs directly in your web browser, so there's no complicated software to install.
Can a tutor help my son connect with texts that feel a bit dated or irrelevant?
Definitely. A great tutor can bring any text to life by connecting it to modern themes, ideas, and even local contexts. For instance, they could explore the social structures in a Jane Austen novel and compare them to the world your son knows, making the literature feel immediate and relevant.
How flexible is scheduling? My child has a lot of extracurricular activities.
Our tutors offer fantastic flexibility. You can view their individual availability on their profiles and schedule sessions at times that fit around your family's busy life – whether that's after school, on weekends, or during holidays. You're in complete control.
How quickly can we expect to see an improvement in my child's confidence and work?
Every child learns at their own pace, but many parents tell us they see a change in their child's confidence after just a few sessions. The consistent, personalised support helps them feel more capable, which quickly translates into stronger, more insightful work in class.
