Kader (tony) B
I have been tutoring English Literature for the last 25 years.
I have in particular come to understand the value of sharing learning objectives and success criteria with children. Knowing exactly what is expected and how they can achieve allows children to focus more clearly on tasks.Progression needs to be planned for, so that as children work and explore at their own pace, there is always something else ready to move them on and take them further in their learning. I also believe that differentiation and meeting varied learning styles are key to effective teaching and learning. Work should be set at an appropriate, but challenging, level. When I prepare...

John H
Experienced English Literature tutor
Hi, I’m John, I’m 23 and I’m currently studying law at Demontfort University. I have been tutoring now for almost two years mainly in maths from KS1 up to GCSE and have developed the knowledge and skills to be able to tailor my lessons to best suit the student as no one style will work best for everyone. For example, some students may benefit from shorter lessons, some may benefit from taking the lessons at a much slower pace, some may prefer to just dive straight into questions and many other factors that we will be able to identify together and use to customise the lesson to best suit the stude...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

How can an online tutor help my child secure a grade 8/9 for sixth forms like The Priory Academy LSST?

Our tutors specialise in helping students move from good to outstanding. They do this by focusing on the specific assessment objectives required for top grades, such as nuanced analysis (AO2) and contextual understanding (AO3). They'll work one-to-one with your child to refine their essay technique, deepen their interpretations, and build the confidence to articulate complex ideas – the very things examiners look for in a grade 8 or 9 response.

English Literature can feel so subjective. How can tutoring make it clearer?

That's a very common concern. Our tutors demystify the subject by breaking down exam mark schemes into clear, actionable steps. They'll show your child how to structure their arguments logically, use textual evidence effectively, and articulate their analysis in a way that directly meets the criteria for the highest bands. It becomes less about guessing and more about a skilled, confident approach.

Are your tutors based in Lincoln?

Our tutors are based all across the UK, not specifically in Lincoln. The beauty of our online platform is that it gives your child access to a much wider pool of specialist talent than would be available locally. From your home in Lincoln, you can connect with a Shakespeare expert from Stratford-upon-Avon or a poetry specialist from Edinburgh.

How does online tutoring actually work?

It's simple and effective. Sessions take place via video call in our purpose-built online classroom. It features an interactive whiteboard, file sharing, and tools that make collaborating on texts and essays easy. All your child needs is a laptop or tablet, a webcam, and a stable internet connection to learn from the comfort of your home.

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

Finding the right personality match is crucial, and we want you to be completely happy. If the first session isn't a perfect fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first lesson with a new tutor. We're committed to helping you find the perfect partner for your child's learning journey.

How do you ensure your English Literature tutors are high quality?

We're incredibly selective. Only 1 in 8 applicants make it onto our platform. Every tutor undergoes a rigorous vetting process, including an interview, teaching proficiency checks, and mandatory background checks. We look for experienced educators who are not only experts in their subject but are also passionate about inspiring students.

My child also needs help with Maths for their A-Level choices. Do you offer other subjects?

Absolutely. We have expert tutors across more than 300 subjects, from core GCSE and A-Level subjects like Maths, Chemistry, and History, to university-level topics and even practical skills like coding or learning a musical instrument. You can find all the support your child needs in one place.

Can a tutor help with the specific texts my child is studying for their GCSEs?

Yes, definitely. When you search for a tutor, you can view their profile to see which texts they specialise in, whether it's *Macbeth*, *An Inspector Calls*, or the Power and Conflict poetry anthology. Many of our tutors are examiners themselves and have deep knowledge of the specific exam board requirements.

How much do online English Literature lessons typically cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications, but typically range from £25 to £50 per hour. You can filter tutors by price to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no contracts or hidden fees – you simply pay as you go for the lessons you book.

How often should my child have a tutoring session?

Most families find that one hour-long session per week is ideal for consistent progress and building momentum towards exams. However, it's completely flexible. You might want more frequent sessions in the run-up to mocks or exams, or less frequent check-ins. You can discuss the best plan directly with your chosen tutor.

My child is quite shy. Is online tutoring a good option for them?

Many parents tell us that online tutoring is brilliant for quieter children. The one-to-one setting, from the comfort of their own home, can feel less intimidating than a classroom. It gives them a safe space to ask questions they might otherwise keep to themselves and to build a strong, trusting relationship with their tutor.

How do we find the right tutor for our child in Lincoln?

You can browse our top-rated English Literature tutors, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their teaching style. You can then message tutors for free to discuss your child's specific needs before booking your first session. You’re choosing from the UK’s best, not just who happens to live nearby.
