Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

We're worried about the grades needed for sixth forms like Loreto or Xaverian. Can online tutoring really help my child's GCSE English Literature result?

Absolutely. It's a common concern for parents in Manchester, and we see the difference targeted support makes. Our tutors focus on the specific areas your child finds challenging, from essay technique to text analysis, building both their skills and their confidence. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.

My child hopes to study English at the University of Manchester. Can a tutor help them prepare for that level of study?

Yes, many of our English Literature tutors are graduates from top universities themselves and have extensive experience helping students prepare for degree-level thinking. They can help your child develop the advanced analytical and critical skills that universities like Manchester look for, giving them a strong foundation for A-Levels and beyond.

Is online tutoring as effective as meeting a tutor in person?

We find it's even more effective for many families. Online tutoring cuts out travel time and stress, allowing lessons to fit easily into your week. More importantly, it gives your child in Manchester access to the very best tutors across the UK, not just whoever happens to live nearby. With interactive whiteboards and resource sharing, the quality of teaching is exceptional.

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

Finding the right personality match is so important, and we want you both to feel comfortable. We have a first lesson guarantee: if you don't get on with your first 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 you find the right English Literature tutor for my child?

You can browse our tutors' detailed profiles, which include their experience, qualifications, and an introductory video to get a feel for their personality. You can filter by expertise—for example, a specialist in Shakespeare or modern poetry—and message them beforehand to ensure they're the perfect fit for your child.

My child finds analysing poetry really difficult. How can a tutor help?

This is a very common challenge! A one-to-one tutor can demystify poetry by breaking it down in a way that resonates with your child. They'll use methods that suit your child's learning style to explore language, structure, and imagery, turning confusion into curiosity and building confidence with every session.

What qualifications do your tutors have?

We have an incredibly high standard for our tutors. We accept just 1 in 8 applicants. They are all subject specialists, and many are qualified teachers, examiners, or hold degrees from top UK universities. Every tutor is also background-checked with an enhanced DBS check to ensure your child's safety.

How much do online English Literature lessons for students in Manchester cost?

Our tutors set their own hourly rates, typically starting from around £20 per hour, based on their experience and qualifications. You can see the price clearly on each tutor's profile, so you can find an expert tutor who also fits your family's budget. There are no hidden fees.

How flexible is the scheduling for lessons?

Extremely flexible. That's one of the biggest benefits of online tutoring. You can arrange sessions directly with your tutor for times that work around your family's busy schedule, whether that's after school, on weekends, or during school holidays. It's designed to fit your life.

Do your tutors understand the competitive school environment in Manchester?

Many of our tutors have experience supporting students in highly academic areas across the UK. They understand the pressure to achieve top grades for competitive sixth form and university places and are skilled at building the robust knowledge and exam technique needed to stand out.

We need help with English Literature, but do you offer tutors for other subjects too?

Yes, we do! We offer expert online tutoring in over 300 subjects, from core academic subjects like maths and science to languages, coding, music, and even professional development skills. You can find support for every member of your family, all in one place.

What technology does my child need for their online lessons?

It's very simple. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam and microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our lessons take place in a purpose-built online classroom with a video chat function and an interactive whiteboard, so no special software is required.
