John M
I was dubious that I would see any benefit or engagement in my son when it came to English but John has managed to reach him in a way that is accessible and enjoyable. My son attends on time, each week and appears to b positively engaged which is a breath of fresh air based on the challenges we have had with him through his whole school career.
I'm looking forward to seeing his continued growth

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.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is at a very competitive North London school. Can a tutor really help them stand out?
Absolutely. We hear this from many North London parents. Our tutors specialise in moving beyond the curriculum to develop a student's unique analytical voice. They act as mentors, pushing students to develop sophisticated arguments that help them shine, whether that's in the classroom at a school like Fortismere or in their university applications.
Can a tutor help with a personal statement for a top London university like UCL or King's?
Yes, many of our English Literature tutors have extensive experience helping students craft compelling personal statements. They can help your child articulate their passion for the subject, showcase their critical thinking skills, and present a narrative that captures the attention of admissions tutors.
Is online tutoring as effective as in-person for a subject like English Literature?
We find it's even more effective for many. Our online classroom has interactive whiteboards perfect for annotating texts together, and screen sharing allows for instant analysis of essays and resources. Crucially, it gives your child in North London access to a far wider pool of specialist tutors from across the UK, not just whoever is local.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
It's so important that your child feels comfortable and inspired by their tutor. We get that. If for any reason the first lesson isn't the right fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.
How do you ensure your English Literature tutors are high quality?
We're incredibly selective. Only 1 in 8 applicants make it onto Tutorful. Every tutor is background-checked, interviewed, and has proven expertise in their subject. We look for passionate educators who know how to build confidence and make learning click.
Can we find a tutor who specialises in a specific A-Level text or exam board?
Yes. You can use our filters to search for tutors with experience in specific texts, poets, or exam boards like AQA, Edexcel, and OCR. Many tutors list their areas of expertise on their profiles, so you can find the perfect match for your child's needs.
How much do online English Literature lessons cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, typically starting from around £25 per hour. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and level of study. You can browse profiles and compare prices transparently before you book, ensuring you find someone great who fits your budget.
How often should my child have tutoring for their A-Levels?
Most A-Level students find a one-hour session per week is ideal. This provides consistent support to stay on top of coursework, refine essay technique, and prepare for exams without feeling overwhelmed. You can always adjust the frequency with your tutor as exams get closer.
Do you offer tutoring for other subjects besides English?
Yes, we do! From maths and sciences to modern languages, history, and even skills like coding or musical instruments, we have expert tutors across more than 300 subjects. It's a great way to support all of your child's learning in one place.
What technology do we need for online lessons?
It's very simple. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our bespoke online classroom runs directly in your web browser, so there's no complicated software to download.
Can my child get help with creative writing too?
Definitely. Many of our English tutors are also passionate writers themselves and offer brilliant support for creative writing. Whether your child wants to improve their descriptive writing for an exam or just explore their own stories, you can find a tutor to inspire them.
How flexible is scheduling? We have a very busy timetable.
That's one of the biggest benefits of online tutoring. Tutors offer sessions during evenings, weekends, and even holidays. You can see each tutor's availability on their profile and book times that fit perfectly around school, clubs, and family life in North London.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
If things aren’t right with your first lesson just let us know. We’ll pay for
your next lesson with a new tutor – and even help you find them.
