David J
Experienced English Literature Tutor
When it comes to History, I have always loved the subject, leading me to secure my place at the University of Leeds and to follow through my degree and gain a 2:1. While doing so, I had a fantastic time living in Leeds, which is why I came back to live here. My focus was on the British Empire, but having studied History all the way through school and university, my experience with the subject is very broad. For example I studied Britain from 1880-1980 and Nazi Germany at A Level, and American foreign policy and race relations and the Russian Revolution at GCSE. History is one of the most important...

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 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.

Alex R
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 aiming for a top university like Durham or Newcastle. Can a tutor provide the specific A-Level English Literature support they need?
Absolutely. This is exactly where our tutors excel. We can connect you with specialists, some of whom are university lecturers or examiners, who understand precisely what top institutions look for. They can help your child develop the sophisticated analytical skills and critical thinking needed to move beyond the syllabus and craft A* grade essays.
How can an online tutor understand the curriculum my child is following in their North East school?
Our tutors are experts in the main UK exam boards (like AQA, Edexcel, and OCR) used by schools across the country, including the North East. During your first session, the tutor will chat with your child about their specific set texts, coursework, and where they feel they need the most help, ensuring every lesson is perfectly aligned with their schoolwork.
Is online tutoring really as effective for a subject like English Literature, which is all about discussion?
Many parents find it's even more effective! Our online classroom has an interactive whiteboard for analysing texts together, and the one-to-one focus of a video call creates a brilliant environment for in-depth discussion without classroom distractions. It allows for a really focused, personal conversation about the literature.
What if my child doesn't click with their first English Literature tutor?
Finding the right personality match is everything, and we're committed to getting it right. If the first session with a tutor doesn't feel like the perfect fit for any reason, please email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first lesson with a new tutor.
Are your tutors qualified to teach A-Level English Literature?
Yes, completely. We take quality very seriously and accept only 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Many of our English Literature tutors have degrees from top universities, teaching qualifications, and extensive experience in helping students achieve the highest grades at A-Level.
How do you ensure tutors are safe to work with children?
Your child's safety is our absolute priority. Every tutor on our platform undergoes a rigorous vetting process, which includes an identity check and an enhanced DBS background check before they can start teaching.
Can we get help with specific texts, like Shakespeare or modern poetry?
Of course. You can view each tutor's profile to see their areas of expertise and find someone who specialises in the exact texts your child is studying, whether it's 'The Handmaid's Tale', the poetry of Carol Ann Duffy, or a challenging Shakespearean play.
How much does online English Literature tutoring cost for a student in the North East?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, typically starting from around £20 per hour. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and level of demand. You can easily filter by price on our website to find a brilliant tutor who fits your family's budget.
How flexible are the lesson schedules?
That's one of the biggest benefits of online tutoring! You can arrange sessions for times that suit your family, whether that's after school, on weekends, or during the holidays. It's designed to fit around your life, not the other way around.
My child loves creative writing, not just academic essays. Do you offer tutoring for that too?
Yes, we do! Many of our English tutors are also passionate writers themselves and would be delighted to help your child develop their creative writing skills, whether it's for fun, for school, or for building a portfolio.
How quickly can we find a tutor for our child in the North East?
You can start looking right away. Our platform makes it simple to search for tutors, read their profiles and reviews from other parents, and message them directly. Many parents find and book the perfect tutor within 24 hours.
Do you offer tutoring in other subjects besides English Literature?
We do! We have expert tutors across more than 300 subjects, from core academic subjects like Maths and the Sciences to languages, coding, music, and even life skills. Whatever your child needs support with, we're here to help.
