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.

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

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is struggling with the Scottish set text paper. Can we find a tutor who knows the specific texts?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors have specific experience with the SQA curriculum and its set texts, from Liz Lochhead's poetry to the works of Iain Crichton Smith. You can view their profiles and even message them beforehand to find the perfect specialist for your child's needs.
Is online tutoring as effective as in-person for analysing complex essays and poems?
Yes, many parents find it's even better. Tutors and students use a shared digital whiteboard to deconstruct texts together in real-time. They can highlight, annotate, and edit essays on screen, making detailed feedback incredibly clear and easy to follow. It’s a very focused and interactive way to learn.
We're worried that a B at Higher English could stop our child getting into Law at Glasgow. Can a tutor really make that much of a difference?
We completely understand that worry, and it’s a common one. A specialist tutor can make a significant difference by focusing precisely on the skills needed to move from a B to an A. They target exam technique, essay structure, and the deeper analysis that examiners look for, helping your child secure the grade they need for their chosen course.
What if we try a tutor and they're not the right fit for my child?
It's so important that your child feels comfortable and connected with their tutor. That's why we have a first lesson guarantee. If you don't get on with your first choice, 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 tutors are high quality?
We're very selective because we know how much this matters. We accept only 1 in 8 tutors who apply to our platform. Every tutor is background-checked, interviewed, and has their qualifications verified to ensure they meet our high standards.
My child also needs help with Higher Maths. Do you offer tutors for other subjects in Scotland?
Yes, we do! We have expert online tutors across a huge range of subjects and levels, including all the core Scottish curriculum subjects like Maths, Chemistry, and History, right up to Advanced Higher. You can find the support your child needs all in one place.
How much does online English Literature tutoring cost for a student in Scotland?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. This allows you to find an excellent, experienced tutor that also fits within your family's budget.
How many sessions will it take to see an improvement?
This really varies from student to student. Some parents see a boost in their child's confidence after just one or two sessions. For grade improvement, a consistent block of lessons in the run-up to exams is often most effective. The key is consistency, which our flexible online platform makes easy to achieve.
What does my child need for an online lesson?
It's very simple. All they need 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 download.
Can a tutor help with my child's UCAS personal statement?
Yes, many of our English tutors are fantastic at this. They can help your child structure their thoughts, showcase their strengths, and refine their writing to create a compelling personal statement that stands out to university admissions teams.
Do you offer tutoring for other qualifications, like Advanced Highers?
We do. Many of our tutors are experienced in teaching up to Advanced Higher level, providing the in-depth subject knowledge needed for success in these demanding qualifications. You can filter your search to find tutors with specific experience at this level.
My child is really shy. How does online tutoring work for less confident students?
Online tutoring can be brilliant for quieter students. Learning from the comfort of their own home can help them feel more relaxed and open. The one-to-one format means there's no pressure from a classroom environment, allowing them to build a rapport with their tutor and ask questions they might otherwise keep to themselves.
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.
