I inspire my students to think creatively about language and imagery and to visualise literary concepts in a way they understand. I give students practical knowledge about writing techniques and accurate use of language.

I seek to set up frameworks and questions that prompt students to use the knowledge they already have and to keep building their learning.

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 hoping to apply to the University of Sheffield. Can a tutor help with that?
Absolutely. Many of our English Literature tutors have experience helping students with their university applications, including personal statements. They can help your child articulate their passion for the subject in a way that will appeal to admissions tutors at competitive universities like Sheffield.
With the high standards at schools like Tapton and Silverdale, can a tutor help my child keep up?
Yes, this is one of the key benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A private tutor can work at your child's pace, reinforcing topics covered in class and providing extra support for the challenging jump from GCSE to A-Level, ensuring they don't fall behind in a competitive environment.
How do I choose the right English Literature tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles to see their experience, qualifications, and read reviews from other parents. We recommend watching their introduction videos and messaging a few to find someone your child will connect with. A good rapport is key to building confidence and enjoying learning.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. That's why we have a first lesson guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How does online tutoring actually work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. It's a simple, effective, and convenient way for your child to get expert help from the comfort of your home.
How do you make sure your tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and has their ID and qualifications verified. We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
How much does an English Literature tutor cost in Sheffield?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and level of study. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, allowing you to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
Can tutoring really help my child's confidence?
Yes, it often makes the biggest difference. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might be shy about in class. As they see their understanding grow, their confidence in their own abilities grows with it.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or guitar?
We offer tutoring for a huge range of subjects and skills beyond the school curriculum. From learning hobbies like playing the guitar or piano, to professional skills like coding, we have expert tutors who can help your child explore their passions.
How quickly can we get started?
You can find and message tutors straight away. Many tutors respond within a few hours, and you could have your child's first lesson booked in for as early as tomorrow.
How long are the tutoring sessions?
The standard session length is one hour, which most parents and students find works perfectly. However, you can arrange different session lengths by discussing it directly with your chosen tutor.
What happens in the first lesson?
The first session is usually a chance for the tutor to get to know your child and understand their learning style, strengths, and the areas they want to improve. It's a great opportunity for your child to ask questions and for you to see if it's the right fit.
