I have a BA (hons) in Primary Education from Oxford Brookes University. I have 13 years teaching experienceteaching children from Foundation Stage to Year 6.

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is aiming for a top Russell Group university like Oxbridge or UCL. Can a tutor help with this specific goal?

Absolutely. Many of our English Literature tutors are graduates from these top universities themselves and have extensive experience in helping students prepare successful applications. They can help your child develop the high-level analytical and essay-writing skills that admissions tutors are looking for.

We live in the South-East where school competition is intense. Do your tutors understand this pressure?

Yes, they do. Many of our tutors are based in the South-East or have experience with its highly competitive academic environment. They understand the pressure on students aiming for grammar schools and top comprehensives and can provide targeted support to help your child feel confident and prepared.

How do I choose the right English Literature tutor for my child?

You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message tutors directly to discuss your child's needs before booking. This helps you find someone with the right experience and a teaching style that will click with your child.

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

We know how important the right fit is. That's why we have our 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 can a tutor specifically help with English Literature essay writing?

A tutor can break down the whole process, from planning and structuring an argument to selecting the best quotes and refining language. They provide instant feedback and work through examples with your child, helping them build a clear, confident writing style.

How much does an English Literature tutor cost?

Our tutors set their own prices based on their experience, typically ranging from £25 to £50 per hour. You can filter by price to find an expert tutor who fits your family's budget, with no hidden fees.

Are your tutors properly vetted?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and must pass a rigorous application process. We only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.

How does online tutoring work?

It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing tools. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.

How quickly can we expect to see results?

Every child learns at their own pace, but our tailored, one-to-one approach is designed for progress. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade, and many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence after just a few sessions.

Can tutoring help my child build confidence?

Definitely. For many students, a lack of confidence is the biggest barrier to success. A great tutor provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without fear of judgement, helping them to believe in their own abilities.

What happens in a typical English Literature tutoring session?

Every session is different because it's tailored to your child. A tutor might spend the time working through a specific text your child is studying, practising exam techniques, or helping them plan and draft an important essay.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

While we love helping students with subjects like English Literature, we also have amazing tutors for a huge range of other skills. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or speak a new language, we can help.
