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 London university like King's or UCL. Can a tutor help with the specific A-Level analysis needed for an A*?
Absolutely. This is exactly where our specialist tutors excel. They are experienced in the requirements of A-Level English Literature and can teach your child the sophisticated critical analysis and essay-writing techniques that examiners look for when awarding the highest grades, strengthening their university application.
With the high standards at schools like the Harris academies or Dulwich College, how does online tutoring add value?
We understand the demanding environment of South London's top schools. Our tutoring complements this by providing focused, one-to-one attention that isn't always possible in a classroom. A tutor can work on your child's specific areas of weakness, reinforce their strengths, and build the confidence they need to stand out.
Is online tutoring as effective as in-person for a subject like English Literature that relies on discussion?
Yes, many students find it even more effective. Our online classroom has interactive whiteboards for analysing texts together, and the focused one-to-one environment encourages deep discussion without classroom distractions. Plus, your child can access the best UK tutors, not just those who live nearby in South London.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first English Literature tutor?
Finding the right fit is everything. We have a first-lesson guarantee because we want you both to feel completely comfortable. If it's not the perfect match, simply 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. Every tutor is background-checked, interviewed, and has proven subject expertise. In fact, we only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from some of the best specialists in the UK.
How much does online English Literature tutoring cost for a student in South London?
Our tutors set their own rates, typically starting from £25 per hour, depending on their experience and level of study. You can browse profiles and filter by price to find a brilliant tutor who fits your budget, with no hidden fees or contracts.
My child enjoys reading but lacks confidence in their writing. Can a tutor help with that specifically?
Definitely. This is a very common challenge. A tutor can work with your child to build their confidence step-by-step, helping them to structure arguments, develop a clear writing style, and feel proud of the essays they produce. It's about turning their love of reading into a skill they feel confident using.
What technology do we need for an online tutoring session?
It's simple. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our custom-built online classroom runs directly in your web browser, so there's no complex software to install.
Beyond A-Levels, do you offer tutoring for other subjects or skills?
Yes, we do! We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects, from primary school maths and 11+ prep right through to university-level topics. We also have tutors for practical skills like coding, learning a musical instrument, or a new language.
How will I know if my child is making real progress?
Tutors provide regular feedback, and you'll be able to see the progress for yourself. The most obvious signs are improved grades and test scores, but parents often tell us the first thing they notice is a positive change in their child's confidence and attitude towards the subject.
How flexible are the lesson schedules?
Very flexible. One of the main benefits of online tutoring is that it fits around your family's life. You can arrange sessions for evenings, weekends, or during school holidays – whatever works best for your child's schedule and the tutor's availability.
Are there tutors who understand the specific exam boards used in South London schools?
Yes. Our tutors have experience with all major UK exam boards, including AQA, Edexcel, and OCR. You can check a tutor's profile to see their specific experience or message them before booking to ensure they're the perfect fit for your child's curriculum.
