Maria Sigrid R
Engaging English Literature tutor
At the heart of tutoring is passion for one’s subject; I am keen to engage students through a wide range of materials and learning techniques. In my adolescence, I was exposed to the transformative power of teaching in small groups and realised which effective methods can be used to strengthen analytical and writing skills. Each session will centre on the individual’s needs and requests. I integrate audio and visual materials into my lessons, including PowerPoint presentations. I encourage students to keep lists of questions that guide them through their understanding of various topics. For cre...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is aiming for a top humanities course at UCL or LSE. How can a tutor help them stand out?

Our tutors can provide the specialist support needed to push for those top A* grades. They can help your child develop advanced analytical skills, refine their essay technique, and explore literary criticism beyond the curriculum – all things that help an application stand out to admissions tutors at leading universities.

The competition from schools like St Paul's and Tiffin is intense. How can a tutor give my child an edge?

A one-to-one tutor provides focused attention that's often not possible in a busy classroom. They can identify and strengthen specific weak spots, challenge your child with complex ideas, and build their confidence to articulate their thoughts with flair and precision, helping them perform at their very best among high-achieving peers.

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

You can view detailed tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and read reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific goals. Finding someone your child connects with is the first step to success.

How much does an English Literature tutor cost?

Tutor prices vary based on their experience and qualifications. You can see the hourly rate on each tutor's profile, making it easy to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.

What happens if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?

We want to make sure you find the perfect match. With 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 do you ensure your tutors are safe and high-quality?

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 8 tutors who apply, so you can be confident you're choosing from the very best.

What happens in a typical online lesson?

Lessons take place in our interactive online classroom, which features a whiteboard, video chat, and document sharing. A tutor might work through an essay with your child, analyse a poem on the whiteboard, or practice exam questions together in real-time.

How can tutoring help my child build confidence?

One-to-one tutoring creates a safe space for your child to ask questions without fear of being judged. As they start to master difficult topics and see their grades improve, their self-belief and enthusiasm for the subject naturally grow.

Can a tutor help with the specific texts my child is studying for GCSE or A-Level?

Absolutely. Our English Literature tutors have extensive experience with the major exam board curricula and set texts. You can find a specialist who knows your child's syllabus inside-out to provide targeted, effective support.

How flexible are the lesson times?

Very flexible. You can arrange lessons for evenings, weekends, or during school holidays – whatever works best for your family's schedule. You can easily book and manage your sessions through the platform.

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

While we have experts in all academic subjects, we also have talented tutors who can teach a wide range of skills and hobbies. From learning to play the guitar or piano to mastering coding languages like Python, we're here to support all of your child's learning interests.

How quickly can we expect to see an improvement?

Every child learns at a different pace, but many parents notice a boost in their child's confidence and understanding after just a few sessions. Consistent lessons are the key to seeing significant, long-term improvement in their grades.
