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 attends one of the Southend grammar schools. Can I find a tutor experienced with helping students aim for A* grades?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are highly experienced in helping students achieve the top A-Level grades needed for competitive university courses. You can view each tutor's profile to see their specific experience, including the exam boards they specialise in and their track record of success with students aiming for places at Russell Group universities.
Can a tutor help with the personal statement for a UCAS application to a top university?
Yes, many of our English Literature tutors also offer support with university applications, including personal statements. They can help your child articulate their passion for the subject and showcase their analytical skills, which is crucial for standing out. You can use the filters on our search page to find tutors who specifically mention UCAS or personal statement support.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor we try?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match for your child. 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.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can you help with other skills?
We offer tutoring in a huge range of subjects and skills, not just for school. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding in Python, or even learn a new language for fun, you can find brilliant, vetted tutors on Tutorful.
How do I choose the right English Literature tutor for my child?
Start by reading tutor profiles and reviews from other parents. Look for tutors with experience in A-Level English Literature and the specific exam board your child is studying. Many tutors offer a free video chat, which is a great way for you and your child to meet them and see if it's a good fit before booking.
How much do online English Literature tutors cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You'll see the hourly rate clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or complicated contracts.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our specially designed online classroom. It features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard for analysing texts together, and a space to share documents like essays. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence for their exams?
Confidence often comes from understanding. By patiently working through difficult topics, practising exam techniques, and providing positive feedback, a tutor helps your child feel prepared and in control. This one-to-one attention can make a huge difference to how they feel walking into an exam.
How many lessons will my child need?
This really depends on your child's individual goals. Some students have weekly lessons to stay on top of their work, while others might just want a few sessions to focus on a specific area, like exam revision. You can discuss this directly with your chosen tutor.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed a background check. We are very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
My child is really struggling with poetry analysis. Can a tutor help with that specifically?
Definitely. That's the great thing about one-to-one tutoring. If poetry is a weak spot, the tutor can dedicate entire sessions to breaking down different poetic forms, analysing language, and building your child's confidence in tackling unseen poems.
How can tutoring help my child improve their grades?
By providing personalised attention and tailored lessons, a tutor can address the exact areas where your child needs support. This focused approach helps them understand concepts more deeply and learn effective revision strategies. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
