Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

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

Absolutely. Many of our English Literature tutors are graduates from top universities themselves and have extensive experience helping students prepare applications. They can help your child develop the sophisticated analytical and essay-writing skills that admissions tutors are looking for, going beyond the A-Level curriculum to ensure their application stands out.

With the high standards of schools in Surrey, how can a tutor provide something extra?

While Surrey has fantastic schools, a one-to-one tutor provides something different: completely personalised attention. In a classroom, a teacher manages many students. A tutor can focus entirely on your child, identifying specific gaps in understanding and challenging them in areas where they already excel to push them towards an A* grade.

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

It's a really personal choice. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message tutors for free to discuss your child's specific needs. We recommend finding someone who not only has great experience with the A-Level syllabus but whose teaching style you feel will click with your child's personality.

How much does an online English Literature tutor cost?

Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which are displayed clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and level of demand, so you can find an excellent, trusted tutor who fits within your budget.

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

We know that the right fit is essential for success. 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 do online lessons work?

They take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It’s a secure and engaging space where your child can learn from the comfort of home. All you need is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.

Are all your tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has undergone a thorough background check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence in their essay writing?

Confidence often comes from clarity and practice. A tutor can break down the process of writing a high-level essay, from forming a thesis to structuring paragraphs and integrating quotes effectively. By providing constructive, one-to-one feedback in a supportive environment, they help your child feel much more capable and in control.

Can a tutor help with specific A-Level texts or exam board requirements?

Yes. Our tutors have experience with all major exam boards (like AQA, OCR, and Edexcel) and a wide range of set texts. You can use the filters when searching to find a tutor with specific experience in the areas your child is studying.

How long will it take to see an improvement?

Every child learns at their own pace, but consistency is key. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence and understanding within just a few sessions. We find that regular lessons allow the tutor and student to build a strong rapport and make consistent progress.

My child is very busy with other activities. How flexible is the scheduling?

Very flexible. Because our tutors are based across the UK and lessons are online, you have a much wider choice of session times, including evenings and weekends. You can find a schedule that fits perfectly around school, sports, and family commitments.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn a practical skill?

We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or even learn a new language for fun, you can find experienced tutors to help them explore their passions.
