Stephen M
Effective English Literature tutor
I am friendly, approachable and experience tutor in Literature, Languages and Humanities. I started tutoring soon after finishing my Joint Honours degree in English and French at Magdalen College, Oxford, but fortunately I found that my education had only just started! Therefore, I have spent over a decade now working with students - both in state and private education - in French, English Literature, Classics and History of Art. Tutoring normally from Key Stage 3 to Key Stage 5, specialising in GCSEs and A levels, I would say that my lessons are usually planned collaboratively. I take the student’s l...

John M
I was dubious that I would see any benefit or engagement in my son when it came to English but John has managed to reach him in a way that is accessible and enjoyable. My son attends on time, each week and appears to b positively engaged which is a breath of fresh air based on the challenges we have had with him through his whole school career.
I'm looking forward to seeing his continued growth

Charilaos V
Charilaos has a clear understanding of how specifically the AQA board for GCSE English Literature works. He provides you a structure for writing a paragraph which helps attain all the AOs naturally when writing. He also gives you feedback after writing your own essay which makes it feel very personalized. He has a very strong understanding of the texts studied in GCSE English Lit and if you are looking for a GCSE English Lit teacher I highly recommend choosing him.

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 is aiming for a humanities course at a university like LSE or UCL. Can a tutor help with this specific goal?
Absolutely. This is where our tutors excel. They can help your child develop the high-level analytical and essay-writing skills that these competitive courses look for. Tutors can work with them on crafting nuanced arguments and demonstrating the kind of critical thinking that makes a university application stand out.
The standards at schools like St Paul's are incredibly high. Can online tutoring really make a difference?
Yes, it can make a significant difference. Online tutoring provides focused, one-to-one attention that can be hard to get in a busy classroom. A tutor can deconstruct your child's specific essays, work on their individual weaknesses, and push them to achieve the sophisticated analysis required at London's top independent schools.
How does online tutoring work for a subject like English Literature?
It works brilliantly. Lessons happen via video call, using an interactive whiteboard where your child and their tutor can analyse texts, annotate poems, and structure essays together in real-time. It's just as effective as in-person, but with the added convenience of learning from home and accessing a wider range of specialist tutors from across the UK.
Are your tutors familiar with the A-Level English Literature curriculum?
Yes. Many of our tutors are subject specialists with extensive experience in the AQA, Edexcel, and OCR A-Level specifications. You can view each tutor's profile to see their specific expertise and find someone who is a perfect match for the texts and exams your child is preparing for.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor we try?
We know that the right fit is crucial for success. If for any reason you don't get on with your first tutor, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk. We will happily cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor to ensure you find the perfect match.
How much do English Literature tutors for students in West London cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, typically starting from around £25 per hour. You can browse tutors' profiles to see their experience, qualifications, and pricing, allowing you to find an expert who fits your family's budget.
My child finds analysing poetry really difficult. Can a tutor help with that?
Definitely. Poetry can be one of the trickiest areas. A one-to-one tutor can break down poetic devices, themes, and structures in a way that finally makes sense, building your child's confidence and giving them a clear method for approaching any poem in an exam.
Can we get a tutor for a subject other than English Literature?
Of course. We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects, from core academic areas like maths and the sciences to languages, music, coding, and even university admissions support. Whatever your child needs help with, we have an expert tutor who can support them.
How quickly can we find a tutor and start lessons?
You can start very quickly. Many of our tutors are available to start within a few days. Simply use our search filters to find tutors with immediate availability, send them a message, and you can arrange your first online lesson at a time that works for you.
Do you only offer tutoring for A-Level students?
Not at all. We have tutors who specialise in all levels, from KS3 and GCSE preparation right through to degree-level study. Whether your child needs help building foundational skills or preparing for their final exams, we can connect you with the right support.
How do we know the tutors are properly vetted?
We take safety and quality very seriously. Every tutor on our platform has been through a rigorous selection process, including an interview and a background check. In fact, we only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the best.
Can a tutor help my child with their wider reading and cultural knowledge?
Yes, this is a great way to use a tutor. They can recommend texts, discuss ideas beyond the curriculum, and even link their studies to London's incredible literary history and theatre scene, helping to build the passion and broader context that impresses university admissions tutors.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
If things aren’t right with your first lesson just let us know. We’ll pay for
your next lesson with a new tutor – and even help you find them.
