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 at a Wirral grammar school and the pressure for a top grade in English Literature is immense. Can a tutor really help?
Absolutely. We understand the high expectations at schools like West Kirby, Calday Grange, and Wirral Grammar. Our tutors specialise in helping students move from a grade 6 or 7 to an 8 or 9 by focusing on the higher-level analysis, sophisticated vocabulary, and essay structure that examiners are looking for. They provide targeted support to meet these specific demands.
We're aiming for a competitive course at Liverpool or Manchester. How can a tutor help with the A-Level English Literature grades needed?
For A-Level students, our tutors act as university-level mentors. They can help your child develop the independent critical voice and detailed textual knowledge required for an A or A*. This includes honing coursework, preparing for challenging exam questions, and ensuring their analysis is sharp enough to stand out in competitive university applications.
Are your tutors familiar with the specific curriculum and expectations at Wirral schools?
Whilst our tutors are based across the UK, they are all experts in the national curriculum, including the specific exam boards (like AQA, OCR, Edexcel) used by schools on the Wirral. During your first sessions, the tutor will work with your child to understand their specific school's focus and tailor their approach accordingly.
Is online tutoring as effective as finding someone in person on the Wirral?
We find it's even more effective. Online tutoring gives your child access to a much wider pool of specialist tutors from across the UK, not just who is available locally. It's also incredibly convenient, saving you travel time and fitting easily into busy family schedules. With features like interactive whiteboards and resource sharing, it's a truly dynamic learning experience.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first English Literature tutor?
It's so important that your child feels comfortable and connected with their tutor. If it isn't the right fit for any reason, please email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.
My younger child needs help with their maths. Do you offer tutors for other subjects too?
Yes, we do! We have expert tutors across more than 300 subjects, from core academics like maths, science, and history to languages, coding, and music. We can help support your whole family's learning needs, all in one place.
How much does online English Literature tutoring cost for a student in Wirral?
Our tutors set their own rates, with prices for English Literature typically starting from £22 per hour. You can filter tutors by price to find an expert who fits your budget, with no hidden fees or contracts.
What technology do we need for an online tutoring session?
It's very simple. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam and microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our custom-built online classroom runs directly in your web browser, so there's no software to download.
How do you ensure your English Literature tutors are high quality?
We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor is background-checked, and we interview them to assess their teaching expertise and passion for their subject. You can also read detailed reviews from other parents to find the perfect match.
How will I know if my child is making real progress?
You'll see it in their confidence first, but our tutors also provide regular feedback on your child's progress. They'll focus on tangible improvements in areas like essay writing, textual analysis, and exam technique, so you can clearly see the impact of their sessions.
How often should my child have a session to prepare for their GCSEs or A-Levels?
Most families find a weekly one-hour session provides the perfect consistency to build skills and confidence without being overwhelming. However, this is completely flexible and can be adapted to your child's needs, especially in the run-up to exams.
My child's confidence has been knocked by a predicted grade. Can a tutor help with more than just the subject?
This is at the heart of what we do. A great tutor is also a great mentor. They help rebuild confidence by breaking down difficult topics into manageable steps, celebrating small wins, and creating a supportive space where your child feels safe to ask questions. Often, a boost in confidence is the key to unlocking better grades.
