Phil R
Bringing English Literature to Life
I have a strong, passionate and extensive interest in History. I believe that rather than it be a stodgy subject full of dates and events, it’s actually a living thing as it’s about people, how they thought what they thought and why they thought it and how all that impacts us today. My specialist interest lies in 19th and 20th Century History particularly the First World War - I visit the battlefields of France and Belgium at least twice a year. It's something I think anyone should undertake at least just once to try and appreciate the magnitude of what took place there - it's a moving experience. I a...

David J
Experienced English Literature Tutor
When it comes to History, I have always loved the subject, leading me to secure my place at the University of Leeds and to follow through my degree and gain a 2:1. While doing so, I had a fantastic time living in Leeds, which is why I came back to live here. My focus was on the British Empire, but having studied History all the way through school and university, my experience with the subject is very broad. For example I studied Britain from 1880-1980 and Nazi Germany at A Level, and American foreign policy and race relations and the Russian Revolution at GCSE. History is one of the most important...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is finding the jump from GCSE to A-Level English Literature really tough at their school in Yorkshire. Can a tutor help?

Absolutely. This is one of the most common reasons parents in Yorkshire and the Humber come to us. The step up in critical analysis and independent thinking is significant. Our tutors specialise in guiding students through this transition, focusing on how to build deeper arguments and analyse texts in the way A-Level examiners expect.

We're aiming for a top Russell Group university like York or Leeds. Can a tutor really make a difference?

Yes, they can. Securing an A or A* in a facilitating subject like English Literature is often crucial. A tutor provides one-to-one attention to refine essay technique, deepen textual understanding, and build the analytical skills needed to hit those top grades, strengthening their university application significantly.

Is online tutoring as effective as in-person for a discussion-based subject like English Literature?

It is, and in many ways, it's better. Our online classroom has an interactive whiteboard for analysing texts together, and the focused one-to-one video environment is perfect for in-depth discussion. Plus, your child in Yorkshire and the Humber can connect with a UK-leading specialist, not just a tutor who happens to live locally.

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

We know that the right fit is everything. That's why we have our first lesson guarantee. If you don't get on with your first tutor for any reason, just 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 English Literature tutors are qualified for A-Level?

We have a rigorous selection process, accepting only 1 in 8 applicants. Many of our tutors are qualified teachers, examiners, or hold degrees in English Literature from top universities. You can view each tutor's full profile, including their experience and qualifications, to find the perfect match for your child's needs.

Can a tutor help my child explore Yorkshire's own literary heritage?

Many of our tutors would love to. If your child is studying a local author like the Brontës, Ted Hughes, or Alan Bennett, finding a tutor with a passion for them can bring the subject to life. It’s a wonderful way to connect their studies to the rich culture on their doorstep.

How flexible are the lesson schedules?

Extremely flexible. You can browse tutors based on their availability and find someone who fits around your family's commitments, whether it's evenings, weekends, or during school holidays. Because it's all online, you save on travel time too, making it much easier to fit into a busy week.

How much do online English Literature lessons cost for a student in Yorkshire and the Humber?

Our tutors set their own hourly rates, typically starting from around £25. The price is based on their experience and level of expertise. You can filter tutors by price on our website to find an expert who fits your budget, with no hidden fees or contracts.

My child also needs help with History. Can we find a tutor for that too?

Of course. We have expert tutors across more than 300 subjects, from core GCSE and A-Level topics like Maths and Science to languages, humanities, and even practical skills like coding or musical instruments. You can find support for all your child's learning needs on one platform.

What technology do we need for online tutoring?

It's very simple. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our custom-built online classroom runs directly in your web browser, so there's no complicated software to install.

How can I track my child's progress?

Communication is key. You can message your tutor at any time to discuss progress. After each lesson, the tutor will share feedback, and you can work with them to set clear goals. It's a collaborative process to ensure your child is always moving towards their academic targets.

Do you offer any support for creative writing, beyond the A-Level curriculum?

Yes, many of our English tutors are also passionate writers themselves and offer sessions focused purely on creative writing. Whether your child wants to craft short stories, write poetry, or simply become a more confident writer, you can find a tutor to help them find their voice.
