Aileen L
enthusiastic and encouraging English tutor
As an English tutor I have tutored all ages, but I specifically tutor A Level Literature where I have a wide knowledge of the curriculum - I have tutored students across all the examination boards. I am a happy and enthusiastic mature person, who believes strongly in education and the confidence and opportunities that can be gained. My first aim is to encourage and praise pupils in their work - I believe enjoyment of the subject is the key to doing well. I personally enjoy the discussions, the debates. the sparks that come with a broader knowledge of the subject. And that "light bulb" moment that...

Jessica L
Jess is a fantastic tutor whom I would recommend very highly. She is extremely knowledgeable and experienced, and took time to prepare thoroughly for every session. She is a brilliant communicator and really listened to and built a rapport with my daughter, tailoring the lessons perfectly to her ability and what she needed. My daughter really enjoyed the lessons and found working with Jess an absolute pleasure. Jess's communication with me was excellent and she went the extra mile on many occasions to offer help and support. A very positive experience for which my daughter and I are both very grateful. Thank you so much, Jess.

Scarlett M
Scarlett is just wonderful ! She tutors our daughter for A level English. Our daughter has struggled with the jump from GCSE English to A Level and Scarlett has been fantastic in helping find out the reasons why. She talks through essays and explains exactly what bits examiners would like and what bits need some changes but she does it in such a clever, friendly and lovely way that makes it easy to understand. Totally recommend Scarlett for tutoring.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
When is the best time to start A-Level English tutoring?
Anytime your child feels they could use support! Some families start at the very beginning of the course to build a firm knowledge base, while others look for targeted help closer to exams. Even just a few focused sessions can make a big difference, as many students see noticeable progress in around eight hours of tutoring.
Are English lessons only available online?
Yes! Online tutoring gives you access to the perfect tutor from anywhere in the UK, without the hassle of travel. Lessons are flexible, interactive, and take place in a safe online classroom, making learning easy and convenient.
Can I choose my own A-Level English tutor?
Definitely. You can browse tutor profiles, read their bios, check their qualifications, and see reviews from other students. This helps you find the best match for your child’s learning style and needs
Can tutors help with specific texts, like Frankenstein or a poetry anthology?
Our tutors specialise in a wide range of texts and can provide in-depth support tailored to your child’s needs. Whether it’s exploring complex themes, analysing poetic techniques, or mastering essay structures for unseen texts, lessons are designed to tackle those exact challenges.
Will a tutor help my child understand the A-Level grading system?
Absolutely! Tutors can make the A-Level grading system easy to understand and show your child exactly what’s expected for top marks. With clear, constructive feedback on essays and analysis, they help develop the precise skills needed to excel.
Can A-Level English tutors help my child if they’re coming from National 5?
A tutor can provide tailored support to bridge the gap between National 5 and the A-Level expectations. They’ll reinforce key skills from the RUAE paper, guide portfolio writing, and introduce a broader range of literary texts, including Shakespeare, so your child builds a solid foundation of knowledge.
