Hi! My name is Isabella and I am an Undergraduate student at the University of Manchester, studying Politics and International Relations and progressing into second year this September. I have a successful academic record, having achieved 3 A* in History, English Literature and Sociology A-Levels. However, this was not always the case; I had achieved a C in my first history mock in Year 12 and a B in my last mock before exams in Year 13. Yet, through targeting the topics and skills that were difficult for me, I was able to improve dramatically in History, gaining exam results that were amongst the top 5 students in my year group of 139. The drastic improvements I made in History also taught me how to effectively revise for English and Sociology too. This personal experience makes me a strong tutor because I understand that successful learning does not come from passive, generic methods. Academic success requires active, adaptable ways of learning that specifically work for you. I am enthusiastic to help similar students gain confidence, expand their knowledge and reach their full potential in their A-Levels. Book a session with me in A Level History, Sociology or English Literature! Teaching these units are my strengths: AQA History The Cold War and Stuart Britain OCR English Literature Gothic Literature (Dracula and The Bloody Chamber), The Tempest, Sylvia Plath's poetry, The Secret History, The Duchess of Malfi and The Merchant's Tale AQA Sociology Education, Crime and Deviance, Media, Families and Households and Research Methods

I am an undergraduate Philosophy and Literature student at the University of Warwick, where I achieved a first-class standard in my first year. I previously studied at Reading School, attaining A grades in English Literature, History, and Philosophy at A-Level. I am also a National Ethics Cup Debate Champion (2023) and have published writing in Clockwise Cat, Academy of Heart and Mind, and The Hooghly Review. Alongside my academic studies, I have delivered one-to-one tuition through Edumentors, supporting GCSE and A-Level students in achieving measurable improvements in essay performance and exam outcomes. I specialise in essay-based subjects, particularly A-Level English Literature and Philosophy, and GCSE English at Grade 7–9 level. My focus is on advanced essay construction: developing clear thesis statements, structured argumentation, precise textual analysis, and confident critical engagement. Drawing on my background in competitive debate and academic writing, I teach students how to construct sophisticated, well-supported arguments that meet top-band criteria. Sessions are rigorous, structured, and tailored to individual goals, with detailed written feedback provided to ensure consistent progress. My aim is not simply to improve grades, but to develop intellectual confidence, clarity of thought, and analytical independence. I work best with motivated students seeking to refine their writing, deepen their understanding, and push into the highest performance bands at GCSE and A-Level.

During my English degree at the University of Cambridge, I learnt the incomparable educational value of one-to-one discussion with a subject specialist. I am continuing my studies with the Cambridge MPhil course, using the communication skills and technical knowledge I have gained to provide highly-informed tutoring in Oxbridge applications and English-related subjects. I offer a tailored approach to each student that improves weaker skill areas through targeted exercises, while building confidence through rapport and using accessible introductions to complex key terms and ideas. At Cambridge, I have studied texts from every section of the GCSE & A Level syllabus at a First Class standard, and the rigourous course provided me with broad historical, cultural and philosophical knowledge to enrich textual study. I have worked with students ranging in ability and interest in the subject, so have developed strategies to encourage enthusiastic participation in learning, including the use of Quizlet flashcards, and constructive essay feedback. Effective communication is at the heart of English study; the tone of my lessons is pitched specifically for each individual, but is always friendly and enthusiastic. Educational qualifications: Literature, Culture and Thought, MPhil, University of Cambridge (in progress) English, BA Hons, University of Cambridge A*A*A* at A Level (English, Russian, Physics) 11 A* at GCSEs

Hi there! My name is Clara and I currently study Philosophy at St Andrews University. My life-long passion for reading has led to me becoming an English tutor (as well as teaching other humanities subjects!) I believe that the benefits of tutoring go beyond earning high exam results. While this is certainly the goal, looking beyond exams by inspiring a love for learning is one of my priorities. This principle is carried throughout my tutoring sessions; my main goal being finding a way for each student to learn to enjoy subjects that they may be initially wary about. I achieved a grade 9 in both English Literature and English Language at GCSE, as well as an A* grade in English Literature at A-Level. My love of reading has always motivated my studies and, thus, now my career! I have developed my essay writing skills in both examination and coursework based subjects. I aim to find out about my students strengths and weaknesses, offering praise and encouragement when necessary, in order to create a comfortable learning environment. I have found that this enables students to become more receptive to challenges that will aid their educational development. Statistics for 2023/2024: 100% of my Alevel students received a B grade or above. 100% of my Alevel students secured their first choice university place. 100% of my GCSE students received a 5 or above. 80% of my students in this exam cohort secured a grade two levels or more above their predicted grades. Please feel free to reach out with any questions or concerns. Thank you for considering my profile!

Very big improvement given a short period of time with only a small time period of about 3 months my daughter in year 10 has gone from a level U to a level 4 in her maths grade with her tutor Jose. He is a very good maths teacher and has very easy ways of doing hard GCSE maths. What my daughter used to find immensely hard is now very easy. Jose is sadly not her tutor anymore but this was a very great experience and will be looking forward to using this company again for my daughter to get high grades and pass her GCSE’s thank you very much.

Excellent service, highly recommented Booked a block of Lessons leading up to my sons maths exam as maths was his weakest subject and he felt he wanted help. Pia (the tutor) was patient and professional and explained things in a way my son could easily understand. He looked forward to each lesson and felt the lessons gave him the confidence, knowledge and understanding he needed to face his maths GCSE exam. He thinks he did really well in his first exam and we are so pleased we invested in the lessons leading up to his GCSE’s. Can’t recommend Edumentors and Pia enough. Really professional service and well worth the money.

The tutoring times were really flexible and the tutor themselves (Izzy Mitchell) was amazing. The level of communication allowed between the student and tutor made it easy for my questions to be answered quickly. So thank you so much Edumentors and Izzy! Personally, I went from a 6 to a 9 in AQA English literature in just a few weeks so if you are thinking about it, give it a go!

Absolutely superb. Helped my son move from a predicted D in Maths to an actual A, in year. Highly recommend both Edumentors and specifically Apoorv as a tutor. It was easy to set-up, pay and manage. Any issues were solved quickly and without fuss.

Fantastic Flexible German Tutoring We had Imogen from Edumentor tutoring my daughter for GCSE’s. Imogen is a fantastic tutor and through the year prepared my daughter enabling her to get a 9 in German. Edumentor were extremely flexible and helpful in ensuring we could have the sessions when we needed them the most. I would throughly recommend using them for your GCSE tutoring.

Need an English Literature Tutor to Help Your Child Succeed?

A-Level English Literature can feel demanding when students move from understanding texts to analysing them in depth. Essays require clear arguments, strong structure and the ability to compare ideas under time pressure, which is where many students begin to struggle.

At this point, parents often start looking for more focused support. Some choose an English Literature tutor for subject-specific help, while others explore A-Level tutors online or an A-Level English tutor to improve writing skills more broadly.

With different approaches available, it helps to understand what kind of support will make the biggest difference.

FAQs

If you still need assistance, our support team is always available to answer your questions and help you choose the right tutor for your educational goals and learning needs.

Need help? Contact us
A-Level English Literature tutors typically start from around £30 per hour, depending on experience and how specialised the support is.
