Hi there, my name is Lukas. I am 25 years old and a graduated master's student from Oxford University, specialising in Renaissance literature at St. Hilda's College. I previously studied at St. Catherine's in Oxford where I completed an undergraduate English Literature degree. I achieved a high merit in my MA and a high 2.1 in my undergraduate degree. I began tutoring during my studies and have used it to supplement my income as a SEN specialist education worker. I have over one hundred hours of experience with online tutoring and have a few years of backed up resources for English Literature and English Language across AQA, OCR, EDUQAS, Edexcel exam boards, for both GCSE and A Level. I also have experience with the International Baccalaureate. With my combination of SEN experience and academic success, I am comfortable teaching across a wide range of abilities. I am very passionate about teaching literature, having worked both online and in-person with my students, and I hope to complete a PHD in the coming years to allow me to teach literature as a career. I spent the year after graduation working as a learning support assistant in a school, which has broadened my teaching abilities to suit a variety of educational needs outside of one-to-one tutoring. I am also passionate about mentoring students for application to university, especially Oxford and Cambridge, in order to encourage under-represented students from similar backgrounds to my own. My hobbies outside of literature include sport, and I am also a keen amateur musician.

Hi, I'm Emily and I've recently graduated from the University of St Andrews with a First Class Master of Arts (Hons) in English. I'm passionate about education and first discovered my love for teaching when I began tutoring Year 11 students for their IGCSE English exams in Sixth Form. It was so rewarding to watch their confidence grow and grades improve, and I would love to help your child to do the same. As someone who studied English Literature at university and also studied history and Latin at A-Level, I have lots of experience with textual analysis and essay writing. In tutoring sessions, I can provide feedback on assessment-style pieces of writing including coursework, guidance on the Point Evidence Analysis (PEA) structure, as well as discussions on key themes, ideas and contexts in the course materials. I also understand the immense benefits that reading for pleasure has on one's studies and am always more than happy to provide recommendations. In addition to literature, I have a lot of experience of learning languages, having studied Spanish at IGCSE, Latin at GCSE and A-Level and French at IGCSE, Higher Level IB and during my first year of university. I can help with vocab tests, going through grammatical structures, providing feedback on written pieces, translation practice and general conversation. I understand that every student has different needs and will cater my sessions to best suit their individual objectives. My teaching style is interactive, dynamic and flexible, enabling each student to get the most out of their lessons regardless of their learning style. I provide clear learning objectives for each session and engaging activities that range from mind maps to open-ended discussions, games and writing practice. I also appreciate the value of past paper practice and am keen to demystify the exam process. For each subject, I provide detailed feedback on past paper responses and guide my students through the layout of their exams, as well as the assessment objectives and criteria listed in the mark schemes. I am also always happy to offer advice on how to revise effectively and successfully navigate the stress of assessment periods. In addition to exams, I am eager to support students who are preparing to apply for higher education and can offer support for interview preparation and personal statements. Since I began tutoring, I have helped students from across the globe to pass their Common Entrance exams to Eton College and achieve top grades in their GCSEs. If you would like to learn more about my tutoring style and see how I could help support your child's learning, please reach out to the Edumentors team to book a trial session with me.

Hi, I’m Syenna, a UCL medical student with a passion for helping students not just improve academically, but truly believe in their own potential. I’ve been tutoring for over 5 years, supporting students of all ages to move up sets, strengthen their understanding, and achieve top grades in their exams. One of the most rewarding parts of tutoring for me is seeing confidence grow. Academically, I achieved mostly 8s and 9s at GCSE, followed by straight A grades across 4 A-levels. I also scored in the top 10% of the BMAT, securing my place to study Medicine at UCL. Alongside my medical degree, I’m also undertaking the highly competitive Bachelor’s in Surgical Sciences, which reflects both my work ethic and my commitment to excellence. Beyond subject tutoring, I also offer support with: Interview preparation (including medical school interviews) Personal statement coaching University application guidance My medical background means I’m organised, patient, and skilled at breaking down tricky topics into simple, digestible steps. I always take the time to understand how each child learns best, and I adapt my teaching style to suit them, whether they need gentle encouragement, clear step-by-step guidance, or a boost in confidence. Most importantly, I create an environment where children feel safe to ask questions, make mistakes, and grow at their own pace. You can rely on me to be consistent, professional, and fully invested in your child’s progress every single week. If you’re looking for a tutor who is caring, dependable, and dedicated to helping your child thrive — I’d love to support your family.

Need an English Literature Tutor to Help Your Child Succeed?

In the early years, “English Literature” is less about formal literary analysis and much more about stories, rhymes, picture books and talking about what children hear and see. Shared reading helps children build vocabulary, listening skills, comprehension and a lasting connection with books, all of which are central to early literacy development. Government early years guidance also emphasises reading comprehension, vocabulary and a broad range of reading experiences to help children become confident readers.

Many families begin with broader Early Years tutors before choosing a specialist English Literature tutor or English Language tutor to support story time, listening, vocabulary and early reading confidence. One-to-one support at this stage can make books feel exciting rather than intimidating and can help children build the foundations they will later use in KS1 tutors and beyond.

The right tutor can help children enjoy stories, talk about books with confidence and build strong early literacy habits from the start.

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.

Early Years English Literature tutoring typically starts from around £25-£30 per hour, although the exact cost depends on the tutor’s experience, lesson frequency and the type of support your child needs. Some families book weekly sessions to build confidence gradually, while others look for help with school readiness, vocabulary or reading engagement. Many compare options before deciding to find a tutor that suits their child’s personality and pace of learning.
