We Can make the difference

I went from 43% in first year to receiving a masters offer at the LSE! Having almost failed my first year I decided to get tutoring from The Profs in my second year. Thanks to the brilliant quality of the tutors I managed to score a 1st in my second year and receive an offer for the LSE Masters in Management. A big thank you to The Profs.

A Level English Literature Tutors: Frequently Asked Questions
Why are The Profs’ A-Level English Literature tutors considered subject specialists rather than generalists?
The Profs’ A-Level English Literature tutors are subject specialists recruited through one of the most selective vetting processes in UK tuition. They are matched to each student’s exam board, specification and target grade so lessons are precise and exam-focused from the first session. Our model prioritises experienced teachers, examiners and academics who teach English Literature at A-Level every week, not tutors who cover multiple unrelated subjects. This one-to-one tuition model ensures specialist, specification-aligned support from the outset.
How does The Profs select and vet A-Level English Literature tutors?
We operate a rigorous selection process - only around 3% of applicants are accepted. Every A-Level English Literature tutor meets strict standards before being matched with a student:
- All tutors hold a university degree; 98% hold postgraduate qualifications and 45% hold doctorates
- Every tutor has at least two years' teaching experience; the average is more than 10 years
- All tutors undergo identity verification and are fully DBS-checked - see our DBS check
- Many tutors are current or former secondary school teachers, examiners or university lecturers with direct experience of A-Level marking
- Each tutor is vetted specifically against the A-Level English Literature specification and the student’s exam board
What teaching experience and approaches do A-Level English Literature tutors bring?
At A-Level, depth of reading and exam technique matter equally. Our English Literature tutors combine deep subject knowledge with practical assessment experience and a structured teaching method:
- Expertise in close reading, literary criticism and contextual analysis relevant to A-Level texts
- Familiarity with mark schemes, common candidate errors and the question formats used by major awarding bodies
- A lesson structure that builds conceptual understanding, essay technique and time-management under exam conditions
- Adaptive pacing and personalised resources to suit a student’s learning style and revision timetable
How much progress can a student expect in A-Level English Literature with The Profs?
Our data shows consistent, measurable improvement. School-aged students working with The Profs report grade increases in 92% of cases, and A-Level students secure high attainment across cohorts. Tutors focus on:
- Diagnosing gaps in literary knowledge and structuring targeted remediation
- Sequencing content to mirror the A-Level syllabus and exam demands
- Practising essay technique, planning and timed responses using past-paper practice and mock exam-style questions
- Reducing last-minute cramming through steady term-time support
* Based on The Profs Client Feedback Survey 2025
