National 5 English Literature tutors

English Literature at GCSE and A-level is taught around set texts: a Shakespeare, a 19th-century novel, a modern play or novel, and an anthology of poetry at GCSE; longer set texts and a coursework component at A-level. Tutoring helps most where students can discuss a text fluently but struggle to write to the assessment objectives: context, language analysis, structural analysis, comparison. Boards (AQA, Edexcel, OCR, Eduqas, WJEC) prescribe different texts; tutor familiarity with the specific texts matters more here than in most subjects. For A-level, look for tutors comfortable with critical theory and unseen analysis under timed conditions.
