What the exam involves
Schools choose their own exam board, so what an A-Level English exam involves depends on which one your child sits.

What to check with a tutor
None of these decide the price on TutorLab, but they decide whether a tutor is the right fit, so ask before you book.
- Which exam board does the tutor teach for English, and how recently?
- What does the tutor's published rate include, and could there be extras?
- How will the tutor tell you when your child no longer needs regular sessions?

Is online A-Level English tutoring cheaper than in person?

Does a more experienced A-Level tutor cost more?
TutorLab tutors set one rate each, not a separate rate by experience or specialism. A specialist or more experienced tutor often charges more, so compare a few profiles and ask about a trial lesson before you commit.
How is the price I'm quoted worked out?
The price shown is one all-in price, so the price you see is the price you pay. Your tutor keeps their full rate.
