About Course

A Level English Literature is the culmination of AS Level study, adding wider reading, unseen texts, and the highest level of independent critical argument.

Because A Level is offered through AQA, Cambridge, Edexcel, and OxfordAQA, exact set texts and coursework requirements differ between boards. Centaurus Academy's A Level English Literature tutors specialise in this subject and level alone, giving you an online A Level English Literature tutor trained on your child's specific set texts and board, with A Level English literature tuition online built around that exact syllabus.

Lessons focus on the substantial jump in critical sophistication A2 demands, since final exams expect original, well-supported arguments across unfamiliar as well as studied texts.

Many of our A Level English Literature students are applying to competitive university courses, including English, Law, and Journalism, so our tutors understand exactly what strong grades at this level require.

Because final A Level grades carry real weight for university offers, our tutors treat every session with genuine seriousness, closing gaps and building exam-ready precision right up to results day.
