Errol K
Errol supported me with my nursing dissertation.
I am a student who achieved good grades throughout my course, but unfortunately, in my 3rd year. This slipped because I didn't understand how to analyse my writing critically. Errol used kindness and his analytical mind to support me. Errol supported my development, helped me become a more critical practitioner, and improved my writing structure. Errol was very flexible, kind and patient, and I will be internally grateful. If you're thinking about booking with Errol, I would 100% recommend him to anyone

Dr Eddison L
I cannot thank Edd enough for the support he gave me throughout my dissertation. His feedback was consistently clear, detailed, and incredibly constructive, helping me to strengthen both my academic writing and overall structure. Edd took the time to explain areas for improvement in a way that was encouraging and easy to understand, which really boosted my confidence. His guidance made a huge difference to the quality of my work, and I genuinely feel I could not have achieved the same outcome without his help. I would highly recommend Edd to anyone needing academic support — his knowledge, professionalism, and dedication are outstanding. Best regards Neliy

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is at the University of Exeter/Plymouth. Can we find a tutor familiar with their requirements?
Yes, many of our tutors are academics or postgraduates themselves and have experience with specific university guidelines. You can view each tutor's profile to see their qualifications and experience, and message them before booking to ensure they're the right fit for your child's course.
After the structured environment of a Torquay grammar school, my child is struggling with independent study. Can a tutor help?
Absolutely. This is a very common challenge. A dissertation tutor does more than just help with the subject; they act as a mentor, helping your child develop crucial skills in project management, time planning, and independent research that will serve them well throughout their career.
How do I choose the right dissertation tutor for my child?
Start by reading tutor profiles and reviews from other parents and students. Look for tutors with experience in your child's subject area. We recommend sending a message to a few tutors to discuss your child's project and goals to find the perfect match.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is essential for learning. That's why we have a first lesson guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How can I be sure the tutors are qualified and safe?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is interviewed, background-checked, and reference-checked before they can join Tutorful. We are very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How much does online dissertation tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and subject level, starting from £15 an hour. You can see each tutor's hourly rate on their profile, so you can find an experienced tutor that fits your budget with no hidden costs.
How do the online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. It's a simple and effective way for them to collaborate with their tutor on their dissertation in real-time.
Can a tutor help with specific parts of the dissertation, like the literature review?
Yes, definitely. Our tutors can provide targeted help wherever it's needed most. They can assist with everything from planning the initial proposal and conducting a literature review to structuring arguments and final proofreading.
How often should my child have a session?
This is completely flexible and depends on your child's needs. Some students have regular weekly sessions to stay on track, while others book lessons as and when they need help with a specific chapter or deadline. You can discuss the best approach with your chosen tutor.
Can tutoring help my child feel less stressed about their dissertation?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits. A dissertation can feel overwhelming, and having an expert guide to break it down into smaller, manageable tasks can significantly reduce anxiety and build your child's confidence in their own abilities.
