David J
Experienced Essay Writing Tutor
When it comes to History, I have always loved the subject, leading me to secure my place at the University of Leeds and to follow through my degree and gain a 2:1. While doing so, I had a fantastic time living in Leeds, which is why I came back to live here. My focus was on the British Empire, but having studied History all the way through school and university, my experience with the subject is very broad. For example I studied Britain from 1880-1980 and Nazi Germany at A Level, and American foreign policy and race relations and the Russian Revolution at GCSE. History is one of the most important...

Janette W
Janette is a very dedicated tutor she helped me with my essay writing and even went beyond by reviewing my essay outside of her tutoring hours. This shows her commitment and dedication to ensure her students succeed. Her teaching techniques and approach are very easy to understand. I passed my essay and Janette helped me with grammatical errors and guided me through all my mistakes. I will definitely be using Janette in the future as she is an extremely great teacher😃
Thanks

Jen H
I would like to say a massive thank you to Jen, who has helped me through one of my toughest years at university. I had some obstacles thrown in my way but with the help of Jen and her dedication I was able to pass my final dissertation with flying colours. I honestly can’t thank Jen enough for taking the time to sit and work through my whole dissertation from top to bottom. She was able to plan her lessons around times that suited me, always showing up with new ideas and advice that helped me get to where I am today. Without Jen’s help I honestly believe I would still be in the same place I was over a year ago!! A thank you doesn’t even do the hard work Jen put in as justice!!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child with their personal statement for Durham University?
Absolutely. Many of our Essay Writing tutors specialise in university applications, including UCAS personal statements. They can help your child structure their thoughts, showcase their strengths, and write in a way that captures the attention of admissions teams at competitive universities like Durham.
My child already gets good grades at a competitive Durham school. How can a tutor add extra value?
That's a great position to be in. A tutor can provide that extra edge by moving beyond the curriculum to focus on higher-level skills. They can challenge your child to deepen their critical analysis, refine their writing style, and develop the kind of intellectual curiosity that helps an application truly stand out from other strong candidates.
How do I choose the right Essay Writing tutor for my child?
It's easy to find the perfect match. You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. You can also message tutors beforehand to discuss your child's specific goals.
How much do online Essay Writing tutors cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on their experience and qualifications, so you can find an expert tutor that fits your family's budget.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors has passed an enhanced DBS check and we've verified their ID. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How can online tutoring specifically help improve my child's analytical skills?
In a one-to-one online setting, a tutor can focus entirely on your child's thought process. They can work through texts together, ask probing questions that encourage deeper thinking, and provide instant feedback on how to strengthen an argument or analyse evidence more effectively.
What happens in a typical online lesson?
Lessons are held in our purpose-built online classroom, which includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing. A tutor might review a recent essay with your child, work on planning a new one, or practise specific techniques for analysing complex sources.
How quickly will we see an improvement in my child's confidence and grades?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our data shows that 90% of students improve by at least one grade with our tutors. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence and enthusiasm for the subject after just a few sessions.
How long are the tutoring sessions?
The standard lesson length is one hour, which most students find is the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can arrange different session lengths by discussing it directly with your chosen tutor.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn something like music production or a new language?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the school curriculum! Whether your child wants to learn to code in Python, play the guitar, master music production, or speak Spanish, you can find an expert tutor to help them pursue their passion.
How do I book and pay for lessons?
Booking is simple and secure. Once you've chosen a tutor, you can schedule lessons directly through their calendar on the platform. Payments are handled safely online, so you never have to worry about cash.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
If things aren’t right with your first lesson just let us know. We’ll pay for
your next lesson with a new tutor – and even help you find them.
