Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child wants to apply to a competitive sixth form like LAE or Brampton Manor. Can a tutor help with this?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors have experience helping students strengthen their academic profiles for competitive applications. They can focus on developing the advanced essay writing and critical thinking skills needed to achieve the top GCSE grades required for entry into such sixth forms.

We live in East London and my child is hoping to study at a London university like Queen Mary. Is this something a tutor can help with?

Yes, definitely. A strong foundation in essay writing is crucial for university success. Our tutors can help your child master the skills needed for A-Levels and prepare them for the academic rigour of degree-level study, giving them a great head start for applications to top universities.

What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

We understand that the right fit is essential for learning. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

How do I choose the right Essay Writing tutor for my child?

You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. You can also message tutors beforehand to discuss your child's specific needs and goals to ensure they're the perfect match before booking.

How much does an Essay Writing tutor in East London cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can easily filter tutors by price on our search page to find someone who fits your budget. All pricing is transparent, with no hidden fees.

How do the online lessons work?

Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It's a secure and engaging environment designed specifically for one-to-one learning.

My child's confidence is low. Can a tutor help with that?

Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor provides a safe, encouraging space for your child to ask questions without fear of judgement. This personalised attention often leads to a big boost in self-belief.

Are all your tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our highest priority. Every UK-based tutor undergoes a thorough vetting process, including an ID check and a background check, before they can teach on our platform.

How often should my child have lessons?

This is completely flexible and depends on your child's goals. Most families start with one session a week, but you can arrange lessons as frequently as you need, especially in the run-up to exams. You can discuss the best plan with your chosen tutor.

Can a tutor help my child with specific GCSE topics, like analysing poetry?

Absolutely. The great thing about one-to-one tuition is that it's completely tailored. Your child can bring the exact topics they're finding tricky, whether it's analysing poetry, structuring a history essay, or understanding a specific play, and the tutor will focus the session on that.

Do you only offer tutoring for academic subjects like essay writing?

Not at all! While we have experts for core subjects from the 11+ to degree level, we also have brilliant tutors who can teach a wide range of skills and hobbies, from learning to play the guitar or piano to coding in Python.

What makes Tutorful a trusted choice for parents?

We're proud to have helped over 200,000 students on their learning journey. With a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 reviews, parents trust us because of our high-quality, vetted tutors and our focus on providing personalised, effective support that truly makes a difference.
