Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child is aiming for a competitive course at UCL or LSE. Can a tutor help with this?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students prepare for applications to top universities. They can help your child hone their essay writing to meet the high standards expected, from structuring complex arguments in their A-Level subjects to perfecting their personal statement.

We live in Islington and the jump to A-Level essay writing feels huge. How can a tutor help?

This is a very common concern for parents. A tutor provides one-to-one support to bridge that gap. They can break down the specific requirements of A-Level marking schemes, teach advanced analytical skills, and build your child's confidence in handling university-level questions, making the transition feel much more manageable.

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

It's easy to find the perfect match. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message tutors directly to discuss your child's needs before booking. This helps you find someone with the right experience and teaching style for your child.

How much does online Essay Writing tutoring cost?

Our tutors set their own rates, so you can find an experienced tutor to fit your budget. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, so there are no hidden costs. You can find tutors starting from £15 per hour.

What happens in a typical online lesson?

Lessons take place in our interactive online classroom, with video chat, a shared whiteboard, and file sharing. A tutor might work with your child to plan an essay structure, analyse a piece of text together, or provide live feedback on a draft they've written. Each session is tailored to your child's specific needs.

Are all the tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. We personally interview every tutor and they are all background-checked. We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.

What if we don't click with the first tutor?

We want to make sure you find the perfect fit for your child. That's why we have our 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 a tutor help my child build confidence?

Confidence is key. By working one-to-one in a supportive environment, your child can ask questions without fear of judgement. As they see their skills improve and their grades get better, their self-belief grows, which has a positive impact on all their subjects.

My child struggles with structuring their ideas. Can a tutor help with that?

Definitely. This is one of the most common areas tutors help with. They can teach your child proven techniques for planning, structuring arguments logically, and writing clear, concise paragraphs, turning confusing ideas into a powerful essay.

How often should my child have a lesson?

It's completely up to you and what works for your family. Many students have a regular weekly session to stay on top of their work, while others might book a few lessons to focus on a specific essay or prepare for an exam. It's totally flexible.

Beyond English, what subjects can an Essay Writing tutor help with?

Excellent question! Strong essay skills are vital across many subjects like History, Politics, Sociology, and even for writing up reports in the Sciences. A tutor can help your child apply these core skills to any subject that requires written arguments.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we cover all academic areas from Maths to French, your child can also learn practical skills like coding or public speaking, or even take up a new hobby like learning the guitar or photography.
