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😃

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
My child is at a demanding Kent grammar school like The Judd School. Can a tutor match that high academic level?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are subject specialists with experience helping students thrive in highly academic environments. You can view each tutor's qualifications and experience on their profile to find someone who is the perfect fit for the challenges and expectations of a top grammar school.
We're aiming for a Russell Group university. Can a tutor help my child develop the advanced essay skills needed for this?
Yes, this is a very common goal for families we help. An experienced tutor can work with your child on the sophisticated analytical and argumentative skills that top universities look for. They can help them learn how to write with greater depth, clarity, and critical insight, which is essential for both A-Levels and university-level study.
How do I choose the best Essay Writing tutor for my child?
It's easy to find the right fit. You can filter tutors by their experience, read reviews from other parents, and even watch introductory videos to get a feel for their teaching style. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs before booking a lesson.
How much do Essay Writing tutors in Kent cost?
The price varies depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles, so you can find an excellent tutor who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. If for any reason the first lesson isn't a good fit, let us know. 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 do online lessons work?
Our online classroom is designed to be simple and effective. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard for sharing notes and examples, and a document editor for working on essays in real-time. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident?
Confidence often comes from understanding. When a tutor takes the time to break down difficult concepts in a way your child understands, it removes the anxiety around the subject. This patient, one-to-one support in a safe space helps them feel more capable and prepared for class.
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 verify their ID and references before they can join the platform. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply.
How long will it take to see an improvement in my child's writing?
Every child learns at their own pace, but consistency is key. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence and understanding after just a few sessions. Regular lessons help to build on progress and embed new skills for the long term.
Can a tutor help with specific exam techniques?
Definitely. Our tutors are brilliant at helping students prepare for exams like GCSEs and A-Levels. They can teach your child how to understand mark schemes, manage their time effectively, and structure their essays to earn the highest possible marks.
Is this just for academic subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or guitar?
While we have fantastic tutors for core academic subjects, we also offer support in a huge range of other areas! You can find expert tutors for everything from learning a new language or musical instrument to practical skills like coding and public speaking.
What if our schedule is really busy and changes often?
That's one of the main benefits of online tutoring. You're not tied to a fixed weekly slot. You can schedule lessons as and when you need them, fitting them around school, clubs, and family commitments. You have the flexibility to find a time that works for you.
