Lina H
Professional and inspiring Essay Writing and English tutor
Maths is usually the subject students struggle with most at school mainly due to the lack of individual help during lessons. Students often don’t ask for help when faced with a topic they find hard and so they develop gaps in their learning, which in itself become problematic later on. In my opinion the first objective of private tutoring in maths should be to systematically deal with those gaps, which are usually identified within the first couple of lessons. Once the gaps are covered, we can then proceed to cover the necessary course material based on individual requirements.I have extensive e...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child wants to apply to a top London university like UCL or Imperial. Can a tutor help with their personal statement?

Absolutely. Many of our Essay Writing tutors have extensive experience helping students craft compelling personal statements that stand out to admissions teams at competitive universities. They can help your child structure their ideas and showcase their strengths effectively.

With the competition for places at London's top schools, can a tutor help my child's writing stand out?

Yes, that's exactly where one-to-one tuition can help. A tutor can work with your child on the specific skills needed for higher-level analysis and sophisticated arguments, helping them move beyond the standard curriculum to produce work that truly shines.

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. It's all about finding someone your child will connect with.

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

We want to make sure you find the perfect fit, which is 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 much do online Essay Writing tutors in London cost?

Our tutors set their own rates, which typically range from £20 to £50 per hour, depending on their experience and level of expertise. You can easily filter by price to find a brilliant tutor who fits your family's budget.

Are the tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. We interview every applicant and only accept 1 in 8 who apply. All of our tutors are DBS-checked or have passed equivalent background checks, so you can have complete peace of mind.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence in their writing?

Confidence comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, there are no silly questions. A tutor creates a safe, encouraging environment where your child can build their skills step-by-step, turning 'I can't do this' into 'I've got this'.

How does online tutoring work?

All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and tools for sharing documents, making it easy for your child to collaborate with their tutor just as they would in person.

Can a tutor help with specific exam techniques for GCSE or A-Level essays?

Definitely. Our tutors are experts in various exam boards and can teach your child proven techniques for planning essays under pressure, managing their time effectively, and hitting the key assessment objectives to maximise their marks.

What happens in a typical essay writing lesson?

Every lesson is different because it's tailored to your child. A session might involve breaking down an essay question, planning a structure together on the interactive whiteboard, analysing a piece of text, or working on grammar and vocabulary.

How long will it take to see an improvement in my child's essays?

Every child learns at their own pace, but regular, focused sessions can make a big difference quite quickly. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence and the quality of their work within just a few lessons.

Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can you help with other skills?

While we offer support for all academic subjects, we believe learning is for everyone. You can find tutors for a huge range of skills, from learning a musical instrument like the guitar to coding in Python or even public speaking.
