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!!

asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is applying to competitive London universities like UCL or LSE. Can a tutor help with their personal statement?
Absolutely. Many of our Essay Writing tutors specialise in university applications and have extensive experience helping students craft personal statements that stand out. They can help your child structure their thoughts, showcase their strengths, and write with a clear, confident voice.
We live in North London and are aiming for a top school. Can tutors help with the specific skills needed?
Yes. Our tutors can provide targeted support to develop the sophisticated analytical and writing skills required by academically demanding schools. They can focus on everything from nuanced textual analysis to constructing complex arguments, tailored to the level your child is working towards.
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 teaching style. You can also message tutors beforehand to discuss your child's specific needs before booking a lesson.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is, which is why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the right match for your child, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How much does online Essay Writing tutoring cost in North London?
Our tutors set their own rates, which typically range from £25 to £50 per hour, depending on their experience and level of expertise. You can see each tutor's price clearly on their profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident in their writing?
Confidence often comes from understanding. A tutor provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling judged. By breaking down complex tasks into manageable steps and celebrating small wins, a tutor helps your child see that they can succeed, building their self-belief one lesson at a time.
How do you vet your tutors? How do I know they're safe?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed a background check. We also have a rigorous selection process, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, ensuring your child is learning from the best.
Can tutoring really improve my child's GCSE English grade?
Yes, it can make a significant difference. Focused, one-to-one support can help your child master key areas they find difficult. For GCSE students, our tutoring has been shown to help improve results by up to two grades, giving them a real boost.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we cover all academic subjects, we also have tutors for a huge range of other skills! Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get into coding with Python, or even master public speaking, you can find an expert tutor to help them.
How do the online lessons work?
Our online classroom is designed to be simple and effective. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard for brainstorming ideas and editing text, and a way to share documents. All your child needs is a computer or tablet with a stable internet connection, a webcam, and a microphone.
How long are the sessions and how often should my child have them?
Most sessions are one hour long, which is usually enough to cover a topic in depth without being overwhelming. Many parents book weekly sessions for consistency, but the frequency is completely up to you and can be arranged directly with your chosen tutor to fit your child's needs and your schedule.
How quickly can we find a tutor and get started?
You can get started very quickly. Many tutors respond to messages within a few hours. Once you find a tutor you like, you can book your first session through their calendar. It's possible to have your child's first lesson arranged within 24 hours.
