Kathy F
Creative Writing tutor
I am a Royal Holloway, University London graduate with a BA and MA, specialising in arts and humanities. I am very keen to help pupils to learn and fully understand what they might not get in a classroom environment. Whilst at school and even at university, I had one-on-one help and I would not have got the grades if it was not for this extra help. That is why I want to help those who may need the extra help to get the grades they want.I did my A levels at a school as opposed to a college and this gave me the experience to work with the lower parts of the school (junior and senior). I would help...

Roxy has been an absolutely wonderful tutor. She is warm, very engaging, and clearly highly competent. Our son genuinely loved his lessons with her and always looked forward to them, which says a lot. We could see his confidence grow, and his writing abilities improved noticeably over a short period of time. Roxy has a fantastic way of connecting with children while still challenging them and helping them make real progress. We are incredibly grateful for her support and would highly recommend her to any parent.

Matthew has been amazing with my son is building his confidence in his KS3 English & Creative Writing by skills. My son has ASD/PDA and is currently in home education, so I needed a patient and understanding tutor, who could also encourage my son and help him develop his existing writing skills / text. Feedback from my son is that Matthew is really knowledgable and is great at moving him beyond his comfort zone!

Ifa M
Life changing experience!
I would like to express my appreciation for Ifa’s exceptional teaching skills in helping my son learn English. Ifa brings a wonderful combination of fun, knowledge, and experience to every lesson, making the learning process both enjoyable and highly effective. She engages with my son attentively throughout the entire session, ensuring that he remains focused and motivated without even realising how much he’s learning.
What truly stands out is Ifa’s ability to explain complex concepts in a way that my son immediately grasps. No other teacher has been able to reach him as clearly as Ifa has, and I was genuinely impressed by how quickly he picked up many ideas he had previously struggled with.
Not only has my son made tremendous progress, but I’ve also learned from Ifa. She has shown me the best ways to support my son’s learning journey, tailored specifically to his individual needs. Her guidance has been invaluable, and I’m grateful for the positive impact she’s had on both of us.
Thank you, Ifa!

Brilliant Writing tutors who you’ll really click with.
Our experienced tutors take the time to understand where each student needs to focus and their preferred way of learning. They make a measurable difference – 90% of all students improve by at least one grade.
My child is hoping to go to Carlisle College. Can a tutor help them prepare for their A-Levels?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in helping students make the leap from GCSE to A-Level. They can help your child build the advanced writing and analytical skills needed to feel confident and succeed in their chosen subjects at college.
We're looking ahead to universities like Lancaster or Newcastle. Can a tutor help with a personal statement?
Yes, this is a very popular reason for seeking a writing tutor. Our tutors can provide expert guidance on how to structure a personal statement, articulate achievements, and craft a compelling narrative that will help your child's university application shine.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. 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 do I choose the right Writing tutor for my child in Carlisle?
You can start by reading the tutors' profiles, which include their experience, qualifications, and reviews from other parents just like you. Many tutors also offer a short introductory chat, which is a great way for you and your child to see if they're the right fit before booking a lesson.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed a background check before they can start teaching. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How much do online Writing tutors cost?
Our tutors set their own prices based on their experience and qualifications, so you can find someone who fits your budget. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, with no hidden fees or complicated contracts.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions without feeling embarrassed. A tutor can break down tricky topics and celebrate small wins, which helps build your child's self-belief lesson by lesson.
What happens in a typical online lesson?
Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which includes a video chat and an interactive whiteboard. A tutor might use the whiteboard to brainstorm essay ideas with your child, share resources, or work through examples together in real-time.
How long is a tutoring session?
The standard session length is one hour, which is usually ideal for keeping your child engaged and focused. However, you can always discuss different lesson lengths with your tutor to find what works best for your child's learning style and your family's schedule.
How quickly will we see an improvement?
Every child learns at their own pace, but the focused, one-to-one attention of tutoring often leads to progress quite quickly. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. The biggest change you might see early on is in your child's confidence and attitude towards their work.
My child really struggles with motivation for writing. Can a tutor help?
Yes, a great tutor is fantastic at reigniting a student's interest. They can connect writing tasks to your child's own hobbies and passions, making the subject feel more relevant and enjoyable. This personalised approach can make a huge difference to their motivation.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
While we have thousands of expert tutors for academic subjects like Maths, English and Science, we also have tutors for a huge range of other skills! You can find support for everything from learning a musical instrument like the guitar to coding, public speaking, and even learning a new language for fun.
