Roxy C
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 H
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!

They can focus on specific exam techniques, advanced textual analysis, and crafting compelling arguments to help your child stand out.

They understand the level of writing required for successful applications and can guide your child in developing the critical thinking and expression skills valued by universities like Exeter.
Is writing tutoring only for school subjects, or can my child develop other writing skills?
While we excel in academic subjects like GCSE and A-Level English, our tutors can also help with a wide range of writing skills beyond the curriculum. This could include creative writing, journalistic writing, public speaking scripts, or even improving general communication for personal development or future hobbies.
What if my child doesn't get along with their first writing tutor?
Your child's comfort and learning are our top priority. 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. We want to ensure you find the perfect match.
How do I choose the best online writing tutor for my child?
You can browse our extensive list of online writing tutors, filtering by subject, level, and price. Each tutor has a detailed profile including their qualifications, experience, reviews from other parents, and a video introduction. We recommend reading reviews and even booking a free introductory chat to ensure they're the right fit for your child.

Online tutoring offers personalised, one-to-one attention that's often difficult to achieve in a classroom.
