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!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a writing tutor help my child develop the analytical depth needed for top GCSE grades in Forest Hill?
Absolutely. Many parents in Forest Hill are looking for that extra edge. Our expert writing tutors specialise in helping students develop sophisticated analytical skills, strong essay structures, and persuasive arguments that are essential for achieving top grades in GCSE English and other essay-based subjects. They'll work with your child to build the confidence and techniques needed to excel.
How can an online writing tutor prepare my child for competitive university applications in London?
A key part of applying to sought-after London universities is a standout personal statement. Our tutors can guide your child through the entire process, from brainstorming ideas to refining their language and structure, ensuring their unique voice and achievements shine through. They'll help your child articulate their academic interests and ambitions in a compelling way that makes an impact.
Is writing tutoring just for school subjects, or can my child learn creative writing or other communication skills?
Not at all! While many parents come to us for academic support in subjects like English, History, or Religious Studies, our tutors also offer a wide range of skills. If your child wants to explore creative writing, improve their debating skills, or simply become a more confident communicator, we can help them find a tutor who specialises in those areas.
What if my child doesn't get along with their first writing tutor?
We want you to feel completely confident. That's why we offer a 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 pick the best online writing tutor for my child?
It's really straightforward. You can browse our tutors' profiles, read about their experience, qualifications, and specialisms, and see reviews from other parents. We encourage you to message a few tutors and even book a free introductory chat to find the perfect match for your child's personality and learning style.
How much does online writing tutoring cost?
The cost of tutoring can vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications, but you'll find a range of prices to suit your budget. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly displayed on their profile, so there are no surprises.
How can a writing tutor help my child build confidence?
Confidence often comes from understanding and success. A one-to-one tutor provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without fear, make mistakes, and learn at their own pace. Seeing their writing improve and understanding complex ideas clearly can make a huge difference to their self-belief.
How do you ensure your writing tutors are high quality and safe?
We have a rigorous vetting process. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, and every tutor undergoes a thorough background check. We also continuously monitor feedback from parents like you to ensure they maintain our high standards of teaching and support. Your child's safety and learning experience are our top priorities.
What's the benefit of online writing lessons compared to in-person?
Online lessons offer incredible flexibility and convenience. Your child can learn from the comfort of your Forest Hill home, at a time that fits your family's schedule. Our virtual classroom is interactive and engaging, with tools like whiteboards and document sharing, making it just as effective as in-person learning, if not more so.
How quickly can I expect to see an improvement in my child's writing?
While every child is different, many parents notice a positive change in their child's confidence and approach to writing after just a few sessions. With consistent support, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade, and for GCSEs, an improvement of up to two grades is common, demonstrating real progress.
Can a writing tutor help if my child is shy or reluctant to ask questions in class?
Absolutely. The one-to-one setting is perfect for shy students. They get dedicated attention from their tutor in a private and supportive environment, which often encourages them to open up, ask questions, and engage more deeply with the material than they might in a busy classroom.
How can a writing tutor help my child build confidence?
Many subjects require strong writing skills. Our tutors can support your child with essay writing for History, Religious Studies, Geography, Sociology, and even Science subjects where structured answers and explanations are key. They can help your child develop clear, concise, and well-supported written responses across the curriculum.
