Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

Can an online writing tutor help my child prepare for the 11-Plus exams for grammar schools in Gloucester?

Absolutely. Our online writing tutors in Gloucester specialise in helping children develop the vocabulary, sentence construction, and essay skills needed for competitive exams like the 11-Plus for schools such as The Crypt School and Sir Thomas Rich's. They can focus specifically on the types of writing tasks your child will encounter.

How can a writing tutor support my child's ambition to attend a top university like Bristol or Bath?

Strong writing is crucial for university applications and essay-based degrees. A tutor can help your child hone their analytical and argumentative writing skills, essential for achieving top grades at A-Level and crafting compelling personal statements, preparing them for the rigour of competitive universities like Bristol or Bath.

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

While we excel in academic subjects like GCSE English or A-Level History, writing skills are universal! A tutor can help your child with creative writing, essay competitions, improving their communication for hobbies, or even developing professional writing for future career skills. It's all about clear expression.

What if my child doesn't get along with their writing tutor?

We want you and your child to feel completely comfortable. 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 choose the best online writing tutor for my child?

You can browse our tutors' profiles, read their reviews from other parents, and even watch introductory videos. Consider their experience with your child's age group or specific writing challenges, like 11-Plus preparation or essay writing. Our platform makes it easy to compare and find the perfect match.

How much does online writing tutoring typically cost?

The cost per hour varies depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You'll see each tutor's hourly rate clearly displayed on their profile, so you can choose a tutor that fits your budget. There are no hidden fees, and you only pay for the lessons your child takes.

How can a writing tutor help my child build confidence?

Confidence often grows with understanding and practice. A one-to-one tutor provides a safe, encouraging space for your child to ask questions, make mistakes, and celebrate small victories. This personalised attention helps them overcome anxieties about writing and feel more capable in their abilities.

What makes online writing lessons effective?

Online lessons offer the same personalised attention as in-person tutoring, but with added flexibility. Tutors can share screens, use interactive whiteboards for drafting and editing, and instantly share resources. It’s a dynamic and engaging way for your child to learn from the comfort of your home.

My child struggles with grammar and punctuation; can a tutor help with this?

Yes, definitely! Many children find grammar and punctuation challenging. A writing tutor can break down these rules into manageable steps, provide targeted exercises, and help your child apply them correctly in their own writing, making a big difference to their overall clarity.

How quickly can I expect to see improvements in my child's writing?

Every child is different, but consistent, tailored support usually leads to noticeable progress. Many parents report seeing improvements in their child's confidence and writing quality within a few weeks of regular sessions. Our data shows 90% of students improve by at least one grade.

Are the tutors on Tutorful qualified and safe for my child?

Absolutely. We are incredibly selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor undergoes a thorough vetting process, which includes identity checks, qualification verification, and enhanced background checks (DBS checks in the UK) to ensure your child's safety and your peace of mind.

How can a writing tutor help my child build confidence?

Yes, a tutor can tailor sessions to any specific writing need. Whether your child needs help brainstorming ideas for a creative story, structuring an essay, developing stronger arguments, or refining their descriptive language, their tutor will provide targeted guidance and feedback.
