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.

Matthew has been amazing with my son is building his confidence in his KS3 English & Creative Writing by skills.

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.
Can a writing tutor help my child prepare for the 11+ entrance exams for Halifax grammar schools?
Absolutely. Many parents in Halifax seek support for the demanding 11+ writing sections, especially for selective schools like The Crossley Heath School and North Halifax Grammar School. Our online writing tutors can provide targeted practice in creative writing, essay structure, comprehension, and vocabulary, helping your child develop the specific skills and confidence needed to excel in these crucial exams.
Are the online writing tutors familiar with the curriculum and expectations in Halifax schools?
Our tutors come from across the UK, bringing a wealth of experience. While they might not be local to Halifax specifically, they are experts in various exam boards and curricula. You can discuss your child's specific school requirements and the 11+ format for Halifax grammar schools with potential tutors, and they will tailor their approach to ensure your child receives highly relevant and effective support.
Is online writing tutoring only for academic subjects, or can my child learn other writing skills?
Not at all! While many parents focus on academic goals like the 11+ or GCSEs, our tutors can support a wide range of writing skills. Whether your child dreams of writing their own stories, needs help with personal statements for university applications, wants to improve their creative writing for fun, or even explores scriptwriting, we have tutors who can guide and inspire them.
What if my child doesn't get along with their first writing tutor?
We understand that finding the perfect match is important for your child's learning journey. 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. Your child's comfort and learning are our top priorities.
How do I choose the best online writing tutor for my child in Halifax?
We make it easy to find the ideal match. You can browse tutor profiles, watch their introduction videos, read reviews from other parents (our platform is rated 4.6 stars!), and even message tutors directly to discuss your child's specific needs, like preparing for the 11+ in Halifax. This way, you can feel truly confident in your choice.
How much does online writing tutoring typically cost?
The cost of online writing tutoring varies depending on the tutor's experience, qualifications, and the subject level. You'll find a range of prices on our platform, starting from around £20-£25 per hour, allowing you to choose an option that fits your budget while still providing high-quality, personalised support for your child.
How can an online writing tutor help my child build confidence?
One-to-one tutoring creates a truly safe and encouraging space for your child to learn. Their tutor will provide positive feedback, gently correct mistakes, and celebrate every small victory, whether it's understanding a tricky grammar concept or writing a more engaging paragraph. This personalised attention helps your child overcome anxieties, feel more capable, and ultimately become a more confident writer.
What happens during a typical online writing lesson?
Each lesson is tailored to your child's specific goals. Tutors use our interactive online classroom, which includes a virtual whiteboard, document sharing, and video chat. They might work on a specific essay, analyse a text together, practice creative writing prompts, or focus on grammar exercises – all with immediate feedback and guidance to help your child improve.
Is online tutoring safe for my child?
Your child's safety is incredibly important to us. We rigorously vet all our tutors, accepting only 1 in 8 applicants and ensuring every tutor undergoes enhanced background checks. Our lessons take place in a secure online environment, and we encourage parents to be nearby or involved as much as they feel comfortable.
How will I know if my child is making progress in their writing?
Your child's tutor will provide regular feedback on their progress, highlighting areas of improvement and next steps. You'll often see direct improvements in their schoolwork, confidence, and exam practice results. Many parents also notice their child becoming more enthusiastic about writing, which is a wonderful sign of growing confidence and skill.
Can a writing tutor support my child beyond the 11+ exam?
Absolutely! While the 11+ is a significant milestone, strong writing skills are essential for GCSE English, A-Level essays, and even university applications. An online writing tutor can provide continuous support, adapting their focus as your child progresses through different academic stages, ensuring they maintain and develop their writing proficiency.
How can an online writing tutor help my child build confidence?
To get started, your child will need a computer or tablet, a reliable internet connection, and ideally a webcam and microphone. Our online classroom is easy to use, and our support team is always on hand if you have any technical questions, ensuring a smooth and stress-free learning experience.
