I have over 30 years' experience teaching English in secondary education and at university level, and have also trained and worked as an A-level English literature examiner. Through in-depth knowledge of exam requirements, focusing on both knowledge and skills, and structured coaching and revision, my students achieve high grades consistently, growing in skills and confidence as they do so.Some of my proudest momentswere seeing Mark and Hanson pass their Common Entrance to gain places at Eton; Mei completing a journey from barely functional English to an 8 in English Literature GCSE within 18 months;...

David J
Experienced Writing Tutor
When it comes to History, I have always loved the subject, leading me to secure my place at the University of Leeds and to follow through my degree and gain a 2:1. While doing so, I had a fantastic time living in Leeds, which is why I came back to live here. My focus was on the British Empire, but having studied History all the way through school and university, my experience with the subject is very broad. For example I studied Britain from 1880-1980 and Nazi Germany at A Level, and American foreign policy and race relations and the Russian Revolution at GCSE. History is one of the most important...

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...

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.
We're aiming for a place at Queen Katherine School or Kirkbie Kendal. Can a tutor help with the entrance exams?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in 11+ and entrance exam preparation. They have experience helping children develop the specific creative and structured writing skills needed to perform well under exam conditions, building their confidence for the big day.
My child is older and thinking about university. Can a tutor help with applications to places like Lancaster University?
Yes, definitely. Our tutors can provide excellent support with UCAS applications and personal statements. They can help your child structure their thoughts, showcase their strengths, and write a compelling statement that stands out to admissions teams at competitive universities.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right relationship is key to learning. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, just 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 Writing tutor for my child?
You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check their qualifications and experience. You can also message tutors before booking to discuss your child's specific needs and make sure it's a good fit. It's all about finding someone your child will connect with.
Is tutoring just for academic subjects like Writing?
Not at all! While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects, we believe in learning for life. Your child can also learn a musical instrument like the guitar, a new language, or even practical skills like coding. There's a huge range of subjects to explore.
Can a tutor help if my child lacks confidence in their writing?
Building confidence is at the heart of what our tutors do. In a one-to-one setting, your child gets a safe space to try new ideas and make mistakes without fear of judgement. This patient, personalised encouragement is often the key to helping them believe in their own abilities.
How much does online Writing tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile. There are no hidden fees or contracts, so you can find quality support that fits your family's budget.
How do you make sure the tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. We have a strict vetting process and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor is background-checked and has their ID and qualifications verified, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How do the online lessons work?
Our online classroom is simple to use and has everything your child needs. There's an interactive whiteboard for brainstorming ideas, a space to share documents and work on essays together, and face-to-face video chat. It’s just like being in the same room, but with more powerful learning tools.
How often should my child have a lesson?
This is completely flexible and depends on your child's goals. Many families find a weekly session works well for consistent progress, but you might want more frequent lessons leading up to an exam. You can discuss and agree on the best schedule directly with your chosen tutor.
Will tutoring actually improve my child's grades?
We have a great track record of helping students succeed. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. With over 200,000 happy students and a 4.6-star rating from thousands of reviews, we're confident we can help your child achieve their goals.
How much does online Writing tutoring cost?
It's very simple. All you need is a laptop or computer, a stable internet connection, and a webcam with a microphone. Our online classroom runs directly in your web browser, so there's no complicated software to install.
