English Language and Literature Writing English
Over the past 20 years, I have had the opportunity to develop my teaching skills, gaining valuable experience in teaching learners who need extra support to overcome barriers to achieving.

My qualifications such as BA(Hons) Degree in Education where I used Autism in the classroom as my Dissertation, Certificate in Education, L3 Awareness in ASD and L5 Adult Specialist in English , are necessary to implement resources to motivate such barriers and complex needs, including...

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...

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 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!

How do I choose the right writing tutor for my child?
On our platform, you can filter tutors by subject, level, and availability. Each tutor has a detailed profile with their experience, qualifications, reviews from other parents, and an introductory video. You can also send them a message before booking to ensure they’re the right fit.

The cost varies depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Prices are clearly listed on each tutor's profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
