Raquel A
Supportive and Structured Writing Tutor
Hello and welcome! My name is Raquel and I look forward to meeting you soon. In the meantime, allow me to share with you why I choose to tutor: Mixed memories of middle school and college spring to mind. Excitement bubbling up to return to school after a fun and well spend summer holiday with family and friends. What formed part of the anticipation was the sense of being ready. Ready to sit in class with fellow classmates, ready to take home homework, planning and organising assignments.

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.

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
My child hopes to apply to Brockenhurst College. Can a tutor help them prepare for the level of writing required?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students transition to A-Level study. They can work with your child to develop the analytical and essay-writing skills needed to meet the high standards of colleges like Brockenhurst, building their confidence from day one.
Can a tutor help with a personal statement for universities like Southampton or Bournemouth?
Yes, this is a very popular reason for seeking a writing tutor. They can help your child structure their thoughts, showcase their strengths, and write a compelling personal statement that stands out in competitive university applications.
How do I choose the right writing tutor for my child?
You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message tutors for free before booking. Look for someone whose experience matches your child's goals, whether that's for GCSE exam technique or building foundational essay skills. The most important thing is finding a personality your child connects with.
How much does a writing tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, starting from £22 per hour. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can easily filter by price to find a great tutor who fits your budget, with no hidden fees.
How do the online lessons work?
Lessons take place in our secure online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It’s designed to be simple and engaging, allowing your child and their tutor to work together easily from your home in New Forest.
How do you check your tutors are safe and qualified?
We take your child's safety very seriously. Every UK-based tutor must pass an ID check and have an up-to-date DBS background check. We also interview every tutor and only accept 1 in 8 applicants, so you can be sure you're choosing from the best.
Can a tutor help if my child lacks confidence in their writing?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor provides a safe, encouraging space for your child to ask questions without fear of getting it wrong. By celebrating small wins and breaking down difficult tasks, they can help rebuild your child’s self-belief.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find a weekly one-hour session works best, as it creates consistency and momentum. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange sessions with your tutor to fit your child's needs and your family's schedule, whether that's a short-term boost before exams or ongoing weekly support.
How quickly will we see an improvement in my child's writing?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our data shows that 90% of students improve by at least one grade with regular tutoring. The biggest change parents often notice first is a boost in their child's confidence and a more positive attitude towards their work.
Is this just for school subjects? My daughter is interested in creative writing as a hobby.
We offer tutoring for a huge range of subjects and skills, not just the school curriculum. Many of our writing tutors are passionate about creative writing, poetry, or journalism and would be delighted to help your daughter explore her interests.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you don't get on with your first tutor, simply email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How can I track my child's progress?
The best way is to have an open chat with your tutor. They will be happy to give you regular feedback on what they've been working on with your child and the progress they are making. It's a partnership between you, your child, and the tutor.
