Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

Can a writing tutor help my child prepare for competitive schools like Northampton School for Boys or Girls?

Absolutely. Our experienced writing tutors can help your child develop the advanced essay writing, critical thinking, and analytical skills needed to meet the high academic standards of schools like Northampton School for Boys and Northampton School for Girls. They'll focus on refining structure, analysis, and clarity to give your child a strong advantage.

How can writing tutoring help my child with university applications to places like Warwick or Birmingham?

Strong writing is crucial for university applications. A tutor can help your child craft compelling personal statements, refine their academic writing style, and develop the critical analysis skills expected at top universities like Warwick or Birmingham, ensuring their application stands out.

Is writing tutoring only for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills too?

While our writing tutors specialise in academic subjects like English and History, Tutorful offers a wide range of tutors for other skills too! Your child could learn a new language, coding, an instrument like the guitar, or even develop skills for a hobby. It's all about personal development.

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

We want you and your child to feel completely comfortable. 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. It's our 'First Lesson Guarantee' to ensure you find the perfect match.

How do I pick the best online writing tutor for my child?

We make it easy to find the perfect match. You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and even message tutors directly to discuss your child's specific writing needs and goals. Consider their experience with GCSEs, A-Levels, or specific subjects like English or History.

How can a writing tutor help my child build confidence?

Confidence often comes from understanding and practice. A one-to-one writing tutor provides a safe, supportive space for your child to ask questions, make mistakes, and improve at their own pace.

My child struggles with essay planning. Can a tutor help with that specifically?

Definitely. Essay planning and structure are key areas where a writing tutor can provide immense support.
