Creative Writing
Why Is It Important to Start Creative Writing from a Young Age?
The UK is known for its rich literary and creative heritage. In this environment, it’s essential for children to develop the ability to think independently and express themselves clearly. Creative Writing is more than just writing stories—it helps children build creativity, critical thinking, self-expression, and strong communication skills.
When children learn to put their thoughts and emotions into words from an early age, they naturally develop confidence and problem-solving abilities. These skills support not only academic success but also open doors to a wide range of future career paths. As creative industries like film, media, and publishing continue to grow, storytelling has become a powerful and practical skill.
In a multicultural society like the UK, being able to share one’s background and experiences through writing also helps children strengthen their identity and self-esteem.
Give your child the gift of learning how to express their thoughts through writing—it’s a skill that lasts a lifetime!

Your Questions Answered
-
Safeguarding is essential in tutoring, whether it's conducted in person or online.
Background Checks and References
Qualified tutors must undergo appropriate background checks, including a Disclosure and Barring Service (DBS) check. This process helps identify any criminal history that could present a risk.
Additional Safeguards
Even with a DBS check, parents should take extra precautions. We recommend the following:
Avoid holding lessons in a bedroom. It’s best to have lessons in a central area, like the kitchen table.
For online tutoring, use parental controls on the devices your child uses to monitor and limit access to inappropriate content.
Discuss privacy measures with your tutor, such as recording the lesson for future use, using a virtual whiteboard, and limiting screen sharing to the necessary materials.
Sit in on the first lesson or two, especially if your child is younger. Gradually allow more independence as you get to know the tutor and build trust.
Keep the door open so you’re within earshot.
Regularly ask your child about their experience with the tutor. Make sure they feel comfortable sharing any concerns. Teach your child about online safety and appropriate behavior, and encourage them to talk to you if they feel uncomfortable.
Stay in communication with the tutor. Address any concerns right away and keep an open line for ongoing dialogue.
Trust your instincts. If something doesn’t feel right, discuss it with us immediately.

If you’re seeking someone skilled and trained to teach, opt for a qualified tutor. While this may seem obvious, a tutor with the right teaching qualifications will have hands-on experience working with children in your child’s age group and specific subject. A qualified tutor is a subject matter expert who can monitor progress, communicate with your child’s school (if needed), and stay informed about the latest curriculum updates and exam standards.
We offer high-quality tuition at home with fully qualified teachers. All our tutors are experienced professionals, carefully vetted by us, and hold enhanced DBS checks.

One-on-one tuition is available either online or offline, depending on your location. This type of tuition provides focused support, making it ideal for children who may get distracted in groups or need extra help to build self-esteem and confidence in learning.
