Improve Grades and Test Scores In High School Writing
Working with a high school writing tutor can help you improve your grades and test scores in many ways. Tutoring can improve grades and scores for eight out of ten students.
The extra time and attention that is given during private tutoring are invaluable; it gives you a chance to focus on the material you need the most help with, which can increase your grades.

And, during school breaks and summer vacation, your tutor can work with you to keep your skills sharp.
How much does a high school writing tutor cost?
The price of high school writing tutoring varies depending on many factors. If you need a little help with a writing test essay, the amount you pay will be different than needing help throughout your entire writing course.
If you choose our high school writing class instead of or in addition to private tutoring, the rate will vary as well. You can work with someone who has a Ph.D. in creative writing and a published novel, or someone who has been tutoring writing for many years. There are so many variables that are considered; it is best to reach out to get a customized price quote.
How does online high school writing tutoring work?
Online tutoring is practical and easy with our exclusive Live Learning Platform. You can meet with your instructor face-to-face and interact with them using video-chat.
The platform can be accessed from any device with a secure internet connection, including a smartphone or tablet. Working with your tutor allows you to have your questions answered immediately, something that is not available when you use pre-recorded video tutorials and downloadable study guides.

If you are struggling to write a persuasive essay, your tutor can use multiple approaches and different techniques to help until you find the right one that works for you.
