About us
Tutors who read every word
Learn2Write began with a simple frustration: children were being given writing practice, but almost no useful feedback on it. We built a service where a real tutor reads each piece and says exactly what to do next.

Our belief
Feedback is the lesson
Children do not improve by writing more. They improve by writing, being shown precisely what worked and what did not, and then writing again with that knowledge.
Every assignment we set is pitched just beyond the pupil's current level, with planning guidance before they start and marked feedback afterwards. Parents see the same feedback, so progress is never a mystery.
For 11+ candidates we add exam conditions: unseen titles, strict timing and marking against the criteria grammar and independent schools actually use.
