Getting better at English requires consistent habits: read actively, plan your essays before you write and review your teacher's comments carefully.

• Outline your essays: a clear thesis statement and a list of supporting points before you write keeps your argument on track from introduction to conclusion.
• Revise and edit carefully: revision is where good writing becomes great: check for clarity, trim unnecessary words and make sure every paragraph supports your thesis.
• Learn from your mistakes: reviewing the comments on graded essays and applying those corrections to your next assignment is one of the fastest ways to improve.

A private tutor can work through your graded assignments with you and turn each correction into a learning opportunity.
