What Does Grammar and Writing Tutoring Cover?

Grammar and writing tutoring helps students build the language skills behind every subject: parts of speech, sentence structure, punctuation, usage, and the ability to organize ideas into clear paragraphs and essays. Tutors work on the student’s own assignments, from elementary sentence writing to high school essays and college papers, and connect grammar rules to real writing.

Growing Stars provides personalized, one-on-one online grammar and writing tutoring for students of all ages, with the same dedicated tutor in every session and support from an Education Manager.

Grammar and Writing Tutoring

Build Clear, Confident Writing with 1-on-1 Support

Strong grammar is what makes writing clear. Students who understand how sentences work can express ideas precisely, avoid errors that cost points, and revise their own work with confidence. Grammar gaps tend to grow over time, showing up as run-on sentences, unclear paragraphs, and lower scores on essays and standardized tests.

Growing Stars tutors teach grammar in the context of the student’s own writing, so rules stick. Sessions can focus on homework, essays, research papers, test preparation, or targeted grammar practice.

What Are the Most Common Grammar Mistakes?

Mistake Incorrect Correct
Run-on sentence I finished my essay I forgot to cite my sources. I finished my essay, but I forgot to cite my sources.
Sentence fragment Because the test was hard. Because the test was hard, I studied all week.
Subject-verb agreement The box of books are heavy. The box of books is heavy.
Its vs. it’s The dog wagged it’s tail. The dog wagged its tail.
Their, there, they’re Their going to the library. They’re going to the library.
Pronoun case Me and Sam wrote the report. Sam and I wrote the report.
Missing comma after an introductory phrase After the game we went home. After the game, we went home.

Grammar Example: Fixing a Run-On Sentence

The science fair is on Friday we still need to finish our poster.

Step 1: Find the complete thoughts

“The science fair is on Friday” and “we still need to finish our poster” can each stand alone as a sentence.

Step 2: Choose a way to join them

Two complete sentences can be joined with a period, a semicolon, or a comma plus a conjunction such as “and,” “but,” or “so.”

Step 3: Rewrite

“The science fair is on Friday, and we still need to finish our poster.” Or: “The science fair is on Friday; we still need to finish our poster.”

Fixing a run-on by adding only a comma creates a comma splice, which is still an error. Tutors help students recognize complete thoughts so they can choose the right fix every time.
