Rosie has been really patient with our little one. He is learning to read and practicing phonics, he is also in the autism spectrum what makes the lessons more challenging. She has been able to help him to engage in the lessons but also understands when he is not in his best mood, thanks Rosie

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child attends Dronfield Henry Fanshawe School. Can a tutor help them manage the academic and social demands there?
Yes, absolutely. Our tutors can provide support that complements your child's school life. They can help with specific academic subjects, but also work on organisational skills, managing homework, and building social confidence to help them navigate the school environment more comfortably.
We're navigating the EHC plan process in Derbyshire. Can a tutor provide consistent support during this time?
Yes. Having a consistent, supportive figure can be incredibly beneficial during the EHC process. A tutor can provide stable, ongoing educational and emotional support, helping to keep your child's confidence and learning on track while you're managing the administrative side of things.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
It's so important that your child feels comfortable with their tutor. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How do I choose the right tutor for my autistic child?
You can read detailed tutor profiles which include their experience, qualifications, and reviews from other parents. Many tutors will mention their specific experience with autism and SEN. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs before booking to find the perfect fit.
How are your tutors vetted for working with children with special educational needs?
We take safety and quality very seriously. All our tutors are background-checked and we interview every applicant. We only accept 1 in 8 who apply, ensuring you're choosing from highly qualified and experienced individuals. Many tutors on our platform have specific qualifications and extensive experience in SEN.
How much does an Autism tutor cost in Dronfield?
The cost varies depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, starting from around £25 per hour. There are no hidden fees or contracts, so you can find someone who fits your budget.
How can online tutoring work for a child with sensory needs?
Online tutoring can be ideal. Your child can learn from the comfort and familiarity of their own home, using their own equipment. This controlled environment often helps reduce sensory overload, allowing them to focus better on the session. You can also discuss any specific sensory needs with the tutor beforehand.
Can tutoring help my child with social anxiety or building confidence?
Definitely. The one-to-one setting is a safe space for your child to practise social interaction with a trusted adult. A great tutor will celebrate small wins, gently encourage them, and help build their self-esteem, which often has a positive impact on their confidence in and out of school.
Is this just for academic subjects, or can a tutor help with life skills and hobbies?
It's for much more than just academic subjects! While many tutors help with Maths or English, you can also find tutors for life skills, coding, learning a musical instrument like the guitar, and much more. It's all about supporting your child's development and interests.
What happens in a typical first session?
The first session is usually about getting to know each other. The tutor will chat with you and your child to understand their goals, strengths, and areas where they need support. It's a relaxed way to build rapport and make sure it's a good match before continuing.
How long are the tutoring sessions?
Sessions are typically one hour long, but you can arrange different lengths with your tutor. For some children, shorter, more frequent sessions of 30 or 45 minutes might work better. It's flexible and can be tailored to your child's concentration and needs.
Can I speak to the tutor before booking a lesson?
Yes, we encourage it! You can message tutors for free before booking to discuss your child's needs, ask questions about their approach, and get a feel for their personality. This helps ensure you find the very best person to support your child.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
