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
How do I choose the right Autism tutor for my child?
It's all about finding a great match. You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and see ratings from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs before booking a session to ensure you find the perfect fit.
My child attends a school in Portslade-by-Sea. Can a tutor help them with the social side of things?
Absolutely. Many of our specialist tutors are experienced in helping children navigate the social dynamics of school. They can use tools like social stories and role-playing to build your child's confidence in making friends, joining conversations, and understanding social cues in a busy environment.
We're thinking ahead to post-16 options like Varndean or BHASVIC. Can a tutor help my child prepare for that transition?
Yes, a tutor can be a brilliant source of support during this key transition. They can help your child develop the independent study skills, organisation techniques, and self-advocacy skills needed to thrive in a college environment, making the move from secondary school feel much less daunting.
How does online tutoring for an autistic child work?
Our online classroom is designed to be engaging and user-friendly. It includes an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing. Tutors can adapt the session to your child's needs, using visual aids and keeping sessions focused and calm, all from a familiar home environment.
What if my child doesn't click with the first tutor?
We know that the right relationship is key to success. That's why we have our first lesson guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How much does an Autism tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on experience, but you can filter by price to find a brilliant specialist tutor who fits your family's budget. There are no hidden fees or subscriptions.
Are your tutors experienced in working with autistic children?
Yes. Many tutors on our platform have specific qualifications, training, and extensive experience in supporting autistic children and young people. You can see their specific experience listed on their profiles to help you choose with confidence.
What safeguarding measures do you have in place?
Your child's safety is our top priority. All of our tutors must pass a background check before they can teach on our platform. All lessons are recorded, providing a safe and secure learning environment for everyone.
How can a tutor help my child with their confidence and anxiety?
A one-to-one tutor provides a safe, patient, and non-judgemental space. By celebrating small wins, breaking down overwhelming tasks, and building a strong rapport, a tutor can help your child see their own strengths, reducing anxiety and building genuine self-esteem.
Is tutoring just for academic subjects, or can you help with life skills and hobbies?
It's for much more than just academics! Alongside core subjects, our tutors can help your child with crucial life skills like organisation and emotional regulation, or even explore hobbies they're passionate about, such as coding, learning guitar, or creative writing.
How long are the tutoring sessions?
Sessions are typically an hour long, but you can arrange shorter or longer sessions directly with your tutor. For many children, especially younger ones, a shorter session of 30 or 45 minutes can be more effective, and our tutors are happy to be flexible.
How do I get started?
It's simple. Just use the search filters on our site to find tutors who specialise in Autism, read their profiles, and send a message to the ones you think would be a good fit for your child. You can be chatting with a potential tutor in minutes!
