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 Richard Lander School. Can a tutor help with their specific homework and learning needs?
Absolutely. Our tutors can work directly with the topics and homework your child brings from school. They can help break down tasks, explain concepts in a way that clicks for your child, and build the organisational skills needed to manage their workload effectively.
We're worried about the transition to Truro College. Can a tutor help prepare my child for that next step?
Yes, this is a common goal for many families. A tutor can be a great support during this transition. They can help your child develop the independent study skills, time management techniques, and self-advocacy skills needed to succeed in a college environment.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
Finding the right personality match is so important, and we want you to be completely happy. That's why we have a 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 do I find the right Autism tutor for my child?
You can use our search filters to find tutors with specific experience in supporting autistic students. We recommend reading their profiles, checking their qualifications and reviews from other parents, and sending a message to a few to chat about your child's needs before booking.
Are your tutors qualified to support children with autism?
Many of our tutors are qualified teachers, SEN specialists, or have extensive experience and training in supporting autistic children. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, and you can view each tutor's specific qualifications and experience on their profile to find the perfect fit.
How much does an Autism tutor in Truro cost?
The cost varies depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Prices are clearly listed on each tutor's profile, so you can find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
How does online tutoring work for a child with autism?
Our online classroom has tools like an interactive whiteboard which many children enjoy. For some, learning from the comfort and familiarity of home can reduce anxiety. A great tutor will work with you and your child to make the online environment a calm, engaging, and effective space for learning.
Can a tutor help with my child's EHCP goals?
Yes, many parents find tutoring is a great way to provide targeted support for the goals outlined in an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP). You can share these goals with your chosen tutor so they can create a learning plan that directly contributes to them.
How can tutoring help my child feel more confident?
One-to-one attention from a supportive tutor creates a safe space where your child can ask questions without fear of being judged. By mastering new skills and overcoming challenges at their own pace, they experience consistent success, which is a fantastic confidence-booster.
How long are the tutoring sessions?
Sessions are typically one hour long, but you can arrange different lengths with your tutor. It's all about finding what works best for your child's concentration and your family's schedule.
How do I know if tutoring is making a difference?
Tutors provide regular feedback to help you see the progress your child is making. The biggest signs are often the ones you'll notice at home – a child who is less stressed about homework, more willing to try new things, and more confident in their own abilities.
Is this just for academic subjects, or can you help with life skills and hobbies too?
While we have experts in all academic subjects, we also have tutors who can help your child explore hobbies like coding, learning a musical instrument like the guitar, or developing practical life skills. It's all about supporting your child's individual growth and interests.
