Building Skills That Open Doors to University and Beyond
Effective dyslexia support isn't just about passing the next test; it's about giving your child the tools to shape their own future. When they develop strategies to manage reading and organise their thoughts, it transforms their ability to tackle challenging GCSE and A-Level coursework. This is what builds a strong application for competitive courses at institutions like the University of Bristol or UWE. It's the key that allows their intelligence and creativity to shine through, opening up career paths they might have thought were closed to them.

Personalised Online Dyslexia Support for Your Bristol Learner
The right tutor doesn't just teach; they connect. They take the time to understand how your child sees the world, identifying their unique strengths and the specific points where they get stuck. This isn't a one-size-fits-all approach. It’s a partnership built on trust and understanding, creating strategies that work for your child and watching them have that 'I can do this!' moment, again and again. Imagine lessons where multi-sensory techniques make spelling patterns click, or where digital tools help break down complex texts into manageable chunks. Our tutors create sessions that are engaging and effective, moving beyond frustration towards real progress. Each lesson builds on the last, replacing anxiety with a growing sense of control and academic confidence, tailored specifically to your child's learning style. Because all our tutoring is online, your family's busy schedule is never a barrier to the best support. There's no travel across Bristol after school – just effective, focused learning from the comfort of home. This flexibility means your child in Bristol gets access to a top specialist from anywhere in the UK, not just whoever happens to live nearby. It's expert support that fits seamlessly into your life.

Dyslexia Confused about Maths? :-/ I can make it clear :-)
I hope from my picture you can see my sessions are very different from the traditional classroom. I am a qualified Maths teacher with a Bachelor's in Engineering and Mathematics.But however many qualifications I have the lesson is fundamentally about you and your way of learning and not me. Studies have shown that playing and exploring as a form of learning is much more effective than repetition and memorising alone.Through years of working with students, I've found this to be true.The more the student is engaged and involved in the lesson the more they learn.My goal is to make maths and our session...

Jasmine U
Having learning difficulties, I thought I would feel uncomfortable in the first lesson; however, Jasmine is lovely.
Jasmine gave me detailed feedback on my A Level Business assignment in regards to layout and improvements in my academic writing.
She also gave me examples I could include in my assignment to achieve the highest grade possible on the assignment. Jasmine kindly wrote me a list of things that she discussed in the lesson so that I wouldn't forget, which was helpful.
Additionally, Jasmine asked me if I had any questions I had near the end, so I was reassured or if I had any doubts. She is very friendly, and I was able to communicate with her without feeling shy.
I would highly recommend Jasmine as a tutor.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is in a large Bristol comprehensive. Can a tutor provide the consistent, individual support they need?
Absolutely. This is where one-to-one online tutoring really shines. A dedicated tutor can provide the focused, patient support that's often difficult to deliver in a busy classroom. They can tailor every single session to your child's specific needs, helping them build strategies and confidence at their own pace.
Can a tutor help my child develop the skills needed for entry to universities like the University of Bristol or UWE?
Yes. Our specialist tutors can help your child master the higher-level skills needed for A-Levels and university applications. This includes things like effective essay structuring, critical analysis, and robust revision techniques, all tailored to work with their way of thinking, helping them to demonstrate their full academic ability.
Is online tutoring as effective for a child with dyslexia as meeting in person?
Many parents find it's even more effective. Online sessions allow for the use of fantastic digital tools, from interactive whiteboards to assistive reading software. Plus, your child learns from the comfort and security of their own home in Bristol, and you get access to the best dyslexia specialists from across the UK, not just your immediate area.
What if my child doesn't click with the first tutor we try?
It's really important that your child feels comfortable with their tutor. We have a first lesson guarantee, so if it's not the right fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How do you ensure your dyslexia tutors are high quality?
We're very selective. Only 1 in 8 tutors who apply are accepted onto our platform. All tutors are background-checked and interviewed to assess their subject expertise, experience, and ability to teach in an engaging, supportive way. Many have specific qualifications and extensive experience in supporting students with dyslexia.
What technology do we need for online lessons?
It's simple. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam and microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is easy to use and has all the tools needed for an interactive lesson, including a whiteboard and document sharing.
How much does online dyslexia tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile. There are no hidden fees or contracts, so you can find an excellent tutor that fits your family's budget.
Will tutoring just focus on my child's weaknesses?
Not at all. A great tutor also identifies and builds on your child's strengths. Dyslexia is often associated with fantastic creativity and problem-solving skills. Our tutors work to build overall confidence, helping your child see and use their strengths whilst developing strategies for their challenges.
How often should my child have a session?
We find that a one-hour session once a week is most effective for consistent progress. However, the schedule is completely flexible and can be arranged directly with your tutor to fit your child's needs and your family's routine.
What age groups can you help?
We have specialist tutors who can support learners of all ages, from primary school children who are just starting to read and write, right through to GCSE and A-Level students, and even adults at university or in the workplace.
Can tutoring help with specific challenges like organisation or revision?
Definitely. Dyslexia support goes far beyond just reading and spelling. Tutors can help your child develop crucial executive function skills, such as organising their notes, planning essays, and creating effective, multi-sensory revision plans for their exams.
How much does online dyslexia tutoring cost?
We have tutors for over 300 subjects! So alongside academic support, your child could learn a new language, master a musical instrument like the guitar or piano, or even explore skills like coding. It's all about following their interests.
