Suddenly, securing those vital pass grades at GCSE feels achievable. This opens up their choices, making a path to A-Levels a real possibility, not just a hope, and proves that dyslexia is a different way of thinking, not a barrier to ambition.

The One-to-One Dyslexia Support Your Child Deserves
Imagine your child working with a tutor who truly understands their unique way of thinking. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you're choosing from the very best. They don't just teach techniques; they build a real connection, creating a safe space where your child feels confident enough to say, 'I don't understand that yet,' and knows they'll be met with patience, not pressure. A session isn't about rushing through a textbook. It's about finding what clicks. It might be using colour-coded mind maps to plan an essay or using tactile methods to grasp a tricky concept. This is where real progress happens – when learning is tailored to your child's strengths, turning points of frustration into moments of 'I've got this!' and building the confidence we know they have inside them. And this all happens online, fitting around your family's schedule in Dunstable. No extra travel after a long school day. It means your child can connect with a dyslexia specialist from anywhere in the UK, not just whoever is local. It’s expert support that comes to you, making life that little bit easier whilst giving your child a huge advantage.

Michael B
Friendly, enthusiastic Dyslexia Tutor
I absolutely love what I do, and channel that enthusiasm within each of my lessons. I believe a child can very easily see if a teacher is passionate about what they are teaching, which is why I believe only those who absolutely love their profession should teach. I want to provide the most engaging and challenging lesson for myself, because I hold very high standards for my quality of work, but more importantly, for the child. I want a child to leave each session safe in the knowledge that they have learnt something new that day.I like to approach each session differently, learning what interests...

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 at a large comprehensive in Dunstable. How can online tutoring help them keep up?
We hear this a lot from parents. In a busy classroom, it's hard for any child to get individual attention. An online tutor provides a focused, one-to-one space where your child is the sole priority. They can ask questions they might be too shy to ask in class and work at their own pace, reinforcing what they've learnt at school and building confidence.
We're worried about GCSE grades affecting post-16 options. Can a tutor specifically target this?
Absolutely. This is one of the main reasons families in Dunstable come to us. Our tutors are experts in the GCSE curriculum and can work with your child on exam technique, revision strategies, and understanding core concepts in English and Maths to help them secure the grades they need for their chosen sixth form or college pathway.
Is online tutoring as effective for dyslexia support as face-to-face?
Yes, and for many, it's even better. Online sessions use interactive tools like whiteboards, screen sharing, and educational apps that are brilliant for multi-sensory learning. Plus, your child in Dunstable gets access to top dyslexia specialists from across the UK, not just those who live nearby, ensuring they get the very best support.
What if my child doesn't click with their first dyslexia tutor?
Finding the right personality match is essential, and we want you both to be happy. We have a first lesson guarantee, so if it doesn't feel like the right fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.
How do you ensure your tutors are qualified to support a child with dyslexia?
Many of our tutors have specific qualifications and extensive experience in supporting students with Special Educational Needs, including dyslexia. You can view each tutor's full experience, qualifications, and parent reviews on their profile. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from highly vetted professionals.
How much does online dyslexia tutoring cost for a student in Dunstable?
Our tutors set their own rates based on their experience and qualifications, so prices vary. You can see each tutor's price per hour clearly on their profile. There are no hidden fees, and you can find an excellent, experienced tutor to fit your family's budget.
What technology do we need for an online lesson?
It's very simple. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam and microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our secure online classroom is easy to use and has all the tools they'll need, like an interactive whiteboard, built right in.
How long will it be before we see a change in our child's confidence?
Every child is different, but many parents tell us they notice a change in their child's attitude towards learning within just a few sessions. The biggest factor is having a supportive expert who believes in them. That boost in self-esteem is often the first, most important step.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, absolutely. Every tutor on our platform undergoes a thorough vetting process, which includes an identity check and an enhanced DBS check. We are committed to the safety of all our students.
My child's confidence has grown with their dyslexia tutor. Do you offer tutoring for other subjects?
We do! We have expert tutors across more than 300 subjects. From core academic subjects like Science and History to hobbies and skills like learning the guitar, coding, or a new language, we can help your child explore their passions and build their skills.
Can a tutor help my primary school-aged child as well as my teenager?
Yes. We have specialist tutors with experience across all age ranges. Whether you need support with phonics and reading in Key Stage 1 or complex essay writing for A-Levels, you can filter your search to find a tutor with the right experience for your child's specific age and needs.
What technology do we need for an online lesson?
That's a huge benefit of online tutoring. You can schedule sessions at times that suit your family, whether that's after school, on weekends, or even during school holidays. You arrange times directly with your tutor, so it fits perfectly around clubs, work, and other commitments.
