Find An Expert Dyslexia Tutor For Learners In Exeter

Q: How can online tutoring help my child in Exeter with their text-heavy GCSEs?

Online sessions are ideal for this. Tutors use screen-sharing to break down complex texts, highlight key information together, and use digital tools to structure essays in real-time. This builds strategies your child can use in their exams to manage time and tackle challenging questions with confidence.

Q: Is online tutoring as effective as in-person for a child with dyslexia?

Many parents find it even more effective. Online tools like interactive whiteboards and specialist software can be incredibly engaging. Plus, it gives your Exeter-based child access to a wider pool of specialist tutors from across the UK, ensuring you find the perfect match for their specific needs, not just who is available locally.

Q: What happens if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

Finding the right personality match is essential. That's why we have a first lesson guarantee. If you don't get on with your first tutor for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

Q: How do you vet your dyslexia tutors?

We take this very seriously. We accept only 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor is background-checked, reference-checked, and interviewed by our team to ensure they have the expertise and empathy to support learners effectively. Many have specific qualifications in supporting students with SEN.

Q: How much do online dyslexia tutors cost?

Our tutors set their own rates, typically starting from around £25 per hour. You can filter tutors by price on our platform to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or long-term commitments.

Q: What do we need for an online tutoring session?

It's simple! All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam and microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom has all the tools they'll need, like an interactive whiteboard and file sharing, built right in.

Q: My child's confidence is very low. How can a tutor help with that?

This is at the heart of what we do. Our tutors are experts at creating a positive, encouraging environment. By breaking tasks into manageable steps and celebrating small wins, they help rebuild a child’s self-esteem and change their relationship with learning for the better.

Q: Can we arrange lessons around school clubs and other commitments?

Of course. That's a key benefit of online tutoring. You can view each tutor's availability on their profile and schedule sessions at times that work for your family, whether that's after school, on weekends, or during school holidays.

Q: My child also loves art. Do you offer tutoring in more creative subjects?

Yes, we do! We believe in supporting all of a child's talents. We have thousands of tutors covering over 300 subjects, from academic staples like Maths and English to creative pursuits like Art, Music, and even Animation. It's a great way to build their confidence.

Beyond Grades: Building Skills for Life

The right support for dyslexia isn't about memorising facts; it's about unlocking a new way of learning. It’s seeing your child finally organise their thoughts for an essay, or use a new technique to decode a tricky exam question. These are the skills that will empower them to tackle demanding A-Levels at Exeter College and thrive in degree-level study, perhaps even at the University of Exeter. It’s about building resilient, confident learners who know they are more than capable of achieving their goals.

The Right Dyslexia Support, Tailored for Your Child in Exeter

Imagine your child working with a tutor who just *gets* it. Someone who understands that their brain is wired differently, not that they aren't trying hard enough. Our tutors build a genuine connection, creating a safe space where your child feels seen, heard, and supported. It’s a partnership that rebuilds self-belief, one 'aha!' moment at a time. We've seen it happen with over 200,000 students, and it's a transformation we believe in. Our one-to-one online sessions are designed entirely around your child’s needs. A tutor might use interactive mind-mapping tools to plan a history essay, introduce assistive technology to help with reading comprehension, or use multi-sensory techniques to make spelling rules stick. It’s practical, personalised support that translates directly into progress they can see and feel, turning frustration into a sense of achievement. Because all our tutoring is online, your family’s busy schedule is never a barrier. No extra travel across Exeter after a long school day. Your child learns from the comfort of home, connecting with a specialist perfectly matched to them from anywhere in the UK.

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.
