It's Not About Fixing, It's About Finding Their Strengths
Dyslexia support isn't about changing who your child is; it's about giving them the right tools to navigate a world often built for a different way of thinking. When they discover strategies that work for them, it's about more than just better grades. It’s seeing them tackle a homework task without a battle, feeling proud of a piece of written work, and knowing they have the skills to face their GCSEs and even aspire to brilliant local institutions like the University of Gloucestershire.

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...

My son achieved a grade 5 in his English Language GCSE exam today. This was his 3rd resit. He was recently diagnosed with dyslexia and he would not have done this without Sobia's tutoring. Thank you so much Sobia!

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
We're worried about the 11+ in Gloucester. Can an online tutor help a child with dyslexia prepare?
Absolutely. This is a common concern for parents in Gloucestershire. An online tutor can work with your child on specific strategies for exam timings, question comprehension, and building the literacy and reasoning skills needed, all whilst boosting their confidence for the big day.
Is online tutoring as effective as in-person support for dyslexia?
Yes, for many children it's even more effective. Online sessions use interactive tools, screen sharing, and digital resources that are highly engaging. Plus, your child learns in their own comfortable space, and you get access to top dyslexia specialists from across the UK, not just who is available locally in Gloucester.
My child's school has some support, but I feel they need more. How does tutoring fit in?
We see tutoring as a partnership that complements schoolwork. A tutor provides dedicated, one-to-one attention that teachers, with the best will in the world, can't always offer in a busy classroom. We can reinforce what they're learning at school and introduce new strategies tailored specifically to them.
What happens if my child doesn't click with the first tutor?
The right fit is everything, and we're committed to helping you find it. If the first session with a tutor isn't quite right, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk. We will cover the cost of your first lesson with a new tutor to ensure you find the perfect match.
How do you find and vet your dyslexia specialist tutors?
We're very selective – only 1 in 8 tutors who apply are accepted. All our tutors undergo a rigorous application process, including interviews and background checks. We specifically look for tutors with proven experience and qualifications in supporting students with specific learning differences like dyslexia.
How much do online dyslexia tutors cost for a student in Gloucester?
Our tutors set their own rates, typically starting from around £25 per hour. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and specialist qualifications. You can browse profiles and filter by price to find a brilliant tutor who fits your family's budget.
My child's confidence has been affected across all subjects. Can a tutor help with more than just English?
Yes, definitely. Dyslexia can impact confidence in subjects like history, science, and even maths due to word-based problems. Many of our tutors can help build core literacy and study skills that your child can apply across the entire curriculum, helping them feel more capable everywhere.
What technology do we need for online lessons?
It's simple. All you need is a laptop or tablet with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our platform has a built-in video classroom with an interactive whiteboard, making lessons engaging and easy to join.
How long are the sessions and how often should my child have them?
Most sessions are one hour long. We generally find that one session a week is a great starting point for consistent progress. However, the frequency is completely flexible and can be discussed with your tutor to fit your child's needs and your family's schedule.
Beyond academic subjects, do you offer any other type of tutoring?
We do! We believe in learning for life. Alongside core subjects, we have tutors who specialise in everything from coding and music production to public speaking and learning a new language. It's all about helping your child find what they love and build skills for the future.
Can I see reviews from other parents?
Of course. Transparency is really important to us. Every tutor profile features reviews and ratings from other parents and students. With over 4,100 reviews on our platform, you can get a real sense of a tutor's teaching style and success.
My child's confidence has been affected across all subjects. Can a tutor help with more than just English?
Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's development. This isn't just about grades; it's about seeing their confidence grow, their willingness to tackle difficult tasks improve, and hearing them talk more positively about their learning. It's a journey you'll be on together.
