The One-to-One Dyslexia Support Your Child Deserves
A great tutor sees the brilliant, creative thinker your child is. They take the time to understand exactly how your child processes information, celebrating their unique strengths and building a genuine partnership. It's in these moments of feeling truly seen and understood that your child starts to believe in themselves again, moving from 'I can't' to 'Let me try'. Forget one-size-fits-all worksheets. A session might focus on using mind-mapping software to plan an essay, finding assistive tech that makes revision easier, or practising specific techniques to decode complex exam questions. Every lesson is shaped around your child's immediate needs, turning points of frustration into moments of achievement and making tangible progress towards their goals in Kettering. Because tutoring is online, your family has access to the very best Dyslexia specialists from all over the UK, not just whoever happens to live nearby. You can schedule sessions around your busy life without any travel stress. It's expert, tailored support delivered right to your home in Kettering, when it works for you.

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
My child is at a large Kettering school like KSA or Bishop Stopford. Can tutoring really make a difference?
Absolutely. Whilst schools do their best, a one-to-one online tutor can provide the focused, personalised attention that's hard to get in a class of 30. We can work alongside their school curriculum, reinforcing learning and building specific strategies that directly address the challenges they face, ensuring they don't fall behind.
We're worried about text-heavy GCSEs limiting A-Level choices at Tresham College. How can a tutor help?
This is a very common concern, and it's exactly where a specialist tutor can help most. They work on practical strategies for managing cognitive load, improving reading comprehension under pressure, and structuring answers effectively. The goal is to give your child the tools and confidence to show their knowledge, so their GCSE results truly reflect their ability and open up the right doors for their future studies.
How does online tutoring work for a child with Dyslexia?
It works incredibly well. Our online classroom has interactive tools like whiteboards that are perfect for visual learning. Tutors can share resources, use assistive technology, and tailor the environment to be distraction-free. Plus, your child learns from the comfort and security of their own home in Kettering, which can often help them feel more relaxed and focused.
What if my child doesn't get on with the first tutor we try?
Finding the right personality fit is so important. We have a first lesson guarantee to ensure you do. If you don't feel the first tutor is the perfect match, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.
Are your tutors actually qualified to teach children with Dyslexia?
Yes. Many of our tutors are qualified teachers, have specific SEN qualifications, or extensive experience working with students with Dyslexia. We are incredibly selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply. You can view each tutor's full experience and qualifications on their profile to find the perfect expert for your child.
How much does online Dyslexia tutoring cost for a student in Kettering?
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 long-term contracts, so you have complete flexibility.
How long are the tutoring sessions and how often should they be?
Sessions are typically one hour long, and most families find one session a week is a great starting point. However, it's completely flexible. You and your tutor can decide on the best frequency and duration to fit your child's needs and your family's schedule.
Does my child need any special equipment for online lessons?
All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is browser-based, so there's no complex software to install. It's simple and easy to get started.
Can tutoring help with my child's confidence as well as their schoolwork?
This is one of the biggest benefits we see. When a child with Dyslexia finally feels understood and starts to see they *can* succeed with the right strategies, their self-esteem grows immensely. That newfound confidence often has a positive impact on all their subjects, not just the one they're focusing on.
How do you ensure tutors are safe to work with children?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform must have a valid DBS check and provide professional references. We interview every tutor to ensure they have the right expertise and a passion for teaching before they can join Tutorful.
Can we get help for subjects other than English and maths?
Of course. We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects. Whether it's support for science, history, learning a musical instrument, or even coding, we can connect you with an expert tutor. Learning should be about exploring passions as well as core subjects.
How long are the tutoring sessions and how often should they be?
You can easily browse our selection of specialist online tutors. You can filter by their experience, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos. You can also send messages to tutors before booking to make sure they're the perfect fit for your child's needs and personality.
