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...

Sobia S
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!

Athina is a wonderful dyslexia tutor who is patient and friendly. Her expert knowledge of dyslexia and specified teaching style make each session incredibly engaging. Her supportive nature makes my daughter feel understood and encouraged to learn. She celebrates my daughter's progress, no matter how small, which pushes her to read more.

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 secondary school in Leeds and I worry their needs are overlooked. How can a tutor help?
We hear this from many parents in Leeds. In larger classes, it's tough for teachers to provide focused support. An online tutor gives your child the one-to-one attention they need, creating a space where it's safe to ask questions and build skills without pressure. It's a powerful way to complement their school learning.
Can tutoring help my child with the skills needed for institutions like Leeds Beckett or the University of Leeds?
Absolutely. Our tutors focus on building sustainable skills for the future. They can help your child develop the advanced reading, note-taking, and essay-writing strategies that are essential for success in higher education, giving them the confidence to tackle degree-level work.
Is online tutoring really effective for a child with Dyslexia?
Yes, it can be incredibly effective. Online sessions often use interactive tools, whiteboards, and resources that are highly engaging for learners with Dyslexia. Plus, learning from the comfort of home can reduce anxiety and help your child focus, all whilst getting support from a specialist perfectly matched to them.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first Dyslexia tutor?
Finding the right personality match is crucial, and we want you both to feel comfortable. If it's not the right fit after the first session, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first lesson with a new tutor.
We’ve seen our child’s self-esteem fall at their Leeds school. Does tutoring help with that too?
It's one of the most important things we focus on. When a child starts to understand their own learning style and sees themselves making real progress, their confidence grows immensely. Our tutors are brilliant at celebrating small wins and rebuilding that belief in themselves.
How do you ensure tutors are qualified to support students with Dyslexia?
We take this very seriously. Many of our tutors are qualified teachers with specific certifications and extensive experience in supporting students with Special Educational Needs (SEN), including Dyslexia. You can view each tutor's qualifications and experience on their profile to find the right expert.
How much does online Dyslexia tutoring for a student in Leeds cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, so prices vary based on their experience and qualifications. You can easily filter tutors by price on our website to find a specialist who fits your family's budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
My child's Dyslexia affects subjects like History and Science. Can you help with that?
Yes. Many of our subject-specific tutors also have experience supporting students with Dyslexia. They can help your child with strategies for reading dense textbooks, structuring essays, and revising for exams in any subject they're finding tricky.
What equipment does my child need for online tutoring?
It's very simple. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our interactive online classroom has everything else they'll need for an engaging lesson.
How long are the sessions and how often should we have them?
Most sessions are one hour long. We generally find that one session a week is a great rhythm for consistent progress, but you can arrange a schedule that works for your child and your family directly with your chosen tutor.
Do you offer support for adults with Dyslexia in Leeds?
We do. Learning is a lifelong process, and we have many tutors who specialise in supporting adult learners, whether it's for university studies, professional development, or personal growth. It's never too late to find new strategies.
How much does online Dyslexia tutoring for a student in Leeds cost?
You'll see it in a few ways. Tutors provide feedback after each session to keep you updated on progress. But often, the first signs are at home – a willingness to tackle homework, a new sense of pride in their work, and seeing their confidence grow.
