Beyond Reading and Writing: Building a Confident Future
This isn't just about navigating text; it's about building the self-belief to tackle any challenge. When your child develops personalised strategies for revision, they'll see their GCSE grades reflect their hard work. Imagine them walking into their sixth form interview with confidence, knowing they have the tools to succeed. This is how a path towards a respected university like Leicester or Loughborough opens up – not by 'fixing' dyslexia, but by learning to work with it brilliantly.

A Partnership for Progress: How We Support Your Child
It all starts with a simple conversation. The right tutor takes the time to understand your child as a person, not just a student. They'll explore how your child thinks, what makes them curious, and where the frustration comes from. It's this genuine connection that builds trust and creates a space where your child feels safe to say, 'I don't understand that yet'. Forget one-size-fits-all worksheets. A session might involve using multi-sensory techniques to grasp complex vocabulary, or breaking down essay structures with mind maps. Each lesson is a collaborative step forward, building on what works for your child. It's in these moments – when a new revision method finally clicks – that they begin to see their own potential and feel in control of their learning. This partnership works around your family's life in Market Harborough. There are no extra journeys after school, just effective, focused support from home. We connect you with the UK's best dyslexia specialists, not just tutors who happen to live nearby. It means your child gets the expert support they deserve, right when they need it.

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 goes to a competitive school in the Market Harborough area like Robert Smyth. Can a tutor help them keep pace?
Absolutely. This is a common goal for parents we work with. Our tutors specialise in building personalised learning strategies that work with dyslexia. They'll partner with your child to develop effective revision techniques and organisational skills, ensuring their hard work and intelligence are reflected in their GCSE results.
We're aiming for a place at a university like Leicester or Loughborough. How can a tutor support this long-term goal?
Our tutors help build the foundational skills and confidence needed for higher education. They focus on crucial areas like essay structuring, critical analysis, and independent study habits—all tailored to your child's way of learning. This support can make a significant difference in their A-Level performance and university applications.
Is online tutoring as effective as in-person for a child with dyslexia?
Many parents find it's even more effective. Online sessions use interactive tools like digital whiteboards which can be brilliant for visual learners. Plus, your child learns in their own comfortable space, and you get access to specialist dyslexia tutors from across the UK, not just those available locally in Market Harborough.
What if my child doesn't click with the first tutor we try?
Finding the right partnership is crucial. We have a first lesson guarantee to ensure you do. If for any reason the first session isn't a perfect fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first lesson with a new tutor.
My child's confidence is very low. How does a tutor help with that?
This is at the heart of what we do. A great tutor is a mentor who celebrates small wins, builds on strengths, and shows your child a different way to see their own abilities. By providing a safe space to ask questions and make progress, confidence naturally grows alongside their academic skills.
How do you find tutors who specialise in dyslexia?
We have a rigorous selection process, and only 1 in 8 tutors who apply are accepted. Many of our tutors have specific qualifications and extensive experience in supporting students with dyslexia and other specific learning differences. You can view their experience on their profile.
My child struggles with confidence across all subjects due to dyslexia. Can you help with more than just English?
Yes. Whilst many students need support with literacy, our tutors can help apply dyslexia-friendly strategies to any subject, from understanding maths problems to revising for history exams. We also have tutors for practical skills, hobbies, and other interests, helping build confidence everywhere.
How long are the tutoring sessions and how often should they be?
Sessions are typically one hour long. Most families find a weekly session provides the perfect consistency to build skills and confidence without being overwhelming. However, the frequency is completely flexible and can be arranged directly with your tutor to fit your child's needs.
What do we need for an online session?
It's simple. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom has all the tools needed, like an interactive whiteboard, built right in.
Can tutoring help with exam access arrangements?
Whilst our tutors can't formally diagnose or apply for access arrangements, they have a wealth of experience in this area. They can help your child practise using tools like text-to-speech software or learn how to make the most of extra time, ensuring they are confident and prepared for exam conditions.
How much do online dyslexia tutors cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, allowing you to find an expert who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or long-term contracts.
My child struggles with confidence across all subjects due to dyslexia. Can you help with more than just English?
Paying for lessons is straightforward and secure. Your payment details are saved on your account, and you're charged automatically 24 hours after each completed lesson. You can review all your lessons and payments from your dashboard at any time.
