Tracy M
Tracy has a lovely teaching style and engages my daughter in her lessons very well. Over time, she has grown her interest in maths, an area she has not felt confident in. She looks forward to her lessons with Tracy which is lovely to see. Tracy's encouraging and nuturing teaching style really has drawn my daughter to appreciating and enjoy the learning experience. Many thanks Tracy!!

Rachael T
Rachael has been teaching my son, who recently started reception, and her impact has been remarkable. She quickly identified the areas where he needed extra support and has been incredibly intentional in tailoring her lessons. The detailed feedback she provides is invaluable, helping us understand how to support him effectively at home. My son genuinely looks forward to his classes with her, and although I was initially concerned about his ability to focus during an online session, he now asks eagerly every day if he'll be seeing Mrs Rachael again.

I cannot say enough good things about Kim. We are so lucky to have found her. She brings an incredible amount of enthusiasm and energy to every lesson making it fun and engaging for even the most challenging of children. We are very much looking forward to continuing our lessons each week and my 5 year old daughter is very excited each morning to be having lessons with Kim.

Meera P
It's very challenging to get my 5yr old to do anything, but Meera is patient and knows how to bring his attention back to what they're doing. I am very impressed with her work and would definitely recommend her.

Brilliant Early Years and Reception tutors who you’ll really click with.
Our experienced tutors take the time to understand where each student needs to focus and their preferred way of learning. They make a measurable difference – 90% of all students improve by at least one grade.
We live in Carrickfergus and are thinking ahead to the SEAG transfer test. Can a tutor help build the right foundations now?
Absolutely. While we focus on making learning fun and pressure-free at this age, our tutors are brilliant at building the core literacy and numeracy skills that create a strong foundation for all future learning, including the skills needed for the transfer test down the line.
Our goal is a place at Carrickfergus Grammar School. Can a tutor help my child get on the right path from the very start?
Yes. A great start in Early Years is key. A tutor can help nurture your child's natural curiosity and build their confidence with letters and numbers, which is the perfect preparation for a successful journey through primary school and towards future goals like grammar school entrance.
How much does an Early Years and Reception tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own prices, so rates vary based on their experience. You can easily see the cost per hour on each tutor's profile, making it simple to find someone who fits your family's budget. There are no hidden fees or complicated contracts.
How do I choose the right tutor for my child?
Finding the right person is easy. You can read reviews from other parents, watch introductory videos to get a feel for their personality, and message them for free before booking. It's all about finding someone your child will look forward to learning with.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors are ID and background checked. We are very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How do online lessons work for young children?
Our online classroom is designed to be interactive and engaging. Tutors use fun tools like a virtual whiteboard, educational games, and screen sharing to make learning feel like play. It's a great way to keep young children focused and happy.
Can a tutor help my child feel more confident about starting school?
Definitely. One of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring is the confidence boost it gives a child. A tutor provides constant encouragement and celebrates small wins, which can make a huge difference in how your child feels about school and their own abilities.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one session a week is a great starting point for young children. It provides consistency without being overwhelming. However, it's completely flexible, and you can discuss the best frequency with your chosen tutor.
Can I speak to the tutor about my child's progress?
Of course. We encourage open communication. You can message your tutor at any time, and they will be happy to give you regular feedback on how your child is getting on and what they've been working on together in their lessons.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right personal connection is key to learning. That's why we have a 'First Lesson Guarantee'. If you don't get on with your tutor, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can you help with other skills too?
While we cover all academic subjects from Early Years to university level, we also have talented tutors who can teach a wide range of other skills, including learning an instrument like the guitar or piano, coding, or even a new language.
What makes Tutorful a trusted choice for parents?
Parents trust us because we deliver results in a safe and supportive way. We're proud to have a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 reviews, and we've helped over 200,000 students find the perfect tutor to achieve their goals.
