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.

asked questions
See all FAQs
We're in Rawtenstall and thinking ahead to the 11+ for Bacup and Rawtenstall Grammar School. Can an Early Years tutor help lay the right foundation?
Absolutely. While we focus on making learning fun and age-appropriate, a great Early Years tutor can help your child build the core phonics and numeracy skills that are the essential building blocks for all future learning, including preparation for the 11+.
My child is starting Reception in the Rawtenstall area. How can a tutor help them feel 'school-ready'?
Our tutors can help your child feel confident and prepared for Reception. They do this by gently introducing them to key concepts like letter recognition, phonics, and basic numbers in a fun, low-pressure environment, so they walk into the classroom on their first day feeling excited to learn.
How do I choose the right Early Years tutor for my child?
You can read tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. Many tutors also offer a free 15-minute chat so you can get to know them and discuss your child's needs before booking a lesson.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. That's why we have our 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.
