Charlotte S
Friendly Phonics Tutor
With over 10 years of teaching experience and 5 years of online tutoring, I’ve supported children from Reception to Year 6, helping them grow in confidence and enjoy learning. I use a student-centred, supportive teaching style, tailoring every lesson to each child’s needs, strengths and pace. No two learners are the same — and I love adapting my approach to make learning meaningful and engaging.One of the biggest reasons I love tutoring is the individual attention it allows. I get to slow down, focus entirely on one child, and celebrate every bit of progress with them. Seeing a concept “click” or watchi...

Abigail R
Providing progress in Phonics through tailored support
I am a qualified primary school teacher with experience across both mainstream and specialist settings. For the past three years, I have worked in a school for children with social, emotional and mental health needs, all of whom have Education, Health and Care Plans. This has given me a strong foundation in trauma informed practice, personalised learning and the importance of building safe, trusting relationships so that children feel confident and supported in their learning. I believe these approaches benefit all children, not just those with additional needs.Before working in specialist education,...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child will eventually go to Vale of Leven Academy. Can a tutor help build a strong reading foundation now to prepare them for secondary school?

Absolutely. Many parents in Alexandria share this goal. A Phonics tutor can help build the fundamental reading skills and confidence your child needs to smoothly transition to secondary school and access the full curriculum right from the start.

Are the tutors familiar with the Scottish Curriculum for Excellence for early years?

Yes. You can view each tutor's profile to see their experience and qualifications. Many of our tutors are experienced teachers who are very familiar with the Scottish curriculum and can tailor their lessons to align with what your child is learning in school.

How do I choose the right Phonics tutor for my child?

It's easy to find the perfect match. You can browse tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and even message them for free before booking to make sure they're the right fit for your child's personality and learning needs.

How can I be sure the tutors are safe to work with my child?

Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and reference-checked before they can join Tutorful. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.

What happens if we don't get on with the first tutor we try?

We want to make sure you find the perfect fit. With 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.

How much does online Phonics tutoring cost?

Our tutors set their own prices, so you can find an experienced, high-quality tutor that fits your budget. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, with no hidden fees or complicated contracts.

How does online tutoring work?

All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing, making it easy and fun for your child to learn from the comfort of your home.

How long will it take to see progress in my child's reading?

Every child learns at their own pace, but one-to-one tutoring can make a big difference quickly. Because lessons are tailored to your child's specific needs, they can focus on the exact areas they need to improve, which often helps build momentum and confidence from the very first session.

Can tutoring help my child's confidence as well as their reading skills?

Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits. As your child starts to see progress and feels understood by their tutor, their self-esteem often grows. This new-found confidence can have a positive impact on their attitude towards school and learning in general.

Do I have to commit to a certain number of lessons?

Not at all. We believe in flexibility. You can book lessons one at a time or schedule a regular weekly slot with your chosen tutor. There are no contracts or long-term commitments required.

Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

While we cover all academic subjects, we also have tutors for a huge range of other skills and hobbies. So, whether your child wants to learn to code, play the guitar, or speak a new language, we can help them find a brilliant tutor.

What happens in a typical online Phonics lesson?

A tutor will make the session fun and interactive, often using games, pictures, and digital tools on the whiteboard to teach letter sounds, blending, and reading skills. The lesson will be paced to suit your child and focused on the specific areas they need the most support with.
