Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

We're worried about the Year 1 Phonics Screening Check at my child's school in Burnham-on-Sea. Can a tutor help?

Absolutely. Our tutors are very familiar with the Year 1 Phonics Screening Check and can create fun, targeted sessions to help your child build the skills and confidence they need. They focus on making learning feel like a game, so your child feels prepared and relaxed.

My child will eventually go to The King Alfred School Academy. Can a Phonics tutor help build a strong foundation for secondary school?

Yes, a strong foundation in phonics is crucial for long-term academic success. By ensuring your child is a confident and capable reader now, a tutor helps prepare them for the increased reading demands of all subjects at secondary school, setting them up to thrive.

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

You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and send messages to ask questions before you book. We recommend having a chat with a tutor first to make sure their approach is a good fit for your child's personality and needs.

How can a tutor help build my child's confidence in reading?

Confidence comes from success. In a one-to-one setting, your child gets constant encouragement and lessons tailored to their pace. By breaking down challenges into small, manageable steps, a tutor helps your child experience regular 'wins', which quickly builds their self-belief.

How much does online Phonics tutoring cost in Burnham-on-Sea?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles, so you can find an experienced tutor that fits your family's budget.

Are all the tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single UK-based tutor on our platform has had their ID verified and has an up-to-date DBS check. We are very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply to join us.

What if my child doesn't click with their first Phonics 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.

How does online tutoring work for young children?

Our online classroom is designed to be engaging for all ages. Tutors use interactive tools like whiteboards, drawing tools, and educational games to make learning fun and visual, keeping your child focused and happy throughout the lesson.

How often should my child have a lesson?

For phonics, consistency is often key. Many parents find that one session a week is a great way to build momentum without overwhelming their child. You can discuss the best frequency directly with your chosen tutor based on your child's goals.

How do I know if my child is making progress?

Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's progress. You'll be able to see their growing confidence for yourself, and the tutor can share specific areas of improvement and what they plan to work on next.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child also learn something like guitar or coding?

We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the core curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn a musical instrument, try coding, or even learn a new language, you can find expert tutors to support their hobbies and interests too.

What makes Tutorful different?

We're trusted by thousands of families across the UK, with over 4,100 reviews rating us 4.6/5 stars. We focus on matching your child with a tutor who not only has great subject knowledge but also has the right personality to help them love learning.
