Tailored Phonics Support, Designed for Your Child's Journey
When you're looking for Phonics support, knowing where to start can feel overwhelming. That's why we don't present you with a daunting list to sift through. Instead, tell us about your child's specific needs – whether they're struggling with phonemes, blending, or decoding – and we'll thoughtfully match them with an expert online tutor. We consider not just subject knowledge, but also teaching style, ensuring a tutor who can build confidence and truly connect with your child.
Forget static video calls. Our interactive online classroom is purpose-built for engaging Phonics lessons. Your child and their tutor will share a digital whiteboard, working through letter sounds, blending exercises, and word building in real time. Tutors use annotation tools to highlight tricky phonemes or demonstrate new blends visually. Every session is recorded too, so your child can revisit lessons to practise or revise before school.
With online Phonics tutoring, there's no need to factor in travel from your home in Harrow. Sessions fit around your family's busy schedule – after school or at weekends, whenever works best. This flexibility also means your child can access the very best tutors from across the entire UK, not just those nearby. If the first tutor isn't quite the right fit, we offer a guarantee and will cover the cost of a new first session.

Sara has been fantastic with my 5-year-old. I initially shared my concerns about Dawud’s reading and maths, and she reassured me that with the right support, he would improve and be ready for the phonics screening. I noticed a significant boost in his confidence and reading ability even after the first session. Highly recommended — she is both skilled and very kind.
