Brilliant Phonics 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.
My child is worried about the Year 1 Phonics Screening Check. How can an online tutor help?
We completely understand. Our tutors are experienced in making preparation for the check feel positive and low-pressure. They use fun, engaging methods to build confidence with both real and nonsense words, ensuring your child feels ready and capable, rather than anxious about the test.
We want to ensure our child has a strong reading foundation for secondary schools like Newmarket Academy. Is this a focus?
Absolutely. A strong start in Phonics is the bedrock of all future learning. Our tutors focus on creating fluent, confident readers who not only pass tests but develop a genuine love of reading that will serve them well throughout their entire education, especially during the important transition to secondary school.
Is online tutoring really as effective for a hands-on subject like Phonics?
Yes, and it can be even more engaging! Our tutors use interactive whiteboards, educational games, and digital resources to bring Phonics to life. For young learners, this screen-based interaction is often intuitive and fun, helping them stay focused and absorb new concepts effectively from the comfort of home.
How do you find the right Phonics tutor for my child in Newmarket?
Our platform helps you find the perfect match based on your child's needs, personality, and your family's schedule. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message tutors directly. As all our tutoring is online, your choice isn't limited by location, giving your Newmarket-based child access to the best specialists across the UK.
What if my child doesn't click with their first Phonics tutor?
Finding the right connection is the most important thing. We have a first lesson guarantee to ensure you're completely happy. If it's not the perfect fit for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.
Are your tutors qualified to teach early reading?
Yes. Many of our Phonics tutors are qualified teachers with specific experience in early years and Key Stage 1. We verify every tutor's ID and qualifications, and our rigorous selection process means we only accept 1 in every 8 who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
Beyond Phonics, can my child get help with other subjects?
Of course. We have expert tutors across more than 300 subjects. So, whether your child needs a bit of help with primary maths, wants to try coding, or is interested in learning a musical instrument, we have specialists ready to support their learning journey online.
How much do online Phonics lessons cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, typically starting from £15 per hour. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, so you can find an experienced tutor who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or long-term commitments.
How long is a typical Phonics session for a young child?
For younger children, sessions are often shorter to maintain focus and energy. Many parents find that 30 to 45 minutes is ideal. You can discuss the perfect lesson length directly with your chosen tutor to suit your child's needs.
What technology do we need for an online lesson?
It's very simple. All you need is a laptop or tablet with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is built into our platform, so there's no complex software to download. It's designed to be easy and intuitive for everyone.
How will I know if my child is making real progress?
Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's development, highlighting areas of improvement and discussing next steps. The biggest sign of progress, though, is often seeing your child's confidence grow as they start picking up books and reading aloud with newfound enthusiasm.
Can we schedule lessons to fit around school clubs and other activities?
Yes, that's one of the biggest benefits of online tutoring. Our tutors offer flexible scheduling, including evenings and weekends, so you can arrange lessons at times that work for your family, without adding any travel time or stress to your busy week.
