Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
We're worried about the Year 1 Phonics Screening Check in our Normanton primary school. Can a tutor focus specifically on that?
Absolutely. Many of our Phonics tutors specialise in preparing children for the screening check. They can make practice fun and engaging, helping your child build the skills and confidence they need to do their best, without feeling pressured.
My child will be going to a local secondary school soon. Can a tutor help build their reading confidence for that transition?
Yes, building a strong reading foundation is key for the move to secondary school. A tutor can help ensure your child's reading skills are solid, so they feel ready and confident to tackle the more complex texts they'll encounter in Year 7 and beyond.
How do I choose the right Phonics tutor for my child?
It's simple to find a great match. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message tutors for free to ask about their experience. It's all about finding someone your child will look forward to learning with.
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 much do online Phonics tutors cost?
Our tutors set their own prices, typically starting from £15 an hour. You can easily filter by price to find a brilliant, experienced tutor who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
How can I be sure the tutors are safe?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor is background-checked and has their ID verified. We also interview every tutor, and only 1 in every 8 who apply is accepted onto our platform, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How do online lessons work?
They take place in our specially-designed online classroom. It has everything your child needs, like a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share resources. It's a fun and effective way to learn from the comfort of your home.
Can a tutor help my child enjoy reading?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring. A great tutor can find out what your child is interested in and use games, stories, and activities to make phonics fun. They can help turn reading from a chore into a joy.
How long will my child need a tutor for?
There's no set rule. Some children just need a few sessions to overcome a specific hurdle, while others benefit from regular weekly support to build their skills over time. You can discuss your child's goals with your tutor to work out the best plan.
How do I track my child's progress?
Your tutor will provide regular feedback on how your child is getting on. You can also message them anytime to ask questions. Many parents tell us they see a real difference not just in their child's schoolwork, but in their overall confidence too.
Is Tutorful just for academic subjects, or can you help with hobbies?
