Emily H
Enthusiastic Reading Tutor
I am a qualified teacher that aims to tailor my approach to the individual student by setting clear goals and focusing on areas in which to grow confidence. I believe effective tutoring is about delivering complex concepts in simple terms with patience, encouragement and enthusiasm. Also, I believe that encouraging deep questioning on topics where there may be misunderstanding or a lack of enthusiasm is an excellent learning mechanism. Developing strong relationships with students means that parallels can be drawn between what is being studied, and the students’ own life experiences, which makes f...

Eleanor B
Great first 'getting to know' lesson. Ellie helped Monty warm to the idea of tutoring by tapping nicely into his interests (he said afterwards that he really liked her) . He is positive about having another session next week. It was good that they could discuss his current school book; I think this is going to help him.

Hannah B
Within 5 minutes of specking to Hannah, I knew she was going to be my son’s tutor. She’s personable, passionate and knows her industry inside out. We’ve only had 2 lessons, but I can see the confidence and enjoyment on my son’s face as he’s learning. My son said after his 2nd lesson, ‘Hannah is so calm and I’m really enjoying tutoring’. We are actually so blessed to have found Hannah.

Nic H
Nic is a very experienced teacher who is able to adapt to different children, with an array of tools up her sleeve to keep the child engaged. After every lesson Nic is very good at telling me what they went through and what we should be focusing on. I think I am even learning myself on letter formation!
My daughter is a high functioning autistic person in reception, who needs to close some gaps in her phonics, numbers and handwriting. The leap from reception to year 1 can be difficult and Nic is helping me to get my daughter to a level where she will feel stable with the transition.
I was worried that a 1hr lesson would be too hard for my daughter and that she would not be engaged. My daughter is fully engaged and I am very impressed with what my daughter can achieve in her lesson.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
How do I find the right reading tutor for my child?
It's simple! You can use our search filters to find tutors who specialise in your child's age group and specific needs. Watch their intro videos, read reviews from other parents, and send a message to a few to find the perfect fit before booking.
How much does online reading tutoring cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which are displayed clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study. You can filter by price to find a great tutor who fits your family's budget.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence in reading?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, a tutor can patiently break down concepts your child finds difficult. By celebrating small wins and creating a safe space to ask questions, they help your child feel capable and much more positive about reading.
Are your tutors familiar with the curriculum taught in schools around Egham?
Many of our tutors are experienced teachers who are very familiar with the UK National Curriculum used in local primary and secondary schools. You can view a tutor's professional experience on their profile and ask them directly if they have knowledge of your child's specific school curriculum.
My child is thinking about Royal Holloway in the future. Can a tutor help with the skills needed for university-level reading?
Absolutely. For older students, our tutors can help develop the critical reading and analytical skills essential for A-Levels and university. They can work on things like understanding academic texts, forming arguments, and writing essays, providing a great foundation for higher education.
What happens in a typical online reading lesson?
Our online classroom has lots of useful features like an interactive whiteboard, which tutors use to make lessons engaging. For reading, a tutor might share texts on-screen to read together, use tools to highlight key passages, or work on creative writing exercises to boost comprehension.
How do you vet your tutors?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and has their ID and qualifications verified. We also interview every tutor to ensure they have the right experience and a passion for teaching. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the best.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. If you don't get on with your first tutor for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something new?
While we cover all academic subjects from Primary to degree level, we also have expert tutors for hobbies and skills. Your child can learn anything from coding and playing the guitar to learning a new language for a family holiday.
How long are the lessons and how often should my child have them?
Lessons are typically one hour long. Most families find that a weekly session works best to build momentum without overwhelming their child, but you can arrange a schedule that suits your child's needs directly with your tutor.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Your tutor will provide regular feedback on how your child is doing. You can also message your tutor at any time to discuss their progress and goals. Many parents tell us they see a big difference not just in schoolwork, but in their child's overall confidence.
What happens if we need to cancel or reschedule a lesson?
Life can be busy, and we understand that plans change. Our platform makes it easy to manage your schedule. You can reschedule or cancel a lesson with your tutor, but please be mindful of their 24-hour cancellation policy, which is shown on their profile.
