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.

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
My child is aiming for a school like Yarm or Egglescliffe. Can a tutor help them prepare for the more demanding work?
Yes, absolutely. Our tutors are experienced in helping children build the strong foundational reading skills needed for academically demanding environments. They can work with your child on advanced comprehension, vocabulary building, and critical analysis to ensure they feel confident and prepared for the challenges ahead.
With the high standards at local Ingleby Barwick schools, how can a tutor ensure my child doesn't fall behind?
A one-to-one tutor provides personalised attention that isn't always possible in a classroom. They can identify the specific areas where your child needs support and create a tailored plan to address them. This focused approach helps close any learning gaps, reinforces classroom learning, and builds the confidence they need to keep pace and even get ahead.
How do I choose the right Reading tutor for my child?
It's all about finding the right fit for your child's personality and learning style. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message tutors directly to ask questions before booking. Many tutors also offer a free 15-minute chat to get to know them first.
What if we don't click with the first tutor?
We know that the right relationship is key to learning. 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 does online Reading tutoring cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, so prices vary depending on their experience and qualifications. You can easily filter tutors by price on our website to find an expert who fits your family's budget.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform undergoes a thorough vetting process, including identity and background checks. We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How can a tutor help build my child's confidence?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions without feeling embarrassed. As their tutor helps them overcome challenges and they see their own progress, their self-belief naturally grows.
Is tutoring just for core subjects like Reading, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have fantastic tutors for academic subjects from primary to university level, we also offer support in a wide range of other areas. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get into coding, or pick up a new language, you can find an expert tutor to help.
How do the online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. It's designed to be simple and engaging, allowing your child and their tutor to focus on learning.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one session a week is a great starting point. This provides consistency and allows the tutor to build on what was covered in the previous lesson. However, the frequency is completely flexible and can be arranged directly with your chosen tutor to fit your child's needs.
What age group do your Reading tutors teach?
We have tutors who specialise in teaching reading to all ages, from early years and primary school children learning phonics, right through to GCSE and A-Level students analysing complex texts. You can filter by level to find the perfect match for your child's age and stage.
How quickly will I see an improvement in my child's reading?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our data shows that 90% of students improve by at least one grade with Tutorful. The personalised attention of one-to-one tutoring often helps children make progress much faster than they would in a classroom alone.
