From understanding questions in a science exam to analysing sources in a history essay, confident reading is essential. Building this foundation now gives your child the best possible chance to achieve the GCSE results they deserve, opening doors to great A-Level opportunities at places like One Sixth Form College and whatever they choose to do next.

Personalised Reading Support That Builds Real Confidence
The right tutor does more than just teach; they build a connection with your child. By getting to know their personality and how they learn best, they create a safe and encouraging space. This means your child feels comfortable asking questions and working through challenges they might feel shy about raising in a busy classroom.
Every online lesson is planned around your child’s specific needs. If they need help with phonics and fluency, the session will focus on that. If they're struggling to understand the meaning behind a text, their tutor will use targeted activities to build their comprehension skills. This focused approach is why 90% of students improve by at least one grade with us.
Finding that perfect support shouldn't add to your to-do list. With online tutoring, there are no extra journeys across Ipswich. You can find a brilliant, background-checked tutor and schedule lessons at times that fit around your family's life, making it easy and convenient to get your child the help they need.

My daughter has been having tutoring session with Jo for some time now, her reading has improved so much in that time. My daughter can be quite shy but she settled with Jo very quickly and she makes the lesson engaging and fun.Would recommend to anyone who needs some help for their child who is behind at school.

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.
