Why Strong Reading Skills are the Key to Your Child's Future
Reading is more than just a subject; it's the tool your child uses to access every other area of learning. Excellent reading comprehension is vital for analysing poems in English, interpreting complex historical sources, and even understanding wordy maths problems. Building these skills now doesn't just help with upcoming 11+ or GCSE exams; it prepares them for future success, opening doors to further education at places like the University of Wolverhampton and a wider range of career choices.

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.

The standard lesson length is one hour, which gives enough time to cover a topic in depth without overwhelming your child. However, you can discuss different lesson lengths with your chosen tutor to find what works best.

Life can be busy, we get it. You can easily manage your schedule through the platform. We just ask that you give your tutor at least 24 hours' notice if you need to cancel or reschedule a session.
