Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

We're hoping for a place at Ecclesbourne School. Can a tutor help prepare my child?

Yes, absolutely. While we can't guarantee school places, our tutors are brilliant at building the strong, foundational reading and comprehension skills that will help your child feel confident and prepared for the pace of a demanding curriculum. They focus on making learning enjoyable and stress-free.

My child is finding the reading demands of secondary school a challenge. Can a tutor help?

This is a very common concern, and our tutors can make a real difference. They can help your child get to grips with analysing more complex texts, understanding new vocabulary, and structuring their thoughts for written answers, helping them feel less overwhelmed and more in control of their studies.

How do I choose the right reading tutor for my child?

It's easy to find the perfect match. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and filter tutors by their experience. We recommend messaging a few to find someone your child will connect with before booking your first session.

What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

We understand that the right fit is important. 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 tuition cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications, but you can easily see each tutor's hourly rate on their profile. There are no hidden fees or contracts, so you have complete control over what you spend.

How can a reading tutor build my child's confidence?

Confidence comes from understanding. In a one-to-one session, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might be too shy to ask in class. By working at their pace and celebrating small wins, our tutors help turn 'I can't do it' into 'I can'.

Are the tutors' backgrounds checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors are background-checked and we interview every single one. We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.

How does online tutoring actually work?

All lessons take place in our online classroom, which is designed to be simple and engaging. It has a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.

How long will it take to see an improvement in my child's reading?

Every child learns at their own pace, but our focused, one-to-one approach means progress can happen quickly. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence and enthusiasm for reading after just a few sessions.

Can a tutor help with specific reading challenges like dyslexia?

Yes. Many of our tutors have specific experience and qualifications in supporting students with Special Educational Needs (SEN), including dyslexia. You can use our filters to find tutors who specialise in this area and read about their approach on their profile.

What happens in a typical online reading lesson?

Every lesson is tailored to your child. It might start with a fun warm-up activity, then move on to working through a specific text, practising phonics, or building comprehension skills. The tutor will adapt the session based on your child's energy and what they need to focus on that day.

Is it just for school subjects, or can I find a tutor for other skills?

It's for so much more! While we help thousands of students with academic subjects like Maths and English, you can also find expert tutors to help your child learn skills like coding, playing the guitar, or even speaking a new language.
