Find a tutor
Expert Reading Support, Designed for Your Child
We know finding the right tutor can feel overwhelming, especially when you're new to the process. Instead of asking you to choose from a list, we get to know your child's needs. We'll then thoughtfully match them with an experienced online reading tutor who can build their confidence, clarify difficult concepts like phonics or comprehension strategies, and help them enjoy reading again. Our aim is to provide a trusted recommendation, not just a selection of profiles.
Forget basic video calls; Tutorful's interactive classroom is built for real learning. Your child and their reading tutor work together on a shared whiteboard, annotating texts, breaking down complex sentences, or practising creative writing techniques in real-time. With tools for highlighting and drawing, the tutor can adapt lessons instantly. Plus, every session is recorded, so your child can revisit challenging passages or revise before an assessment, reinforcing what they've learnt.
From your home in billericay, your child can access exceptional reading tutors from anywhere in the UK, without any travel time. This flexibility means sessions can fit around busy school schedules, sports clubs, or family commitments. And should the initial match not feel quite right, we offer a first lesson guarantee, covering your next session with a new tutor.

Tatiana S
Practical Reading Tutor
Many GCSE students understand vocabulary and grammar but struggle to use Spanish confidently in exams. Speaking feels stressful, writing lacks structure and listening often becomes guesswork. This leads to low confidence and inconsistent results, even in students who are capable.My GCSE lessons are structured, calm and exam-focused. I break Spanish down clearly and show students exactly how to build speaking answers, how to write in a way that meets exam criteria and how to approach listening papers with effective strategies. Grammar is explained simply and practiced in context, so students know...

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.
