Partnering with Your Child for Reading Success
Finding the right tutor for your child can feel like a daunting task, especially if you've never done it before. You don't have to navigate endless profiles or second-guess your choice. Tell us about your child's needs and their learning style, and we'll carefully match them with a Reading tutor who truly understands how to build confidence and make learning engaging. Our process is thoughtful and backed by data, ensuring a reliable fit so your child feels supported from day one.
Forget imagining a simple video call. Tutorful's online classroom is purpose-built for effective learning. Your child and their tutor will share an interactive whiteboard, working through reading passages, annotating texts, and breaking down complex vocabulary together in real-time. The tutor can highlight tricky sentences, model comprehension strategies, and even mark up their child's own writing. Every session is recorded, so your child can revisit challenging concepts or reread annotated texts before an exam, making learning active and lasting.
Online tutoring means no more rushing through Borehamwood traffic for appointments. Your child learns from the comfort and safety of home, fitting sessions around their school day, clubs, or family commitments. This flexibility also gives you access to the best Reading tutors from across the entire UK, not just those nearby. If for any reason the first tutor isn't quite the right fit, we’ll happily cover your first session with a new tutor. It’s support that works for your child, on your family’s schedule.

***Online lessons only ***Hi my name is Siobhan! I am a dedicated, patient and enthusiastic primary teacher who has 8 years experience in different roles within the primary and secondary education system including supporting children with SEN as well as SATs interventions. I believe all pupils have the capacity to succeed and surpass their goals, if they're given the right support and guidance. It is important that a tutor and student have a good relationship that allows for the pupil to feel confident and reassured enough to admit when they don’t understand or make mistakes in their work.

Luke S
I want to give a big thankyou to Luke for his work with my son.
He's been incredibly patient and supportive, while also encouraging improvement in his reading.
Luke struck a great balance between structured learning and making the sessions fun.
We've seen real progress and I highly recommend him.

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.
