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.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
We're aiming for a place at a competitive Bristol school like Redland Green. Can a tutor help prepare my child?
Absolutely. Many parents in Bristol use our tutors to help build the foundational skills and confidence their child needs to thrive in a more demanding academic environment. A tutor can focus on strengthening core reading and comprehension, ensuring your child feels prepared and ready to learn from day one.
My long-term goal for my child is the University of Bristol. Is it too early to build these foundational skills?
It's never too early to foster a love of learning and build strong academic foundations. Confident reading is the key that unlocks every other subject. By securing these skills now, you're giving your child a huge advantage for their future studies, including their GCSEs, A-Levels, and potential university applications.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
Finding the right personality match is so important, and we want you and your child to feel comfortable. 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.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child also learn something like coding or playing the guitar?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we cover all core academic areas from primary to university level, we also have talented tutors who can teach practical and creative skills like musical instruments, coding, languages, and even chess.
How do I choose the right Reading tutor for my child?
You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message tutors for free before booking. We recommend finding someone your child will connect with. Look for tutors who have experience with your child's age group and can help with their specific goals, whether that's phonics, comprehension, or simply building confidence.
How much do Reading tutors cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and the level of study. This transparency allows you to find an experienced, high-quality tutor who also fits your family's budget.
My child's confidence in reading is low. How can a tutor help?
This is one of the most common reasons parents come to us. A great tutor creates a safe, encouraging space where your child isn't afraid to make mistakes. By breaking down topics, celebrating small wins, and providing patient guidance, they help your child see that they *can* succeed, which often makes the biggest difference.
How do online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents. It's a simple and effective way for your child to learn from home, and you can even re-watch recorded sessions to help with revision.
Are all the tutors qualified teachers?
Our tutors come from a wide range of backgrounds. Many are qualified teachers, but we also have university academics, examiners, and subject matter experts who are passionate about their field. We check every tutor's ID and qualifications, and they all undergo a background check. We only accept 1 in 8 applicants, so you can be sure you're choosing from the best.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that a one-hour lesson each week works best. This provides consistency and allows your child to build on what they've learned without feeling overwhelmed. However, the schedule is completely flexible and you can arrange what works best for you and your child directly with your tutor.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Your tutor will provide regular feedback on how your child is doing. You can also message them at any time to ask questions or discuss their learning plan. The biggest sign of progress, though, is often the change you'll see in your child's confidence and attitude towards their schoolwork.
How do you make sure tutoring is safe for my child?
Your child's safety is our absolute priority. All tutors undergo a background check and have their identity and qualifications verified. All lessons are recorded for safeguarding purposes, and our dedicated team is always on hand if you have any concerns.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
If things aren’t right with your first lesson just let us know. We’ll pay for
your next lesson with a new tutor – and even help you find them.
