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 live in Broadstairs and hope our child gets a place at Dane Court or Chatham & Clarendon. Can a tutor help with 11+ reading preparation?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in 11+ and Kent Test preparation. They have experience helping children build the specific reading comprehension, vocabulary and inference skills needed to feel confident and prepared for the exam.
Are the tutors familiar with the curriculum used in Broadstairs primary schools?
While tutors are from all over the UK, many have experience with the specific requirements of the national curriculum and entrance exams like the Kent Test. You can check each tutor's profile for their specific experience and even message them before booking to discuss your child's needs.
How do I choose the right Reading tutor for my child?
It’s all about finding the right fit for your child's personality and learning style. You can read detailed profiles, watch introductory videos, and check ratings from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to find someone you and your child both feel comfortable with.
How much does online Reading tuition cost?
Our tutors set their own prices, which typically range from £20 to £50 per hour, depending on their experience and qualifications. You can easily filter by price to find a brilliant tutor who fits your family's budget.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence in Reading?
Confidence is key. A tutor provides a safe, one-to-one space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By breaking down tricky topics and celebrating small wins, they help your child see their own progress, which is a huge confidence booster.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right connection is. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your first tutor for any reason, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors has passed an enhanced DBS check. We are very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe hands.
How do online lessons actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing, making it easy for your child to work through problems and texts with their tutor in real-time.
Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
It's for so much more! While we have experts for every academic subject, you can also find tutors for hobbies and life skills, from learning to play the guitar or speak Spanish, to coding in Python.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one lesson a week works best. This provides consistency and allows your child to build momentum without feeling overwhelmed. You can discuss the best frequency for your child's goals directly with your chosen tutor.
How long does a typical tutoring session last?
The standard lesson length is one hour. This gives enough time to settle in, review previous work, tackle new concepts, and set goals for the next session. Many tutors offer shorter or longer sessions if you need more flexibility.
What results can I expect to see?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our goal is always to help them feel more confident and capable. We're proud that 90% of students who use Tutorful improve by at least one grade, and our platform has a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 reviews from happy parents just like you.
