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
My child is at Elfed High School. Can a tutor help with the Welsh Baccalaureate?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in the specific requirements of the Welsh curriculum, including the Welsh Baccalaureate. They can help your child develop the critical reading and analytical skills needed to succeed.
We’re thinking about A-Levels at Coleg Cambria. Can a tutor prepare my child for that step up?
Yes. A reading tutor can be a great help in bridging the gap between GCSE and A-Level study. They can work with your child on the more advanced and complex texts they'll encounter, building their confidence and analytical skills early on.
How do I find the right reading tutor for my child?
You can use our search filters to find tutors with the right experience for your child's age and level. Watch their intro videos, read reviews from other parents, and send a message to a few to find the perfect fit. It's all about finding someone your child will connect with.
How can a tutor help my child's confidence?
Often, a lack of confidence comes from small gaps in understanding. In a one-to-one setting, a tutor can patiently work through these areas without the pressure of a classroom. Every small win builds your child's self-belief, which can have a positive impact across all their subjects.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors have been interviewed, reference-checked, and have had their ID and qualifications verified. We also require tutors to have an up-to-date DBS check or equivalent.
What happens if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial. 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 do reading tutors cost?
Our tutors set their own prices based on their experience, typically ranging from £25 to £50 per hour. You can see each tutor's price on their profile, so you can find someone brilliant who also fits your budget. There are no hidden fees.
How does online tutoring work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our online classroom, which features video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection.
Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
It's for much more than just school subjects! We have expert tutors who can help your child learn a musical instrument like the guitar, master a new language, or even learn practical skills like coding.
How long are the lessons and how often should we have them?
Lessons are typically an hour long. Most families find that one session a week is ideal for making steady progress, but you can arrange a schedule that works best for your child with your chosen tutor.
Can I track my child's progress?
Yes. Your tutor will provide feedback after each session, and you can message them at any time to discuss your child's progress. It's a partnership between you, your child, and the tutor.
What if we need to reschedule a lesson?
That's no problem. We have a flexible 24-hour cancellation policy. As long as you give your tutor at least 24 hours' notice, you can cancel or reschedule a lesson without being charged.
