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.

asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is in an Ysgol Gynradd. Can a tutor help with their Welsh reading skills?
Absolutely. We have many tutors who are fluent Welsh speakers and experienced in supporting children with their Welsh language reading. You can view their profiles and message them before booking to ensure they are the right fit for your child's specific needs.
We're worried about the transition to Ysgol Gyfun Gymraeg Bro Myrddin. Can a tutor help prepare my child?
Yes, a tutor can be a great help during this important transition. They can work with your child to strengthen their foundational reading skills in both Welsh and English, ensuring they feel confident and prepared for the demands of the secondary school curriculum.
How do I choose the right Reading tutor for my child?
It's all about finding the right personality and teaching style for your child. You can read tutor profiles, check their experience, and watch introductory videos. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking your first session to ensure it's a great match.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is. 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 online Reading tutors cost?
The cost varies depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, so you can find an experienced tutor who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
How can a tutor help my child if they've lost confidence in reading?
Confidence is key. One-to-one tutoring provides a safe, encouraging environment where your child can learn at their own pace without fear of making mistakes. Tutors are brilliant at celebrating small wins and breaking down tricky topics, which helps rebuild self-esteem and a positive attitude towards learning.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed an ID check and has a valid DBS check. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How does online tutoring work?
It's simple and effective. All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. All your child needs is a computer or tablet with a stable internet connection, a microphone, and a webcam.
How quickly can we find a tutor and start lessons?
You can get started very quickly. Many tutors respond to messages within a few hours, and you could have your first lesson booked in for as early as today or tomorrow, depending on your and the tutor's availability.
What results can I expect for my child?
Our goal is to help your child feel more confident and make real progress. While every child's journey is unique, we're proud that 90% of students who use Tutorful improve by at least one grade, showing the positive impact of personalised, one-to-one support.
Do you only offer academic subjects like Reading?
Not at all! While we support core subjects for exams like the 11+, GCSEs and A-Levels, we also have brilliant tutors for a huge range of other skills. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, try their hand at coding, or pick up a new language, we can help.
How long does a typical tutoring session last?
Most tutoring sessions are one hour long. This gives enough time to review previous topics, tackle new concepts, and set goals for the next session without being overwhelming for your child. You can discuss the ideal lesson length with your chosen tutor.
