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
How do I choose the right Reading tutor for my child in Consett?
It's really straightforward. You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos to get a feel for their personality and teaching style. You can also message tutors for free before booking to ask any specific questions you have about how they can support your child's learning.
What if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is really important. 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.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, absolutely. Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed a background check and has been personally interviewed by our team. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
My child is at Derwentside College. Can a tutor support them with their coursework?
Yes, many of our tutors have experience supporting students with Further Education courses, including those at local colleges. You can find tutors who specialise in the specific skills your child needs, whether that's essay writing, research skills, or understanding complex texts for their course.
How much does online Reading tutoring cost?
The price varies depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. This allows you to find an experienced tutor who fits within your family's budget.
How can a tutor help if my child has lost their confidence?
Confidence is key to learning. Our tutors create a friendly, encouraging environment where your child can learn at their own pace without the pressure of a classroom. By celebrating small wins and breaking down difficult topics, they help your child rebuild their self-belief, which is why 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.
Can a tutor help my child prepare for entrance exams for schools near Consett?
Many of our tutors specialise in exam preparation, including 11+ and entrance exams for independent schools. You can use the filters on our search page to find tutors with specific experience in helping children prepare for these types of assessments.
How do online lessons actually work?
All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which includes an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing, making it easy for your child to engage with their tutor.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's progress. You can also message your tutor at any time to discuss how things are going. Many parents tell us they see a difference not just in schoolwork, but in their child's whole attitude towards learning.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn a skill like coding or a musical instrument?
We offer tutoring for a huge range of subjects and skills beyond the school curriculum. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding, or even learn a new language for fun, you can find an expert tutor to help them explore their interests.
How long are the sessions and how often should my child have them?
Most sessions are an hour long, and most students have one lesson per week. However, this is completely flexible and up to you. You can arrange session length and frequency directly with your tutor to create a schedule that best suits your child's needs and your family's routine.
Can a tutor help with specific reading skills like phonics or comprehension?
Yes, absolutely. One of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tutoring is that the tutor can focus on the exact areas where your child needs the most help. You can find tutors who are specialists in phonics for younger readers, or experts in improving comprehension and analytical skills for older students.
