Strong reading and comprehension skills are essential for success in crucial exams like the 11+, GCSEs, and A-Levels, paving the way for college, university, and the career of their choice.

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.

My child attends a school in Daventry. Can a tutor tailor lessons to their specific curriculum?
Absolutely. Our tutors can work alongside your child's schoolwork to help them keep up and get ahead, whether they're at The Parker E-ACT Academy, Daventry Hill School, or another local school. Just share what they're working on with your tutor.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
Are the tutors on your platform vetted?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and has their ID verified. We personally interview every applicant and only accept 1 in 8 who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
We're considering grammar schools in Northamptonshire. Can we find a tutor experienced in 11+ reading comprehension?
Yes, many of our tutors specialise in 11+ preparation. You can use our search filters to find tutors with specific experience in verbal reasoning and reading comprehension to help your child feel prepared and confident for their exams.
How do online lessons work?
Lessons take place in our interactive online classroom. It features video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and tools for sharing documents. All your child needs is a computer or tablet with a webcam and a stable internet connection. It's simple, secure, and highly effective.

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the level of study. Each tutor sets their own hourly rate, which is shown clearly on their profile. This transparency allows you to find a brilliant tutor who fits your family's budget, with no hidden fees.
My child's confidence in reading is low. How can a tutor help?
A one-to-one tutor provides a safe and patient environment where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By breaking down topics into manageable steps and celebrating their progress, tutors can help rebuild your child's self-belief and even help them find joy in reading again.
Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

How long are the tutoring sessions?
Most lessons are one hour long, as this is typically the most effective length for maintaining focus. However, you can arrange different session lengths directly with your tutor to find a schedule that works best for your child.
What happens if we need to reschedule a lesson?
We understand that family life can be unpredictable. That's why we have a flexible 12-hour cancellation policy. As long as you give your tutor at least 12 hours' notice, you can cancel or reschedule a lesson without any charge.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Our tutors provide regular feedback to keep you in the loop. You can also message your tutor at any time to discuss your child's development. Seeing their confidence grow, alongside improvements in their school work, is often the clearest sign of success.
