Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child will be going to Northgate High or Neatherd High. Can a tutor help them prepare for the increased reading demands?

Yes, absolutely. Our tutors can work with your child to build the specific comprehension and analytical skills they'll need for the step-up to secondary school. They can focus on tackling more complex texts to ensure your child feels confident and prepared from day one.

We're thinking ahead to Dereham Sixth Form College. How can reading tutoring now help with A-Levels?

Strong reading comprehension is the foundation for success at A-Level. By securing these skills now, your child will be better equipped to handle the advanced reading and independent study required for their chosen subjects, giving them a real head start for their time at Dereham Sixth Form College.

How do I find the right reading tutor for my child?

It's simple. Just use the search function on our website to see a list of available online reading tutors. You can read their profiles, check reviews from other parents, and even message them directly to ask questions before booking. This helps you find someone with the right experience and personality for your child.

What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

We want to make sure you find the perfect match, which is why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you don't get on with your first tutor, simply email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.

How do online lessons work?

Our online lessons take place in a purpose-built online classroom. It features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It's a secure and engaging way for your child to learn from the comfort of your own home. All you need is a laptop or computer with a stable internet connection.

How much does a reading tutor 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 transparency allows you to find an excellent tutor that fits your family's budget.

How can a tutor help my child if they've lost confidence in reading?

A one-to-one tutor provides a safe and encouraging space where your child can learn at their own pace without fear of making mistakes. By celebrating small wins and tailoring lessons to their interests, a tutor can help rebuild their self-esteem and rediscover a love for reading.

Are your tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors undergo a thorough vetting process, including identity and background checks. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.

How often should my child have a lesson?

We generally recommend one session per week to build momentum and see consistent progress. However, the frequency is completely flexible and can be arranged with your tutor to fit your child's needs and your family's schedule.

What results can I expect from reading tutoring?

Our goal is to help your child feel more confident and capable. We have a great track record, with over 200,000 happy students and 90% of our students improving by at least one grade. The biggest result we aim for is seeing your child feel less anxious and more positive about their learning.

Is tutoring just for core subjects like Reading and Maths, or can you help with other interests?

We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we're here to help with academic goals like SATs, GCSEs and A-Levels, we can also connect your child with expert tutors for hobbies and skills like learning guitar, coding in Python, or even speaking a new language.

How long are the tutoring sessions?

Most sessions are one hour long, which we find is the perfect amount of time to cover a topic in detail without your child losing focus. However, you can discuss different session lengths directly with your chosen tutor to find what works best.
