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
We live in Edmonton and are aiming for schools like The Latymer School. Can a tutor help with 11+ reading comprehension?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in 11+ preparation and have experience helping children develop the specific reading comprehension and verbal reasoning skills needed for grammar school entrance exams. You can filter for tutors with this expertise on their profiles.
As we're in the borough of Enfield, is the tutoring geared towards the local curriculum?
Yes, our tutors are experienced with the UK national curriculum and can tailor their support to what your child is learning at school in Enfield. They can help reinforce classroom learning, build foundational skills, and prepare for specific exams like SATs, GCSEs, and A-Levels.
What if my child doesn't get on with their first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match, which is 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.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we have tutors for all core academic subjects, we also offer support in a huge range of other areas! From learning a musical instrument like the guitar to practical skills like coding, there’s a tutor to help your child explore their interests beyond the classroom.
How do I choose the right Reading tutor for my child?
You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. Many tutors also offer a free 15-minute video chat, which is a great way for you and your child to meet them and ensure it's a good fit before booking a lesson.
How much does an online Reading tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles, so you can easily find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
My child has lost their confidence with reading. Can a tutor help?
Definitely. This is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tuition. A great tutor provides a safe, encouraging space for your child to ask questions and make mistakes without fear of judgement. They celebrate small wins and build your child's self-esteem, which often has a positive impact on all their subjects.
How do you vet your tutors?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has been through a rigorous selection process, including an interview and a background check. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
How do the online lessons work?
Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It's a simple and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of home.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one hour-long session per week is ideal for making steady progress. However, the schedule is completely flexible. You can arrange more frequent lessons during exam periods or less frequent top-up sessions as needed, all in discussion with your tutor.
What equipment do we need for online tutoring?
It's very simple. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is browser-based, so there's no software to download.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Your tutor will provide regular feedback on your child's development. You can message them at any time to discuss progress and goals. This open communication ensures you're always aware of how your child is getting on and what they're working towards.
