Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

We're aiming for a place at a competitive school like Colyton Grammar. Can a tutor help prepare my child for the 11+ reading exam?

Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in 11+ and entrance exam preparation. They can help your child build the specific comprehension, vocabulary, and verbal reasoning skills needed to feel confident and prepared for the exam.

My child hopes to go to the University of Exeter one day. Can a reading tutor help build skills for that?

Definitely. Strong reading and critical analysis skills are essential for university-level study. A tutor can help your child build a solid foundation now, improving how they analyse texts and articulate ideas, which will be invaluable for their A-Levels and future degree.

How do I choose the right Reading tutor for my child?

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.

How much does online Reading tutoring in Exeter cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can set your own budget and filter your search to find a great tutor who fits your family's finances. All pricing is shown clearly on each tutor's profile.

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

We know how important the right fit is. 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, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed an enhanced DBS check and has had their ID and references verified before they can start teaching.

How can a tutor help my child with reading confidence, not just grades?

Confidence is key. In a one-to-one setting, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might be too shy to ask in class. A supportive tutor celebrates small wins and helps them see their own progress, which can transform how they feel about reading.

My child finds reading a bit of a chore. How can a tutor make it more engaging?

Our tutors are brilliant at making learning fun. They can tailor lessons around your child's interests, whether that's football, fantasy, or science, using relevant articles, stories, and activities to make reading feel less like work and more like an adventure.

Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or guitar?

We offer tutoring for a huge range of subjects and skills beyond the school curriculum. From learning an instrument like the guitar to practical skills like coding or even a new language, you can find an expert tutor to support your child's passions.

How long is a typical online tutoring session?

Most sessions are one hour long, which gives enough time to cover a topic in detail without your child losing focus. However, you can always discuss different lesson lengths with your tutor to find what works best for your child.

What happens in the first lesson?

The first session is usually about getting to know each other. The tutor will chat with your child about what they enjoy, what they find tricky, and what they want to achieve. It’s a relaxed way to build a good rapport and create a plan for future lessons.

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 progress. Most importantly, you'll likely see a positive change in your child's confidence and attitude towards their reading.
