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
My child is worried about the step up to National 5s at their school in Fife. Can a tutor help?
Yes, absolutely. This is a common concern for parents, and our tutors are experienced in helping students manage the transition to National 5s and Highers. A tutor can work with your child to build the specific reading comprehension and analytical skills needed for the curriculum, giving them the confidence to tackle more challenging texts.
We're hoping our child might apply to the University of St Andrews one day. Can a tutor help build those foundational skills?
Definitely. Strong reading and critical thinking skills are essential for entry into competitive university courses. A tutor can help your child develop a deep and confident understanding of texts from an early age, creating a solid foundation that will support them throughout their school journey and into higher education.
How do I choose the right reading tutor for my child?
You can view each tutor's profile, watch their introductory video, and read reviews from other parents. Many tutors offer a free 15-minute chat, which is a great way for you and your child to meet them, discuss your goals, and see if it's a good fit before booking a lesson.
What if my child doesn't click with their first reading tutor?
We understand that the right fit is crucial for building confidence. 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.
How do online lessons work?
Our online lessons take place in a purpose-built online classroom. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and document sharing, making it easy for your child to collaborate with their tutor. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection.
How can a tutor help my child with reading comprehension specifically?
A tutor will first identify where your child is struggling. They can then use targeted exercises, from learning to spot context clues to understanding character motivations, to build those specific skills. The one-to-one focus means they can go at your child's pace, ensuring they truly grasp each concept.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors have undergone a background check. We are also very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from a trusted and experienced expert.
How much does a reading tutor in Fife cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
How can tutoring help my child feel more confident at school?
Confidence often comes from understanding. When a tutor helps your child fill in the gaps in their knowledge, they start to feel more capable and less anxious about speaking up in class or tackling new topics. This boost in self-esteem can have a positive impact on all their subjects.
How long will my child need a tutor for?
This is completely up to you and depends on your child's goals. Some parents use tutors for a short-term boost before an exam, while others prefer regular weekly sessions to build skills and confidence over time. You can discuss this directly with your chosen tutor.
Is tutoring just for academic subjects like Reading, or can my child learn other skills?
Absolutely! While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects, we also offer support for everything from learning to play the guitar or piano to coding in Python. It's all about helping your child explore their interests and build new skills.
What age groups do your reading tutors work with?
Our tutors support learners of all ages. We have specialists who work with young children on their first steps with phonics, primary students building fluency, and older students preparing for National 5s, Highers, and even university-level study. You can filter your search to find the right tutor for your child's age group.

Guaranteed.
