Hello and welcome! My name is Raquel and I look forward to meeting you soon. In the meantime, allow me to share with you why I choose to tutor: Mixed memories of middle school and college spring to mind. Excitement bubbling up to return to school after a fun and well spend summer holiday with family and friends. What formed part of the anticipation was the sense of being ready. Ready to sit in class with fellow classmates, ready to take home homework, planning and organising assignments. It may seem as if I had forgotten the stress and pressure I found myself under in the previous school year,...

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.

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
How do I choose the right Reading tutor for my child?
It's all about finding a great match for your child's personality and learning style. You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to chat about your child's needs before booking your first session.
My child attends a school in the Hedge End area. Can a tutor support their specific curriculum?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are familiar with the UK national curriculum and can tailor their lessons to match what your child is learning at their school in Hedge End, ensuring the support they receive is relevant and helpful.
How much do online Reading tutors in Hedge End cost?
Tutor prices vary depending on their experience and qualifications. You can easily filter tutors by price to find someone who fits your budget. All pricing is clearly shown on each tutor's profile with no hidden costs.
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 for any reason, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
We're preparing for school entrance exams in Hampshire. Can we find a tutor with that experience?
Yes, many tutors specialise in exam preparation, including the 11+ and entrance exams for local independent schools. You can use our search filters to find tutors with specific experience in helping children prepare for these tests.
How does online tutoring work? What equipment do we need?
All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Lessons take place in our interactive online classroom, which includes features like a shared whiteboard to make learning engaging and effective.
Is Tutorful just for academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we offer fantastic support for core subjects like Reading, Maths, and Science, we also have tutors for a huge range of other skills! Your child could learn anything from coding and guitar to a new language or even music production.
How can a tutor help my child if they find reading boring?
A great tutor can completely change a child's perspective on reading. By connecting books to your child's interests—whether that's football, fantasy, or science—they can make reading feel like an adventure rather than a chore.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors undergoes a thorough background check, and we personally interview them to ensure they are knowledgeable and passionate about teaching.
How long does it take to see progress in my child's reading?
Every child learns at their own pace, but the one-to-one attention from a tutor often leads to a noticeable boost in confidence within just a few sessions. Consistent lessons help to build momentum and achieve steady progress over time.
Can a tutor help my child with dyslexia or other reading difficulties?
Yes. Many of our tutors have specific experience and qualifications in supporting children with Special Educational Needs (SEN), including dyslexia. You can see this experience listed on their profiles or message them directly to ask.
What ages do you provide reading tutoring for?
We have tutors who specialise in supporting readers of all ages, from young children just learning phonics in primary school to teenagers analysing complex texts for their A-Levels, and even adult learners.
