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
My child is preparing for the 11+ for a Calderdale grammar school. Can a tutor help with this?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors have specific experience with 11+ preparation. They can help your child develop the strong reading comprehension and verbal reasoning skills needed to tackle the exam questions with confidence.
We're hoping for a place at Greenhead College. How can a reading tutor support this long-term goal?
That's a fantastic goal. A strong reading tutor can build the foundational skills your child needs to achieve the high GCSE English grades required for entry. They'll focus on everything from analytical skills to understanding complex texts, preparing them for success long before they submit their application.
How do I choose the right reading tutor for my child?
It's all about finding the right fit for your child's personality and learning style. You can read detailed profiles, watch introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking your first lesson.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the student-tutor relationship is. That's why we have our first lesson guarantee. If you don't feel the first tutor is the right fit, simply email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How much does online reading tutoring cost in Huddersfield?
Our tutors set their own rates, so prices can vary based on their experience and qualifications. You can easily see each tutor's price per hour on their profile, allowing you to find an expert who fits your family's budget.
How can a tutor help my child with reading confidence, not just grades?
Confidence is key. A one-to-one tutor creates a safe, encouraging environment where your child can learn at their own pace without the fear of getting it wrong in front of a class. This personalised support often leads to a newfound enjoyment of reading and a big boost in self-esteem.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed an enhanced DBS check. We are very selective, only accepting 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or guitar?
While we offer fantastic support for academic subjects like Reading, Maths, and Science, we also have expert tutors for hundreds of other skills! Your child can learn everything from coding and playing the guitar to a new language or even public speaking.
How does online tutoring work for a subject like reading?
Our online classroom has all the tools needed for fantastic reading lessons, including an interactive whiteboard, document sharing, and video chat. Tutors can share texts, highlight passages, and work through exercises with your child in real-time, making it just as effective as being in the same room.
How long will my child need a tutor for?
This really depends on your child's individual goals. Some students need a few lessons to prepare for a specific exam, while others benefit from weekly support throughout the school year. You can discuss this directly with your chosen tutor, with no pressure to commit to a set number of lessons.
Can tutoring help if my child has fallen behind with their reading?
Definitely. One-to-one tutoring is one of the most effective ways to help a child catch up. A tutor can identify the specific areas where your child is struggling and create a tailored plan to fill in those gaps, helping them get back on track and feel positive about their learning.
What makes Tutorful different from other tutoring companies?
We focus on finding the perfect match for your child. With thousands of expert, vetted tutors, you have an incredible choice. We're proud to have helped over 200,000 students and to have earned a 4.6-star rating from over 4,100 reviews from parents just like you.
