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 preparing for the 11+ for schools in Liverpool or the Wirral. Can a tutor help?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in 11+ preparation. They can focus on the specific comprehension, vocabulary, and reasoning skills your child will need, helping them build confidence and familiarity with the exam format.
We're considering Merchant Taylors'. Can I find a tutor with experience in independent school entrance exams?
Yes. You can use our search filters to find tutors with specific experience in entrance exams. We always recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's goals and find the perfect match for their preparation.
How can tutoring help my child get into a top set at their comprehensive school?
By providing targeted support, a tutor can help fill any knowledge gaps and build your child's confidence in their reading ability. This often leads to better performance and greater engagement in class, which are key factors schools consider for setting.
How do I pick the right Reading tutor for my child?
Start by reading their profiles, checking their experience, and looking at reviews from other parents. You can message tutors for free to ask questions about their approach before booking. It's all about finding someone your child will connect with.
How much does online Reading tutoring cost?
Our tutors set their own prices, which are displayed clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and level of demand. You can easily filter by price to find a great tutor who fits your budget.
What happens if my child doesn't get on with their tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect fit, 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.
How do online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a space to share documents. It's a simple, secure, and effective way to learn from the comfort of your home.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes. We take your child's safety very seriously. We interview every applicant and only accept 1 in 8 who apply. All of our tutors have been background-checked to ensure they are safe to work with children.
How can a tutor help if my child finds reading boring?
A great tutor can make reading fun by choosing books and texts that match your child's interests, from fantasy novels to articles about their favourite sport. They can turn reading from a chore into an adventure, building confidence along the way.
How often should my child have a lesson?
It's completely flexible. Most families find that a one-hour lesson each week works well, but you can arrange a schedule that suits your child's needs and your family's routine directly with your tutor.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! Alongside core academic subjects, your child can learn practical skills like coding, a new language for a holiday, or even how to play the guitar. There's something for everyone.
My child has fallen behind. Can a tutor help them catch up?
Definitely. One-to-one tuition is one of the best ways to help a child catch up. A tutor can go over topics at your child's pace, fill in any gaps in their understanding, and rebuild the confidence they need to succeed in the classroom.
