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 aiming for an Essex grammar school like Colchester Royal Grammar. Can I find a tutor with 11+ experience?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in 11+ preparation and have extensive experience with the specific requirements of the Essex grammar school entrance exams. You can check their profiles for details on their 11+ experience and even message them for free to discuss your child's needs.
We live in Maldon. Do the tutors understand the local 11+ exam format?
While our tutors are based across the UK, many specialise in specific exam boards and regional entrance exams, including the Essex 11+. They are skilled at tailoring their teaching to the format and content your child will face, ensuring they are well-prepared and confident on exam day.
How do I choose the right Reading tutor for my child?
Finding the right match is so important. We recommend watching tutors' introduction videos and reading reviews from other parents. You can also use our messaging system to chat with tutors for free before booking to make sure their teaching style is a good fit for your child's personality and learning needs.
What if my child doesn't click with their first Reading tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect fit. 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 can a tutor help my child build confidence in Reading?
A great tutor creates a positive and encouraging environment where your child feels safe to ask questions and make mistakes. By breaking down tricky topics into manageable steps and celebrating small wins, they help your child see their own progress, which is a fantastic confidence booster.
How much does online Reading tuition cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, typically starting from around £20 per hour. Prices are based on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can easily filter tutors by price to find someone who fits your budget.
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 way to share documents. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors must have a valid DBS certificate (or equivalent) and provide professional references before they can join our platform. We also interview every single tutor to ensure they're the best of the best.
How do I know if my child is making progress?
Our tutors provide regular feedback to keep you updated on your child's progress. You can also message your tutor at any time to discuss how things are going. Seeing your child's confidence grow and their understanding deepen is often the clearest sign of progress.
Is Tutorful just for academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills too?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! Beyond core academic subjects, your child can learn practical skills like coding or a new language, explore hobbies like guitar or singing, and even get support with university applications.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
Most lessons are one hour long, which we find is the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without your child losing focus. However, you can always discuss different lesson lengths with your tutor to find what works best.
How soon can my child start their first lesson?
You can get started very quickly. Once you've found a tutor you like, you can message them to arrange your first lesson. Many of our tutors have availability within the next few days.
