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 at Newmarket Academy. Can a tutor help them keep up with the reading demands there?
Yes, absolutely. Our tutors can provide support that complements what your child is learning at school. They can help with everything from homework to understanding set texts, building their skills and confidence so they feel fully prepared for their classes at Newmarket Academy.
We're worried about our child getting into a competitive sixth form near Cambridge. Can a tutor help?
We understand that concern. A tutor can be a huge help by strengthening your child’s core reading and comprehension skills. This solid foundation is crucial for achieving the strong GCSE grades needed for applications to competitive sixth forms and A-Level programmes.
How do I choose the right Reading tutor for my child?
Finding the perfect match is simple. You can read detailed tutor profiles, check qualifications, and see what other parents have said in our 4,100+ reviews. You can also message tutors for free before booking to make sure they're a great fit for your child's personality and needs.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect fit, which is why we have a 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.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident with their reading?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one session, your child has a safe space to ask questions they might be too shy to ask in class. A tutor can break down topics in a way that clicks for them, celebrating small wins and building their self-belief lesson by lesson.
How much does online Reading tutoring cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, so you can find an option that suits your budget. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, with no hidden fees or contracts. You simply pay as you go for the lessons you book.
How do you make sure your tutors are safe and qualified?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is background-checked and must pass a rigorous application process. We interview every tutor and only accept 1 in every 8 who apply, so you can be sure your child is learning from the best.
How do the online lessons actually work?
Our online classroom is designed to be simple and engaging. It includes video chat, an interactive whiteboard for drawing and writing, and a space to share documents. It has all the tools your child needs to collaborate with their tutor effectively, just as if they were in the same room.
Is tutoring just for school subjects?
Not at all! While we help thousands of students with academic subjects from primary school to degree level, we also have brilliant tutors for hobbies and life skills. Whether your child wants to learn guitar, master coding with Python, or pick up a new language, we can help.
How often should my child have a lesson?
This really depends on your child's goals. Most families find that a one-hour lesson each week is a great way to build momentum and see steady progress. However, you can arrange sessions as frequently as you feel is necessary with your chosen tutor.
What equipment does my child need for an online lesson?
It's very simple. All your child needs is a laptop, desktop, or tablet with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. There's no special software to download as everything runs directly in your web browser.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Our tutors provide regular feedback on how your child is doing. You can also message your tutor at any time to discuss their progress and goals. Most importantly, you'll likely see a positive change in your child's confidence and attitude towards their reading.
