Expert Online Reading Tutors in Rugby to Help Your Child Thrive
We know how much you want to give your child the best possible start, and in Rugby, the 11+ can feel like a huge hurdle. It's completely understandable to worry that if your child's reading comprehension isn't strong enough, they might struggle with the verbal reasoning sections and miss out on a place at a school like Rugby High or Lawrence Sheriff.
A dedicated Reading tutor can make all the difference. They provide focused, one-to-one support to build your child's vocabulary, strengthen their understanding of texts, and give them the confidence to tackle those tricky exam questions. It's about giving them the tools they need to shine.

Reading Experienced & patient - SEND & reluctant learners.
I am a very patient and encouraging teacher. I focus on the needs of the learner which results in positive progress & improvement in confidence. I have a 'get the basics right first' approach. I have worked with hundreds of SEND students, with Autism, ADHD, selective mutism, Tourettes, anxiety, body dysmorphia and social/emotional issues, to name but a few. We are all different, and we can all celebrate achievement in different ways. The teacher/learner relationship is fundamental for me.

Tatiana S
Practical Reading Tutor
Many GCSE students understand vocabulary and grammar but struggle to use Spanish confidently in exams. Speaking feels stressful, writing lacks structure and listening often becomes guesswork. This leads to low confidence and inconsistent results, even in students who are capable.My GCSE lessons are structured, calm and exam-focused. I break Spanish down clearly and show students exactly how to build speaking answers, how to write in a way that meets exam criteria and how to approach listening papers with effective strategies. Grammar is explained simply and practiced in context, so students know...

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.
