For a student in Swindon, mastering reading means not just understanding school texts but also enjoying stories, confidently tackling exam papers, and clearly expressing their own ideas.

Focused Online Reading Support, Tailored for Your Child
Finding the right tutor can feel like a big decision, especially if you're new to the process. That's where we come in. Tell us about your child's specific needs – whether they're struggling with phonics, comprehension, or simply finding the joy in reading again – and we will thoughtfully match them with an experienced online Reading tutor. Our tutors are not just subject experts; they are skilled at building rapport and confidence, noticing when something hasn't quite clicked, and finding new ways to explain it.
Most parents imagine a simple video call, but our interactive online classroom is purpose-built for learning. Your child and their tutor will share a digital whiteboard, working through texts together, marking up passages, and breaking down complex sentences in real-time. Annotation tools allow for visual explanations, and every session is recorded, so your child can revisit challenging concepts or re-read explanations before an exam. It’s a dynamic, collaborative space designed to make learning Reading engaging and effective.
Online tutoring means no more worrying about travel from your home in Swindon or disrupting family plans. Sessions fit around your life – after school, at weekends, whenever works best for your child. They gain access to the very best Reading tutors from anywhere in the UK, not just those available locally. And if, for any reason, the first tutor isn't quite the right fit, we’ll happily cover your first session with a new tutor, ensuring your child gets the support they deserve.

He's been incredibly patient and supportive, while also encouraging improvement in his reading.

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.
