Why Strong Reading Skills are Key for Your Child's Future
Beyond the 11+ exam, strong reading is the skill that underpins everything else. From analysing quotes in a GCSE English essay on 'Macbeth' to understanding complex problems in a science paper, the ability to read with confidence and understanding is essential. It opens doors to A-Levels, university courses, and future careers by giving your child the tools to learn independently and tackle any new challenge that comes their way.

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.

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 Gloucestershire 11+. Can I find a tutor with specific experience?
Yes, absolutely. Many tutors on our platform have experience helping children prepare for the 11+ exam. You can check their profiles for details on their expertise and even message them before booking to ask about their approach to building the vocabulary and comprehension skills needed for the Gloucestershire test.
We're hoping for a place at a grammar school like Pate's or The Crypt. Can a tutor help with this specific goal?
Definitely. While we can't guarantee entry, a tutor can be a huge help. They can focus on the specific types of questions and level of reading comprehension required for these competitive schools, helping your child build the skills and confidence to perform at their best.
What if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure it's the right fit for your child. That's 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.
Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
It’s for so much more! While we have tutors for core subjects from the 11+ right up to degree level, you can also find experts in hobbies and life skills. From learning to play the guitar or speak Spanish to getting to grips with coding, there's a tutor for almost any interest.
How do I choose the right Reading tutor for my child?
You can read reviews from other parents, watch introductory videos, and check each tutor's qualifications and experience on their profile. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking. It helps you get a feel for their personality and teaching style.
How much does a Reading tutor in Tewkesbury cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and level of demand. Each tutor sets their own hourly rate, which is clearly displayed on their profile. You can filter your search by price to find a great tutor who fits your budget.
My child's confidence is low. Can tutoring help with that?
This is one of the biggest benefits parents tell us about. In a one-to-one setting, tutors can create a safe space for your child to ask questions without fear of getting it wrong. This personal attention and encouragement often leads to a fantastic boost in self-belief.
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. It’s a simple and effective way for your child to learn from home, with all their lesson materials saved in one place.
How do you make sure the tutors are high quality?
We're very selective because your child's safety and success are our priorities. Every tutor is background-checked and has to pass a rigorous application process. In fact, we only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure you're choosing from the best.
How quickly will I see my child improve?
Every child learns at their own pace, but our data shows that 90% of students improve by at least one grade with regular lessons. The key is consistency and the personalised attention a tutor provides, which helps build understanding and confidence week by week.
What if our schedule is already packed?
That's the great thing about online tutoring. You're not limited to tutors in your immediate area, so you have a much wider choice of available times. You can schedule lessons for evenings or weekends, fitting them around school, clubs, and family commitments.
Is Tutorful a trusted platform?
Yes, we're proud to have helped over 200,000 students on their learning journeys. We have a rating of 4.6 stars from over 4,100 reviews from parents just like you, so you can feel confident you're making a great choice for your child.
