Personalised Reading Support to Help Your Child Thrive
We know you want the very best for your child, which is why we only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply. The right tutor will take the time to understand your child's unique learning style and what they find tricky, whether it's phonics or understanding the subtext in a story. This creates a supportive partnership focused entirely on them. Every lesson is built around your child's specific needs. Instead of a one-size-fits-all approach, a session might focus on decoding difficult words, exploring character motivations, or learning how to structure an essay. This targeted support helps them make real, noticeable progress and feel great about their learning. Finding the right support shouldn't be another thing to worry about. With online tutoring, you can connect with the perfect Reading tutor from anywhere, scheduling lessons at times that fit around your family's life. It’s flexible, convenient, and designed to help your child succeed.

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
How do I choose the right Reading tutor for my child?
It's all about finding the right fit for your child's personality and learning needs. You can view detailed tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and even message tutors before booking to ask about their approach. Finding someone your child connects with is the first step to success.
Are the tutors actually based in Thetford?
Our tutors are online, which means you get the best of both worlds! You can find an expert Reading tutor who is available to support your child in Thetford, but they could be based anywhere in the UK. This gives you a much wider choice of specialists than you would find locally.
My child is preparing for 11+ exams for a school in Norfolk. Can a tutor help?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in entrance exam preparation, including the 11+. You can filter your search for tutors with this experience and find someone who can help your child build the specific comprehension and reasoning skills needed for schools in the Norfolk area.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We understand that the right student-tutor relationship is key. 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.
How much does online Reading tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. You can easily see each tutor's hourly rate on their profile and use our search filters to find trusted tutors who fit within your budget.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence?
One-to-one tutoring provides a safe, encouraging space where there's no fear of asking 'silly' questions. Tutors celebrate small wins and break down big challenges into manageable steps, which helps your child see their own progress and feel more confident in their abilities.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors are background-checked and we carefully interview every applicant. We only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
What happens in a typical online Reading lesson?
Lessons are interactive and tailored to your child. A tutor might use the online whiteboard to break down a text, work on vocabulary exercises, or practice comprehension techniques. The focus is always on your child's specific goals for that session.
Do you only offer academic subjects like Reading?
Not at all! We believe in changing lives through learning in all its forms. Alongside core subjects like Maths, English, and Science, you can find expert tutors for hobbies and skills like learning the guitar, coding, or speaking a new language.
How do I know if my child is making progress?
Our tutors provide regular feedback on how your child is doing. More importantly, you'll likely see it for yourself in their growing confidence, their willingness to pick up a book, and their improved results at school.
What equipment do we need for online lessons?
It's very simple. All you need is a laptop or tablet with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is easy to use and has all the tools needed for a great learning experience.
How long are the tutoring sessions?
Most sessions are an hour long, as this gives enough time to cover a topic in depth without being overwhelming. However, you can discuss your child's needs with your chosen tutor, as many are flexible.
