Lorrayne N
Lorrayne was extremely kind, patient and understanding when working with my son. He has cerebral palsy, selective mutism and anxiety, so finding the right tutor who truly understands his needs is very important to us.
She took the time to speak with me in detail to understand Isaac’s background and the challenges he faces in school. I really appreciated how knowledgeable she is about supporting children with anxiety and communication difficulties. Isaac felt comfortable during the session and was able to engage with the activities she set, which was very encouraging for us.
Lorrayne also shared helpful ideas and strategies to support Isaac’s communication and confidence, which showed how experienced she is working with children with additional needs.
We are really looking forward to continuing lessons with her and feel confident that Isaac will benefit from her support.

Christy J
Christy showed extreme patience with my son during his English SATs tutoring.
Her tutoring style was such that she always kept him engaged and interested in his sessions.
The results have been seen already from his mock results. He has improved in all sections of his English SATs.
Christy provided homework in the form of spellings that we were able to practice in-between sessions.
She also worked with my son on past papers with him completing these under exam conditions.
I am so grateful to Christy and all the work and supports she did with my son.
I will be using her again in the future for other subjects.
Thank you Christy

Very friendly and engaging with my son (year 6 / KS2), making it enjoyable for him rather than ‘more school’. Early days but progress clearly visible which is great. Would highly recommend.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is preparing for SATs in york. Do your tutors understand the expectations of local schools?
Absolutely. All our tutors are experts in the National Curriculum, which is the standard for all state primary schools in England, including those in york. They can tailor sessions to complement what your child is learning at school, helping them feel fully prepared for the transition to any local secondary school.
We live in york, so how does online tutoring work if the tutor isn't local?
This is one of the biggest benefits! Because all our tutoring is online, your child in york can connect with the very best SATs specialists from across the UK, not just whoever happens to live nearby. All you need is a laptop or tablet with an internet connection for them to learn comfortably from home.
Is online tutoring as effective for primary-aged children as meeting in person?
Yes, and many children thrive in an online environment. Our interactive classroom has features like a digital whiteboard and screen sharing, which make lessons fun and engaging. Learning from the comfort and familiarity of their own home can often help a child feel more relaxed and focused.
What if my child doesn't click with the first SATs tutor we try?
We know how important the right student-tutor relationship is. If the first session isn't a perfect fit for any reason, please email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first lesson with a new tutor. We're committed to helping you find the perfect match.
After SATs, do you offer tutoring for other subjects or even hobbies?
We do! We're here to support your child's learning journey long after SATs. We have expert tutors for over 300 subjects, from core GCSE and A-Level topics to languages, coding, music tuition, and art. We can help them explore new interests or tackle future academic challenges.
How do you ensure your SATs tutors are qualified and safe?
Your child's safety and quality of education are our top priorities. We have a rigorous selection process, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor is interviewed, has their ID verified, and must pass an enhanced DBS background check before they can teach on our platform.
How much does online SATs tutoring for a student in york cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates based on their experience and qualifications. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, so you can find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden costs or booking fees – you just pay for the tuition time you book.
How quickly will my child's confidence improve?
Every child learns at their own pace, but the one-to-one attention from a dedicated tutor often boosts confidence very quickly. When a child feels truly supported and starts to see 'I get it!' moments, their self-belief can grow within just a few sessions.
How flexible are lesson times around our family's schedule?
Extremely flexible. You can see each tutor's availability on their profile and message them directly to arrange lesson times that work for you. Whether it's after school, on a weekend, or during the holidays, you can find a schedule that fits around your family's commitments in york.
Can a tutor help my child with specific areas like exam technique?
Yes, that's a key part of what they do. A great SATs tutor will identify the exact areas where your child needs support, whether it's mastering long division, understanding complex sentences, or simply managing their time effectively in the test. The lessons are completely tailored to their needs.
Can tutoring help my child feel less anxious about the transition to a big secondary school in York?
Definitely. A huge part of that anxiety comes from the fear of not being able to keep up. By ensuring your child has a rock-solid foundation in Maths and English, tutoring gives them the academic confidence they need to walk into secondary school feeling capable and ready for the new challenge.
How much does online SATs tutoring for a student in york cost?
It's simple. You can use our search filters to narrow down tutors by subject and price. Then, read their profiles, watch their introduction videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend sending a message to a few tutors to chat about your child's needs before you book.
