David H
Experienced & Qualified Primary School Special Educational Needs Teacher (11+ & SATs)
Hi there! I'm David - a fully qualified primary school teacher with over 10 years teaching experience. I've taught children with SEN, EAL, behavioural problems and gifted children, across all primary stages. In the past 2 years, I have been tutoring online.Most of my teaching has been in Year 6, specialising in getting children ready for the 11+ exams (English, Maths, Verbal & Non Verbal) and SATs papers (Reading, SPaG & Maths). I know how tricky and confusing it can be for children - and parents - in the lead up to these tests. Whilst tutoring online, I have been specifically focusing on bridging...

Lina H
Professional and inspiring Special Educational Needs and English tutor
Maths is usually the subject students struggle with most at school mainly due to the lack of individual help during lessons. Students often don’t ask for help when faced with a topic they find hard and so they develop gaps in their learning, which in itself become problematic later on. In my opinion the first objective of private tutoring in maths should be to systematically deal with those gaps, which are usually identified within the first couple of lessons. Once the gaps are covered, we can then proceed to cover the necessary course material based on individual requirements.I have extensive e...

I’m 33 years old and have been working for almost five years in a special education school, supporting students with autism and complex cognitive or behavioral challenges.

Angela U
Creative Special Educational Needs tutor
Hi! I am a full-time tutor with a background in Biochemistry, Genetics and Biomedical Science. My journey into a career in STEM was definitely difficult and unorthodox, and because of this I am a keen advocate for removing barriers to entry to the Sciences for women and BAME.I have been working in education since 2019, and started in schools, tutoring in small group sessions and 1:1 classes in Science and Maths, at GCSE and A-level. Like many during the pandemic, I switched to online teaching in 2020 and have been doing so ever since!I specialise in teaching those with Special Educational Needs...

Siobhan R
My son has been tutoring with Siobhan for quite a while now and all i can say is how fantastic she has been in guiding him through his mathematics journey!
Her patience, ways of explaining and using visuals to help him understand, the time she takes to get to know how he learns and checking to ensure he fully grasps a concept, are all very commendable!
His confidence has increased and he looks forward to his lessons knowing that Siobhan will be there to support him in a subject that previously he was very anxious about.

Laura T
Laura conducted the lesson in a way that was suitable to my needs. She broke down the reading material so that I could read it paragraph by paragraph. She also backed it up by devising questions about the text to aid my comprehension. Towards the end of the lesson she reviewed how much I had learnt from what I read so far. I really like her style of teaching.

John M
I would like to share my positive experience with John's English lessons. My daughter thoroughly enjoys every session and looks forward to each one with great enthusiasm. John’s empathetic, professional, and friendly approach makes him stand out, and he creates a supportive and positive learning environment that truly benefits my daughter.
My daughter has special needs, including autism and attention challenges, but with John's help, she has been able to stay engaged and focused throughout the full hour of each lesson. In just a few lessons, she has made really good progress, and I am extremely grateful for John's patience, dedication, and encouragement.
His constant praise and positive reinforcement have been invaluable in boosting my daughter’s confidence and motivation. We are very thankful for the positive impact John has had on her learning journey.
Highly recommended!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child's London school has long waiting lists for SEN support. Can a tutor help now?
Yes, absolutely. An online tutor can provide immediate, one-to-one support while you wait for school or local authority services. It's a powerful way to ensure your child doesn't fall behind and can start building skills and confidence right away.
We're trying to secure an EHCP through our London borough. Can a tutor help during this process?
While a tutor can't be part of the official EHCP assessment, they can provide invaluable academic and confidence-building support for your child during what can be a stressful time. They can help address specific learning gaps and provide a consistent, positive learning experience.
How do I choose the right SEN tutor for my child?
It’s all about the right fit. You can read tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. Many of our tutors have specific experience with conditions like dyslexia, dyspraxia, or ADHD. We recommend messaging a few to find someone you and your child feel comfortable with.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We understand that finding the right personality 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 a Special Educational Needs tutor in London cost?
Our tutors set their own rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on the tutor's experience and qualifications. With no hidden fees or contracts, you have the flexibility to find an expert who fits your budget.
How can tutoring help my child feel more confident at school?
Confidence often comes from understanding. When a tutor takes the time to break down topics in a way your child gets, it creates 'lightbulb' moments. Celebrating these small wins in a supportive one-to-one setting builds self-esteem that they take back into the classroom.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has undergone a thorough background check. We are very strict about this, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How do the online lessons actually work?
Our online classroom has everything needed for a great lesson, including a shared whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing. It’s a simple and effective way for your child to learn from a specialist tutor, no matter where you are in London.
What makes Tutorful's SEN tutors different?
We handpick the best tutors from across the UK, accepting only 1 in 8 who apply. This means you're choosing from a pool of highly qualified and experienced educators who are dedicated to providing personalised support for students with additional needs.
How often should my child have lessons?
Most families find that a one-hour session once a week is a great starting point. This provides consistency without being overwhelming. However, you can arrange sessions as often as you and the tutor feel is best for your child.
Can a tutor help with a specific diagnosis like dyslexia or ADHD?
Many of our SEN tutors have specific experience and training in supporting children with a wide range of needs, including dyslexia, dyscalculia, ADHD, and autism spectrum conditions. You can check their profiles for this information and message them to discuss your child's specific requirements.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
It's for everything! While we have thousands of tutors for core subjects like Maths and English, we also have experts who can teach life skills, coding, a musical instrument like the guitar, or even a new language. It's all about helping your child pursue their passions.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
