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!

Brilliant Special Educational Needs tutors who you’ll really click with.
Our experienced tutors take the time to understand where each student needs to focus and their preferred way of learning. They make a measurable difference – 90% of all students improve by at least one grade.
My child's London school has long waiting lists for SEN support. Can a tutor help now?
Yes, a private specialist SEN tutor can start providing one-to-one support immediately while you're waiting for school or local authority services. This means your child can begin building skills and confidence now, rather than falling further behind as they wait for other support to materialise.
We're trying to secure an EHCP through our London borough. Can a tutor help during this process?
While a tutor won't be part of the formal EHCP assessment, they can provide valuable academic and emotional support for both you and your child during what can be a very difficult time. They'll work on addressing specific learning gaps and offer a consistent, positive learning experience throughout the process.
How do I choose the right SEN tutor for my child?
Using our platform you can browse tutor profiles, watch their introduction videos, and read reviews from other parents. Many of our tutors have experience working with specific conditions such as dyslexia, dyspraxia, or ADHD. We'd recommend messaging a few tutors to find someone who feels right for both you and your child.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that personality matters, and that's why we offer our First Lesson Guarantee. If you and your child just don't get on with your tutor, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we'll cover your first session with a new tutor.
How much does a Special Educational Needs tutor in London cost?
Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly shown on their profiles. Pricing varies depending on experience and qualifications, but there are no hidden fees or contracts with Tutorful, giving you the flexibility to find an expert within your budget.
How can tutoring help my child feel more confident at school?
Confidence grows from understanding. When a tutor explains topics in a way that makes sense to your child, those breakthrough moments create real progress. Celebrating these successes in a supportive one-to-one setting builds self-esteem that carries over into the classroom.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our priority, and every tutor on Tutorful has undergone a thorough background check. We take this seriously, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How do the online lessons actually work?
Sessions take place in our virtual classroom, which features a shared whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing. Your child can connect with their specialist tutor from anywhere in London, making lessons straightforward and effective.
What makes Tutorful's SEN tutors different?
We carefully select tutors from across the UK, accepting only 1 in 8 applicants. This means you're choosing from highly qualified and experienced educators who are committed to providing personalised support for students with additional needs.
How often should my child have lessons?
Many families find that one hour per week provides good consistency without feeling overwhelming. However, you can arrange sessions as frequently as works best for your child and their tutor.
Can a tutor help with a specific diagnosis like dyslexia or ADHD?
Many of our SEN tutors have training and experience supporting children with various needs, including dyslexia, dyscalculia, ADHD, and autism spectrum conditions. You can check their profiles for this information and message them directly to discuss your child's specific needs.
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.
