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...

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

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.
