Building Real Confidence and Lasting Understanding
For a child with specific learning needs, true progress isn't just about grades – it's about the lightbulb moment when a difficult concept finally clicks. It's about discovering their own way of learning and feeling proud of it. Specialist support helps them build practical strategies, whether that’s breaking down a complex science topic into manageable steps or finding a new way to organise their thoughts for an English essay. This is how they learn to navigate challenges independently and walk into any classroom feeling capable and prepared.

This is about building a genuine partnership where your child feels safe to ask questions and confident enough to try again. It’s this relationship that turns ‘I can’t’ into a quiet, determined ‘I’ll give it a go’.

And because it’s all online, that support fits seamlessly into your family’s life. No stressful journeys across Manchester after a long school day.

Special Educational Needs Experienced & patient - SEND & reluctant learners.
I am a very patient and encouraging teacher. I focus on the needs of the learner which results in positive progress & improvement in confidence. I have a 'get the basics right first' approach. I have worked with hundreds of SEND students, with Autism, ADHD, selective mutism, Tourettes, anxiety, body dysmorphia and social/emotional issues, to name but a few.

Find a tutor 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 This is a common concern we hear from parents. An online SEN tutor acts as your child's consistent, personal academic guide. Whilst school support can be stretched, their tutor provides a stable anchor, working at their pace to pre-teach topics, reinforce classroom learning, and build strategies to manage the demands of a busier environment. It ensures they don't get left behind.
