Our Approach to Dyslexia Tutoring 

Dyslexia can present unique challenges, from struggling with reading and writing to feeling left behind in class. These challenges often affect a child’s confidence and academic progress. That’s why we focus on creating a safe, nurturing learning environment tailored to your child’s needs. 

Our highly experienced dyslexia tutors use creative, multisensory methods to make learning enjoyable and effective. By combining techniques such as visual aids, auditory cues, and interactive exercises, we ensure that lessons are both engaging and impactful. 

We treat each learner as an individual. With personalised teaching and one-on-one attention, students improve their literacy skills and develop essential self-confidence and motivation for their studies. Parents frequently see positive changes in academic performance as well as their child’s overall attitude towards learning.

Do I Need a Tutor for Dyslexia?

Deciding whether your child needs a dyslexia tutor can be challenging, but recognising the signs will help you make an informed choice.

A good tutor offers more than academic support—they will help your child regain confidence, enjoy learning and thrive in their education.

If your child struggles with reading, writing, or retaining information, or finds schoolwork increasingly frustrating, a tutor could help. Low confidence or falling behind in class are also key signs that additional support may be needed.

A specialised tutor provides tailored one-on-one attention, focusing on your child’s unique needs. They use techniques such as multisensory learning to improve reading and writing skills, build confidence, and make learning enjoyable.

Classroom settings don’t always allow for personalised attention. A dyslexia tutor can bridge this gap by reinforcing what is covered in school in a 1-1 setting. They offer targeted learning strategies which are adapted to your child’s individual needs and adapt to your child’s pace of learning. 

Testimonials

“Tania tutored my son maths for his 11+. She was an amazing tutor, who always displayed patience and kindness and really made a point in identifying all his strengths and areas of weakness. She would always send me detailed feedback after each session and we are extremely grateful for all her input in getting him into his preferred secondary school!”

FAQs

Dyslexia is a common learning difficulty that affects a person’s ability to read, write, and spell. It’s not related to intelligence but involves differences in how the brain processes language. Many individuals with dyslexia excel in creative thinking and problem-solving when given the right support.

Dyslexia affects approximately 10-15% of the UK population, with varying degrees of severity. It is one of the most prevalent learning difficulties, often diagnosed during primary school. However, some individuals may not receive a diagnosis until later in life.

Dyslexia tutoring provides personalised support to address specific challenges like reading fluency, spelling, and comprehension. Tutors use evidence-based methods, such as phonics and multisensory learning techniques, to build skills and confidence over time.

We assess your child’s specific needs, learning style, and personality to find the ideal tutor. This ensures a positive learning experience to help students feel supported and motivated.

Our tutors are highly experienced in teaching students with dyslexia. Many also have formal qualifications. They use proven approaches like Orton-Gillingham to build their students’ skills.

Absolutely. Our online platform is equipped with interactive tools, like shared whiteboards and document uploads, to create a highly engaging learning experience. Many students with dyslexia thrive in the comfort of their home environment. We also offer in-person tutoring in London.

Progress varies, but most children show increased confidence and noticeable skill development within a few months with regular lessons. Our tailored approach ensures each student advances at their own pace.

We support children from age 4 up to adulthood. Whatever stage of their academic career your child is at, our tutors adapt their lessons to suit their developmental and learning needs.
