Personalised maths and English tutoring for children with dyslexia

You don't need a diagnosis to start. If your child is finding learning harder than expected, we'll start by getting to know them and understanding where they need support.

Here's what we often hear from parents:

  • Confused by letters or sequences

  • Spelling that doesn't stick, even after plenty of practice

  • Avoiding reading aloud, or reading much slower than classmates

  • Knowing what they want to say but struggle to get it down on paper

  • Full of ideas and creativity but difficulty completing plans

We understand that every child's experience of dyslexia is different

Our dyslexia tutoring is tailored to your child’s individual needs. These are just a few of the challenges we hear about from families.

She has brilliant ideas, but getting them onto paper is such a struggle.

We give your child the time and support to work through learning without feeling rushed.

He reads something, gets to the end and can't remember what he's just read.

We break information into manageable parts to help your child make sense of what they're learning.

She's lost confidence in her abilities because everyone else finishes before her.

We work at your child's level and pace, helping progress feel achievable again.

If he gets something wrong once, he feels anxious about trying it again.

We create opportunities for achievable progress and practice without pressure

Dyslexia tutoring built around your child's way of learning

Rather than expecting your child to learn in one particular way, our tutors adapt explanations, pace and practice around what helps concepts make sense to them.

Making learning feel more manageable

When a task feels overwhelming, our tutors can break learning into smaller, clearer steps. Your child can take the time they need, revisit previous topics and work through maths and English without feeling rushed to keep up.

Building confidence in maths and English

We start at your child’s current level, giving them opportunities to recognise their progress. As their skills develop, their learning adapts with them, helping to rebuild confidence in what they can achieve.

If something isn’t making sense, our tutors will try a different explanation. By adapting how concepts are introduced and revisited, we can help your child find approaches that make learning easier to understand.

  • SEND-aware tutors. Our tutors are trained in SEND awareness and supported by education experts. They'll get to know how your child learns and adapt their approach around the individual rather than following a single fixed method.

  • Progress you can see. Regular updates through our app show you what your child has mastered and what they're working towards next, giving you a clearer picture of how their learning is progressing.

  • Truly individual learning. There's no fixed curriculum or pace your child has to keep up with. Their learning starts at their current level and continues to adapt as they progress.

He had very little confidence, didn't want to go to school and felt embarrassed about being behind. He can now read aloud in class with confidence, and that change in him has been life-changing.

Dyslexia made reading and processing information especially challenging. He now takes on harder tasks instead of shying away, and his confidence has grown massively. He feels supported and is proud of how far he's come.

My daughter joined two years behind her peers because of her dyslexia. She's now in set 1 for English and set 2 for maths, with predicted grades of 7 and 6.

My son is dyslexic and really struggles with reading. It's been amazing to see his confidence grow, and now he isn't afraid to read in front of groups at school.

Being dyslexic, he'd always found English difficult and had no confidence in it. His English scores are now better than his maths scores, and he's super confident.
