Why students need help
Children who struggle with reading often develop strategies to mask the difficulty, memorising common words, avoiding reading aloud or losing concentration, so the underlying phonics gap compounds over time without targeted one-to-one intervention.
An online Reading Supporttutor works one-to-one at the student's pace, targeting the exact gaps holding them back.
Frequently asked questions
How does online Reading Support tutoring work?
Online Reading Support tutoring takes place over video call (Zoom, Google Meet or a dedicated tutoring platform). Tutors share their screen, use interactive whiteboards and can annotate documents or worksheets in real time. For most subjects, research consistently shows online sessions are as effective as in-person. The main advantage is access to the best specialists nationwide rather than only those within driving distance.
How much does an online Reading Support tutor cost?
Online Reading Support tutors in the UK typically charge £25–£65/hr depending on the level, the tutor's qualifications and experience. Online rates are sometimes slightly lower than in-person because there are no travel costs on either side. On TutorLab every tutor sets their own rate and it is visible on their profile before you make contact, with no agency commission on top.
What do I need for an online Reading Support tutoring session?
A reliable internet connection, a laptop or tablet with a working camera and microphone, and a quiet space to work. Some tutors use a shared digital whiteboard, particularly useful for maths and sciences. Your tutor will tell you exactly which tools they use before the first session.

Browse the profiles above and look for a tutor whose experience matches the student's current level and goal.
