Primary English Tutors in Tamworth

What does a primary English tutor cover?

A primary English tutor typically covers reading fluency, comprehension (finding evidence, inference and deduction), spelling and grammar (SPaG), creative writing structure, punctuation rules and vocabulary development. For KS1 children, phonics and early reading are often the priority. For KS2, comprehension inference and extended writing are most commonly targeted.

My child passed the Phonics Screening Check but still struggles to read. Can a tutor help?

Yes, the Phonics Screening Check tests decoding, but reading comprehension is a separate skill. A child can decode fluently yet struggle to understand what they read, draw inferences or answer comprehension questions. A primary English tutor will work on both strands and help your child become a confident, meaning-focused reader.
