How we know: counts and prices come from the published Phonics tutor profiles on TutorLab, never from unclaimed listings. A range is the middle half of the prices tutors publish at that level, shown as the all-in hourly price a family pays; with fewer than six published prices the lowest is shown instead.

About Phonics tuition

Phonics tutoring supports children in Reception, Year 1 and Year 2 who are learning to decode and blend sounds, as well as older children who have gaps in their phonics knowledge affecting reading fluency. It covers the sounds of the English language, grapheme-phoneme correspondence and the systematic approach behind the Year 1 Phonics Screening Check.

Many children who struggle with reading have specific phonics gaps, not a general reading problem, and targeted one-to-one phonics tutoring can close those gaps in weeks rather than months when the tutor knows which sounds and blends are causing difficulty.

What is the Year 1 Phonics Screening Check?

A phonics tutor can prepare children for the check using practice materials that mirror the format.
