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.
North London, covering areas like Islington, Haringey and Barnet, has a large private tuition market, particularly for 11 Plus preparation.
Every Phonics tutor listed for North London sets their own rates and availability, so families across Greater London can compare verified profiles side by side rather than going through an agency. Whether you need weekly in-person sessions or flexible online lessons, you can message a Phonics tutor directly and arrange a first lesson on your own terms.
