What does a primary English tutor cover?

A primary English tutor typically covers phonics and decoding (Years 1–2), reading comprehension and inference (Years 2–6), spelling rules and patterns, grammar and punctuation (for KS2 GPS assessments), and creative writing skills. For Year 6 students, KS2 SATs preparation, particularly the Reading paper and GPS (Grammar, Punctuation and Spelling) test, is a common focus.

About Primary English tuition

Primary English tutoring supports children from Reception through to Year 6 with phonics, reading, spelling, grammar, punctuation and creative writing. It is particularly sought after for KS2 SATs preparation (Year 6 GPS and Reading papers) and for children who need a confidence boost in literacy ahead of secondary school.

Primary English covers a wide range of skills simultaneously, children who struggle with spelling or punctuation often lose confidence in writing more broadly, which a one-to-one tutor can address without the pressure of a classroom environment.
