British Dyslexia Association Tutor List | Qualification-led dyslexia tutor directory. | Tutor-by-tutor; search by location, age range and service type. | Arranged with the individual tutor rather than shown as a marketplace-wide price. | BDA says listed tutors hold BDA Professional Membership and BDA accreditation; it also advises parents to check current DBS or AccessNI status and insurance. | Discuss availability, observation, reporting, costs and cancellation terms with the individual tutor. | Parents who want the strongest dyslexia-specific professional signal before shortlisting. | Less convenient for families seeking instant booking, public star ratings or a simple platform-wide price comparison. |
Dyslexia Tutors Online | Specialist online dyslexia and dyscalculia tutoring service. | Remote 55-minute sessions via Zoom, Teams, Google Meet or similar; booked in blocks of four with a short progress report after each block. | Tutor fees are shown on profiles; the site states no sign-up fees and VAT included. | Specialist focus. The tutor recruitment form asks applicants for a CV, DBS certificate and qualification certificates. | 15-minute consultation before choosing a tutor. One session per four-session block may be rescheduled with at least 24 hours’ notice; missed or later-notice sessions are not refunded or rescheduled. | Families who want structured online dyslexia or dyscalculia support. | Less suited to families seeking occasional lessons without block booking. |
SENsational Tutors | Specialist SEND matching service, not dyslexia-only. | Online tuition, private home tuition, EOTAS packages and mentoring or wellbeing support. | Its costs page says private-family tutors generally set rates from £90 to £120 per hour; local-authority or school EOTAS work is usually quoted at £80 to £90 per hour. | The costs page describes tutors on its interactive platform as qualified self-employed teachers with extensive experience. | Free 20-minute consultation; parents can interview tutors for free. The site says there is no minimum commitment and that many tutors ask for 24 or 48 hours’ notice to cancel or pause sessions. | Children whose dyslexia sits alongside broader SEND, anxiety, school attendance concerns or EOTAS needs. | Higher typical private-family cost than many marketplace options. |
Tutorwiz | Programme-led online dyslexia tutoring and learning platform. | Online tutoring combined with games, activities, quizzes, classes and written tasks. | A clear hour-by-hour public price model was not captured on the reviewed dyslexia page. | The page says tutors are qualified and experienced with dyslexia and other special educational needs; detailed public safeguarding wording should be checked with the provider. | The page offers a free assessment. Cancellation or refund details were not clear from the reviewed landing page. | Families who want a programme and resources as well as tutor support. | Ask directly about price, tutor qualifications, safeguarding checks and cancellation terms. |
Tutorful | Broad online tutoring marketplace with a dyslexia landing page. | Online tutoring; parents can filter tutors by age group and price. | Tutors set their own hourly rates; the reviewed page showed dyslexia tutor listings from about £24 per hour upward. | Tutorful says many dyslexia tutors are trained specialists, experienced SEN teachers or literacy intervention experts, and says tutors are DBS-checked; suitability still varies tutor by tutor. | Trial or cancellation details should be checked on the chosen tutor and booking pages. | Parents who want a large online marketplace with dyslexia-relevant filters and a wide price spread. | Do not assume every tutor in the category has the same dyslexia training or lesson approach. |
Tutor House | Broad tutoring marketplace. | The dyslexia page presents tutoring from home and a tutor search with individual profiles. | The reviewed page showed a price filter from roughly £20 to £90 per hour. | The page says parents can find experienced, DBS-checked dyslexia tutors, but visible profile data also showed variation, including a no-DBS marker on some profiles. | Trial, guarantee and cancellation details should be checked on the individual tutor and booking pages. | Families prioritising marketplace choice and lower entry-price options. | Profile-level checking is essential: DBS status, dyslexia training and experience vary. |
Latimer Tuition | Transparent tutor browsing plus optional human matching. | Online tutoring profiles and a matching form for a human-filtered shortlist. | On 3 July 2026, the Find a Tutor page showed a £15 to £75 hourly price filter. The matching page describes tuition as pay-as-you-go with no contract or minimum commitment once a lesson is booked. | Parents can filter by qualified-teacher status and DBS checks. The matching page says Latimer can email up to three DBS-checked tutors matching subject, level, schedule and budget. | The matching request takes about three minutes and has no obligation to book; Latimer’s home page describes cancellation up to 24 hours before lessons. | Parents who want flexible online choice or a human shortlist without a package commitment. | Current Latimer pages do not establish that Latimer is a dyslexia-specialist assessment or therapy service; ask shortlisted tutors about dyslexia qualifications and methods. |
