What we do differently

A specialist tutor is only the beginning. Behind every session is a system built to find what is missing, teach it properly, and keep you informed at every step.

Proven tutor credibility

Every tutor achieved grade 8 to 9 at GCSE and top grades at A-Level in the subject they teach. All are Russell Group educated and DBS checked before they ever meet your child.

Our own in-house assessment

We built our own diagnostic, refined across thousands of sessions. It maps your child's knowledge against their exact exam board, so teaching is targeted from the very first lesson.

Genuine SEND qualifications

Every tutor is trained in SEND pedagogy and matched on your child's learning profile. Dyslexia-friendly, ADHD-aware teaching is built in, never bolted on.

Real tutoring experience

Our tutors are experienced specialists, not students practising on your child. They know exactly where learners struggle in their subject, and how to move them past it.

Regular parent updates

You are never left in the dark. After sessions you hear what was covered, what improved, and what comes next, all in plain language.

Clear feedback reports

Written progress reports measure your child against the baseline we set on day one, so you see real, trackable movement, not vague reassurance.

SEND and Learning Differences

Built for how your child actually learns, not how they should learn

Our platform was written specifically for children with learning differences, dyslexia-friendly formatting, ADHD-optimised content, and text-to-speech built in. Every tutor is trained in SEND pedagogy and matched on your child's specific learning profile.

Our Process

Assess first. Teach with precision. Guarantee the outcome.

Generic tutoring fails because it guesses what is wrong. We find out. The first four weeks are a structured diagnostic phase, giving us everything we need to teach with purpose from Week 5 onwards.

1

Free Assessment Call

A 20-minute call to understand your child's current level, knowledge gaps, learning style, and any SEND needs. We explain our diagnostic approach and walk through what to expect. No obligation.

2

Weeks 1 to 2: Diagnostic Assessment

Our tutors assess your child's knowledge across their enrolled subjects, identifying exactly where gaps exist, how they process information, and what barriers are affecting their confidence.

3

Weeks 3 to 4: Strategic Roadmap

By Week 4, your child has a complete learning profile and a strategic roadmap. We know precisely what needs to happen and in what order. This is what separates us from tutors who simply follow a textbook.

4

Week 5 Onwards: Targeted Teaching

Every session is driven by diagnostic findings. Tutors focus on the gaps that matter most, track progress weekly, and adjust the approach as your child improves. No guessing. No wasted time.

Parent & Student Reviews

Real grade improvements, from real families

Every testimonial below is from a real family. No invented quotes, no vague praise. These are the specific outcomes students achieved, and what their parents said about the experience.

★★★★★
"Our son has ADHD and has always struggled with traditional tutoring. The interest matching made such a difference, his tutor shares his love of football and uses it to explain concepts in a way that actually clicks. He went from a 4 to a 7 in Chemistry."
Parent, Birmingham
Chemistry: 4 → 7
★★★★★
"I was anxious about one to one sessions, but my tutor was calm and patient from the start. We would talk about gaming at the beginning of each lesson, which helped me settle. I achieved a Grade 8 in Maths, something I genuinely didn't think I was capable of."
Student, London
Mathematics: 5 → 8
★★★★★
"Our daughter is on the autism spectrum and finds transitions between activities very difficult. Having the same tutor each week, with a consistent and predictable structure, has made a real difference to both her confidence and her academic results."
Parent, Manchester
English: C → A
★★★★★
"The level of care here is unlike anything I have encountered from a tutoring service before. They focus on the whole child, not just the result. Our son passed his 11+ and is now at his first choice grammar school."
Parent, Surrey
11+ Entrance: Passed ✓
★★★★★
"We went from barely coping to genuinely excited about school. The tutor they found for our son with dyslexia was extraordinary, patient, creative, and brilliant at making him feel capable. His reading age jumped two years in six months."
Parent, Bristol
Reading Age: +2 years
★★★★★
"My daughter was predicted a C in A-Level Biology. After six months with AdaptTutoring, she achieved an A grade and secured a place at her first choice university to study medicine. The difference has been remarkable."
Parent, Leeds
Biology A-Level: C → A

Common Questions

Frequently asked questions

We guarantee your child will improve by 2 or more grades across their enrolled subjects, measured against their baseline GCSE or mock exam performance at the start of the programme. If that improvement is not achieved by the time of their final assessments, we continue tutoring at no additional cost until it is. This is a real commitment, not marketing language.
Because we diagnose before we teach. Most tutors start sessions immediately, without understanding what is actually wrong. We spend the first four weeks assessing exactly where your child's gaps are, how they process information, and what is affecting their confidence. Combined with specialist tutors who achieved top grades in their subjects and consistent weekly progress tracking, we know what needs to happen and we make it happen.
We offer multiple package intensities depending on how many subjects your child needs support in and how much time they have before exams. The right option depends on their specific situation. We discuss this during your free assessment call and recommend what we genuinely believe is most appropriate. There are no hidden costs and no pressure to choose a more expensive option than you need.
Our tutors are trained in SEND pedagogy and have experience supporting children with ADHD, dyslexia, autism spectrum conditions, dyspraxia, dyscalculia, speech and language differences, anxiety, and students with EHCPs. We match your child with a tutor whose specific experience aligns with their profile. SEND support is built into every package, not treated as an add-on.
Getting the match right matters to us. If at any point you feel the tutor is not working out, academically or personally, let us know and we will arrange an alternative at no extra cost. There is no awkwardness and no delay.
Yes. There are no long-term contracts and no lock-in. Give us four weeks' notice in writing and no further charges will apply. We operate on month-to-month billing because we are confident the results will speak for themselves. We do not need a contract to keep you.
You receive a written progress update every week. We also carry out a monthly strategy review to check whether the current approach is on track and adjust where needed. You will never be left wondering. Progress data from Adapt Learning makes improvement visible and measurable throughout the programme.
Adapt Learning is our dedicated learning platform, containing 3,900+ exam specification questions across GCSE, 11+, 13+, KS2 and KS3. It is dyslexia-friendly, ADHD-optimised, and includes text-to-speech. Tutors use it to set work, track progress between sessions, and inform their planning. Access is included with every package at no additional cost.
We guarantee a tutor match within 48 hours of your assessment call. In most cases this happens within 24 hours. Every match considers subject expertise, SEND experience where relevant, and shared interests with your child. We do not assign whoever is available.

      Our Approach

      A tutor who truly understands how your child thinks and learns

      Most services match on subject alone. We match on learning profile, SEND experience, teaching approach, and shared interests. For children with SEND, the right tutor is not just someone who knows the subject. It is someone your child will actually open up to.

      Register Interest
      • Learning profile matching. Tutors are selected on the basis of your child's specific SEND needs, their subject requirements, and their learning style, not on availability alone.
      • Interest-led sessions. We identify shared passions between your child and their tutor. When a session begins with something your child loves, engagement follows naturally.
      • No pressure pacing. Sessions are structured around your child's rhythm and capacity. We never push at the expense of confidence.
      • EHCP coordination. Where your child has an Education, Health and Care Plan, we liaise directly with their school and SEND caseworker to ensure full alignment.
      • Regular structured updates. Written session notes after every lesson and monthly progress reviews ensure you are always fully informed.
      Interest Matching

      How we find a tutor your child will actually connect with

      Tell us what your child loves, and we will find a tutor who shares those passions. For children with SEND, this is not a nice-to-have. It is the difference between a session that works and one that does not.
