Lessons focus on strengthening literacy skills such as reading, spelling, writing and comprehension. We enhance understanding and memory retention, ensuring information sticks. Alongside this, we teach practical study skills and revision strategies that help students learn more confidently and independently.

Tuition Designed for Dyslexic Learners
Dyslexia Sparks has a proven track record in championing inclusive education. Our qualified tutors tailor our dyslexia tuition to every learner, delivering multisensory, engaging lessons that support neurodiverse minds. Unlike the fast-paced environment of schools, students have the chance to revisit and secure areas they find challenging. No dyslexia diagnosis is needed – we’re here to help, and we get results.

Our Unique Approach
Students are given the time and space they need to process, reflect, and succeed. We not only understand how students learn, but also how they may feel. Many students arrive at Sparks with low self-esteem and a lack of confidence in their abilities. We improve literacy skills and give students practical strategies they can use – not just in school, but in exams, throughout everyday life, and in their future careers.
Our Lessons
How We Work
Lessons are delivered 1:1 or paired where 2 students are carefully matched. Sessions are available as 1 hour or 1.5 hour lessons. Paired tuition can be especially valuable, allowing students to support one another and recognise that they are not alone in their dyslexia journey, which can be incredibly empowering.
Adult Tuition
Whether you’re studying, preparing for exams, building your CV, or simply wanting to feel more confident in your abilities – our specialist tuition can help. Sessions are focused and personalised, usually delivered over short, impactful timeframes such as a few weeks. Real progress, real confidence – at your pace.
All our teaching staff are enhanced DBS checked and have undergone at least Level 2 safeguarding training.

”Teaching is not just about passing tests - it’s about empowering our students to achieve their goals, whatever they may be. That means teaching in ways that work for them, at a pace that suits them, with strategies that support where they are right now.
