Most students with dyslexia can succeed in school, but in many cases, tutoring may be necessary to provide the students with additional support and repetition to get them to learn new words and even how to read. See what parents have to say about our tutors here.

Frequently Asked Questions:
When is the best time to start tutoring?
There is no better time than now! Tutoring isn’t just for those that are struggling – it also provides advanced students an opportunity to feel challenged and refine their skills. Having someone partner with you to bring out the best in your child is completely invaluable – and we recommend it at every age and level.
Does my child need a tutor?
Tutoring is for more than just those who struggle. In fact, you will usually find the students at the top of the class are there BECAUSE they have a tutor. Your tutor will become a partner in your child’s education journey, bridging the gap between home and the classroom. We believe every single student has something to gain from the support of an Alchemy tutor – and we know you will see this too.
Are there contracts or do I pay in advance?
No – there are no contracts and we are entirely pay as you go. We use an automated payment system that simply charges your debit or credit card 24 hours after each lesson occurs.
Will my tutor provide content and resources?
Yes – your tutor will have full access to our resource centre which contains thousands of worksheets, practice tests and text books. They will tailor every lesson around your child’s needs and design a unique program for them. To avoid waste we encourage our tutors to use digital worksheets so may bring a tablet or laptop – if you’d prefer to have them printed your tutor can send them to you ahead of a lesson for you to print at home.
How long does each lesson go for?
We leave this up to you to discuss with your tutor – but most of our students do between 1-2 hours per week. Our data shows that students see the most progress when they do a 1.5 hour lesson each week. There is no need to agree to a fixed session length – your tutor simply logs the length of session after each lesson occurs (with your prior agreement of course!).
Will my child have an assessment?
Yes. In the first lesson your tutor will deliver an assessment on your child, seeing where their strengths and weaknesses lie. After the session, your tutor will discuss their findings with you and send them through to you by email. From there, they will then develop a 10-week strategy to see your child reach their goals.
Why choose Alchemy over other options?
There are so many reasons, but the one thing we are most proud of is what makes us who we are. Alchemy is the medieval science of turning metals in to gold. It is the act of taking the ordinary and making it extraordinary – something our tutors do with our students every single day. The Alchemy difference is that we care about so much more than just marks. This resonates in everything we do – from the tutors we hire through to the lessons we plan. We want to see your child perform at their very best in all aspects of life – and not just in the classroom. It is this passion for so much more than just academic results that gives us the reputation we have – with thousands of verified 5-star reviews online.
How do you monitor progress?
We test students regularly to monitor improvements. The frequency of this will be up to your tutor, and you are welcome to discuss this with them in the first session to work out a testing cycle that is ideal for your child.
How often will lessons happen?
We recommend weekly sessions for every student. Consistency is so important in education, so irregular lessons may halt your child’s progress.
Is the first lesson a free trial lesson?
No – but it is covered by our first session 100% happiness guarantee. This means that if you are not 100% convinced the tutor we have lined up for you is the right tutor for your child, the session is on us and we can organise someone else that better suits your needs. If however you are happy to continue (and we are confident that you will be!) then we charge you for the first session when you submit payment details.
Online Dyslexia Tutoring
One of our core policies is providing students with a convenient and conducive learning environment. We believe in letting students learn at their pace and during their free time, and one way we do this is through online tutoring.
We have online tutors who are available to students at any time of the day or night. Online tutoring’s flexible study hours allow students to take lessons whenever they are free, including those with odd study hours.
Although the tutor is not physically present during the tutoring sessions, the tutoring platform has various features that keep the sessions as engaging and interactive as if the tutor were there. This ensures that online dyslexia tutoring students get the same quality of tutoring as other students.
Home Dyslexia Tutoring
Families and students can also choose to have the tutoring done at home. Unlike other tutoring services where you have to drive to the tutoring location, we will have the tutor come to you. This saves you the trouble of driving in the afterschool traffic and trying to find parking.
We work with dyslexia tutors who are local to various parts and can easily find your address. The tutors are born and raised in the same locality and are usually well-known members of the community, which makes it easier for families to let them into their homes.
Home tutoring has various benefits, the most important among them being improved accountability because the tutor is present. Also, families choose when they want to take lessons, allowing them to customise their tutoring schedule to their needs, which is crucial because it allows the students to keep doing the activities they like and take tutoring on the side.
Get Matched with the Best Dyslexia Tutors
Most parents and families with students with special learning needs like dyslexia understand the importance of tutoring but struggle to find the right tutor for their children. At Alchemy Tuition, you won’t need to worry about going through thousands of tutoring profiles and not finding a tutor for your child. All you have to do is follow three simple steps, and we will do everything else for you:
-
Fill out an online form
You will need to fill out an online form providing details about your student, such as their academic challenges, personality and other details. This is a short form that doesn’t take more than three minutes. Alternatively, you can request that one of our education experts give you a call.
-
We match you
After collecting enough details about the students, we will use this information to match them with the right tutor based on their personality, preferred learning methods, and challenges. We match you with tutors who have worked with students with similar challenges to ensure the best outcome and experience for the student. The tutors also have an infectious personality and usually create a strong bond with the student almost instantly.
-
We set up the first lesson
After matching you with the perfect dyslexia tutor, we will set up the first lesson so everyone can meet. This lesson is covered by our 100% satisfaction guarantee, so you only pay for it if you like it and want to continue with the tutoring.
If everything is to your liking, you can set up your payment information and set up a schedule for the next lessons with some assistance from the tutor where necessary.
Our payment terms are flexible. You pay as you go. We charge by the hour and only for the lessons you take. You are charged 24 hours after the lesson. There are no prepayments, cancellation fees, or long-term contracts. You can cancel at any time with no questions asked.

Before we can add the tutors we pick to our platform, they must undergo physical interviews, manual background checks, and double referencing. They must also hold certificates for working safely with children.
Trained and accredited
Dyslexia tutors who meet our strict requirements and successfully complete the shortlisting process are trained, accredited, and added to our platform. The tutors also get access to our vast resource centre to ensure they can deliver the best results forto the students they work with.
Result Oriented
One of the reasons Alchemy is excellent for dyslexia tutoring is because we focus on understanding the needs of every student we work with. We understand their tendencies and learning preferences and create learning plans that use their strengths to work on their weaknesses, making learning fun and interactive. Additionally, we pair the students with tutors with role model qualities who easily relate with the students and help them develop a love for learning.
