Every child learns differently, and for children with special educational needs, the right tutoring approach makes all the difference. Our SEN tutors in Rochester have experience working with dyslexia, dyscalculia, ADHD, autism spectrum conditions, and other learning differences. They adapt their teaching style, pace, and materials to match how your child actually learns — not how a curriculum assumes they should.
Working With EHCPs and School Support
If your child in Rochester has an Education, Health and Care Plan (EHCP), our tutors can work towards the outcomes specified in it. For children on SEN Support without a plan, we can still target the specific areas flagged by the school's SENCO. Our tutors provide regular progress updates that you can share with school or other professionals involved in your child's education.
Autism and Learning
Autistic students in Rochester may need clear, predictable session structures with explicit instructions and visual supports. Our tutors understand the importance of routine and advance notice of changes. They also recognise that many autistic learners have significant strengths — deep focus, strong factual recall, pattern recognition — that can be channelled effectively with the right support.
Dyscalculia and Maths Difficulties
Children with dyscalculia in Rochester often struggle with number sense, place value, and the mental manipulation of numbers. Our tutors use concrete materials — number lines, Cuisenaire rods, base-ten blocks — to build understanding from the ground up. The goal is genuine comprehension, not memorised procedures that fall apart under pressure.
Our SEN tutors in Rochester are safeguarding-trained, experienced, and patient. We match your child with a tutor whose skills fit their specific needs — not just someone who's willing to work with SEN students, but someone with genuine expertise. Get in touch to tell us about your child and we'll recommend the right tutor.
