Open Book Tutoring provides personalised literacy intervention for students who need support beyond the classroom. Our approach is grounded in the Science of Reading, using structured, evidence-based instruction to build strong foundations in reading, spelling, and writing. We tailor every lesson to the individual needs of each learner, supporting students with learning difficulties as well as those needing extra consolidation. Our goal is to develop confident, capable learners with the functional literacy skills they need to succeed in school and everyday life.
Use the online option or 'online' location to search for online teachers
Have you considered an online specialist? Students can access the expertise of a Specialist Teacher in a private, one-to-one lesson with no required travel, comfort of own home and less distractions. Teachers who deliver lessons in this way typically specialise in this model of instruction and do so in multisensory and dynamic ways that achieve comparable results in literacy and mathematics. Many students with ADHD and attention challenges find online learning easier and more successful. Have a chat with the online teachers and see if it will work for you.
