Phonics and Literacy Tuition for Children

Lessons based on the UK National Curriculum and Early Years (EYFS) Curriculum

Strong reading and writing skills are the foundation of confident learning.

My Phonics and Literacy Tuition helps children master the building blocks of English — from recognising sounds to expressing their own ideas in writing.

These lessons are ideal for Early Years, Key Stage 1, Key Stage 2, or children who need extra reading and writing support in later years. They all also suitable for non – native English speakers who want to learn to read and write in English, and these lessons can easily be combined with my other English language lessons.


Phonics and Early Reading Lessons

Phonics is the method used in UK schools (alongside many other countries) to teach children how to read, by recognising and blending sounds.

In my online Phonics lessons, I use fun and engaging activities to help your child:

  • Identify and blend letter sounds (phonemes)
  • Read simple words and sentences confidently
  • Recognise tricky and high-frequency words
  • Develop comprehension and fluency
  • Enjoy reading stories and discussing books

I follow the UK Phonics teaching structure, but with a slightly fun and creative twist! All my lessons are adapted to suit each learner’s pace and personality, and regularly include learning games, silliness, and funny reading and writing opportunities.

These lessons are perfect for:

  • Early learners beginning their reading journey
  • Children who need Phonics reinforcement or extra confidence
  • Bilingual children learning to read in English

Writing & Literacy Development

Once reading skills are established, we build on them through writing and literacy lessons designed to make written English clear, creative, and enjoyable.

We focus on:

  • Sentence structure and punctuation
  • Spelling and grammar
  • Expanding vocabulary through reading and discussion
  • Story writing and descriptive language
  • Confidence in written expression

Lessons combine structure with creativity — using short texts, writing prompts, and engaging topics that inspire your child to express themselves in English.
