Dyslexia is a specific learning disorder that primarily affects reading and writing skills. It’s not linked to intelligence — in fact, many children with reading difficulty are bright and creative — but they process information differently.

Dyslexia affects how the brain processes written language, making reading and spelling more difficult than expected — even for bright, capable children.

Many children with dyslexia work incredibly hard, but still feel like they’re falling behind—through no fault of their own. Because reading is such a big part of learning, dyslexia can chip away at their confidence and make school feel discouraging.

Instructions might be missed, reading tasks can take longer, and over time, important building blocks in literacy may be left behind. These small struggles can quietly lead to larger gaps, making it harder for children to keep up.

How Kinetic Education Tutoring Supports Children with Dyslexia

At Kinetic Education, we make reading and writing feel less overwhelming—and more achievable. With short, supportive lessons and real tutor guidance, we help turn everyday challenges into small wins that build lasting confidence.

Through our online Maths Wiz and English Wiz platforms, combined with support form our specialist Dyslexia Tutors combined with support form our specialist Dyslexia Tutors, your child follows a personalised plan tailored to their needs. With structured, multisensory support and clear reading strategies, they can build literacy skills in a way that suits them best—and feel proud of their progress.

Difficulty with reading and spelling

What this can look like:

Your child may take longer to sound out words, confuse similar letters, or have trouble recognising words they've seen before. Spelling can feel inconsistent or confusing, even with practice.

Dyslexia Tutoring Support with Reading & Spelling

How we help:

We use multisensory learning techniques—lessons include visuals, audio, animations, and interactive tasks. This approach helps engage more of the brain by combining visual, auditory, and physical input at once (known as MSL – Multisensory Structured Learning). Over time, this supports stronger neural connections and better retention of reading and spelling skills. Our lessons are also repeated at carefully spaced intervals—allowing concepts to be revisited and moved into long-term memory without pressure.

Avoiding reading or written tasks

What this can look like:

Your child may shy away from books, skip reading aloud, or avoid writing tasks altogether. These experiences can feel frustrating and discouraging.

Dyslexia Tutoring Support with Reading and Written Tasks

How we help:

Lessons are short and achievable, designed to reduce overwhelm and support early wins. Step-by-step guidance and tutor support help your child feel safe to try—and proud when they succeed.

Slow progress with phonics or decoding

What this can look like:

Your child might struggle to match letters with sounds, break words into parts, or decode unfamiliar words. Progress may feel slower than expected.

Dyslexia Tutoring Support with Personalised Lessons

How we help:

We focus on building phonics skills gradually and consistently. Lessons are personalised based on what your child needs to strengthen—no rushing, no skipping over the foundations.

Low confidence with reading and writing

What this can look like:

Your child may believe they’re “bad at reading” or feel embarrassed when asked to write. They might avoid challenges because they fear getting it wrong.

Kinetic Education’s Dyslexia Tutoring Program Rewards Progress

How we help:

We help rebuild confidence through real rewards and visible progress. Lessons are designed to show growth, not perfection—and every win is celebrated.

Struggles with remembering what they’ve read

What this can look like:

Even after reading something aloud, your child might forget what it was about. They may struggle to retell stories or answer questions about what they’ve just read.

Dyslexia Tutoring Program with Visual Aids

How we help:

We support comprehension using short texts, built-in audio, and simple questions. Visuals and repetition help your child understand and retain what they’ve learned.

Previous support didn’t suit their needs

What this can look like:

Previous support may not have moved at the right pace, or didn’t quite match how your child learns—leaving them feeling frustrated or disheartened.

How we help:

We personalise every child’s learning plan based on their assessment. With one-on-one tutor support, flexible timing, and lessons that use multiple senses, we help your child access reading and writing in a way that works for them.

Why Families Trust Kinetic to Support Their Child with Dyslexia

  • Learning that’s personalised to your child’s needs
    Every child starts with an assessment so we can understand their current understanding. From there, we create a tailored learning plan that builds skills step by step—filling in gaps and supporting steady progress.
  • Short, supportive lessons that feel achievable
    Our 20-minute sessions make it easier for your child to stay focused and complete tasks confidently—without becoming overwhelmed.
  • Multisensory tools that support how they learn best
    Our lessons use multisensory structured instruction—combining sight, sound, movement, and memory cues. This helps children with dyslexia connect sounds to letters, decode with more confidence, and retain concepts more effectively. Your tutor will guide this process and help discover strategies that work best for your child.
  • Flexible learning, with less pressure
    Your child can learn when it suits them—before school, after dinner, weekends, or in short bursts throughout the week. There’s no pressure to keep up with a fixed schedule.
  • Tutor support that’s steady and responsive
    Whether it’s a confidence boost or a second explanation, tutor support is easy to access and built around your child’s learning style.
  • A focus on confidence, not perfection
    We celebrate progress, not just correct answers. With every completed lesson, your child earns points and recognition—building their confidence, one small win at a time.
  • Weekly reports that keep you informed
    Each week, you'll receive a simple progress summary showing what your child has completed, what’s next, and how they’re tracking. It keeps you involved—without needing to monitor every step.

Common Questions About Our Dyslexia Learning Support

My child struggles with reading—how will tutoring help?

We take a personalised, step-by-step approach that focuses on what your child needs most. Each child starts with a short assessment so we can identify gaps and build the right plan for them. Lessons use explicit instruction, step-by-step guidance, and multisensory activities to support the way your child processes written language.

Won’t they just get frustrated learning on a screen?

 Actually, many children with dyslexia find our style of learning less stressful than traditional methods. Lessons are short—around 20 minutes—and include animations, audio prompts, and scaffolded guidance. This makes it easier to stay engaged without becoming overwhelmed.

How are the lessons different from what they get at school?

We don’t expect your child to learn through long blocks of text. Our lessons are interactive and multisensory—using images, audio, repetition, and movement to help concepts “click.” We also break things into manageable steps so nothing feels too hard to start or too much to finish.

Will this work if my child avoids reading or thinks they’re “just not good at it”?

Yes. We hear this from many families, and it’s often about confidence, not capability. Our approach focuses on small, achievable steps with visible progress and real rewards. This helps your child rebuild trust in their abilities.

What if we’ve already tried other literacy support?

 Every child learns differently, and not all approaches work for everyone. We personalise learning based on your child’s needs, learning style, and pace. With flexible sessions and interactive content, many families see progress here—even if other support didn’t work out.

What if my child makes a lot of mistakes or feels embarrassed when they get things wrong?

That’s exactly why our approach is different. Learning with us is non-judgemental and low-pressure. We understand that mistakes are part of the process—especially for children with dyslexia. Lessons are structured to support progress, not perfection.

Will I get updates on how they’re doing?

 Yes. You’ll receive a clear, weekly report showing what your child completed, how they’re progressing, and what’s next. You’ll always feel connected to what they’re working on.


So many happy families
