SEN & Specialist Support

Personalised Support for Every Learner

Everyone learns differently. At More Than Words Tuition, we provide specialist educational support for children and young people aged 5–16 with a wide range of additional learning needs. Our personalised, child-centred approach recognises each learner's strengths while identifying and removing barriers to learning.

We understand that some learners need more than academic support alone. Difficulties with confidence, anxiety, attention, organisation or school attendance can all affect learning. By working closely with families, schools and other professionals, we create individual programmes that help learners build confidence, develop independence and achieve meaningful progress.

We regularly support learners who:

  • Have dyslexia or literacy difficulties.

  • Have Special Educational Needs (SEN).

  • Experience anxiety or low confidence.

  • Have difficulties attending school.

  • Need additional support with organisation, memory or study skills.

  • Have gaps in learning or require personalised intervention.

  • Benefit from structured, one-to-one or small group teaching.

Our specialist support may include:

  • Dyslexia-friendly teaching approaches – using structured, multi-sensory and evidence-informed strategies.

  • Structured literacy programmes – developing reading, spelling and writing skills systematically.

  • Reading, writing and mathematics intervention – closing learning gaps while building confidence.

  • Memory and organisation strategies – supporting working memory, planning and independent learning.

  • Study skills and exam preparation – developing organisation, revision techniques and self-management.

  • Confidence and emotional resilience – helping learners develop self-belief, perseverance and a positive attitude towards learning.

Working Together

We believe the best outcomes are achieved through partnership. We work collaboratively with parents, schools, SENCOs and other professionals to ensure support is consistent, personalised and focused on each learner's long-term success.

Where appropriate, educational support can also be complemented by our confidence-building fitness sessions, providing opportunities for learners to develop resilience, motivation and self-esteem through movement and physical activity.
