SEN Tutoring & Support
Exceptional SEN support from educators who truly understand your child
Supporting a child with additional needs can feel emotionally and logistically overwhelming — especially when confidence dips, school communication is unclear, or your child struggles to feel understood in their learning environment. Many parents want the very best for their child but often feel unsure of how to help them thrive.
At LessonWise, we bring together hand-selected, high-calibre educators experienced in SEN and neurodiversity, a new industry standard of safeguarding, and an AI-augmented learning space, to create a learning environment that feels safe, encouraging and tailored to your child. Supported by a white-glove service that manages the details, we provide structure, expertise, continuity and genuine care — creating a kind, encouraging learning environment to strengthen confidence and celebrate small wins.
Specialist, patient, steady
Children with additional needs thrive when learning is predictable, relational, and shaped around their strengths. Our specialist educators are experienced in neurodiversity and SEN with expertise in ADHD, Autism/ASC, Dyslexia, Dyspraxia and more.
They focus on creating the conditions where your child feels safe, understood, and able to progress at their own pace - providing routine and consistency, building trust and rapport, using clear, simple structures that reduce overwhelm, and adapting pacing to processing needs.

LessonWise Family Plans
A structured, flexible model designed for SEN continuity
At LessonWise, your child’s support is delivered through a Family Plan — a structured, flexible model that ensures continuity, progress, and clear alignment with goals throughout the year. Family Plans provide flexible lesson credits you can use across subjects and siblings, with a cadence shaped around your ambitions and your family’s rhythm. They offer the consistency, expertise and visibility that lead to meaningful progress — without parents having to coordinate everything themselves.
How it works in 3 simple steps
Book a free taster session
Start with a personalised taster session, scheduled within 48 hours of speaking with us. This first lesson helps ensure the right tutor-student fit, understand your child’s learning preferences, and set clear goals.
Confirm your plan
After the trial, you’ll have a short follow-up call with one of our educational consultants. Together, we’ll agree the right number of lessons per week and the time frame that works best. For real, lasting progress we recommend consistency – ideally over at least half a term, and often for the school year.
What families experience with LessonWise
Parents and students consistently highlight the impact of expert and consistent 1:1 teaching, restored confidence, and clear academic progress — all supported by a trusted, professional educator.
