Company Details

SENsational Tutors was an excellent resource for finding a qualified tutor with experience and training in sensory integration and development. They provided multiple candidates for consideration as well as personalised advice on who might be the best fit for our son.

It's great to work with Joanna Gibbs at SENsational Tutors. I have complete confidence in her matching ability. She always has a perfect attitude, and she sourced 2 excellent tutors for our son. I am happy to recommend SENsational Tutors highly.

SENsational Tutors is a fantastic company and provides an impeccable matching service. Within seconds I felt that Joanna, the director, completely understood my personal situation. My child’s school had told me that my child was too challenging to work with, and therefore wasn’t progressing. I was determined for that not to be the case. I felt instantly reassured by Joanna. The tutor that I selected, with Joanna’s help, has changed our life for the better and we will never look back. Most importantly, my child who has autism, dyslexia and sensory needs, loves his sessions and believes in himself. He confidence in himself has been restored, and I honestly couldn’t be happier. The journey for families with children with SEN is really challenging, but there are some hidden gems like Joanna and SENsational Tutors, who really and truly care. If you would like you give your child the opportunity to shine, call Joanna and book one of the very highly experienced SENsational Tutors.

I am so impressed with SENsational Tutors. Joanna, the founder and director, is incredibly professional and friendly, and really understands the needs of children with SEN. She takes the time to listen to your individual needs. What a fantastic matching service. Tutors are fun, engaging and incredibly experienced. I can’t express how happy I am. I just wish that I had known about SENsational Tutors sooner!

Meeting Nathalie was the best thing that happened to me recently. She is very positive person and has lots of energy. She worked with my daughter for 6 weeks and I have seen huge progress since. Nathalie has given to me lots of tips and ideas how to help my daughter. She helped me to communicate with my daughter school too.I have texted her after and she still sent to me lots of information. Thank you so much for supporting people who really need.

As a former Headteacher with 25 years’ SEN experience, it was important for me to find a highly organised and professional company with quality, highly experienced and qualified SEN tutors who understand children with a variety of needs including autism, ADHD, dyslexia, dyspraxia, PDA, mental health needs, behaviour needs, dyscalculia, communication and speech delay and other SEN. SENsational Tutors makes a great effort to liaise with parents to really understand what they are looking for so they can match tutors carefully. The matching isn’t just academic either but takes into account personality, likes/dislikes and temperament. In addition, children love working with the experienced SEN tutors who are academic, creative, flexible and caring. For this reason, I’m convinced it’s the best SEN tutor matching service in existence.

My personal experience with SENsational Tutors has been absolutely outstanding. Joanna, the founder and director, has established an absolutely phenomenal company to support children with special and additional needs. She has a very good understanding of all of the tutors’ skills and families needs, resulting in well matched tutors and families. She is very friendly and efficient when it comes to communicating, and will go above and beyond to find the best match for your individual child. Highly recommended. Contact Joanna at SENsational Tutors if you have a child with SEN and would like them to enjoy learning and boost their confidence/self-esteem.

SENsational Tutors are a fantastic organisation. Nathalie supported one of my client's daughters and she has made significant progress over the past 2 months. My client says that this has made all the difference in the world and feels much more confident to manage her daughters needs going forward. Can't recommend them highly enough!

Jo, my chosen tutor at SENsational Tutors has made such a difference to my daughter’s life and overall wellbeing. I was really worried that she was regressing due to lockdown. Not only have the tutoring sessions ensured that she has progressed, they have hade a massive difference with her confidence and self-esteem. My daughter thoroughly enjoys the sessions, and even looks forward to them, something that I would never have never had believed possible. Jo, you are wonderful, thank you!!!

Ian from SENsational Tutors has been amazing with improving my child’s maths skills and increasing their confidence while approaching new topics and question styles. He has a very patient and positive attitude and has a gift for explaining things in an easily understandable way. SENsational Tutors has been super efficient in arranging dates times and payment schedules, I wholeheartedly recommend them.

Vojtech has been extremely excellent tutor, regardless of Denzel's challenging behaviour. In school Denzel has two to one support, sometimes even requires more help due to his extremely aggression He has used different skills and knowledge to make him calmed when he is here. We have seen a lot of changes in Denzel, his attention span has increased and improved in his eye contact . Speach slowly but has been improving as well. Thank you

Lauren has been teaching our son for 3 months now. I would highly recommend Lauren to anyone looking for a tutor. She is professional, friendly and reliable. Our son has a variety of learning and behavioral challenges and Lauren have proved to be calm influence when teaching him. She teaches in a clear and concise way, using praise to motivate him. Lauren uses different teaching methods to engage and stimulate our son, often linking learning to his personal interests. She is encouraging and patient and not ‘put off‘ when he displays undesirable behaviors...which is very reassuring from a parents perspective. Her experience of working in a variety of educational settings and with a variety of different ability children makes her an excellent choice. We have been impressed by her teaching so far and look forward to her lessons each week.

SENsational Tutors stands out because of the dedication and commitment of Joanna, the director, who is so supportive and passionate about matching excellent SEN tutors with students. Joanna is refreshingly honest, warm and has a high level of integrity. Her openness and communication is second to none and I highly recommend the company to parents who want a dedicated and excellent SEN tutor.

Sensational tutors is a very professional company with high quality tutors . We found our teacher Becky through their recommendation and are so pleased with did . She has been just fantastic with our daughter - so caring , patient and enthusiastic . It has been wonderful to see our daughter engaging and enjoying her lessons with Becky and she has developed a real enthusiasm for reading . Becky is a delightful teacher with so much experience and a passion for helping children. We are very grateful for all her help and would 100% recommend her and sensational tutors to help your child .

I had previously struggled to find a specialist dyslexia tutor with the expertise to meet both the academic and emotional needs of my brother. The support, care and attention from SENsational has been nothing short of delightful. Joanna (founder and director) is fastidious, and her ability to match learners and tutors is just ‘spot on’. I was amazed at the wide selection of highly experienced specialist SEN tutors available to meet any need, including dyslexia, autism, sensory needs, mental health needs, communication and behaviour needs, anxiety and more. I urge any parents/carers of children and adults who require a specialist SEN tutor to look no further.

Brilliant, fun and hardworking tutors for children with SEN, including autism, dyslexia, Down's Syndrome, anxiety etc. Definitely recommend! There is a broad range of tutors to match with parents and children and each tutor has a wealth of experience, a fab service!

My daughters really enjoy the tutoring sessions with Becky and Sheena. Yael whenever she sees Sheena she is so happy. She really enjoy having her around and she has fun with her and she loves her. Since Becky started helping Bethel she has started enjoying more writing and becoming more organised. She is helping my daughter a lot for example teaching her how to write poem which helps my daughter to enjoy writing and learning more. Also would like to express gratitude for the agency as they manage to find us a really great tutor for my children. It's very effective. Winta

Joanna Gibbs at SENsational Tutors is a complete professional. She quickly but carefully matched my autistic son with 2 highly experienced, resourceful and sympathetic special needs tutors. She is extremely responsive and helpful, and accordingly I highly recommend SENsational Tutors.

Jo, at this company is passionate about her work and getting the right fit between tutor and tutee. This leads to her being organised, efficient, well-informed, and delivers what is required. A breath of fresh air! She has the drive and experience to understand a client’s requirements. She is thorough in her analysis of prospective tutors qualifications, experience and background. Jo is also friendly, and has a great sense of humour. I would highly recommend her company. When the LA claimed not to be able to find suitable male tutors, Jo found more than I needed within one week, so I ended up having a choice! One tutor in particular, Matthew, definitely leads by example. He has an especially non-confrontational approach, calm, polite, and very respectful of everyone’s needs around him. A true gentleman in every respect. His kind, considerate, informed and sensitive approach has enabled my son after 2.5 years of non-engagement arising from his needs not met at school, to begin to re-engage in school work and adopt a calmer approach. Matthew is a real asset to SENsational Tutors! Thank you Jo & Matthew 👌

Firstly Joanna was so helpful in allocating the most suitable tutor for my son's particular needs. My son was tutored by Andrew for 1 year. Andrew and my son engaged really well and there were a variety of tools used throughout the sessions so it never felt mundane. They shared stories and this was one of the areas that my son lacked confidence in sharing were his emotions and these sessions helped him express his feelings more. The feedback received from Andrew with myself after every session gave me a clear indication of the progress he was making. Great place to start if you want your child to be exposed to a variety of resources
