Advanced Higher Dyslexia support tutors

5 UK tutors who teach Dyslexia support at Advanced Higher. £48–£150/hr · median £75

Dyslexia support is specialist tuition for students with diagnosed or suspected dyslexia, dyspraxia, ADHD or other specific learning differences, working alongside or in addition to mainstream subject teaching. Approaches draw on structured literacy methods (Orton-Gillingham, multi-sensory phonics, Hickey, Bangor) plus working-memory and executive-function strategies. Tutoring helps most with reading fluency, spelling, written expression, and the metacognitive scaffolding that lets students manage their own learning. Look for tutors with formal SpLD qualifications (Level 5 or Level 7 SpLD diplomas, AMBDA, APC, or PATOSS membership).

Advanced Higher is the Scottish qualification taken in S6 (age 17-18), administered by the SQA (now Qualifications Scotland), broadly comparable to A-level in difficulty and used by Scottish students for entry to top UK universities (including English Russell Group institutions where an Advanced Higher pass is required for some courses). Most students take 1-3 Advanced Highers alongside extra Highers or other study. Coursework (particularly the extended project/dissertation in many subjects) carries substantial weight. Tutoring helps most with the project component and with the step up from Higher to Advanced Higher in mathematical and analytical subjects. Look for tutors with explicit SQA Advanced Higher experience.
