Why the struggle happens

If reading and spelling have always been hard, this explains why

It is almost never a lack of effort or intelligence. It is gaps in learning. The foundations are missed or taught too fast, so everything built on top of it wobbles. The good news is you can be rebuilt, one small step at a time.

1

It's not your fault

Learning needs to be multi sensory, fun, fast and easy, to make it stick, when your brain learns differently.

2

School can kill confidence

Falling behind quietly chips away at self belief until a child, teen or adult, decides reading is just not for them.

3

The fix is structure

Clear, sequential, multi sensory, fast and easy videos will get you reading in record time.

Why The Ten Minute Tutor is different

Finally, a reading and spelling program that is fast and easy

It is not just about reading and spelling, it is about building confidence and a sense that I can actually do this.

๐Ÿ‘ฉโ€๐Ÿซ

Guided by a real teacher

You are never left to figure it out alone. Every lesson is taught step by step, building understanding, connection and trust, one key skill in around ten minutes.

๐Ÿงญ

Clear and easy to follow

You are shown exactly what to do, then given the chance to practise straight away. No confusion, no overwhelm, just simple explanations that make it finally click.

๐ŸŒฑ

Confidence grows with skill

As understanding builds, so does belief. That moment of I can do this appears, often sooner than expected, reinforced by inspiring stories built into the program.

Have a look around

Everything you need to know, in one place

Take your time. Start wherever makes the most sense for you or your child.

This is what ten minutes a day actually looks like

Every lesson lives in the app, on any phone or tablet. Open it, tap the next tutorial, and a real teacher takes it from there.

Open it and your next lesson is already waiting

No timetable and nothing to plan. The home screen picks up exactly where you left off, so the only thing to decide is whether today is a good day to press play.

Tutorials, profile, progress and the member gift all sit one tap away.

Twelve levels, so you always know where you are

Levels A through L, each one holding 28 tutorials. Every lesson is followed by a short quiz, so progress is something you can see rather than guess at.

Start at Level A and move at whatever pace feels comfortable.

Ten minutes, one skill, a real teacher on screen

Each tutorial is a short video with a downloadable worksheet beside it. Watch it, practise the one skill it covers, mark it complete and stop.

Nothing is locked, so any lesson can be replayed as often as it helps.

Real books to read alongside the lessons, from Yellow Bird and Me to Alice in Wonderland, so new skills get used on actual stories rather than worksheets alone.

The teacher behind it
My unusual multi sensory teaching method taught my three dyslexic children to read and spell. It can do the same for you, or your child, in just ten minutes a day.

As a teacher and a parent, I watched my own children struggle inside a system that was not built for the way they learn. So I built something that was. Every lesson is designed to be calm, consistent and achievable, so learning becomes a positive experience rather than one filled with frustration or self doubt.

The unusual teaching method that taught my three struggling children to read and spell

In this short training, Liz explains why reading and spelling break down at school, why it is not your fault, and what actually works instead. For children and for adults.

You did not cause this. You are not broken. Your child is not broken. And struggling with reading does not indicate a low level of intelligence.
School methods do not fail slowly. They fail silently. By the time anyone realises, the damage is often already done.
You do not have to be perfect. You just have to be consistent. Ten minutes a day.

None of these are scripted. Parents and children recorded them at home on their own phones and laptops and sent them in. Tap any one to hear it from the start.

Today my daughter ran in the front door screaming in excitement, because for the first time ever she had received an A on her school report, and today she got three A's. Prior to starting The Ten Minute Tutor she was struggling at school, was very shy and never spoke out. Now she has been elected to junior school council after giving a speech to the entire school assembly.

I am an Educational Psychologist and have been recommending The Ten Minute Tutor to my clients. I have received very positive feedback and continue to recommend the program to improve their reading and spelling and, very importantly, their self confidence. Each tutorial is only ten minutes, the video medium is enjoyable, and it helps to empower students to advocate on their own behalf.
