About Stella MacDonald Tutoring
Enjoyable, personalised home tutoring for 7 to 13 year-olds, helping to boost confidence and overcome literacy challenges and a variety of other learning needs.

I founded Stella MacDonald Tutoring in 2019 after more than twenty years working in primary education both as a teacher and Special Educational Needs Coordinator (SENDCo). I’ve worked with children with a wide range of learning profiles, including Dyslexia, Speech and Language Needs, Autism and ADHD.
I specialise in teaching English and maths, tailoring every lesson to suit individual interests, strengths and specific needs. When children enjoy learning, they build confidence—and with confidence, they succeed.
I offer one-to-one tuition for children of all abilities, in the comfort of their own home in the Saltash, Looe, and Liskeard areas of Cornwall.
If you think I might be the right tutor for your child, please feel free to get in touch—I’d love to hear from you.

Testimonials
Stella takes the time to understand a child’s learning needs and adapts the lessons to suit the child. We highly recommended her to everyone. Stella has a kind gentle nature which our child needs to help him progress with learning .
Just wanted to say how Florence's learning has improved massively since her one to one tutoring started. Her enthusiasm and confidence has grown so much stronger now. There was a time when she would shy away from home learning questions, now she's doing it with a smile on her face and really enjoying it!
Stella is a lovely teacher who has really supported our son in his education over a very challenging year. She is really thoughtful with the lesson content and always manages to find something special to Alex to encourage him to engage with each lesson.
