We offer Maths tutoring at a wide variety of levels, from young learners (7+, 11+, 13+, etc.) to older learners (GCSE, IGCSE, A Level, IB, Pre-U, etc.) and even to adult learners (those doing undergraduates or Masters courses, or learning just for fun).
Our qualified Maths tutors have been hand-picked by teaching experts (our longest-standing, most successful tutors, some of whom are PGCE qualified teachers) in our thorough selection process.
Olaf
Featured Maths tutor
Olaf studied Mathematics at Cambridge University, and went on to do a Masters degree at Cambridge.
Since then he has been tutoring in a variety of contexts while pursuing a part-time PhD at Oxford University, where he has also been involved in teaching undergraduates and setting and marking exams. His research project uses supercomputers to create simulations of dark matter. Olaf has four degus (a type of rodent from South America) and is currently teaching them to play football.
How can a Maths tutor help?
Every situation is different and tailored to the individual student, but most Maths tutors will provide:
1. Assessment and Goal Setting: a Maths tutor will typically begin by assessing the student's current understanding of the subject and identifying their strengths and areas that need improvement. The tutor and student then set specific learning goals for a series of sessions.
2. Review and Clarification: in each session a Maths tutor can review the previous lesson's material to check the student's recall and understanding. They can clarify any confusions or misconceptions the student might have and address any questions that may have arisen since the last session.
3. New Topics: the tutor can introduce new Maths topics, concepts or skills according to the curriculum or the student's needs. They will explain these concepts step by step, breaking down complex ideas into simpler pieces.
4. Practice and Application: The student will be guided through practice problems related to the new concepts. The Maths tutor can provide guidance, offer tips, and teach problem-solving techniques.
5. Feedback and Correction: As the student attempts problems, the Maths tutor will provide immediate feedback on their approach and solutions. They will correct mistakes and offer suggestions for improvement.
6. Homework: if the student is able to find some time for independent study between sessions, a Maths tutor can assign relevant 'mini homeworks' or practice problems for the student to work on. This helps reinforce learning and ensures continuous progress. For those taking exams, the Maths tutor can set the student past papers to complete in their own time, and then use the following session to go through any areas where the student lost marks.
7. Progress Tracking: a Maths tutor can keep track of the student's progress over time, adjusting the lesson plans and strategies as needed to address any individual challenges or to accelerate learning. Inevitably this will be more effective than in a classroom environment, where a teacher's time and attention is split in so many different directions.
8. Motivation and Support: a private Maths tutor will provide motivation, encouragement, and emotional support to boost the student's confidence and enthusiasm for the subject. They help the student overcome any Maths-related anxieties.
A private one-to-one Maths lesson is tailored to the student's specific needs, ensuring focused learning, individualised attention, and continuous progress in mastering mathematical concepts and skills.
