Expert Online Further Maths Tutors in East Lothian to Help Secure Their University Place

It's completely understandable to feel concerned about the big step up to Advanced Higher Maths, especially when you know a place at a top university like Edinburgh or St Andrews is so competitive. You want to give your child the best possible chance, but worry that even with great teaching at schools like North Berwick High or Dunbar Grammar, they might be at a disadvantage compared to applicants from elsewhere. Finding the right one-to-one support can make all the difference. A personal Further Maths tutor works with your child, focusing on the specific topics they find tricky and building the confidence they need to aim high. It’s about levelling the playing field and helping them show universities what they're truly capable of.

Why Advanced Higher Maths is Key for a Top STEM Degree

For competitive STEM degrees in subjects like Engineering, Computer Science, or Medicine, Advanced Higher Maths is more than just another qualification – it's a clear signal to universities that your child is ready for the challenge. Mastering complex numbers, matrices, and advanced calculus develops the precise, logical thinking that these demanding courses are built on. It shows admissions tutors at places like St Andrews and Edinburgh that your child has the foundational knowledge and resilience to excel from day one.

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

My child hopes to study a STEM subject at the University of Edinburgh. Can a tutor help with this specific goal?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in helping students with their university applications. They can focus on the specific Advanced Higher topics that are most relevant for courses at Edinburgh, St Andrews, and other top universities, helping your child build the skills and confidence to stand out.

We live in East Lothian and are worried my child's school doesn't cover all the Advanced Higher units. Can a tutor fill these gaps?

Yes, this is a perfect example of how one-to-one tutoring can help. An online tutor can create a bespoke learning plan to cover any specialist units or topics that aren't available at your child's school, ensuring they have a complete and thorough understanding of the whole curriculum.

How do I choose the right Further Maths tutor for my child?

It's easy to find the right fit. You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend sending a message to a few tutors to discuss your child's specific goals before booking to ensure you find the perfect match.

What if we don't click with the first tutor?

We know that the right student-tutor relationship is key to success. That's why we have a first lesson guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

How much does online Further Maths tutoring cost?

The price of tutoring varies depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles, so you can find an excellent tutor who fits your family's budget.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence?

Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one session, your child has a safe space to ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By patiently working through problems together, a tutor helps them experience those 'aha!' moments that turn confusion into confidence.

Are all the tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single UK-based tutor on our platform undergoes a thorough vetting process, including an ID check and a background check, before they can start teaching.

How do online lessons work?

Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It's a simple and effective way for them to learn from the comfort of home.

Does tutoring really help improve grades?

Yes, it makes a real difference. We're proud that 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. For GCSE students, this can be an improvement of up to two grades. It's why over 200,000 students have trusted us to help them achieve their goals.

My child is already doing well. How can a tutor help them aim even higher?

That's a great position to be in. For a high-achieving student, a tutor can act as a mentor, stretching them with more challenging problems, exploring topics in greater depth, and honing their exam technique to help turn a B into an A, or an A into an A*.

How many lessons will my child need?

There's no set number. Some students have a regular weekly lesson to stay on top of their studies, while others might just want a few sessions to prepare for a specific exam. You and the tutor can work out a flexible plan that's right for your child.

Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we cover all academic subjects from Primary to degree level, your child can also learn practical skills like coding, public speaking, or even learn to play the guitar with our specialist tutors.
