Jonathan S
Jonathan has been tutoring me for almost 2 years to help me achieve my target of A* predictions in Further and Normal Maths. He has been a great help no matter what I bring to lessons and has a great way of explaining things, adapting to my struggles to make sure I understand. By first covering the theory, then consolidating with exam questions, every lesson was extremely productive and left me feeling challenged. On top of providing consistent support for my A Levels, Jonathan helped me with my application to Cambridge, with both interview and admission test practice. It is not a goodbye as I would be seeking your guidance again. Thank you so much Jonathan, you have been a massive help.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child wants to apply for Engineering at Edinburgh University. Can a tutor help with the specific Advanced Higher requirements?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are specialists in the Scottish curriculum and have experience helping students prepare for competitive university courses. They can provide targeted support on the specific Advanced Higher Maths and Mechanics topics needed to make your child's application stand out.
We live in the Scottish Borders where specialist tutors are rare. How does online tutoring solve this?
Online tutoring removes geographical barriers completely. Your child can connect with a top Further Maths specialist from anywhere in the UK, giving them access to the kind of expert support that might not be available locally. It ensures their ambitions aren't limited by their postcode.
How do I choose the right Further Maths tutor for my child?
It's a really personal choice. You can read detailed tutor profiles, watch introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend sending messages to a few tutors to discuss your child's specific needs before booking. Finding someone they connect with is key.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
Are all tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor must have a valid DBS check (or equivalent) and we verify their ID and references. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can feel confident you're choosing from the best.
How much does a Further Maths tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. This transparency allows you to find an experienced tutor who fits your budget.
How does online tutoring work? What do we need?
It's simple! All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which includes an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing to make learning engaging and effective.
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 they might not ask in class. A great tutor celebrates small wins and patiently works through challenges, helping your child see their own ability and feel more positive about the subject.
Are the tutors qualified to teach Advanced Higher Further Maths?
Yes. You can filter your search for tutors with specific experience in the Scottish curriculum, including Advanced Highers. Their profiles detail their qualifications and teaching background, so you can find an expert who knows exactly what's required.
How do I know if my child is making progress?
Tutors will provide regular feedback on your child's progress. You can also message your tutor at any time to discuss how things are going. The biggest sign, however, is often a positive change in your child's attitude towards their studies and a growing sense of confidence.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
Most sessions are one hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can discuss different session lengths with your tutor to find what works best for your child's concentration and your family's schedule.
Is tutoring only for school subjects, or could my child learn something like coding or a musical instrument?
We offer tutoring in over 300 subjects! While we have experts for academic subjects from 11+ to degree level, we also have brilliant tutors who can help your child learn new skills like coding, playing the guitar, or even learning a new language.
