The Right Maths Support, Designed for Your Child
We believe the best learning happens when a tutor truly understands your child. That's why our tutors take the time to get to know their students – how they learn, what they find tricky, and what their goals are. This isn't just about getting through the curriculum; it's a partnership focused on building your child's confidence. We handpick the best tutors from across the UK, with only 1 in 8 applicants making it onto our platform, so you can be sure your child is in safe hands.
Every online lesson is tailored to what your child needs right now. If they're struggling with quadratic equations, the tutor can spend time patiently breaking it down. If they need to practise analysing data for their GCSEs, the session can focus entirely on that. This personalised approach is why 90% of students improve by at least one grade, and many improve their GCSE results by up to two grades.
Finding the right support shouldn't add to your family's stress. With Tutorful, you can connect with the perfect Maths tutor from the comfort of your home in Totnes, at a time that fits around your schedule. Join over 200,000 happy students and see how much your child can achieve with the right support.

Heena T
Heena has honestly made a massive difference to my A-level maths. I used to find a lot of topics really confusing, but the way she explains things just makes it click. She’s really patient and always happy to go over things until I fully understand.
She has a lot of knowledge in this subject, especially when it comes to exam questions, which has helped me improve how I approach them. Since I started, my confidence has gone up a lot and my grades have improved more than I expected. I feel much more comfortable with exam-style questions now—definitely one of the best decisions I made.

Gwen W
We couldn’t be happier with the support Ellis has received from Gwen. She is a fantastic teacher who has made a real difference not just to his maths ability, but also to his confidence.
Gwen is kind, patient, and incredibly supportive, always taking the time to explain things clearly and in a way that really clicks. Her thoughtful approach has helped Ellis feel much more comfortable tackling topics he previously found challenging.
Since working with Gwen, Ellis’ understanding and ability in maths have improved significantly, and he approaches his work with far more confidence. We’re so grateful for her guidance and would highly recommend her to anyone looking for an excellent maths tutor.

Shaun H
Shaun was a incredible maths teacher who helped bridge my GCSE gaps when starting the A-level course. He actually initially taught me the course as I hadn't even got the grades to get accepted onto maths in my school, and with his help for year 12 I'm now doing well in year 13. He was a very kind and accommodating tutor. Highly recommend

Steve S
Steve has been a fantastic support for my daughter in the lead-up to her GCSE Maths exams. She had a crisis of confidence in a recent mock, dropping from her usual grade 6–7 to a 4, largely due to nerves and uncertainty around which methods to use. Since working with Steve, that confidence has really started to come back.
He has a very clear and patient way of explaining things, which makes a huge difference. Topics that previously felt intimidating, like surds, have become much more manageable, and she’s starting to approach questions with a clearer sense of direction rather than hesitation.
What stands out most is how he balances clarity with encouragement. The lessons are focused but still enjoyable, which has helped her stay engaged and motivated during a pretty high-pressure period.
We’re really pleased with the progress so far and feel much more confident about her heading into the exams aiming for a grade 7 or above. I wouldn’t hesitate to recommend Steve to anyone looking for thoughtful, effective maths support.

Absolutely. This is a very common goal for parents we work with. A one-to-one tutor can create a focused plan to tackle specific GCSE topics, strengthen your child's exam technique, and build their confidence so they can perform at their best and compete for those top grades.
