Rida Q
Tutoring specific to the new curriculum Maths bio, chem
Hi I’m Rida! I’m a third year medical student looking to help other students get through their GCSES. Since the change in curriculum it can be a little difficult to get your head around the format and from someone who’s been through the process I’m readily available to help. Being a student myself I know exactly the feeling of frustration when you can’t understand a topic and need assistance. I’m most familiar with AQA and OCR and my lessons would start by establishing what kind of learner are you? This could be visual or auditory aswell as many more. By rating the topics RED AMBER and GREEN w...

Charlie B
Mu daughter has recently started A-level maths lessons with Charlie. He is an excellent teacher. The lessons are well structured, with a strong focus on exam-style questions, which is exactly what is needed at this level. He also provides clear, constructive feedback after each session, which has been very helpful. We would highly recommend him to other A-level students.

Eduarda T
Eduarda has been a wonderful tutor for out son studying A Level maths. He has achieved a grade B and is on to university. With her patients, support and knowledge she has supportive him in achieving this grade, when initially he was predicted a D grade in maths. We could not recommend her highly enough for anyone requiring support for A Level maths. She even supported him with a few sessions in physics which secured him a grade B too. She is always on time and flexible if things need to change, she is just brilliant!

Peter helped me understand the foundations of Complex Numbers in a single lesson. He clearly explained different forms, roots, De Moivre’s Theorem, and the Argand diagram. These topics had not made sense to me over the last four months at school. I already feel confident and encouraged. His teaching approach is clear and effective. I recommend him.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is at Cottenham Village College. Can a tutor help them aim for a top grade 8 or 9 in Maths to get into Hills Road or Long Road?
Absolutely. This is a very common goal for families we support in your area. Our tutors specialise in helping students move from a good grade to a top one. They can focus on exam technique, problem-solving skills, and mastering the advanced topics needed to secure those crucial 8s and 9s for competitive sixth form entry.
We're worried about the step up to A-Level Maths. Can a tutor prepare my child for the more demanding courses?
Yes, many of our tutors are A-Level specialists who can help bridge the gap between GCSE and sixth form study. They can pre-teach key A-Level topics, build problem-solving confidence, and ensure your child starts their new courses at Hills Road, Long Road, or elsewhere feeling prepared and ahead of the curve.
How do I choose the right Maths tutor for my child?
It’s all about finding the right fit. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message tutors for free to discuss your child's needs before booking. Finding someone your child connects with is key to building their confidence.
How much does online Maths tutoring cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications, but you can filter by price to find someone who fits your budget. Tutors set their own rates, giving you a wide range of options to choose from.
How can a tutor help my child if they've lost confidence in Maths?
Confidence is everything. In a one-to-one setting, there are no silly questions. A tutor creates a safe, patient environment where your child can build their self-belief, one topic at a time. This positive experience often has a wonderful impact on their attitude towards learning in general.
Are all your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform undergoes a thorough vetting process, including an ID check and a background check. We're very selective and only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
What happens if we don't like the first tutor we try?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match, which is 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.
Can tutoring really improve my child's GCSE Maths grade?
Yes, it really can. Our data shows that 90% of our students improve by at least one grade, with our platform helping to boost GCSE results by up to two grades. The personalised attention makes a significant difference.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It has all the tools needed for a fun and engaging lesson, all from the comfort of your home.
How long will my child need a tutor for?
This completely depends on your child's goals. Some students need a few sessions to prepare for an exam, while others benefit from weekly support throughout the school year. You can discuss this directly with your chosen tutor, with no long-term commitment required.
What happens in a typical one-hour Maths lesson?
Every lesson is tailored to your child. A tutor might start by reviewing homework, then move on to explaining a new concept using the interactive whiteboard, and finish by working through practice exam questions together. The focus is always on what your child needs most at that moment.
Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn skills like coding or guitar?
We offer tutoring for a huge range of pursuits, not just academic subjects. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get started with coding in Python, or learn a new language, you can find expert tutors to help them explore their passions.
