Experienced Maths tutor
Hi, I’m a Master’s graduate in Biomedical Science from the University of Glasgow, and I’m passionate about helping students achieve their academic goals in a way that’s both fun and effective.Growing up, I found school challenging—balancing coursework with extracurricular activities made it difficult to maintain high grades. However, once I reached university, I developed better study strategies that helped me excel and achieve top marks. This experience has shaped my approach to tutoring: I focus on understanding concepts, not just memorizing theory. I believe that when students grasp the why b...

Maths Maths
I have been teaching for the past 12 years and have had a GCSE group year in and year out. I have a record of amazing results especially with new spec which students find particularly difficult. My teaching style is relating stuff to real life so students can easily remember concepts next time. Also, repetition is so paramount when it comes to Maths as practise is the only way you can secure any knowledge.Whatever the topic you are struggling with I have got different ways of explaining it till we get to the point where you actually understand everything.

Tara A
I can’t recommend Tara enough! In just two months, she helped me improve my Maths GCSE grade from a 6 to a 7, which felt impossible before I started. Her teaching style is excellent—clear, patient, and really well-structured. She explains difficult topics in a way that actually makes sense and tailors lessons to focus on weaknesses while building confidence. Every session was productive and motivating, and I felt fully supported throughout. Thanks to her guidance, my understanding and exam technique improved massively. An outstanding tutor!

Greg S
Greg has been absolutely fantastic with my 14 year old son. He went from dreading learning to actually looking forward to sessions, which has been a huge shift for us.
Greg is highly empathetic and quickly understood Harry’s SEN profile, identifying areas of weakness and adapting his teaching style and pace to suit him perfectly. The one-to-one approach worked incredibly well for my son's anxiety, and as a result we’ve seen clear academic progress alongside a big boost in confidence.
He has also built a strong relationship with Greg in a short space of time and genuinely sees him as a trusted adult, which has made all the difference. We couldn’t be happier and would highly recommend Greg to anyone looking for a tutor who truly understands and supports the individual child.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is hoping to study A-Levels at Harton Academy or St Wilfrid's. Can a tutor help them get the grades they need?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in helping students aim for specific grades needed for competitive sixth forms. They can focus on the topics required to move from a grade 5 to a 6 or 7, building the skills and confidence your child needs to secure their place.
We live in South Shields. Can a tutor help prepare my child for STEM degrees at universities like Newcastle or Durham?
Definitely. A strong Maths GCSE is the first step towards competitive STEM degrees. Our tutors can help your child master the foundational concepts that universities like Newcastle and Durham look for, setting them up for success in their A-Levels and future applications.
How do I pick the right Maths GCSE tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their short introductory videos. Many tutors also offer a free 15-minute chat to discuss your child's goals before you book, helping you feel confident you've made the right choice.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect match. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your first tutor for any reason, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover the cost of your first session with a new tutor.
How much does a Maths GCSE tutor cost in South Shields?
Tutor prices vary depending on their experience. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly on their profile, allowing you to find a brilliant tutor who fits your family's budget. There are no hidden fees or long-term contracts.
How do you make sure tutors are safe to work with children?
Your child’s safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform undergoes a thorough vetting process, including an ID check and a DBS background check. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
Can tutoring help my child if they've lost confidence in Maths?
Yes, this is one of the biggest benefits of one-to-one tuition. A great tutor creates a patient and encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Rebuilding that confidence is often the first step to unlocking better grades.
How does online tutoring work?
All lessons take place in our specially designed online classroom. It has video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and file sharing, making it feel just like being in the same room. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a webcam and a stable internet connection.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something like coding or a musical instrument?
We offer a huge range of subjects beyond the core curriculum! Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get ahead with coding in Python, or even learn a new language, you can find experienced tutors on our platform.
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 your child losing focus. However, you are free to arrange different session lengths directly with your chosen tutor.
How soon can my child start their lessons?
You can get started right away. Simply use the search filters to find tutors with availability, send a message to the one you like, and you can arrange your first lesson for as soon as tomorrow.
