Personalised Maths Support That Works for Your Family
Finding the right person to support your child is everything. That's why we only accept 1 in every 8 tutors who apply. Our tutors are experts not just in Maths, but in understanding how to connect with young people. They take the time to learn how your child thinks, pinpointing exactly where they need help and building a supportive relationship that helps them feel confident asking questions.
Every online lesson is built around your child. If they're struggling to get their head around quadratic equations for their GCSEs, the session will focus on that. If they need to practise exam technique to turn a grade 5 into a 7, their tutor will create a plan to get them there. It's this dedicated, one-to-one attention that means we can help improve your child's GCSE results by up to 2 grades.
Juggling school, activities, and family life is hard enough. Our online platform makes finding support simple.

Michael R
Experienced and effective Maths Tutor
I am an experienced tutor and have been working in Somerset for the last fifteen years. In the past I have tutored students who cannot access full-time education for different reasons (health, mobility, faith and behavioural, for example) and always try to tailor my tuition to the individual's needs.I have worked as an examiner for both A level (chemistry), GCSE (sciences) and SATS (maths) so this means I am able not only to tutor the subject but also improve examination technique. Mathematics and all three sciences can be covered at GCSE in any combination and I have gained a sound working knowledge...

Laura is a fantastic tutor! She put our daughter at ease straight away and has a great rapport with her. They have fun during the lesson. We often hear them chatting between tasks. Despite my daughter finding maths tricky, she genuinely looks forward to her sessions and enjoys them immensely! We would definitely recommend Laura.

Majbeen S
My son is just about to sit his maths GCSE. He enjoys maths, but got a grade lower than expected in his mocks due, fundamentally, to panicking in the exam and his mind going blank. He really wasn’t keen on having a tutor at all, but I persevered and I’m so glad I did. Majbeen has great communication skills in addition to academic skills and is incredibly professional. She understands she needs to build academic knowledge, but also his confidence, which she is doing. From his very first lesson with her he came out buzzing, which has happened every subsequent lesson. His only regret is not finding her sooner. I wholeheartedly recommend Majbeen, watching her turn around his confidence before his exams has been a total relief. I just asked him now if he thought she’d make an difference in the exams results and he said without hesitation “yes”,
