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.

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 T
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 feeling the pressure to get a top GCSE grade to keep up with students from the Torbay grammar schools. Can a tutor help?
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.
We're hoping for a place at the University of Exeter or Plymouth. Can a tutor help with the step up from GCSE to A-Level Maths?
Yes, many of our tutors are experienced in supporting students through this important transition. They can help bridge the gap between GCSE and A-Level Maths, ensuring your child has a solid foundation of knowledge to start their college courses with confidence.
How do I choose the right Maths tutor for my child?
It's all about the right fit. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and message tutors for free to discuss your child's needs. Finding someone your child connects with is the key to building their confidence.
How much does online Maths tutoring cost in Totnes?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles, so you can find an expert tutor that fits your family's budget.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our priority. We interview every tutor and all tutors must have a valid DBS check. We're very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How do online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a shared whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing. It’s a simple and effective way for your child to learn from home, without you needing to worry about travel.
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 tutor, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
My child has really lost their confidence in Maths. How can a tutor help?
This is one of the main reasons parents come to us. A great tutor provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By working at their pace and celebrating small wins, a tutor can help rebuild their self-belief, one lesson at a time.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one hour a week is ideal for making steady progress. However, it's completely flexible. You can arrange sessions with your tutor as often as you feel your child needs them, especially in the run-up to exams.
Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we help thousands of students with academic subjects like Maths and English, we also have expert tutors for a huge range of other skills. From learning to play the guitar or piano to coding in Python, we're here to support your child's passions.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
Our tutors provide regular feedback to keep you in the loop. You can also message your tutor at any time to discuss your child's progress. Seeing their confidence grow and their school results improve is often the clearest sign of success.
Do we need any special software?
No, not at all. All you need is a laptop or computer with a webcam, a microphone, and a stable internet connection. Our online classroom is browser-based, so there's nothing to download or install.
