Matthew G
Let’s work out Maths together!
Hola!My name is Matthew and (hopefully!) I might end up being your next tutor!Teaching style: I’m a huge fan of learning from first principles. If you’re looking for someone to rote learn things with, I may not be the tutor for you. Instead I enjoy taking things back to basics and building up from there as it’s so much easier to understand something rather than just memorise it (well at least I think so anyway!). I prefer to meet my students wherever they are knowledge-wise, instead of prescribing a formal plan, and then work through what’s most important to them and their learning goals. Whether...

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is thinking about applying to the University of Dundee. Can a tutor help with the specific maths skills needed?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors have experience helping students prepare for university applications. They can focus on the specific mathematical concepts required for your child's desired course, strengthening their skills and boosting their confidence for the next step.
Since we live in Dundee, does my child's tutor need to be local too?
No, and that's one of the biggest benefits of online tutoring! Your child can connect with the best National 5 Maths specialist from anywhere in the UK, not just the tutors available locally. This gives you a much wider choice of experts to find the perfect fit for your child.
How do I choose the right Maths National 5 tutor for my child?
We make it easy to find the perfect match. You can watch introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and check each tutor's experience and qualifications on their profile. You can also send them a message before booking to make sure they're a good fit for your child's personality and learning style.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right connection is for learning. 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.
How much does a Maths National 5 tutor cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates based on their experience and qualifications, so you can find someone who fits your budget. Prices are clearly displayed on each tutor's profile, so there are no hidden costs. You can browse and compare to find the right option for your family.
How can a tutor help my child if they've lost confidence in Maths?
This is one of the most common reasons parents come to us. A great tutor provides a patient and encouraging environment. They'll go back to basics if needed, break down difficult topics into smaller steps, and celebrate small wins along the way to help rebuild your child's self-belief.
Are your tutors qualified to teach the Scottish National 5 curriculum?
Yes. Many of our tutors are experts in the SQA curriculum. You can use our search filters to find tutors who specifically state they have experience teaching for National 5 exams, ensuring your child gets relevant and effective support.
Are all tutors background checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed a background check. We also have a rigorous selection process, and we only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It includes a video chat, an interactive whiteboard for working through problems together, and a way to share documents. It's a secure and effective way for your child to learn from the comfort of home.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
Most tutoring sessions are one hour long, as this gives enough time to cover a topic properly without your child losing focus. However, you can discuss your needs directly with your tutor, as many are flexible with session length.
How will I know if my child is making progress?
You'll see it in their growing confidence and hear it in the way they talk about Maths. Tutors also provide regular feedback on the areas your child is improving in and what they'll be working on next. This, combined with better results at school, will show you the positive impact tutoring is having.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills?
While we're well known for core subjects like Maths and English, we have amazing tutors for hundreds of subjects! Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get into coding with Python, or even learn a new language, you can find an expert tutor to help them.
