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
Can a tutor help my child get the GCSE Maths grade they need for Truro College?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experts in the GCSE curriculum and know what colleges like Truro College look for. They can focus on the specific topics and exam techniques your child needs to strengthen their application and secure their place on their chosen A-Level courses.
My child is interested in science at the University of Exeter. How can a tutor help?
That's a fantastic goal. A tutor can build a strong foundation in Maths right from the GCSE stage, which is critical for science A-Levels and university-level study. They can help your child develop the deep conceptual understanding and problem-solving skills that top universities like Exeter value highly.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for learning. 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 do I choose the right Maths tutor in Penryn for my child?
You can watch tutors' introductory videos, read reviews from other parents, and filter by experience with specific exam boards. We recommend messaging a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking. It's all about finding someone your child will feel comfortable with.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors are background-checked and we interview every single one. We're very selective and only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How much does online Maths tuition cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own hourly rates, and you can easily filter your search to find someone who fits your budget. There are no hidden fees or contracts.
How do the online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a shared whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing. All your child needs is a laptop or computer with a microphone and a stable internet connection.
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 one-to-one tutor can create a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without fear of judgement. By breaking down tricky topics and celebrating small wins, they can help rebuild your child's confidence piece by piece.
Do you only offer academic subjects, or could my child learn something else?
While we cover all academic subjects from Primary to degree level, we also have talented tutors who can teach a wide range of skills and hobbies. Whether your child wants to learn to play the guitar, get into coding with Python, or even learn a new language, we can help.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one hour-long session per week is ideal for making steady progress. However, you're in complete control. You can arrange lessons as frequently as you feel your child needs, which might be more often in the run-up to an exam.
Can a tutor help with a specific GCSE exam board, like AQA or Edexcel?
Yes, definitely. Many tutors state which exam boards they specialise in on their profiles. You can use our filters to find a tutor with specific experience in your child's exam board to ensure the content is perfectly matched to what they'll face in their exams.
How quickly can I find a tutor?
You can find and book a tutor very quickly. Our platform lets you message tutors directly to ask about their availability. Many parents are able to find the right tutor and have their first lesson scheduled within 24 hours.
