One-to-one Maths Support, Tailored for the Scottish Curriculum

Finding the right person to support your child is everything. Our tutors are experts in their subject, but more importantly, they're mentors who understand the specific demands of the Scottish curriculum. They take the time to get to know your child’s learning style, pinpointing the exact areas where they need a bit of extra help, whether that’s with algebra or calculus. Every 50-minute lesson is built entirely around your child. There’s no trying to keep up with a class; the focus is purely on their goals. A tutor can patiently work through tricky topics from past SQA papers, practise exam techniques, and build a solid understanding that helps your child walk into their exams feeling prepared and confident. We make it easy to find the right support. You can browse our background-checked tutors, read reviews from other parents, and schedule lessons at times that fit around your family’s life. With our secure online classroom, your child can learn from the comfort of home, getting the help they need without any extra travel or stress.

My son has been having regular weekly A-level maths lessons with Peter for a couple of months now and he's absolutely brilliant. My son says he's the best tutor he's had - he's super positive and encouraging, explains things really clearly and just makes things make sense that my son had found tricky in his college maths classes. Peter is always really helpful if we need to change the day or time of a session and responds to messages promptly. My son is already feeling much more confident about his maths exams and looks forwards to his sessions with Peter. Would definitely recommend!

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

Do your tutors understand the Scottish curriculum, like the jump from National 5 to Higher Maths?

Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors specialise in the Scottish curriculum and have extensive experience helping students navigate the specific challenges of SQA Maths. You can see their experience on their profile and even message them before booking to ensure they're the right fit for your child.

My child is aiming for a competitive course at the University of Edinburgh. Can a tutor help with this?

Yes. Our tutors can provide targeted support to help your child achieve the specific Higher Maths grade required for their chosen university course. They can focus on mastering key topics and developing the exam technique needed to secure a top grade.

How do I choose the right Maths tutor for my child?

It's a personal choice, and we make it easy to find the right match. You can filter tutors by subject level and availability, read detailed profiles, and see reviews from thousands of other parents. We recommend watching their intro video and messaging a few to find someone your child will connect with.

How does online tutoring actually work?

It's simple and effective. All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom, which features a two-way interactive whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing. It allows your child and their tutor to work through problems together in real-time, just as they would in person.

How much does an online Maths tutor cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications, but typically range from £20 to £45 per hour. There are no contracts or hidden fees, and you can see each tutor's price clearly on their profile.

How can a tutor help if my child has lost confidence in Maths?

This is one of the most important things a tutor can do. By providing patient, one-to-one support in a positive environment, a tutor can help your child understand topics at their own pace. These small wins build up over time, helping to restore their self-belief and enjoyment of the subject.

Are all your tutors background-checked?

Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor is identity and background-checked before they can teach on our platform. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.

How quickly will we see an improvement?

Every child learns differently, but our data shows that 90% of students improve by at least one grade with our tutors. The biggest immediate change parents often notice is a boost in their child's confidence and a more positive attitude towards their studies.

What if we don't get on with our first choice of tutor?

We want to make sure you find the perfect fit. 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.

Is this just for school subjects, or can my child learn other skills?

While we cover all academic subjects from Primary to University level, we also have tutors who can help your child learn practical skills like coding, playing the guitar, or even preparing for their university interviews and writing a personal statement.

Can a tutor help my child with their SQA exam technique?

Definitely. A key part of tutoring for Higher Maths is exam preparation. Tutors can work through past papers, teach your child how to structure their answers to gain maximum marks, and help them manage their time effectively under exam conditions.

Our family schedule is very busy. Is tutoring flexible?

Yes, that's one of the main benefits of online tutoring. You're not limited to tutors in your local area, so you have a much wider choice of times. You can schedule lessons for evenings or weekends to fit around school, clubs, and family life.
