Raquel A
Supportive and Structured Maths Tutor
Hello and welcome! My name is Raquel and I look forward to meeting you soon. In the meantime, allow me to share with you why I choose to tutor: Mixed memories of middle school and college spring to mind. Excitement bubbling up to return to school after a fun and well spend summer holiday with family and friends. What formed part of the anticipation was the sense of being ready. Ready to sit in class with fellow classmates, ready to take home homework, planning and organising assignments. It may seem as if I had forgotten the stress and pressure I found myself under in the previous school year,...

Callum A
Our son had a 15-minute introductory session with Callum focusing specifically on Transformations in Coordinate Geometry. We were genuinely impressed.
Callum explained rotations, reflections and translations in a clear, logical way, checked our son’s reasoning, and quickly identified the gaps in his understanding.
We’re now booking full sessions and feel confident that we’ve chosen a truly excellent maths tutor.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child get the GCSE Maths grade needed for Barton Peveril or Peter Symonds College?
Yes, absolutely. This is one of the most common goals for parents in Southampton. Our tutors are experienced in helping students secure the high grades needed for competitive colleges. They can focus on specific areas of the GCSE syllabus and build exam technique, which can help improve results by up to two grades.
My child is hoping to study a STEM subject at the University of Southampton. Can a tutor support this goal?
Definitely. Many of our Maths tutors are university-level specialists who can help your child build the deep understanding needed for A-Levels and a successful university application, particularly for a prestigious Russell Group university like Southampton.
How do I choose the right Maths tutor for my child?
You can read tutor profiles, watch their introductory videos, and check reviews from other parents. We recommend messaging a few to find someone your child will get on with. It's all about finding the right personality match to help your child feel comfortable and confident.
How much does online Maths tutoring cost?
The cost varies depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles, so you can find an experienced tutor that fits your family's budget.
How can a tutor help if my child has lost their confidence in Maths?
Confidence is key. A private tutor provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By going back over topics they've missed and celebrating small wins, a tutor can help rebuild their self-belief, which often has a huge impact on their results.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right fit is, which is why we have our first lesson guarantee. If you don't get on with your first tutor for any reason, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
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 to learn from the comfort of your own home, with no travel required.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every single one of our tutors has passed an enhanced DBS check before they can teach on our platform. We also interview every applicant and only accept 1 in 8, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one hour-long lesson per week works best. This provides regular, consistent support that helps build momentum without overwhelming your child. You can easily arrange a schedule that works for you directly with your tutor.
Can a tutor help with specific topics like algebra or geometry?
Of course. The great thing about one-to-one tutoring is that lessons are completely tailored to your child's needs. If they're finding a particular topic tricky, their tutor can spend as much time as needed to help them understand it fully before moving on.
Do you offer tutoring for other subjects or skills beyond core academics?
Yes! While we offer expert support in all academic subjects from Primary to A-Level, we also have fantastic tutors who can teach practical skills like coding, learning a musical instrument like the guitar, or even a new language.
How quickly will I see an improvement in my child's grades?
Every child learns at their own pace, but the goal is always to make steady progress. Many parents tell us they see a boost in their child's confidence first, which is then followed by an improvement in their results. In fact, 90% of our students improve by at least one grade.
