Monica A
Monica is a wonderful maths tutor for my son. She is patient, encouraging, and explains concepts in a clear and structured way that really helps him understand.
She takes the time to break problems down step by step and adapts her teaching to suit his pace, which has made a big difference to his confidence with maths. My son enjoys the sessions and feels comfortable asking questions when he doesn’t understand something.
I have also appreciated Monica’s professionalism and the care she puts into supporting his learning. I would definitely recommend her to other parents looking for a supportive and dedicated tutor.

Mario S
My daughter had weekly maths lessons with Mario in preparation for her 11+ exams. He challenged her with numerous different papers and questions, honed in on the areas that needed extra work, and worked with her to improve her exam techniques and, crucially, timing skills. She sat the exams feeling confident, and passed both the Sutton SET and Second Stage Exam and was offered her first choice grammar school. I’d be happy to recommend Mario as a tutor.

asked questions
See all FAQs
How can a primary maths tutor help my child?
A primary maths tutor provides focused, one-to-one support that’s hard to get in a busy classroom. They can revisit foundational topics like number bonds or times tables, introduce new concepts gently, and make maths enjoyable while boosting your child’s confidence.
When should my child start primary maths tutoring?
There’s no single “best” time. If your child struggles with certain KS1 or KS2 topics, loses confidence, or needs a boost for assessments, starting tutoring early can help prevent small issues from becoming bigger hurdles.
Is your maths tutoring only online?
Yes! All our lessons are online in an interactive learning space. This makes it easy to access expert tutors from anywhere in the UK, without the hassle of travel. The lessons are engaging, flexible, and just as effective as in-person tuition.
Can I choose my own maths tutor?
Absolutely. You can browse profiles, read reviews, watch introduction videos, and select a tutor who fits your child’s learning style and needs. Finding the right match helps make learning more effective and enjoyable.
How much does online maths tutoring cost?
Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly shown on their profiles. This gives you the flexibility to find a tutor that fits your budget. There are no hidden fees - you only pay for the lessons your child takes.
What primary maths topics can a tutor cover?
Our tutors cover the full primary curriculum. That includes basic counting and number recognition in KS1, as well as more advanced topics in KS2 like fractions, decimals, percentages, shape, space, and measurement. Whatever your child struggles with, a tutor can break it down and make it easier to understand.
Will my child gain confidence with a maths tutor?
Definitely! One-to-one tutoring offers personalised attention and encouragement. Children often feel more capable, motivated, and positive about maths, which can make a real difference to their learning and overall confidence.
