Joseph M
Friendly, down-to-earth tutor who explains things clearly
Hi, I'm Joseph!I want you to have a genuine sense of what's going on---if you just blindly do practice problems, you'll get stuck the moment something looks different. I'll give you real understanding and make abstract ideas click.A session with me involves lots of discussion with questions going back and forth, so that you not only learn but actually connect with the material. Over a series of sessions, this approach makes ideas stick---not because you've memorised steps, but because you actually get how they fit into the bigger picture.I have a Master's and a PhD in Mathematics, which have given...

Friendly and helpful A-Level Maths and GCSE Science Tutor
I enjoy Mathematics greatly, having studied both Maths and Further Maths at A-Level, also while I was at sixth form I took part in working as a classroom assistant in Year 8 Maths lessons, which gave me valuable experience at teaching students.

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

Can a tutor help my child with their application for Coleg y Cymoedd or universities like Cardiff?

Absolutely. Many of our tutors have experience helping students with their personal statements and preparing for the academic demands of further and higher education. They can help your child build the skills and confidence needed to put forward a strong application.

My child is finding the Welsh Baccalaureate particularly challenging. Can we find a tutor who understands it?

Yes. You can use our search filters to find tutors with specific experience in the Welsh curriculum, including the Welsh Baccalaureate. They can provide targeted support to help your child navigate the requirements and achieve their best grade.

What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

We want to find the perfect match for your child. That's why we have our First Lesson Guarantee. If for any reason you feel the first tutor isn't the right fit, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

Is tutoring just for core academic subjects?

Not at all! While we have fantastic tutors for Maths, English, and Science, we also have experts who can teach practical and creative skills. You can find tutors for everything from coding and music theory to learning a new language or playing the guitar.

How do I choose the right tutor for my child?

You can read reviews from other parents, watch introductory videos, and check each tutor's qualifications on their profile. We also recommend sending a message to a few tutors to discuss your child's needs before booking. It's all about finding someone your child will feel comfortable with.

How much does online tutoring in Ferndale cost?

Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and the subject level. You can see each tutor's hourly rate clearly displayed on their profile. There are no hidden fees or long-term contracts, so you can find great support that fits your family's budget.

How can a tutor help my child if they lack confidence?

Confidence is key to learning. In a one-to-one setting, tutors can create a safe, encouraging environment where your child isn't afraid to make mistakes. By breaking down topics and celebrating small wins, they help build your child's self-belief, which often has a positive impact on their schoolwork in general.

Are the 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 have complete peace of mind.

How do online lessons work?

Lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It features an interactive whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing, making it easy for your child to collaborate with their tutor. All they need is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.

How often should my child have a lesson?

This really depends on your child's goals. Most families start with one session a week, as this consistency helps build momentum. You can discuss what's best for your child directly with your chosen tutor.

Can tutoring help my child improve their GCSE grades?

Yes, it can make a big difference. We've found that one-to-one support can help improve a child's GCSE results by up to two grades. Tutors can focus on specific areas of weakness and build exam confidence.

How do I know if my child is making progress?

Our tutors provide regular feedback to help you stay in the loop. You can also message your tutor at any time to discuss your child's progress. The goal is to work together to help your child achieve their goals.
