Online mathematics tutoring
Maths builds on itself, so a shaky idea in one year quietly becomes a wall two years later. Our tutors work live with one student at a time to find where understanding breaks down, rebuild it, then move forward.
Mathematics at every stage
Tutors follow the stage and curriculum the student is actually studying. These are typical areas of work, not a fixed syllabus.

- Canada Ontario, BC, Alberta and more
- GCSE & IGCSE UK and international boards
- A Levels AS and A2 across boards
- IB PYP, MYP and Diploma

Live, one-to-one and online
-
Live video
Tutor and student see and hear each other throughout, so questions get answered as they come up.
-
Shared whiteboard
Both write on the same board in real time: worked examples, diagrams and the student’s own attempts.
-
Progress updates
Families hear what was covered and what the student should practise before the next lesson.
How tutors approach mathematics
Earlier gaps found and fixed
When today’s algebra rests on shaky fractions or negative numbers, the tutor rebuilds that idea first, while keeping current homework and test dates in view.
Working followed line by line
On the shared whiteboard the tutor sees every step, so a sign error or misused rule is caught the first time it appears, not after a test.
With and without a calculator
Students build non-calculator fluency with exact values, surds and sketching, and learn to use graphing tools such as Desmos well where the exam allows them.
Proof and justification
From geometry proofs to “show that” questions and AP free-response justifications, students practise setting out reasoning that earns method marks.
What families say about mathematics lessons
Verified reviews from families of 1,600+ students across the US, Canada, the UK, the Gulf, Australia, Europe and Asia.
- Verified family
“My son used to hide his maths homework because he was afraid of getting the answers wrong. It was becoming stressful for both of us. What I appreciate most about individual tutoring is that he can ask as many questions as he needs. He doesn’t suddenly love every maths chapter, but he is much more willing to sit down and try.”
Pakistani parent Dubai, UAE Mathematics - Verified family
“My daughter had started saying she was simply not good at maths. That worried me more than her marks, honestly. She needed a teacher who could explain things without making her feel embarrassed. The individual sessions allow her to take her time. We’re still working through the difficult topics, but she’s not as frightened of the subject now.”
Bangladeshi parent London, UK GCSE Mathematics - Verified family
“With the school workload here, my son sometimes needs extra help but doesn’t have time for another group class. What we needed was someone who could go over whichever topic he was finding difficult that week. The individual sessions work well for that. It’s also easier for us as parents because there’s no travelling after school.”
Indian parent Singapore, Singapore Mathematics & Science - Verified family
“My daughter is the kind of student who won’t ask questions in front of a whole class. She would come home confused but insist she understood everything. Private tutoring gives her space to admit when something isn’t clear. She likes being able to spend extra time on the harder questions instead of moving on too quickly.”
Indian parent Sydney, Australia A Level Mathematics - Verified family
“My son understands maths much better when someone explains it individually. At school he wouldn’t ask questions, but in his private lessons he is comfortable asking again and again.”
Pakistani parent Dubai, UAE Mathematics - Verified family
“We tried group tuition first, but my daughter needed more individual attention. These sessions are much more comfortable for her.”
Pakistani parent Birmingham, UK GCSE Mathematics
Mathematics: questions families ask
Can’t find what you need? Send a request and a coordinator will answer your questions personally.
Talk to a coordinatorWe support US Common Core and state-aligned courses, AP, GCSE, IGCSE, A Level, IB (including MYP), Canadian provincial courses, Australian and New Zealand curricula and British or American schools in the Gulf, as well as university modules. Tell us the curriculum and exam board when you request a trial, and we will match a tutor who knows it.
Not necessarily. If the difficulty comes from an earlier gap, such as fractions or negative numbers, the tutor will usually spend time closing it first, while keeping an eye on current schoolwork and deadlines. You can discuss the balance with the coordinator or tutor at any time.
Yes. Many students ask for help with one area: factorising and functions in Algebra 2, proofs in Geometry, the unit circle and identities in trigonometry, or related rates and integration in calculus. The tutor works from the student’s own textbook and tests so the notation and theorem names match the class.
Class examples are often similar to each other, while tests mix question types and add context. The usual fix is practice in recognising which technique a question needs, plus tightening the algebra and trigonometry that slip under time pressure. A tutor can see quickly which of these is the real problem.
Yes. Adults take lessons to prepare for university courses, placement or entrance tests, professional study, or simply to rebuild confidence after years away from maths. The tutor starts from what you remember, without assuming a school-age context, and you can request the free trial yourself.
A laptop or tablet with a camera and microphone, a stable internet connection, paper, a pencil and the calculator the course requires. A stylus or graphics tablet makes writing on the shared whiteboard easier, but it is optional; a phone camera is enough to share written working.
