A-Level · One-to-one online tuition
Online A-Level Maths Tutor
Online A-Level Maths tuition for AQA, Edexcel and OCR students who want to improve understanding, solve unfamiliar problems and prepare efficiently for exams.
I work one-to-one with students adjusting to the jump from GCSE, resolving gaps in a particular topic or aiming to turn a strong grade into an excellent one. Lessons can support pure mathematics, statistics and mechanics across the course.
Build algebraic fluency so later topics become easier
Recognise the mathematical structure behind unfamiliar questions
Connect calculus, graphs, trigonometry and mechanics
Improve complete written solutions, timing and checking
A-Level Maths tutoring should not become passive instruction. I provide structure and scaffolding, show how ideas connect and model efficient problem-solving principles. Guided practice then gives way to work the student completes independently, because real fluency only develops through doing mathematics.
Lessons are taught live online using a graphical tablet. The written working is shared as a PDF afterwards, giving the student a clear record to revisit.
Formula recall is useful only when a student can identify why a formula applies. We practise reading a question for its structure, choosing a method and checking whether the result makes sense.
For ambitious students, lessons can also look beyond the immediate mark scheme. Seeing where an idea leads often makes the syllabus itself more coherent and supports preparation for Further Maths, TMUA or a mathematics-heavy degree.

I hold a PhD in theoretical physics and have more than ten years’ experience tutoring mathematics and physics from school through university level.
Students work directly with me in every lesson. My focus is on understanding, careful reasoning and the confidence to tackle unfamiliar problems independently.
I am keen for him to work with you as I can see you are brilliant at what you do.Parent of a student
Frequently asked questions
Questions about a-level maths tuition.
Which A-Level Maths exam boards do you cover?+
I support AQA, Edexcel, OCR and Cambridge students, tailoring examples, notation and exam practice to the relevant course.
Can tuition cover pure and applied maths?+
Yes. Lessons can move across pure mathematics, statistics and mechanics or concentrate on one component.
Do you work with students with dyslexia or dyscalculia?+
Yes. I have experience tutoring students with dyslexia and dyscalculia, although I do not hold a specialist qualification in learning difficulties. Lessons can use clearer visual structure, slower sequencing, repeated reinforcement and alternative explanations. Where appropriate, tutoring may be complemented by a formal assessment from a qualified professional. Tutoring itself is not a diagnostic service.
Can you guarantee a top grade?+
No tutor can responsibly guarantee a particular grade. My role is to help students perform as close to their potential as possible by improving understanding, problem-solving, exam technique and confidence. That also requires active effort from the student; attending lessons alone is not enough.
Do tutoring sessions replace independent study?+
No. Tutoring works best alongside independent practice. As a rough guideline, one hour of tutoring should usually be accompanied by around one hour of independent work, although this varies by student and stage of preparation. Understanding an explanation is only the first step; fluency develops by solving problems independently.
If I still need to study independently, what is the purpose of tutoring?+
Tutoring makes independent learning more effective. It provides structure and scaffolding, identifies gaps, connects new ideas to existing knowledge and shows which principles matter most. Lessons also develop problem-solving habits, help students recognise what questions are asking and avoid common dead ends. Independent work then turns that understanding into fluency.
Can you help students aiming for mathematics at university?+
Yes. We can strengthen the algebra, modelling and problem-solving that university study will rely on and, where relevant, connect this work with Further Maths or TMUA preparation.
