Concept project A tutoring site written for the parent, not the pupil. Back to work

GCSE & A-level · Wimbledon & online

Confidence before the exam, not after it

GCSE and A-level maths tuition in Wimbledon or online. Most of my students arrive convinced they are bad at maths. Almost none of them are.

£40/hour, no package required

Foundation and higher, all boards. Past papers marked with the examiner’s mark scheme, not a vague tick.

Pure, mechanics and statistics, including the step up from GCSE that catches most students out.

Wimbledon on weekday evenings, online any time. Same price either way.

I’m James, and I used to hate maths too

Twelve years teaching, seven of them as head of maths at a comprehensive in south London. DBS checked, references from parents available on request.

The first lesson is free because you should not have to pay to find out whether your child gets on with someone.

Paid monthly, after the lessons have happened. There’s no package to buy up front.

Single lesson

£40 per hour

Online or in person, weekday evenings and Saturdays.
Exam season

£150 five lessons

In the run-up to mocks or finals, on the topics that need it most.
Small group

£25 each, per hour

Up to three students, for siblings or friends in the same year.

A free trial lesson

An hour on whatever is worrying them most, so they leave with one thing that finally makes sense.
A short plan for you

An email afterwards: where they are, what to work on first, and how many lessons I’d suggest.
A note after every lesson

Two or three lines on what we covered and what to practise, so you’re never left guessing.

Online or in person: which is better?

For most students it makes no difference. Online works well at A-level; younger students often prefer to start in person.

What if my child doesn’t get on with you?

Then you’ve lost nothing. The first lesson is free so that you can find out.

Do you set homework?

A little: one set of past-paper questions a week, marked before the next lesson.

Which exam boards do you cover?

AQA, Edexcel and OCR, at GCSE and A-level.

I take twelve students at a time so that everyone gets marked work back the same week.
