A GCSE maths tutor
who stays

One-to-one GCSE maths from £11 a class, taught by the same teacher every week — inside our own classroom software, not a video call. Foundation and Higher tier, all three boards.

Start with a free class 55 minutes · no card required

One teacher, one student,
for the whole GCSE course

Every class is one teacher and one student for 55 minutes. Not a small group, and not a marketplace where the tutor changes between sessions.

Across two years of GCSE that continuity matters more than almost anything else — the teacher knows which topics your child quietly avoids, and returns to them rather than hoping they were understood.

1:1

Always one teacher to one student, and the same teacher every week. No group calls, no rotating tutors.

Three things that change a GCSE result.

i

Fix the
foundation first.

A student stuck on quadratics usually has an unresolved Key Stage 3 gap underneath. We find it in the first class and repair it, rather than teaching Year 11 harder.

ii

Method marks,
not just answers.

GCSE rewards working. Our classroom shows the teacher your child's method line by line as they write it, so a wrong approach gets corrected, not just a wrong number.

iii

Papers under
real conditions.

Once content is solid, classes move to timed past papers, then work backwards through the mark scheme so your child learns where marks actually sit.

Fifty-five minutes,
and none of it wasted

Every class follows the same shape, so your child always knows what is coming and the teacher never spends the first ten minutes working out where you left off.

A mistake left unexplained is just a habit waiting to form. We close the loop before the next paper.

Why the method matters
i
🔍

Pick up where it stopped

The teacher opens last class's work and last week's homework. No re-explaining, no lost time.

ii
✏️

Work it together

Teacher and student write on the same interactive worksheet, live. The working appears as it is thought, not after.

iii
📐

Try it alone

Your child works a problem unaided while the teacher watches the method form and steps in only where it goes wrong.

iv
📄

Homework that matches

Set from exactly what was taught, reviewed together next class. That review is where the learning actually lands.

The full GCSE maths specification, both tiers

We teach to the board your school uses, and to the tier your child is entered for.

Our own classroom,
not a video call

Most online tutoring is a video call plus a shared PDF. ClassArc built its own classroom instead.

Teacher and student open the same interactive worksheet and both write on it live. There is a shared whiteboard for working a problem through, and answers sync as they are typed — so the teacher sees the method as it forms, not a finished answer with no working.

Your child joins from a browser. Nothing to install, no meeting link to find.

For a subject where the method carries most of the marks, watching the working happen is the difference between correcting an answer and correcting an approach.

How much does a GCSE maths tutor cost?
Private maths tutoring in the UK generally costs £20 to £60 an hour for online maths tutoring. ClassArc starts at £11 a class on the Committed plan and £13 a class on Starter, for 55-minute one-to-one lessons with the same teacher each time.
Do you cover AQA, Edexcel and OCR?
Yes, all three, at both Foundation and Higher tier. Tell us the board and tier and we teach that specification, using that board's past papers for exam practice.
When should my child start GCSE tutoring?
Year 10 is ideal, because there is time to fix gaps from Key Stage 3 before they compound. Starting in Year 11 still works, but the balance shifts towards targeted repair and exam technique rather than teaching the course properly.
Can you help move a student from Foundation to Higher tier?
Sometimes, and we will tell you honestly whether it is realistic in the time available. Moving tiers means covering additional topics while consolidating existing ones, so it depends on how much time is left and how solid the foundation is.
Do you use Zoom?
No. ClassArc built its own classroom platform. Teacher and student share an interactive worksheet they both write on, plus a shared whiteboard and answers that sync live. Your child joins from a browser with nothing to install.
Is the first class free?
Yes, and no card is required. It is a real 55-minute lesson where the teacher works out where your child actually is, which for GCSE usually means finding the Key Stage 3 gaps sitting underneath the current topic.
Is online GCSE maths tutoring as good as in person?
For maths, yes. Method marks are what GCSE rewards, and our classroom shows the teacher your child's working line by line as they write it — which a tutor sitting beside them also sees, but a video call does not. No travel also means lessons can be more frequent in exam term.
Are maths tutors worth it for GCSE?
They are worth it when the problem is a specific gap rather than general effort. A student stuck on algebra usually has an unresolved Key Stage 3 topic underneath, and one-to-one time finds it in a way a class of thirty cannot. If your child is simply not doing the work, a tutor alone will not fix that.
How many hours of GCSE maths tutoring does my child need?
Two 55-minute classes a week through Years 10 and 11 is the usual pattern, moving to three in the months before the exam. Starting in Year 10 matters more than the hours per week — it leaves time to repair foundations before revision has to begin.
