Private tutoring

I offer one-to-one maths tutoring for GCSE, A-Level (all exam boards) and first- and second-year undergraduate study . Sessions run online, typically weekly for 1-2 hours, and I tailor them around exam boards, or just building confidence with a specific topic.

I spent four years with the online tutoring company MyTutor before moving to a self-sufficient, word-of-mouth basis; pricing is generally lower than agency rates, and sessions are shaped around what matters to a specific individual rather than a fixed curriculum.

Rates and availability

Currently taking on new students for the term. Please get in touch for current rates.

For enquiries, email samkay.tutoring[at]gmail.com with a quick note on the subject, level and what you’re looking for help with. Existing MyTutor bookings can still go through the platform.

“Sam was fantastic. He always pitched the work at just the right level to really stretch my daughter, guiding her through more complex problems without simply giving her the answers until she could solve them herself. Sessions were well-structured and appropriately challenging, and his tutoring played a big part in her achieving a fantastic GCSE grade.”

“Sam was very engaging and great at finding analogies and visualisations for concepts. He was clear in explaining solutions, with structured lesson plans and a strong emphasis on problem solving. I benefited massively from these sessions.”
