We've been with Explore Learning for about 6 months now and my daughter is growing in confidence with maths. She's always found maths tricky and previously got quite upset when she just couldn't get it. Her tutor takes time to really understand where she's struggling and helps her through so she doesn't panic or get upset anymore. As she's getting ready for her GCSEs the stakes are high and it's such a relief to feel that she's finally able to think about maths without worrying.

We can't say thank your enough for the support and top quality tuition we are receiving weekly over zoom on our 1:1 sessions. Our son who is in Year 9 really enjoys learning with friendly and experienced tutors from Explore learning. We definitely made the right decision to join Explore learning in preparation for GCSE’s. I would highly recommended Explore learning services to ensure that your child is following the national curriculum at the right level.
Parent
My sons grades have really improved and in his GCSE mocks he achieved an 8 in maths and 7/4 in English Language/Literature which is much improved from what he was getting. Not only that but his confidence has really improved and he loves going to the centre. Would recommend it to anyone. Keep up the fantastic work.
Yvonne Beardsy
I have had all 3 of my daughter's attend Explore learning. My kids spent around 6 years there. This is the best tutoring place available. My daughter's not only grew academically but the tutors/management helped them grow their confidence. My kids have gone on to achieve fantastic GCSE & A-level results, explore learning has definitely helped in achieving this. I can't recommend this place enough. If your child is struggling academically or lacking in confidence, I would definitely recommend.

FAQs
When should my teen start GCSE maths tuition?
It's never too early to start thinking about exam preparation. GCSE maths tuition can be helpful at any point during Years 9, 10, or 11. We support teens from Year 9 upwards with specialist guidance and advice for their specific exam board. Our tuition gives students time to build strong foundations and address gaps before topics become more complex. In Year 11, tuition is especially valuable for focused revision, mock exam preparation, and final GCSE exam techniques. Before GCSE level, we help younger students through our tailored maths and English programmes.
Are Explore Learning's GCSE maths tutors qualified teachers?
We pride ourselves on having professional GCSE maths tutors who are selected, employed and trained by us. This is a different skill set from being a qualified teacher. Many are from top UK universities and are passionate mathematicians with strong backgrounds in the subject. They are fantastic role models who can explain things in a relatable way to keep your teen motivated and on track with their learning. All tutors follow consistent quality standards and structured teaching methods to ensure every student receives reliable, high-quality GCSE maths support.
How do online lessons work?
Online GCSE maths sessions take place via live video calls with a dedicated tutor. Your teen and their tutor work together through topics in real time using shared learning resources, including GCSE revision materials and past papers. Sessions focus on key curriculum topics, problem-solving, and exam techniques. Tutors can see when students are starting to find something tricky and directly support them to build their confidence, knowledge and skills.
How can my teen revise for their GCSE maths exam?
Your teen isn't alone if they're finding GCSE maths revision difficult. Effective revision focuses on identifying weaker topics, practising exam-style questions, and improving exam technique. Our professional tutors will teach revision techniques and structured plans based on their current performance and exam board. This will strengthen their understanding, help them stay motivated and build good revision habits ahead of their final GCSE maths exams.
