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 I start National 5 maths tuition?
It’s never too early to get started—especially if there are areas you find challenging.
Our National 5 programme is designed for students from S3 onwards, offering tailored support and resources aligned to your exam board. For younger students, we offer maths and English programmes that build strong foundations ahead of National 5.
Do you offer homework support?
Yes! If your child is struggling with a particular homework topic, our tutors will revisit the topic and explain it in a way that helps them feel confident completing it independently.
Are Explore Learning’s National 5 maths tutors qualified teachers?
Our tutors aren’t qualified school teachers—but they are professional educators, employed and trained by Explore Learning. Many come from top UK universities and have a strong background in maths. They’re passionate, relatable, and excellent role models who know how to explain tricky concepts in a way that clicks with teens.
How do online lessons work?
Your teen will connect with their tutor via a live video call. Both the tutor and student can access the same interactive learning resources, working side by side on the screen. Tutors can spot when a student is struggling and offer direct, timely support to boost confidence and understanding.
How can I revise for my National 5 maths exam?
Revision can feel overwhelming, but you don’t have to do it alone.
Our tutors will share proven revision strategies and help you build a realistic, structured plan. Together, you’ll stay on track each week, focusing on the topics that need the most attention.
