Joseph was a wonderful maths tutor for my son. He helped him prepare for his GCSE's explaining things in a way that my son understood and he came out with the result he wanted. Joseph was very polite and flexible if we needed to change our sessions, I would highly recommend. More...
Louise Hilton
Joseph was an amazing maths tutor for my daughter when she was studying for her GCSE's. He was very patient and explained things in a clear concise way. Her grade was averaging at a 5 (C) when Joseph began his tutoring. Her GCSE result was a 7 (A) and this was due to Joseph's excellent work. I would highly recommend. More...

Excellent tutor that I would recommend to anyone. Our son struggles academically and Joseph kept him motivated and engaged. Our son said that he 'got it' when Joseph explained and went though examples. More...

Joseph is such an amazing tutor I have learnt so much from him. I have not only improved my understanding in maths but I have also gained more confidence when it comes to asking questions.
Julie
We would highly recommend Joseph; he is an excellent Maths tutor and we feel very lucky to have found him! My daughter was struggling with revising for her GCSE maths and Joseph completely turned things around for her. He explained things so clearly and she started to really understand the work. She approached her exams with confidence and was delighted to get a much higher grade than she was predicted. More...

Joseph is an excellent maths tutor who takes great care to explain things in a clear, calm way. He is very thorough and makes sure that his students understand the topics. He listens carefully to his students and adapts his methods to them. He has taught both my children over the past year and a half, working on A levels and GCSEs with them. I recommend him wholeheartedly. More...

I would recommend Joseph to anyone who is looking for a maths tutor. He is patient and calm and his knowledge of maths is superb. After having several lessons with Joseph I now actually enjoy maths and understand it in a way I never have before. His lessons were always well organised. He is an excellent maths tutor. More...
Caroline
Joseph has been tutoring my son for a couple of years now and I can't fault him. My son, who often struggles with maths, now feels far more confident in this subject and feels he has made a lot of progress, thanks to Joseph's calm approach and methods practised in lessons.
Ivan
I started tutoring with Joseph a couple of months before my GCSEs in 2019 because I was struggling quite a bit in Maths at school, although I was in the highest set, I wouldn't say I was naturally good at Maths, I am a slow learner and with the pace of the class, I would always fall behind in terms of understanding topics and certain Mathematical concepts.
Having the one to one tuition was great with Joseph, he has multiple ways of explaining topics that I would have never come across in the classroom, he is always prepared for the tuition, he is really nice and listens really well to the issues I have on certain topics. Without his help, I don't think I would have done as well as I did on my GCSEs and I'd imagine my teachers were very surprised. He is currently helping me a lot with A-level Maths and it is going really well.
I would 100% recommend him if you are struggling with Maths or if you have a son or daughter who is. Honestly, I wouldn't be in such a good position in terms of Maths without him.

Rachel Wilkinson
Joseph has been a brilliant tutor. He's extremely patient and easily built up a great rapport with our son. He very quickly identified the areas he needed to work on and explained everything in a way that he was able to understand. Before working with Joseph, our son had been falling behind and had generally lost confidence with Maths. After working with Joseph, he is now back to working at a high level with a high predicted grade for GCSE. Joseph is extremely knowledgeable and we cannot recommend him highly enough. More...
What do you love most about your job?
I most love being able to teach in a one-to-one setting, letting me devote my time completely to an individual's specific needs. Normal teaching in a class of many students means that usually I cannot do this, not having the necessary time to address an individual's problems fully.
In one-to-one maths tutoring I can understand where the student is coming from and how they think, as well as the methods that are most likely to work for them. I find it very satisfying to contribute to this improvement.
What inspired you to start your own business?
I enjoy being in control of my own job. I find that I am self-driven and I have no problem with motivation, always striving to do the best I can, and in this case in helping students get the best out of themselves.
I also very much like the freedom that I get from working like this.
Why should our clients choose you?
I prepare extremely thoroughly for each student. I think about how I can get the best out of each individual based on their strengths and weaknesses in maths, as well as their particular ways of working. And then I plan each session accordingly, having also considered what was completed in the last session, but also what may have been done in school/college (if applicable)
I also believe I'm very patient and sympathetic to the different struggles the student may face. I believe this is important to help them feel comfortable in the sessions and to gain confidence in their maths skills.
Can you provide your services online or remotely? If so, please add details.
I try to keep tutoring in-person as much as possible because it is so much less efficient when done online - so much less good-quality work is done through online sessions unfortuantely. But online tutoring can be discussed where necessary.
What changes have you made to keep your customers safe from Covid-19?
When tutoring in-person I will wear a mask if desired. I clean items that I will use (such as stationary) before I start sessions on a morning/afternoon.
