I have over 15 years experience in Teaching, and over 12 years experience in Private Tutoring. I currently offer both face-to-face in person tutoring for 1:1 or small groups. I cater for each child's specific needs through appropriate differentiation, and according to their individual interests. I strive to make the learning fun and engaging, and adapt the lesson as we go to ensure the most enjoyment and motivation. My lessons are usually 1 hour long, depending on the needs and abilities of the child and I cover the ages from KS1 up to GCSE in both English and Maths. I also offer home schooling sessions to individuals who are unable to access the mainstream education system, whether it be from a SEND need, a preference or from anxiety, for example. These sessions cover the Core subjects as well as teaching Life Skills such as cooking, woodwork and sewing etc. In addition to this, I offer discrete tutoring for adults in Maths and English (Reading).
Hi, I’m Tobias – a teacher and homeschooling specialist based in London with nearly 15 years of experience. Over the years, I’ve had the privilege of helping students from all backgrounds and abilities achieve their goals. With a 100% pass rate in Maths and Science, I’m confident in my ability to guide your child to success. But more than just helping with grades, I’m passionate about building confidence, sparking curiosity, and encouraging a love of learning that lasts beyond the classroom.
I specialize in working with students who face unique challenges, including those with Autism, ADHD, dyslexia, dyscalculia, and Asperger’s. I understand that every student learns differently, and I pride myself on being able to adapt my approach to suit their individual needs.

I work closely with parents to ensure we create a nurturing environment where your child can thrive at their own pace. If you're looking for a dedicated and caring tutor who will be there every step of the way, I’d love to help your child take that first step towards success.

So you want some additional tuition for your primary-aged child – great!
But what things are important to you in choosing the right tutor for your child?
You could hire a local University student cheaply…surely, they will know and be able to teach your child what they need, right? After all, they passed their A Levels recently, so they are ‘in touch’ with school life and what children need….aren’t they?
Or do you consider any of the following as the minimum?
Teaching Qualifications?
Actual recent or current experience as a teacher?
Knowledge of the National Curriculum?
Enhanced DBS check?
Well, a qualified teacher is a step in the right direction for sure. The curriculum knowledge a qualified teacher can bring can be priceless in supporting your child towards their academic goals.
What is the Top Tutor 4 U difference then?
1. I have 25 years’ experience in the teaching profession as Teacher, Deputy Head, Headteacher and returning to current classroom teaching experience, as children’s development and education is my true passion.
2. I have been an established and well-regarded private tutor for 8 years, amassing many successful outcomes for primary pupils in SATs and GL/CEM 11+/Selection tests. My knowledge and experience of what works in regard to these assessments can guide you as a parent while nurturing your child’s skills in the strategies and techniques to give of their best in the test.
3. I have an NHS accredited counselling skills qualification and a keen interest in the coaching and motivational approach to learning. I know that any learning challenge is as much about mindset, anxiety management and test technique as it is about ‘ability’. Within my tuition, children are slowly and steadily encouraged to take more control of their own learning and mindset as they are supported to develop the skills to do so. This means that your investment in their learning will support them in the broadest sense by developing their work ethic and ability to drive through challenges throughout their school and working life.
4. I have personal and professional experience in working with children with a range of neurodiversities, including ASD/Autism, ADHD, Anxiety issues and Dyslexia. Although I cannot profess to have a specific qualification in any of these specific areas, my 25 years teaching experience has afforded me plenty of strategies to use to support the different needs of different students.
5. My skills and experience are Top Tutor 4 U’s greatest asset and I know that the development of a trusting, supportive rapport is all important in nurturing a learner’s confidence and willingness to take learning risks and make valuable mistakes. A one-size-fits-all computer programme like some faceless (sometimes not even teaching qualified) franchise owners use in the name of ‘tuition’ can never match the targeted and dynamic professional support I can provide.
Should I choose individual tuition or group tuition for my child?
There are benefits to both types of tuition, so it really depends on your child and how you feel they would work best. Top Tutor 4 U offers both types of tuition, to suit every need and preference.
Small group tuition (3-6 students) offers these benefits:
*A group dynamic means children share knowledge and ideas can learn from others’ mistakes and successes.
*A group approach can increase the confidence of more introverted students while supporting the naturally confident student in their preferred social context.
*Needing to articulate ideas so others can understand supports and consolidates learners’ own understanding over again. We say, “When you explain, you expand your brain!”
*Using a ‘hive mind’ and speaking and listening skills improves creativity when exploring a new challenge. This can feel less pressured than having to find the entire solution individually.
*Having the opportunity to use and develop interpersonal skills to work both independently and within a team is a skill which is highly valued by employers.
*A cost saving when compared to one-to-one individualized tuition.
Individual, one-to-one tuition offers these benefits:
*A personalized and tailored approach meaning learning is adjusted to meet the individual needs of the student
*Completely dedicated time to fill gaps from school that may positively impact immediately back at school or stretch and extend learning to give a child a ‘head start’ and therefore boost their confidence in the subject matter.
*Dedicated time to explore a question/question type in depth with support, before being asked to try independently.
*The rate of new learning is matched to the student’s particular needs, ensuring that they are pushing beyond their comfort zone, yet not into the stress zone.
*Bespoke resources can be used on an individual basis.
What happens when I contact you?
a) We schedule a 10-minute needs assessment meeting or phone call, where we can discuss your child’s needs, your aims for tuition for them and plan the best approach.
b) I evaluate availability of session times and/or group tuition focuses to suit your child’s need and we agree a way forward. I also send you information and helpful paperwork about Top Tutor 4 U.
c) Your child attends a ‘Pay as you go’ initial session at an agreed date and time to establish that Top Tutor 4 U tuition is the right match for your child.
d) If you and your child are content to work with me, a bank transfer is made in advance for the half term to secure your child’s space in a group or individual session, (just as you do for many other extra-curricular activities).
The choice is yours!
You could choose any number of ways or a franchise (which may not even be run by a qualified teacher) to provide private tuition for your child.
However, if you are interested in finding out how my experience and expertise can best meet your child’s needs, do drop me a message to arrange your 10-minute needs assessment call. It will be my pleasure to formulate a plan with you to enhance your child’s future.
I can’t wait to help your child on their learning journey!

I currently work as a Maths Teacher at a local secondary school so am available for the next year to teach up to A level Maths. I am very flexible with hours and can tailor my teaching to the specific needs of each student. I am friendly and enthusiastic about these subjects, and I look forward to seeing the students achieve.
I have experience in one-to-one tuition as well as experience in the classroom.
I believe effective tuition requires one to tailor the style of approach to the specific needs of the tutee. Everyone is different, so it`s a matter for the tutor to identify just how the student would be most receptive to the information being imparted. Whether it`s a matter of building confidence in the subject, or approaching a certain concept from a different angle, I believe that one should tailor the method of teaching to the specific needs of the one being taught.
I am a Heads of Mathematics at an independent secondary boarding and day school in Kent who has a strong focus on integrating technology into the classroom given my background in Computer Science and Mathematics. I have recently finished my MEd at Cambridge University which gave me further tools to best support the students in my classroom and have been tutoring students up to A level in Mathematics and Further Mathematics (Edexcel, IGCSE, Level 2 Further Maths, etc) for the last 6 years.
I have over 15 years teaching experience both in and outside the UK. With my experience and strong curriculum knowledge, I provide sound guidance to students on basic and advanced dimensions of mathematics. I help my stundents to overcome the obstacles of dealing with maths problems and the frustration that usually arise from the inability to understand and successfully apply mathematics principles.
My main focus is to develop my students problem solving, reasoning and fluent skills in order to reap success at any level whilst creating an enriched environment that is conducive to support, stretched and challenge all learners. This is a testament to my approach as fulltime Maths teacher as all my students are very likely to progress beyond his/her targets.

Phonics and Maths lessons in Westerham, UK.
An enthusiastic and experienced KS2, KS3 and KS4 maths teacher with a solid academic experience, offers maths lesson. First lesson free!
My studies and work experience, both in Italy and in the UK, equipped me with a solid subject knowledge in Mathematics and sciences and how to teach them effectively.
After 6 years of teaching experience (incuding online live lessons) in national schools and colleges, I am keen on implementing my career and developing a successful career as Maths online tutor.
In my recent experience, I have been tutoring a group of pupils since year 7 pupils preparing actions plans and individual teaching plans when required, arranged sessions for the UKMT Maths challenge, wrote references to colleges for year 11 pupils, arranged maths intervention to contribute to raise department achievements and was involved in schools’ extra curricula sport and music events.
My educational philosophy encompasses a series of key points as follows:
1) Students need to learn as much as they need food, clothing and shelter. An educator’s job is to fill that primal need for learning by creating engaging and relevant learning experiences every day.
2) Teachers should treat students as active participants in the learning process.
3) Be strongly aligned with student-centred learning involving exploration, discovery, experiential learning, and the production of high quality work.
4) Students need oral and written feedback to improve. Teachers need to gather data on student performance to adjust the learning environment and instruction so that they can target students' learning needs. Teachers administer pre-tests to find a starting point for learning and post-tests to determine the students' increase in performance level as well as the teachers' effectiveness.
5) Students need structure and appropriate repetition to learn. A teacher should be able to organize a standards-based lesson sequence, successfully implement the plan, and then evaluate student learning.
6) Be able to create an exciting learning environment that makes it difficult for students not to learn. A teacher should know how to include all students in learning at their own level, and a teacher should be able to inspire the students to push themselves to the next level.
7) Students need tools and resources. They should have skills and strategies to be able to work effectively in the different levels of the cognitive domain as defined by Benjamin Bloom. Students should also be aware of their own learning preferences, and teachers should assist with creating a plan to develop other learning skills.
8) A teacher has to be prepared to adopt multiple roles in the classroom (facilitator, teacher, instructor, coach, consultant, counsellor, and mentor) as well as a proper use of the Teaching Assistant.
9) Being genuine and modelling trust can significantly help establish a successful learning environment and maintain a collaborative climate in the classroom.
10) A good teacher needs an excellent subject knowledge and a high willingness to push himself to a higher confidence.
I am a fully qualified teacher and I previously taught in secondary schools in Brighton. For the last ten years I've worked solely as a full time tutor. I do tuition in schools, for local authority agencies and I also do private tuition. As I work solely as a maths tutor I have refined my teaching style, resources and approach over the years to provide a service that always gets positive feedback.
My aim as a tutor is firstly to re-engage my tutees so they gain confidence and a level of understanding that will help them to succeed in class at school. I feel that is important as they will see their class teacher a lot more than they will me.
On my first lesson I always give each student a folder filled with printed resources and an exercise book for us to work in. I also recommend the best websites and apps for them to use (there are so many it is hard to know which are any good). I can also share resources and exam papers electronically with my students and parents.
I have a great deal of experience as a tutor. I have been working at one of the UK's leading Grammar Schools for the past four years. I tutor maths GCSE and A level online. I have also conducted numerous online webinars/ webclasses and drop-in sessions for students across the country for A Level maths. I love to make maths engaging. My instagram and YouTube accounts (Mark-a-minute maths) has had a wide following from students and I consistently post short 1 minute videos for students to get snappy, bitesize reviews of topics and model answers to exam questions.
I am a very dedicated and determined teacher who believes in spending time with pupils to help them understand the subjects they are learning. I am qualified, friendly and experienced teacher dedicated to student learning.
I feel that I am able to connect with pupils through my friendly and personable nature. I love teaching and have the determination to provide the best possible education to my students. I am flexible, patient, and understanding. I am extremely keen to explore creativity within the curriculum, and am committed to high expectation and achievement whilst looking to make learning more accessible and fun.
I am keen to be assigned to a position that will help me build up on my skills and grow as a professional in order to make me the best teacher that I am able to be.
