Maths tutoring for secondary school

Secondary maths is where the subject stops rewarding memory. Quadratics, then functions, trigonometry, derivatives and integrals, each leaning on the one before, so a fortnight lost in October surfaces in a mock in March. A tutor who is any good works backwards to whatever went missing instead of repeating the lesson the student already failed to follow. Some take an hour a week across the year, others come in for a block before a mock, a final or an entrance exam. Lessons run in person or over video depending on who you book. A free first session is standard and answers the only question worth asking at the start, which is whether this person explains in a way that lands.
