Feedback on the Maths tutors we work with
"Just to drop you a line now that exam has come to an end. May I say that regardless of the outcome, I found your contribution to my son’s preparation very significant. I cannot judge how your help and mentoring has impacted his marks, but I did find my son so much more confident this time, certainly compared to his preparation last year. So, thank you very much for the help. He definitely appreciated, which coming from such a stubborn, capable and confident person, must be taken as a Big Thank you from our side"

How our STEP Maths tutoring works
The STEP Maths tutors we work with can help your child in preparing for this vital exam in a number of ways. They can guide your child through sample papers and questions, providing feedback and improving exam technique, and going over worked answers from past papers. They can check that your child has no gaps in their knowledge of the relevant areas of mathematics, to give them the best chance of being able to deal with the breadth of the topics in the examination. They will also be able to help your child build their confidence in approaching this challenging exam, enabling them to perform to the best of their ability.
All tutoring is tailored to the individual needs of each child based on their strengths, weaknesses, learning style and the entrance procedures of the course they are applying to.

STEP stands for Sixth Term Examination Paper and is a collection of three exams (STEP 1, 2 and 3) which traditionally are used in conditional offers by Cambridge to determine if you get accepted for Maths or Maths-related degrees. Other universities, like Warwick and Imperial, use STEP in some of their Maths offers. You sit these papers in the Summer alongside your other exams like A-Levels, IB and Pre-U. The grades you can get in STEP, from best to worst, are S, 1, 2, 3, U.
The papers are designed to assess how students perform when handling similar questions to those they will be tackling at undergraduate level, and as such require a high level of mathematical ability, perseverance, and insight.
Yes. Our STEP Maths tutors are able to deliver in-person tuition in London. For those outside of central London we offer online tutoring.
The STEP Maths tutors we represent are well versed in delivering online tuition, using videoconferencing and an interactive whiteboard. This gives students, wherever they are in the world, access to experienced, high quality tutors who are familiar with the requirements of the admissions tests and Maths interviews.
We have a monthly reporting system which is used to update parents on an ongoing basis. The monthly report details:
- the focus of that month’s tutoring
- the form of assessment used
- the student's achievements and areas for further work
- the focus for the coming month
The regular, rigorous reporting of the tutors we represent is frequently commended by parents.

Guide to A Level Maths and Further Maths
Should I take Maths for A Level? Mathematics has been the most popular A Level choice for some time now. This is due to Maths being a highly applicable subject in a range of professions, and is often a requirement for some university degrees. While it is a popular choice, it is also a challenging subject that will require a lot of work to get top marks.
