Information about Alastair
I am a full-time A-Level and Further Maths tutor with over 7,500 one-to-one lessons delivered. My goal is straightforward: to help students achieve A and A* grades by focusing on clear explanations, exam technique, and targeted practice.
What sets me apart is that I can generate custom exam-style papers instantly. Using my large database of past questions, I create practice papers that focus precisely on the areas a student needs to improve. This means no wasted time and maximum progress.
AI tools cannot do this effectively. They give random questions with no understanding of exam boards, marking schemes, or individual weaknesses. I combine expert teaching with tailored resources and immediate feedback. Parents choose me because I provide the right practice at the right time, with guidance that no algorithm or casual tutor can offer.
I also offer ongoing support between lessons. If a student gets stuck, they can message me and I usually reply the same day, often within hours.
Availability: I teach all year round, including half-terms and school holidays. I also make additional time available in the weeks before exams. My schedule fills quickly during peak exam periods, so it is best to get in touch early to secure a regular slot.
Willing to travel: 50 miles
Experience: I have taught all strands of A-Level and Further Maths, including Pure, Mechanics, Statistics, and Decision. Students do not need multiple tutors.
I have more than six years of full-time tutoring experience and have worked with students of all abilities. I have supported students aiming to secure a pass as well as those targeting an A* for university entry. My examiner background means I understand exactly how marks are awarded and how to prepare students to perform under exam pressure.
