Why should you get a maths tutor?

Maths is a subject that is relevant to academia, careers and life in general. Having a good understanding of it can lead to you attaining the courses that you want, the promotions that you are looking for and will be an important skill in your life.

For those still in school and having difficulty in the subject, getting a tutor makes a lot of sense as the classroom environment is often not helpful enough for those who need a little extra help as there is only one teacher whose attention is spread over the whole classroom. Whereas with a tutor you have one person whose sole attention is on you. This means they can give the exact help and support that you need. They can spend time going into detailed explanations of problem sets, corrections, tips and concepts. They can set you exercises to practice the exact things that you need to focus and improve upon.

Shyness is also another factor. Being in a class with a large number of people around you can make it intimidating to admit that you don’t understand or know something and so it becomes more difficult to ask questions which will hinder your learning and performance in the class. Getting rid of that factor by having only one other person with you will improve your performance in the subject and increase your own confidence.

Having all this extra attention and help could also result in you enjoying the subject more in class and having this extra knowledge and proficiency in the subject will allow you to, in the long run, spend more time on your other subjects and improve them, giving you the best grades that you can get.

Maths tutors for adults

For those looking to get back into education or looking to brush up on their maths skills, having someone guide you through exercises, provide advice and give personal and in-depth feedback is indispensable and will get you off to a great start!

Many of our tutors have gone through university or are currently still in it and due to the varied number of students and graduates, there will be a tutor who can inform you on what the maths is like in a particular course and help you practice relevant exercises.

If you aren’t planning on improving your maths knowledge in preparation for further education, our tutors who have graduated will be able to help you revise and get back up to speed for the maths that are required for your work and some may even be in the same field as you!

Exam help and preparation

Many of our tutors have gone through the Leaving and Junior cert which means that they have a good understanding of what it will be like, which means they will be in a very good position to help and advise you on what you should work on to do well in the exams. Since Cork also has some primary and secondary school teachers in its list of tutors, you have no shortage of people who will be able to give in-depth and helpful information as well as be able to correct and explain your maths exercises.

Having a good understanding of what the maths exams are like, can make your life less stressful and allow you to be more confident and prepared for when you have to take them. It will also help you to reach the points that you need and to allow you to follow the path that you want.
