Expert online tuition for TMUA, STEP, Cambridge mathematics interviews, A Level and Further Mathematics, led by a Cambridge mathematics graduate with direct experience of examining, assessment design and university admissions.
Tuition is tailored to the student, from strengthening core mathematical knowledge to preparing for the most demanding university admissions assessments.
Develop speed, precision and mathematical fluency through carefully selected multiple-choice problems, targeted feedback and exam technique informed by direct experience reviewing and vetting TMUA and ESAT questions.
Admissions test preparation View TMUA preparationLearn how to approach unfamiliar problems, structure complete mathematical arguments and communicate solutions clearly. Preparation is informed by direct experience of examining STEP scripts.
Examiner-led tuition View STEP preparationRealistic mock interviews followed by detailed feedback, discussion and tailored exercises. Sessions develop both mathematical problem solving and the ability to explain ideas clearly while thinking aloud.
Mock interviews and feedback View interview preparationIndividual support for students working towards their target grades, as well as students who want to move beyond the school syllabus and develop stronger mathematical intuition and problem-solving skills.
Ongoing academic support View tuition options“Students become stronger problem solvers by encountering many different types of problem, receiving carefully judged hints and understanding exactly what makes each problem challenging.”
My aim is not simply to demonstrate solutions. Students are encouraged to explore problems independently, persist when an approach does not immediately work and develop a toolkit that allows them to become unstuck.
For admissions tests, problem solving and interviews, students are normally given carefully selected material to work on before and after sessions. Their attempts provide the starting point for discussion, allowing lessons to focus on the ideas and decisions that matter most.
Advice is informed by direct involvement in the assessments and admissions processes for which students are preparing.
Direct experience assessing STEP solutions and understanding how clarity, accuracy and mathematical reasoning are rewarded.

Teaching was very good. Some questions were quite difficult, but Arij was very good at explaining things.STEP Summer School student
The questions were difficult, but Arij helped me work through them so I could maintain a level of independent learning.STEP student
Thank you for all of your help with the STEP preparation. Every lesson was extremely useful, and I am very grateful for all the work you put in outside of just the lessons, marking my work as well as giving me lots of guidance throughout.STEP student
Sessions are delivered online, allowing students in the UK, China and elsewhere to access the same specialist support. Materials can be shared before and after lessons to support structured independent preparation.
A consultation call or video chat is available at no charge. This provides an opportunity to discuss the student's goals, current preparation and the most suitable form of tuition.
