1. How will I arrange the first session?
After accepting the tutor offered, the tutor will contact you within 24 hours to arrange a place and time for the first session to your mutual convenience.
2. Do I travel to the tutor or does the tutor travel to me?
The location for tuition is agreed between yourself and the tutor to your mutual convenience.
3. What should I expect from tuition?
You should expect that the tutor will have a thorough knowledge of the syllabus, be very skilled in Mathematics and capable of providing you with the support and encouragement to learn.
4. If I get a tutor am I guaranteed to pass my exams?
If you do the work and homework the tutor advises you are guaranteed to improve your mathematics skills. It is all down to how much work you put in what you get out of the tuition.
5. If the tutor is unsuitable what should I do?
In the unlikely event that the tutor is unsuitable you should inform us immediately by calling 0141 221 1481 or emailing administrator@mathminds.co.uk. All of our tutors are thoroughly vetted by checking their references, performing Enhanced Disclosure Scotland checks where required and meeting them in person to check their original credentials and suitability to tutor.
6. How much does tuition cost?
The price for tuition ranges between £18 - 27 depending on the level of tuition required. Please see our Level/Prices.
7. How do I pay?
You pay the tutor at the end of each session by cash (preferably) or cheque.
8. Do you provide a free trial?
No we do not provide free trials.
9. Do I require to book a block of tuition?
No, you can request a tutor for as little as one session if that is all that is required. However we would recommend more than one session to benefit from the tuition. The earlier you begin tuition the less frequently you will require tuition approaching the exam as you will already be well prepared.
10. What do I do to end tuition?
To end tuition inform the tutor of your intentions with at least one weeks notice. We will contact you in due course to identify the reason for the termination, to receive feedback regarding the service provided and to check if we can be of further service to you.
11. Where is the best place to conduct tuition?
In a quiet area at a well lit desk away from any distractions. Do not conduct tuition in the tutee's bedroom. Do not be an overbearing presence; being in the next room will be sufficient.
12. Do I have to stay in the room with my son/daughter during tuition?
No, we would recommend that you are not present in the same room during tuition, as it can be distracting; being in the next room will be sufficient.
