Tobias
Private Tutor in Maidstone
My Summary
About Me
Hello, my name is Tobias and I provide online tutoring in Maths and Science for secondary school students.
I mainly work with students at Key Stage 3 and GCSE level who want to strengthen their understanding, improve their confidence, and perform better in school assessments and exams.
Many students struggle with Maths and Science because topics are introduced quickly in class and gaps in understanding begin to build up over time. My approach is to break difficult concepts down into clear, manageable steps so that students can properly understand the foundations before moving forward.
Lessons are calm, structured, and tailored to the individual student. We focus on clear explanations, guided practice, and building the confidence needed to tackle challenging questions independently.
I support students studying:
Key Stage 3 Maths and Science
GCSE Maths
GCSE Combined Science
GCSE Physics, Chemistry, and Biology
All lessons are delivered online using interactive tools and shared whiteboards, which work extremely well for Maths and Science tutoring.
Please note that I provide academic tutoring only and do not offer babysitting or childcare services.
If you are looking for a patient and experienced tutor to help your child strengthen their understanding and confidence in Maths or Science, I would be happy to help.
My Experience
I have over 15 years of experience teaching and tutoring Maths and Science to secondary school students.
My background includes both classroom teaching and private one to one tutoring, supporting students across Key Stage 3 and GCSE.
Over the years I have worked with many students who initially felt stuck or lacked confidence in these subjects. By focusing on clear explanations and structured practice, students are able to gradually rebuild their understanding and approach the subject with much greater confidence.
I am very familiar with the GCSE curriculum and regularly support students studying the main exam boards including AQA, Edexcel, and OCR.
Alongside my teaching experience, I have spent many years working as a private tutor helping students strengthen the core skills needed for success in Maths and Science.
Much of my work focuses on:
building strong foundations at Key Stage 3
supporting GCSE preparation
helping students improve confidence and exam technique
Lessons are adapted to each student’s pace and learning style so that progress feels manageable and consistent.
My Qualifications
PGCE (Postgraduate Certificate in Education)
Qualified Teacher Status (QTS)
Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Science
A Levels in Maths, Physics, Chemistry and Biology
My Availability
I offer online tutoring sessions during weekday afternoons and evenings, as well as some availability at weekends.
Typical lesson times are between 4:00 pm and 8:30 pm on weekdays, which works well for students after school. I also occasionally have weekend availability depending on the week.
Because my timetable can change slightly from week to week, the best approach is to send a message with your preferred day and time and I will do my best to accommodate it.
All lessons are delivered online.
My Fees
- Tutoring from £35.00 per hour
My standard tutoring fee is typically between £35 and £40 per hour depending on the level and the specific support required.
Most lessons are one hour long and are delivered online using interactive tools that work very well for Maths and Science tutoring.
Sessions are tailored to the individual student and usually involve reviewing key topics, working through practice questions, and building confidence with problem solving.
If you would like to discuss your child’s needs or check availability, please feel free to send me a message and we can arrange a suitable time for lessons.

Tobias was brilliant with my son Joshua during his GCSE Computer Science year. He’s kind, patient, and really knows how to break things down in a way that makes sense. Joshua gained so much confidence and actually started to enjoy the subject—something I didn’t expect! We’re really grateful for Tobias’s support and would happily recommend him to other families.
