About Martin
- What kind of experience do you have?
I started tutoring my own children plus those of friends and work colleagues. The comments and results were all positive hence I decided to 'branch out' and advertise my tutoring services to the big wide world. It was a scary thing at the time but it's one of the most rewarding things I've ever done and thoroughly enjoy it. I currently have 12 students that I see once a week (some from tutoring websites and the others via referrals) but will do my best to help others if possible.
- Do you have an up-to-date DBS (Disclosure & Barring Service, formerly CRB) Certificate?
No certificate. I'm currently a Software Engineer for a Broking Software company and hence don't require one for my day job.
- Where and with whom did you train?
Just through my own experience from tutoring my own (and others') children, followed by students and adults from tutoring websites.
- Tell me about some of your current students.
All students are studying for their GCSE exams, aged between 12 and 16. My availability is:
Wednesdays: 6:30
Fridays: 6:30
Saturdays: Morning

I am married and live in Marlow with two children, attending Sir William Borlase and Great Marlow. Maths tutoring started with my own children and has paid off handsomely with the results they have achieved.
- Which subject(s) do you teach?
Mathematics at all academic levels, including certain Level 1 & 2 Open University Degree modules.
- Tell me about your qualifications.
BSC Bachelor of Science Open
OU Certificate In Mathematics
Diploma Computer Studies
- How much do you charge?
£45 per hour and the fee includes my travel to and from the student's home (barring extreme distances). My sessions have always been one-to-one hence I've never had to offer a group discount but I'd be open to the idea.
- Where do you teach?
I teach in the student's home - I think it's a much better environment in which the student can concentrate. I cover a 8 mile radius of Marlow so that stretches to Maidenhead, High Wycombe, Loudwater, Beaconsfield and the towns between.
- When are you available?
I work 9-5 on weekdays for my 'day' job hence my tutoring hours are 5:15 onwards on weekdays and any time at the weekend.
UPDATE 29-May-18
Exams are now in full swing and I'll be losing 7 students by the end of June hence several slots will become available then..
- Which ages and levels do you teach?
From 11+ to A level, from young person to adult. If the student is keen to learn then I'm very happy to tutor them.
- Which qualifications do you prepare your students for?
11+, GCSE (Foundation & Higher), IGCSE, A Level and certain degree modules from the Open University (all Mathematics).
- Describe your arrangements for online tutoring.
I haven't gone down the route of on-line tutoring. My personal preference is one-to-one however who knows in the future !
- Do you have a personal message for students?
Don't be scared of Mathematics, it's just like riding a bike - the more you practice it, the easier it gets.

I used Martin for a few weeks to boost my confidence before taking an RAF aptitude test. I found him encouraging, knowledgeable and very patient. Most importantly I passed the test and I am really glad I used Martin!!
Martin's visit was most beneficial, restoring my sons confidence in C2 Maths. We will be seeing him again. Highly recommend his services.
Martin has been tutoring my son for approximately 5 months to help him gain his required grades in his GCSE Maths. In a recent mock exam his percentage score had risen considerably proving how valuable Martin's tutoring is. He is very reliable, punctual and flexible when required. My son gets on well with him as he is very patient and understanding. My son was never comfortable with raising questions in the classroom and finds working with Martin a lot more comfortable.
My daughter was lacking confidence in her abilities in maths so the task was to rebuild her confidence and improve the maths. I can honestly say that she enjoyed the sessions as Martin is easy to get on with and identified well with her and took the sessions at her pace. She entered her exams without the panic we had with mocks. I would thoroughly recommend him!
Just to say thanks for your help, I made it into flight school with 90% in the maths!
We have been very happy with Martin as our daughter's confidence has increased dramatically in Maths over the year he has been helping her. He has the ability to make difficult mathematical concepts easily digestible by teenagers! He is also a pleasure to work with. I highly recommend him for your children's tutoring needs.
10 out of 10! Martin`s calm and friendly manner and amazing Maths knowledge has been invaluable for our son who has just taken his GCSE Maths. Martin has been able to provide support for the entire extended curriculum for the new 9-1 GCSE and has helped our son make some fantastic progress. Highly recommended.
Martin has been tutoring my daughter in A level maths since September 2016. She got a C grade in her AS level and with Martin`s help and support she got an A in her A Level.
Martin is a great tutor, very friendly with lots of patience. I would very highly recommend him.View more recommendations
