Frequently Asked Questions

Are TutorLab tutors DBS checked?

Can I get a tutor for the new 2026 GCSE maths specification?

They specialise in the new content that carries 60% of marks at higher tier, including the increased focus on problem-solving and modelling. Tutors provide structured lesson notes aligned to AQA, OCR and Edexcel exam board requirements. Many also mark past papers to ensure students are exam-ready.

How are lessons structured on TutorLab?

Tutors using TutorLab send structured lesson notes, highlighting key concepts covered and areas for improvement. Parents receive progress reports showing topics mastered and next steps.

Do tutors provide homework after each session?

In-person sessions allow for physical demonstration of mathematical concepts and immediate feedback on written work.
