How much does a Further Maths tutor cost in the UK?

A-Level Further Maths tutors in the UK typically charge between £42 and £75 per hour, at the very top of the academic tutoring rate range. Further Maths is only offered by a minority of schools and colleges, and the pool of tutors qualified to teach it well — particularly the more advanced modules — is genuinely small.

Further Maths extends well beyond standard A-Level Maths into Further Pure content (complex numbers, matrices, hyperbolic functions), plus additional applied modules that vary by exam board and school choice (Further Statistics, Further Mechanics, Decision Maths). A tutor needs to know exactly which optional modules your child's school has chosen, since these differ significantly between AQA, Edexcel, OCR A and OCR B (MEI).

Students taking Further Maths are almost always aiming for the most competitive university courses in Mathematics, Physics, Engineering or Computer Science, including Oxbridge. Tutors who are themselves Mathematics or Physics graduates from strong universities, particularly those with STEP or MAT admissions-test experience, are in high demand and charge accordingly.

Because Further Maths is cumulative across an already demanding standard Maths A-Level, starting tutoring early in Year 12 — rather than waiting for Year 13 exam pressure — consistently produces better outcomes. TutorLab Further Maths tutors publish their qualifications and rates on their profiles.
