Taiwo O, online A Level Maths, Further Maths & Physics Tutor
Taiwo O

I’m Taiwo, a tutor with ten years of teaching and tutoring experience and a B.Sc. in Electronic and Electrical Engineering from Obafemi Awolowo University. I teach A-level, GCSE and IGCSE students, bringing together subject knowledge, classroom experience and a patient, practical approach to learning.

My subjects include Mathematics, Further Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, English Language and Computer Science. My current GCSE teaching includes AQA Mathematics at Foundation and Higher levels and AQA English Language. My engineering background strengthens my teaching of Mathematics and Physics, while my professional software development experience allows me to connect computing concepts with practical applications.

I plan lessons around what each student needs. Some need to rebuild foundations; others understand the content but struggle to apply it in unfamiliar exam questions. I identify those gaps, explain ideas clearly and guide students towards solving problems independently. In Mathematics, that means understanding why a method works and recognising when to use it. In Science, it means connecting concepts, calculations and experimental evidence. In English, it means moving beyond identifying techniques to developing thoughtful analysis supported by precise examples.

Students can expect structured lessons, personalised homework and detailed feedback. I use past papers and mark schemes to help them understand what questions demand, improve the clarity of their answers and develop effective revision habits. I track difficulties across lessons so that we revisit what needs attention rather than simply move through topics.

I currently work with international learners, including students in the UK and Hong Kong, and understand the importance of adapting explanations to different educational and language backgrounds. I want students to feel comfortable asking questions, willing to attempt challenging work and able to recognise their own progress. My aim is to build secure understanding, greater independence and confident exam preparation.

Why A-Level Pure Mathematics needs the right tutor

What makes A-Level Pure Mathematics hard

A-Levels move faster and go deeper than anything students have done before, and they are studied alongside two or three other subjects at the same level. Classes are taught to the middle of the room, so gaps are easy to carry forward unnoticed until the exam.

  • A sharp step up in difficulty from GCSE
  • Marks decided by technique, not recall
  • Grades that determine university options

How tutoring changes the outcome

One-to-one tutoring targets the two things a classroom cannot: exam technique and the specific topics a student keeps getting wrong. A tutor marks work the way an examiner would, shows where the marks went, and then drills those areas until they hold. Confidence follows from that, not the other way round.

  • Exam technique built on real past papers
  • Targeted work on areas of weakness
  • Confidence going into the exam

What you'll learn in A-Level Pure Mathematics tutoring

Core skills developed

Edexcel International assesses Pure Mathematics against five assessment objectives. Recalling and using mathematical knowledge and techniques, and constructing rigorous arguments and proofs, each carry at least 30%. Smaller shares go to modelling, interpreting mathematics in context and reading longer arguments, and using a calculator accurately and appropriately. In the pure and further pure units, recall and rigorous argument carry most of the marks. We work through past-paper questions objective by objective, so you can see which skill is costing you marks.

  • Algebra, functions and curve sketching
  • Differentiation and integration, including differential equations
  • Proof and rigorous mathematical argument
  • Complex numbers, matrices and series from the further pure units
  • Accurate calculator use, with answers in the form and accuracy required

How are students assessed

Pure Mathematics is assessed entirely by written exams, with no coursework, and a calculator is allowed in every unit. On Edexcel International it is taken as six separate units sat across the January, June and October series. You can bank the AS units first and resit any unit to improve the grade.

  • Structured technique questions: we drill core methods against real past papers and mark schemes
  • Proofs and longer problems: we practise writing every step so method marks are secured
  • Further pure units: we introduce complex numbers, matrices and series early so they are secure before the exam

What A-Level Pure Mathematics topics do we cover?

IAL A-Level

Six units, each a 1 hour 30 minute, 75-mark paper worth 16⅔% of the IAL. P1, P2 and FP1 make up the International Advanced Subsidiary in Pure Mathematics. P3, P4 and either FP2 or FP3 complete the IAL. The P units are offered in January, June and October, and the FP units in January and June. Any unit can be resat to improve the grade.

International AS

  • P1: Pure Mathematics 1
  • P2: Pure Mathematics 2
  • FP1: Further Pure Mathematics 1

International A2

  • P3: Pure Mathematics 3
  • P4: Pure Mathematics 4
  • FP2: Further Pure Mathematics 2, or FP3: Further Pure Mathematics 3

Edexcel IAL Pure Mathematics uses the same units as IAL Mathematics and Further Mathematics, but it cannot be awarded in the same series as IAL Mathematics, and units used for one cannot be reused for the other. The A* needs an overall A plus at least 270 of the 300 uniform marks on the A2 units. Sessions on this board plan the unit route with you and push performance in P3, P4 and the second further pure unit.

FAQs

We have answers to your most frequently asked questions. Anything not answered here, please reach out to our team.

How much does A-Level Pure Mathematics tutoring cost?

An academic tutor for A-Level Pure Mathematics costs from $60 USD (£45) per hour. Packages save 5 to 15%, or pay as you go, invoiced after each lesson, with no lock-in contracts. Unit-by-unit planning included. Professional tutors (qualified teachers and examiners) cost from $85 USD (£64) per hour.

Late cancellations and no-shows are charged at half the lesson fee. That applies if you cancel less than one hour before the start time, or don't turn up. You can still change a session time whenever you need to, as long as you give your tutor notice.

Who are your A-Level Pure Mathematics tutors?

Our academic tutors achieved an A* or A in A-Level or International A Level Mathematics, many with Further Mathematics too, and our professional tutors are qualified teachers or examiners with 5+ years' experience. Only the top 5% of applicants are accepted. Your tutor will know Pearson's International A Level units, including the further pure content on complex numbers and matrices that many students first meet in FP1. Meet our tutors or read how we select tutors.

How does A-Level Pure Mathematics tutoring work?

Lessons are one-to-one and online, with a tutor matched to Pearson Edexcel International, your target grade and the units you are sitting next. We use Pearson past paper questions and mark schemes for each unit, from P1 to FP3, so solutions are laid out the way method and accuracy marks are awarded. We also help plan which units to sit in which series. Read how it works or apply for a tutor.

Is A-Level Pure Mathematics hard?

It is demanding because every unit is pure mathematics, with no applied papers to balance out a weakness in algebra or calculus. Long questions punish an early slip that carries through, and proof and "show that" questions reward each written step rather than the final answer. The further pure units also bring complex numbers, matrices and series with no GCSE equivalent. Our online A-Level tutoring introduces those topics early.

How hard is it to get an A* in A-Level Pure Mathematics?

JCQ does not publish results for Pure Mathematics, because it is an international qualification outside JCQ's UK A-Level figures. The A* is decided largely by the A2 units: on top of an overall A, you need at least 270 of the 300 uniform marks available there. That leaves very little room for slips in P3, P4 and your second further pure unit, so accuracy and complete working matter as much as knowing the methods. See Pearson's IAL results guide.

What are the grade boundaries for A-Level Pure Mathematics?

Pearson sets raw-mark boundaries for each unit after every series, and they change each time. Your overall grade is then worked out in uniform marks (UMS): an A needs at least 480 of the 600 available (80%). An A* is awarded for an overall A plus at least 270 of the 300 uniform marks on the International A2 units, so there is no single A* mark to quote. See Pearson's June 2026 IAL grade boundaries.

Does A-Level Pure Mathematics have coursework or a practical endorsement?

No. Pure Mathematics has no coursework and no practical endorsement: all six units are written exams, and calculators may be used in each one. Because there are no statistics or mechanics units, every mark depends on algebra, calculus, proof and further pure topics such as complex numbers, matrices and series. See Pearson's specification page for the unit content.

How is A-Level Pure Mathematics assessed?

Pure Mathematics is a Pearson Edexcel International A Level, assessed entirely by written exams across six units. Each unit is a 1 hour 30 minute, 75-mark paper worth 16⅔% of the qualification. P1, P2 and FP1 make up the International AS, and P3, P4 and either FP2 or FP3 complete the full A Level. The P units are offered in January, June and October, and the FP units in January and June, so units can be spread across series. See the official Pearson specification page.
