Hi! I'm Ivan

I’m a specialist maths teacher with more than 20 years of experience in the field. I work at an 11-18 school with one of the largest 6th forms in the area, successfully supporting thousands of students through their exams.

I am an online tutor, providing a range of educational levels including GCSE maths, A-Level and 11+.

Prior to teaching I spent 9 years in the army (Coldstream Guards, living next door to Buckingham Palace!)

I love to keep fit and am an avid gym user. When not at the gym, you can often find me walking my dog, Minty, on the South Downs.

Online Maths Tutor

My home maths tutoring services

All tutoring is delivered online at times that work for you.

One-to-One online tutoring

My goal is to provide classes around my students’ schedules, at a time that really works for the student. I offer evening, weekend and holiday lesson options. I am dedicated to helping my students get the grades they need and improve their ability.

Before school morning sessions

I run early morning, before school, online sessions. It’s great to study when the mind is alert, making this one of the best times to understand the subject. It’s also a perfect opportunity to get support for same-day maths classes.

Daytime sessions - From July 2025

For college students seeking personalised support in their education, my daytime one-to-one tutoring offers a focused and flexible learning environment. Whether you need to learn at A-Level, prepare for university exams, or build confidence in mathematics, I provide tailored guidance during free periods or independent study time.

Holiday maths tuition

I provide specialised summer holiday online tuition which is particularly effective for those about to begin A’ level maths in the coming year.

Small groups

This is an ideal alternative if you need tuition for multiple individuals at the same level. This tutoring option is perfect for up to four students, wishing to improve their skills.
