About

I am a fully qualified secondary school maths teacher with a BSc in Mathematics offering tuition for all ages. I have been very successful as a teacher and tutor with a wide range of different academic abilities. I have been tutoring full time since 2017. I have a full current DBS (criminal records check).


I have a 100% pass rate with the new 9-1 GCSE's. All my pupils from the 2017 through to 2025 passed their GCSE's. Some of the successes include a pupil moving from a predicted grade 6 to a grade 9 and another moving from a 5 in his December mock exam to a grade 8 in his March mock exam, gaining the award for most improved result in the whole school and then went on to achieve a 9 in his GCSE's. Another pupil who moved from a grade 2 to a grade 4. In total I had 14 final year students in 2017, 18 in 2018, 21 in 2019, 25 in 2020 and 23 in 2021, 26 in 2022, 18 in 2023, 12 in 2024 and 14 in 2025 who all improved their grade and achieved grades 4-9 (C-A*+).

Please note the cost advertised here are for online lessons, face to face lessons will incur extra fees. The advertised price is for 1 hour (except KS2 lessons which are 40 minutes), I also offer shorter lessons which can be 40 minutes or 50 minutes at a reduced cost. You can take the option to spread the cost of term time lessons over 12 months (or less if appropriate). For example 36 online lessons at 40 minutes per lesson works out to be 12 payments of £90 per month.

Reviews from First Tutors

4.9 across 13 reviews

Imported from Jason L.'s First Tutors profile before the site went dark. Shown separately from Tutorperch reviews — today they don't feed this tutor's Tutorperch rating or ranking.

How we verify these

Each imported review went through admin review. The tutor proved ownership of the First Tutors profile via one of two paths:

  • Photo match. The First Tutors avatar matched the tutor's identity-verified Tutorperch photo, confirmed by admin.
  • Cryptographic email check. The tutor uploaded an original First Tutors email (.eml). We verified the DKIM signature against First Tutors' signing keys and cross-checked the embedded tutor ID against the claimed profile.

The review text is the original reviewer's own words, quoted as-is. We verified the tutor's ownership of the profile, not the truth of what each individual reviewer wrote.

    Jason is dedicated and organised and my children are reaping the benefits of his efforts. He has filled in many gaps in their knowledge and this is a great relief to us as their schooling has been so disrupted by Covid . Jason is highly recommended by us.

    The children are a credit to you and a pleasure to teach.

    Would certainly recommend Jason as a tutor. He revisited some maths areas to support my daughter taking her national skills test.

    I would definitely recommend Jason. My daughter was on target to get a 4 in Maths and has just received her results and has achieved a 6! Jason has increased my daughter's confidence. I liked the way he built upon her existing knowledge, giving her explanations and techniques to help her. He was on time and very reliable. Overall he is an excellent tutor.

    Jason is an excellent tutor to my granddaughter who is taking her Maths GCSC. He is reliable and has a relaxed comfortable manner whilst teaching. He brings resources and gives homework. He is extremely helpful working through the areas she needs support. Jason liases with her Maths teacher at school coordinating her learning. I would highly recommended Jason.

    Jason was very patient and thorough and enabled my son to achieve a good grade in his GCSE maths, which he otherwise would have struggled to pass. Thank you so much Jason, we really appreciated your support.

    Thanks to Jason's tutoring expertise our son moved from an anticipated grade 6 to receipt of a grade 9 at GCSE. Jason is great at explaining and covering topics from all angles whilst maintaining a enjoyable learning environment. His flexibility at responding to specific deficiencies provides a bespoke and focused tutoring experience. The positivity, knowledge and persona Jason possesses have made this an invaluable investment for our sons academic future. Thank you for all your help Jason.

    We couldn't be more impressed by the tuition Jason provided. Our son James was in the first cohort of the new 9-1 GCSE and was achieving a low grade 4 in November of year 11. We were keen to ensure that he achieved at least a grade 5, so contacted Jason through First Tutors in January 2017. Jason was extremely reliable and, from the first session our son reported that he was a "brill teacher". He was pushed hard and challenged in each session with Jason, as well as being set extra work to consolidate his learning. James felt that Jason prepared him very well for the demands of the higher paper and has just achieved a high grade 7 in his GCSE. We are all over the moon and very grateful for Jason's support. Highly recommended!
