About
I am a qualified Maths teacher currently lecturing in GCSE Maths and Aeronautical Engineering, with degrees in both Aerospace Engineering and Teaching.
Tutees tend to fall into the following 3 categories:
- needing advanced help to reach full potential and achieve grade 7/8/9,
- predicted a borderline pass or fail at school and needing help to secure a pass,
- failed at first attempt and needing assistance with retake.
N.B. I have also become popular with boarding school students who use the online tuition service I offer.
I have a proven track record with all of the above, and have a huge stock of examining body approved resources and worksheets specific to individual topics in the syllabus.

Tutoring Approach
My usual approach for preparing a student to score as highly as possible in GCSE exams is to work together in attempting past paper after past paper. Doing this not only gets the student very familiar and experienced with what to expect in the exam, but also flags up areas of weakness

Reviews from First Tutors
Imported from Edward T.'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.

My son has an EHCP and needed extra help to get a pass in maths. Ed was brilliant and my son started to feel much more confident about maths. He got his GCSE results this week and passed maths! I would certainly recommend Ed.

Ed tutored my son Thomas from January 2019 to his maths gcse. He found Ed ready easy to work with and the sessions were organized, following past papers and then focusing on areas where this were unclear. Tom improved two grades from his mock exam in he final result. We are delighted and I would wholly recommend Ed

What a guy Ed is. We can’t express how instrumental Ed was in getting Ollie form a mock fail to a GCSE pass in such a short space of time. Wouldn’t hesitate to recommend him to anyone looking to improve their grade.

Ed helped my daughter between her mocks and actual GCSEs to secure the grade she needed in Maths for entry to sixth form. She also ended up exceeding her predicted grade in science which I am sure was partially due to technique/formulae taught. Ed was always professional and helpful. I highly recommend.

Ed is providing consistent and very supportive tutoring to my daughter, boosting her confidence in maths and with a positive impact on her performance in Y10 assessment. The arrangement we have agreed works very well, and it is a calm and well targeted support.

Can highly recommend Ed. He taught My daughter from September to November. She already had two failed attempts at maths. He helped her grow in confidence and in the Short time she was with him we saw a Hugh difference. Only wish I had found him before she sat it the first time.

My son has thoroughly enjoyed his lessons with Ed. His understanding and confidence has soared and he now feels he is able to tackle his resit. Having always been under confident and stressed about maths, he is now enjoying the subject - something we never thought would happen! Thank you Ed.

Ed was great in working with my son and his preparations for GCSE. My son was very happy with his tutoring style, and lessons have helped him get a more accurate understanding of Maths. He was very reliable and always on time. Highly recommended! Ed was especially helpful in structuring lessons and focusing on areas of weakness - boosting my confidence greatly. Thank you. — Blue

Thank you so much Ed! In less than a term Will improved from being stuck at grade 4 to achieving grade 6 in his GCSE. He gained so much from those really personalised sessions and his confidence soared. I will send his sister along to you soon! Thanks again. Rebecca

The tuition Ed provided my son with leading up to his GCSE Maths exam has been immeasurable. His approach made such a difference to my son's understanding of the subject. As a result Rico was able to improve his grade level and achieve a 7. Ed's tuition was a significant factor in helping him achieve this result and I would highly recommend him to any GCSE student.

My daughter was struggling with her maths and was only working at a grade 2. Ed started tutoring her just before Xmas 2017 until June 2018 when she sat her exams. He was patient and took so much time for her. He made her feel at ease and she always left her lesson on a high. She says that if she hadn't had Ed to help her she would have failed. Today she received her results and she got a 4 and more importantly the pass she needed. We can't thank Ed enough and would 100% recommend him

Thank you for all your hard work, welcoming my son into your setting and teaching him Maths for his GCSEs. Both myself and my son agree, that you were inviting and pleasant and we’re very happy that he developed from a level 2 to a level 5 during his time under your tuition. I will gladly recommend you to anyone looking for a tutor. Many thanks Julie

We were looking for someone to boost our daughters confidence in her abilities in Maths. Hit upon Ed's profile and so glad we did. They hit it off immediately. Ed brings a confident relaxed style, with patience and drive. Our daughter received her A* today in Maths IGCSE. With out hesitation we would recommend Ed to help with your son or daughters GCSE/IGCSE Maths needs.
