What do parents say about Educamus Tuition?
Parents and students have left hundreds of reviews about their experience with Educamus Tuition.
Couldn’t recommend these guys enough. Proof is in the pudding though and it’s really shown her potential getting an A for her Math prelim, when her aim was initially to just get a pass.
My S2 son has been having weekly online Maths tuition with Ryder for a few months now. In his latest Maths test since the tuition he scored 82% which has given him a much needed boost. Ryder has been superb at building his ability and confidence!
Highly recommend educamus tuition, Elise is amazing. Elise set and marked homework / past papers. This gave Abby the confidence for the exams, and Abby reached her potential.
Megan tutored Mia and helped her a great deal. Mia was absolutely delighted with her result. She never thought she would have got a B. Huge thanks again to Megan.
Adam was a fantastic tutor for both maths and physics. His calm, reassuring manner settled any nerves and he happily kept going over topics until my son thoroughly understood them.
Great company with excellent tutors. Would highly recommend for all those needing help with exams. Built confidence for exams and reached helped reach the optimum grades necessary. Thanks guys
Absolutely fantastic service from Tony with the arrangement of tutors catered specifically for your child’s needs. My boys have benefited greatly from what educamus has to offer.
I would highly recommend this service! My daughter has received tutor sessions on and off over the last few years and it’s massively helped build her confidence.
Brilliant tutors and always on call to help and support highly recommend

What does one-to-one maths tuition with Educamus Tuition involve?
Every student starts in a different place. Some need help filling gaps from earlier years. Others understand the subject but struggle with exam technique, confidence or particular topics.
Before tuition begins, an Educamus Tuition course consultant speaks to you about the student’s current level, what they are finding difficult, what they want to achieve and the type of tutor likely to suit them.
We then choose the tutor who stays with them throughout their tuition. Sessions can take place at home in Kirkcaldy or online, with regular progress updates as the course develops.
- Vetted tutors who are PVG compliant under Scotland’s Protecting Vulnerable Groups scheme
- A dedicated course consultant to support you throughout the course
- Qualified teachers, professional tutors and strong university students
- STEM tutors through our partnership with Glasgow University Rocketry
- Regular progress reports

Book a free consultationHow much does a maths tutor cost in Kirkcaldy?
Home maths tuition in Kirkcaldy costs £50 per hour. Online maths tuition is £45 per hour.
Advanced Higher, GCSE, A Level and college or university maths tuition costs £55 per hour and is provided online.
All prices include VAT.
Will my child get the same maths tutor every week?
Yes.
Students work with the same tutor each week so the tutor gets to know how they learn, what they have already covered and where they need more support.
If the first tutor is not the right fit, the next session with a different tutor is free.
Are Educamus Tuition maths tutors PVG checked?
Yes. Educamus Tuition tutors are vetted and PVG compliant under Scotland’s Protecting Vulnerable Groups scheme.
Our tutor network includes qualified teachers, professional tutors and strong university students. We also work with Glasgow University Rocketry, which has helped us bring additional STEM tutors into the network.
Which maths levels do you cover in Kirkcaldy?
We provide tuition for Primary Maths, S1 to S3 Broad General Education, National 4, National 5, Higher and Advanced Higher Maths, as well as Applications of Maths and Numeracy.
GCSE Maths, A Level Maths and some college and university maths tuition are also available online.
Is home tuition or online maths tuition better?
It depends on the student.
Younger students often want a tutor at the table beside them. Teenagers are usually happy on a screen.
Online tuition also gives us a wider pool of tutors to choose from, which can be particularly useful for Higher, Advanced Higher and specialist subjects.
Your course consultant can talk through both options before you decide.
How quickly will we hear back after a consultation request?
Within 24 hours.
A course consultant will contact you to discuss the student’s level, what they need help with and what you would like tuition to achieve.
The consultation is free and there is nothing to pay until you decide to book a session.
How many hours of maths tuition does my child need?
Most students begin with one hour each week.
A single weekly hour carries most of the year, and families often add sessions as prelims or finals get close.
We can recommend an approach once we understand the student’s level, goals and timescale.
Can you help a student who is already getting good maths grades?
Yes.
Not every student comes to Educamus Tuition because they are struggling. We also work with students who are already doing well and want to move up a grade, prepare for an exam or step up to a more advanced level.
Melissa, for example, was already passing Higher Maths and moved from a B to an A.

Yes.
Educamus Tuition works with families in Kinghorn, Burntisland, Dysart, Thornton, Cardenden and Glenrothes as well as Kirkcaldy itself.
Where no home tutor is available nearby, online tuition covers the whole area.
What happens if we have to cancel a maths session?
Give us as much notice as possible and we will try to move the session to another date at no extra cost.
Sessions cancelled within 24 hours of the start time may still be charged.
Where a refund is due, it will normally be processed within three working days.
