Home Tutoring.org.uk - Mathematics (Numeracy)
Home Tutoring.org.uk offers Mathematics from Primary (Key Stage 1) to GCSE level (Key Stage 4). We use a range of resources to cater for individual needs and we cover all areas of the National Curriculum. Tutoring can be done on an individual or very small group basis and always at a pace that is suitable for the student.
Following is an overview of the topics we cover at each level, but these are flexible to suit the individual needs of the learner which means that we are able to only cover specific areas if this is what the learner would prefer. The topics can be taught as single units for those wishing to improve or learn a specific area of Mathematics, and not all topics need to be covered:
Key Stage 1 (Years 1-2 / Ages 4-7) Key
Stage 2 ( Years 3-6 / Ages 7-11)
Key Stage 3 ( Years 7-9 / Ages 11-14) Key
Stage 4 GCSE (Years 10-11 / Ages 14-16)
