Why this programme
Our courses cover both Foundation and Higher Tier and are led by experienced teachers Su Bowie and Matt Wilkinson, who bring over 25 years of combined GCSE Maths teaching experience. We focus on building both subject knowledge and teaching confidence, giving tutors the skills and understanding needed to deliver GCSE Maths effectively.
Every session is delivered live by both of us together, creating a really nice environment where our tutors can ask questions and are encouraged to discuss the course content with us whilst being shown it.
With backgrounds in both schools and colleges, Su and Matt will guide you through the curriculum you actually need to know, and support you in making progress in your own learning too.

What tutors say
I just wanted to say “Thank you” to you both. The session was informative and so useful and delivered in a really non-stuffy way, the time literally flew. I have done so much training over the years and most does not live up to the hype it is given. I will be recommending this course to anyone interested in taking on maths students.
I thoroughly recommend The Confident Maths Tutor Programme having completed both the Foundation and Higher courses with Matt and Su this year. They share their wealth of knowledge and experience of tutoring maths with a wide range of learners, and share top tips about resources and how to tutor maths both online and face to face. I frequently refer back to the session videos and resources that they provide. A great investment.
I highly recommend this course with Su and Matt, who work brilliantly together to deliver the course content and offer valuable insights into the teaching of Foundation Maths GCSE. I am Primary trained and sometimes lack confidence in teaching Maths. The methods modelled by Su and Matt are so useful and have helped me to understand more difficult concepts. Thank you so much. It’s five stars from me!
A very relaxed and encouraging course with lots of excellent information and tips for both my own subject knowledge and how to successfully teach it. Definitely missing my Wednesday lunchtime sessions.
I would definitely recommend The Confident Maths Tutor Programme. For me, it has provided structured revision of maths topics that I would not have got around to covering myself, certainly not as quickly. There has been a mixture of reassurance about what topics I already know, as primary trained, and how to approach newer areas for GCSE compared to primary, with lots of tips for common problems, misconceptions and how to get the marks in exams. Guidance and recommendations on resources and the sharing of slides and question examples has been really useful and time saving.
I thoroughly recommend the Confident Maths Tutor course. I have just completed the Foundation course and will be continuing to the Higher one very soon. The course has helped me improve my subject knowledge and identify areas I needed to become more comfortable teaching, as well as equipping me to tutor GCSE maths confidently. Matt and Su are both very knowledgeable about the syllabus and exam structure and manage to convey the essential information in a really accessible and supportive way. I can honestly say it’s been the most useful CPD I have done in a long time!
