Joshua Edwards

Maths tutor · Tooting Bec & online

Maths Masters graduate from the University of Nottingham

I currently work as a software developer and in my free time I tutor mathematics — online across the UK and in person from Tooting Bec, South West London.

The class of 2025/2026 will be my sixth consecutive year of one-to-one tutoring. My aim is to motivate students of all levels to work hard to achieve desired grades and beyond.

I have experience tutoring KS3, KS4, and university level maths, all with exceptional results.

Through my experience, I’ve found it’s rarely mathematical ability holding students back, rather a lack of confidence.

My approach involves adapting my teaching style to meet the needs and learning preferences of each student.

By creating a supportive environment, I work to build their confidence, spark a genuine interest in the subject, and inspire a real desire to succeed.

More on my background is on the about page; levels and formats are on tutoring.

"Earlier this year, Joshua supported my son in preparing for his Maths GCSE. My son had never enjoyed maths before, Joshua connected with him in a way his maths teachers never had, was patient and supportive and we were delighted with the improvement in a very short period. I cannot recommend Joshua highly enough."

With his confidence boosted he achieved a strong grade 6 and is happily entering Sixth form. Great tutoring and highly recommend for all levels of maths."

"Joshua tutored my son who was working towards A level maths in lockdown. It was a challenging time and my son lacked confidence in his abilities and wasn't someone who asked questions comfortably in a classroom setting. His predicted grade was a 'C' for maths. Joshua helped enormously - his friendly approach was welcomed by my son who relaxed in..."

" the tutoring sessions and felt able to ask questions and speak openly about what he found difficult. Joshua was extermely organised and prepared for each session and the content was tailored to my son's needs. Joshua was very skilled at challenging my son to think independently and problem solve and this was done at a considered pace. Ultimately the tutoring experience was transformational and my son not only achieved an 'A' in A Level maths but found an appreciation for the subject and his confidence grew both in maths and beyond."

"Josh also tutored Reds brother George throughout his GCSE year. He worked very hard with George to build his confidence in the subject and bring out his natural ability, he came well prepared and was great at teaching topics that had previously been taught poorly in school - George was extremely happy with his results."

"Josh tutored Red for A-level maths throughout covid. Despite covid worries, Josh was happy to tutor in person to keep momentum going and was very keen for Red to succeed. Red was worried throughout his exams but Josh kept his confidence and spirits high, in the end Red was very happy with his grade!"
