A real result, and the lesson behind it.

From Resit to Medical SchoolA panic call that ended in a university place
“A student had a B in Maths but needed a resit to get into medicine. Months went by with no progress, until her mum called Charisma in a panic. Charisma acted straight away and rebuilt her foundations from where she actually was. She smashed the resit and is now off to university.”
The earlier we start, the less panic there needs to be.

Taught by people who use maths for a living

Frazer
Frazer
GCSE Maths Specialist

A first in Actuarial Science from Heriot-Watt University, now working as a trainee actuary. He turns the problems he solves at work into explanations that finally make sense.

Danash
A-Level Maths Specialist

A first in Mathematics from the University of Leeds, and he went from a grade 5 to a grade 9 himself. He has made the exact climb your child is starting.

None of us are qualified classroom teachers, and that is deliberate. We are working professionals who use maths at a high level every day, so your child learns how to take apart a question they have never seen before rather than repeat a method they have memorised. It is also why our rates sit below the £60 an hour and up a qualified teacher typically charges.

“Charisma has been a great help to me for maths. When I began I was struggling with grasping the techniques, she helped me understand them from the beginning. I was well within a D grade, but with Charisma's help I've moved into a B.”

Questions students & parents ask

Why is the trial lesson £10 rather than free?

Because it is a real one-to-one lesson with a specialist tutor, not a sales call. The small fee means every trial gets proper preparation, and it means a parent is involved from the start, which is what makes tutoring work.

Can my child message you themselves?

Yes, students are welcome to message us with questions. To book the trial lesson we will just need a parent or guardian involved, as they will be the one arranging lessons.

What happens in the trial lesson?

Your child works on the topics they are finding hardest with a specialist tutor. Afterwards we will tell you honestly where they are and what we would recommend, with no pressure to continue.

How much independent work is expected between sessions?

Consistent practice between sessions is what turns understanding into marks. We set targeted work based on what was covered and what your child needs, and WhatsApp support means they are never stuck waiting a week to ask a question. We will be honest after the trial lesson about the realistic weekly commitment.

Are your tutors qualified teachers?

No, and we are upfront about that. We are working professionals with maths and actuarial degrees rather than trained classroom teachers, and it is reflected in what we charge. Tutors with a teaching qualification are typically £60 an hour and up. We sit below that, while staying well above university-student rates. What your child gets is someone who uses maths at a high level and can teach them how to actually solve problems.

What if my child is already strong at maths?

An A in Year 12 does not automatically become an A* in Year 13. Year 13 adds harder content, UCAS applications, mock exams, and other subjects all at once. Strong students benefit from getting ahead early so they have the bandwidth to actually improve rather than just hold their grade.

What if my child's school is teaching topics in a different order?

That is completely normal and we plan for it. The programme order is a guide, not a rigid schedule. We adjust session content to align with what your child's school is covering so they are reinforcing classwork rather than running parallel to it. The end goal, full content mastery before Year 13 ramps up, stays the same.

How is this different from just getting more school help?

Schools teach the content, but rarely teach students how to actually problem solve. Spotting the trick behind a tough question, recognising patterns across topics, and thinking from first principles are the gamechanger. Our tutors are industry professionals who do this in their day to day, not just taught it from a textbook. It is what most classrooms simply do not have time to cover.

How quickly can we start?

We usually reply to WhatsApp messages the same day, and first lessons usually begin within the same week.
