Maths Tutoring At-Home and Online – Miss Lucy Tutoring Fareham
Helping Children Build Skills, Confidence and Problem-Solving Skills
Expert Primary Maths Tutoring In Fareham and Surrounds
Hello, I’m Miss Lucy, a qualified primary school teacher with more than ten years of experience. I provide at-home maths tutoring for children in Fareham, Portsmouth, Southampton, and online across the UK.
Maths is one of the most important subjects in school, but it’s also the one many children find most challenging. A lack of confidence in maths can quickly affect progress in other subjects too. My aim is to help children feel calm, capable, and confident when working with numbers, so maths becomes less of a worry and more of a skill they can rely on.
Tutoring isn’t only for children who are struggling. Even very capable learners benefit from the extra stretch and challenge that one-to-one support provides. For high-achievers, maths tutoring can:
Build mastery in key skills like problem-solving and reasoning.
Provide extension activities beyond what’s covered in class.
Prepare children for exams such as the 11+ or secondary school entrance tests.
Why Maths Support Matters
Maths is a foundation subject. Skills like number fluency, problem-solving, and logical thinking are used not only in school but throughout life.
When children struggle with maths, they can begin to feel left behind. This often leads to frustration, anxiety, and the belief that they’re “not good at maths.” With the right support, children can change that mindset, build confidence, and begin to enjoy success in the subject.
Tutoring is equally valuable for children who are already confident and would benefit from being challenged further. Extra support ensures they stay motivated and continue to make progress.
Start Building Confidence, One Lesson at a Time
Signs Your Child May Benefit from Maths Tutoring
Parents often notice certain patterns when their child is finding maths difficult, such as:
Struggling to recall times tables or number bonds.
Finding it hard to solve word problems.
Anxiety or frustration when faced with maths homework.
Avoiding maths altogether or saying “I can’t do it.”
Falling behind classmates or losing confidence in class.
If any of these sound familiar, maths tutoring could give your child the boost they need.
In addition, as parents, you know exactly who is teaching your child. You can meet Miss Lucy face-to-face, ask questions, and receive clear feedback after every lesson. There’s no mystery, no handover to multiple tutors, and no wondering what your child actually learned.
My Approach to Maths Tutoring
Every child learns differently, so I adapt lessons to their individual needs. My approach is calm, encouraging, and focused on breaking maths down into manageable steps.
In lessons, I use:
Clear explanations to make tricky concepts easier.
Visual methods to show how numbers and problems fit together.
Practical examples and games to keep learning engaging.
Step-by-step practice that builds confidence gradually.
Whether your child is catching up, preparing for SATs, stretching for the 11+, or simply enjoys an extra challenge, I’ll create lessons that fit their goals.
