Foundational maths includes the four operations, fractions, decimals, and basic geometry.

• Arithmetic refers to addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division of whole numbers.
• Understanding fractions means knowing how to divide something into equal parts.
• Percentages help you compare proportions quickly and clearly.
• Shape recognition and measurement are the first steps in geometry.

These topics build on each other, so mastering one makes the next easier to learn.

A private tutor can identify gaps and strengthen weak areas with targeted practice.

Maths tutors in Penicuik typically charge about £18/h per hour.

This price varies depending on several factors:

• The learner's stage (primary, GCSE, A-Level, or university)
• The tutor's qualifications and experience (degree subject, teaching credentials, years of experience)
• How often you meet and for how long (weekly, twice weekly, intensive revision blocks)
• The lesson type (face-to-face, video call, or hybrid)

Some teachers provide package deals that lower the per-lesson cost.

Online lessons can be more affordable and save travel time.

Arithmetic rests on four operations: adding, subtracting, multiplying, and dividing.

• Addition combines two or more values to find a total or sum.
• Subtraction answers "how many are left?" or "what is the difference?".
• Multiplication answers "how many altogether if I have this many groups?".
• Division splits a number into equal parts or finds how many times one fits into another.

These four operations underpin algebra, geometry, and every advanced maths topic.

A tutor can help you practise each operation until it becomes second nature.
