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

• The four operations let you combine, separate, scale, and share quantities.
• Understanding fractions means knowing how to divide something into equal parts.
• Percentages convert fractions into a scale of 100 for easy comparison.
• 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.

One-to-one lessons let you work at your own pace and ask questions freely.

Maths tutors in Portland typically charge about £25/h per hour.

This price can differ depending on several factors:

• The learner's stage (KS2, KS3, GCSE, or beyond)
• The teacher's background and expertise (QTS status, maths degree, proven track record)
• How often you meet and for how long (one hour, ninety minutes, or longer)
• The lesson type (face-to-face, video call, or hybrid)

Booking multiple sessions often reduces the hourly rate.

Remote sessions tend to be cheaper and more flexible than in-person ones.

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

• Adding means putting numbers together to see how much you have altogether.
• Subtraction answers "how many are left?" or "what is the difference?".
• Multiplication is repeated addition that scales a number by another.
• Dividing answers "how many in each group?" or "how many groups can I make?".

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

Private lessons reinforce these skills through tailored exercises and real-world examples.
