Send your CV: that is all it takes to apply, and with no CV you can fill in your details instead. We read every CV ourselves, usually within 3 days, and if it is a fit the rest of the application opens.

You set your own rate, at least £30 an hour. We take 20% of each lesson, so at £30 you keep £24, and there is no membership fee.

Which maths levels can I teach?

Any you know well: you choose the levels and exam boards on your profile, from primary school to A-Level, the IB and admissions tests.

Do I need a maths degree?

No. We read your CV and what you would teach, and a degree helps if you have one, but it is not required.

Can I teach STEP or the TMUA?

Yes, if you know them well, ideally because you sat them. They are subjects of their own on the site, and your profile can say which tests you sat.

What maths tutoring covers

GCSE Maths, at Foundation or Higher, and A-Level Maths and Further Maths; the 11+, primary maths, IGCSE and the IB, and the maths admissions tests (the TMUA and STEP) for students applying to read maths, computer science or economics.

Teaching maths online

The lesson whiteboard writes fractions, powers and equations properly, has a graph plotter, and a student can photograph their working with a phone, so you see exactly where a method went wrong. Between lessons you can set questions in cookie, which marks them and shows you a student’s weakest topics.

What you earn

We take 20% of each lesson and you keep the rest, with no membership fee. Work it out for your rate:

Your hourly rate£40Hours of lessons a week5

You keep £32 an hour, so £160 a week.

After our 20% of each lesson and before any tax you owe. How many lessons you teach depends on the students who book you.

Who can apply

Every tutor is identity-checked, and we look for tutors at top universities, taking anyone else only on a strong application. We read every application ourselves, and the software refuses to list anybody who has not passed all of it.

Where they are studying, or studied. We look for tutors at top universities: Oxford, Cambridge and the Russell Group in the UK, and their equivalents elsewhere. It is what we look for rather than a rule we apply blindly, so a reviewer can say yes to somebody outstanding from a university not on our list, or with no degree but a strong application, and can say no to somebody who is at one of them.
A university email address we verify, if they have one. We send a code to it and they have to enter it, which is the quickest honest answer to "are you actually there", checked by software rather than taken on trust. It is a convenience rather than a requirement: somebody who has graduated, or whose university does not issue one, can still apply, and a person reads what they send instead.
A CV, and their school grades and a degree if they have them. Their CV, read by a person, and real grades where they have them: which ones, what they got, and when, not "strong A-levels". Grades and a degree are not needed to apply.
We read every application. Their answers to our questions, their grades and their video if they made one, read by us. If we want to know more, we ask for a short video call.
Proof they are who they say they are. A photo of a passport or driving licence and a photo of their face, through Stripe. Stripe tells us the outcome and those photographs never reach us. A right-to-work check is separate, and a copy of the document from that check is kept on record, as the law requires.

Where somebody studied is a fact about them, not a claim of endorsement; Cookie Tutoring is not affiliated with, endorsed by or connected to any university.
