How I teach

Small, meaningful steps

Most students don't get stuck because a topic is too hard. They get stuck because the question in front of them doesn't look like the one they practised. That's a different problem, and it has a different fix.

Break it down

Every hard problem is a stack of small ones. We take them apart together until each step is something you could have found yourself — because next time, you will.

Understand, don't memorise

A memorised method survives until the exam rewords the question. Knowing why it works survives anything.

Work on your actual weak spots

Every mistake gets classified — a real gap, too slow, a careless slip, or a misread question. The pattern tells us what to do next far better than a score does.

Getting started

How it works

  1. Register your interest

    A short form telling me the subject, the year group, and what you'd like to get out of it.

  2. Free 30-minute trial

    We meet online, work through a question together, and you decide whether it's a fit. No cost, no commitment.

  3. A plan, not just sessions

    We agree what we're aiming at and in what order — especially important for admissions tests with fixed dates.

  4. Weekly sessions

    Online, 1-to-1, with work set between sessions and reviewed at the start of the next.

About the tutor

Hi, I'm Aarit Maheshwari

I've just finished my A-Levels in Maths, Further Maths, Physics and Chemistry at St Olave's Grammar School, with an A* in all four and 92% in Further Maths. I start at the University of Warwick reading Pure Mathematics in September 2026.

Before that: a grade 9 in every one of my ten GCSEs, including full marks in Maths — top 0.1% nationally — and a top 10% national score in the TMUA.

I sat these exams recently enough to remember exactly where they catch people out, and I enjoy the part most people find frustrating: taking a problem that looks impossible and finding the small step that makes it start to move.

Before you ask

Common questions

How do online sessions actually work?

We meet by video call with a shared digital whiteboard, so we can both write and both see the working build up in real time. It works just as well as being in a room together — often better, because you get to keep the whole board afterwards.

Is the trial session really free?

Yes. 30 minutes, no payment details taken, no obligation afterwards. It's as much for me as for you — I'd rather find out early if I'm not the right person to help.

What should we bring to the first session?

A question or topic that's currently going badly, and a recent piece of marked work if you have one. That tells me more in five minutes than any amount of describing would.

Do you set homework?

Usually, and it's discussed at the start of the next session. For admissions tests it's always timed, because untimed practice teaches the wrong habit for those exams.

How far ahead should we start admissions test preparation?

For TMUA and ESAT, six to ten weeks of focused work is usually enough. STEP wants far longer — ideally starting in Year 12 or the summer before Year 13.

Are the free resources really free?

Yes — no sign-up, no email address needed. Have a look at the resources page.
