About Jon

Qualified teacher (BEd Hons, DipHE Maths Education), Edexcel examiner, and private tutor — supporting young people who want maths to feel clearer and more doable.

I’m Jon. I work with students who are catching up, keeping pace with school, or pushing toward exams — always with an emphasis on understanding, not just procedure. I teach towards all the major UK exam boards and mark GCSE papers for Edexcel, so I know what examiners are looking for. You get direct explanations, sensible practice, and room to ask questions without pressure.

Tuition is online or at my home studio in Wednesbury (WS10). We agree what success looks like for your learner, then build sessions around that — whether that is confidence, grades, or simply worrying less about the next test.

If maths is not going the way you hoped, get in touch using the form below or WhatsApp. I offer a free online taster session so you can meet me, try the platform, and see if we are a good fit — with no obligation to continue.

“The best thing we ever did.”

Ways to work with Jon

Named options with clear outcomes — pick what fits, or ask in your message. Every path starts with a conversation (and a free online taster if you would like one).

Maths Confidence Starter

A low-commitment entry point: a 45-minute diagnostic, then four one-hour sessions, plus a short parent summary so you know what comes next. Good if you are unsure whether long-term tuition is right yet.

Ask about the Starter

GCSE Exam Sprint

A focused 2–6 week intensive in the run-up to exams (typically January–May): more frequent sessions, past-paper practice, and mock feedback. Availability is limited — Jon will confirm slots and fees when you enquire.

Check Sprint availability

How it works

  1. Get in touch

    Use the form, email, or WhatsApp. Mention a free online taster if you would like one. Jon replies within 24 hours on weekdays (usually sooner).

  2. Free online taster (optional)

    A short live session online so your child can meet Jon and get comfortable with how online tuition works — on Maths Tutoring Rocks’ own platform (not a generic video link).

  3. Agree a plan

    We talk through what your learner needs — confidence, catching up, exam prep — and whether monthly or hourly tuition suits you best.

  4. Regular sessions

    Calm, structured lessons online or in Wednesbury. Current tutees also use the online learning area between sessions (Moodle for now; migrating to in-house tools over time).

I would highly recommend Jon, he has given my 10 year old son so much more confidence. He was really struggling at school and during lockdown with maths, but with Jon’s help he’s made great progress and really enjoys his lessons!

My daughter has always struggled with maths and had little or no confidence. Jon’s alternative teaching approach and the ability to build confidence is astounding. He is flexible, approachable and always on hand to help out in between sessions. The best thing we ever did.

I cannot recommend Jon enough. He is professional, polite and has the biggest passion for maths that I have ever known. He approaches his sessions with enthusiasm but also leaves your child feeling that they can achieve greatness. My child went from achieving a 4 in their GCSEs to coming out with a final grade of a 6! This was all down to Jon and his commitment to helping my child achieve the best and truly caring for their wellbeing and education.

My boys love their tutorials with Jon. He explains concepts they have been struggling with at school in a clear and fun way and they quickly understand. If they are up to date, Jon plans lessons on the areas they will be studying next to give them a head start. He has always been flexible and has tried to swap times when the boys have struggled between tutorials. Just as important is that he is an incredibly nice man, who clearly loves teaching and the boys enjoy their lessons with him.

Our daughter was struggling with maths when we made the worthwhile decision to go to Jon for help. His approach to teaching is fun and engaging and after just a few sessions, managed to change our daughter’s way of thinking towards the subject, so much so she was looking forward to the test paper she had coming up! Jon often goes above and beyond and is always just a call away, any time, to iron out any issues or worries she may have. In short the man is worth his weight in gold.

Jon is a great tutor and I’m so glad we found him. Ben always struggled with maths but with Jon’s patience and ability to break things down for him, he now has the confidence to believe he can pass his GCSE. We have seen a difference in his grades and I’m sure a large part of this is down to Jon. I would have no hesitation in recommending him.

My son went to Jon for a good year while he was preparing for his GCSEs. Jon made him feel welcome and reassured him to just try his best. Kept in regular contact with me and gave me updates. I would highly recommend Jon for that additional support.
