Diagnostic Maths Assessment
A comprehensive assessment of mathematical skills and the underlying cognitive processes involved in learning maths. The assessment helps to identify strengths, areas of difficulty and indicators associated with dyscalculia and provides a report detailing clear recommendations for targeted support.
WHY 'THE MATHS DR'?
Highly qualified, experienced and personable
The Maths Dr provides specialist one-to-one tuition tailored to each learner’s individual needs and informed by expert teaching practice. Each learner follows a structured, cumulative programme informed by robust baselines and, where applicable, cognitive assessments. Teaching begins at the learner’s actual starting point and responds to their individual strengths, needs and barriers to learning, rather than being determined solely by age or school year group.
Confidence before complexity
Many learners find maths difficult because gaps in knowledge, anxiety or previous negative experiences have made the subject feel overwhelming. The Maths Dr rebuilds confidence through calm, supportive teaching, clear explanations and carefully sequenced learning. Progress looks different for every learner. It may mean greater independence, improved fluency, stronger problem-solving skills or simply having the confidence to try again.
Evidence-informed teaching
Lessons are guided by assessment, observation and ongoing review, rather than guesswork. The Maths Dr identifies what each learner understands, where difficulties remain and what should come next. Teaching is precise, responsive and informed by specialist experience of supporting learners who may need concepts explained differently. Progress is monitored over time, giving learners and families a clear picture of how understanding is developing, rather than focusing only on right or wrong answers.
