Why I built Tom

For when you can’t remember how they teach it now. Most parents can’t.

Tom was built by a Former Head of Maths with two decades in the classroom—someone who's sat with hundreds of children as the penny finally dropped, and knows exactly how to get it there.

  • 20 years teaching maths in UK schools
  • Former Head of Maths
  • Specialist in supporting struggling learners
  • Expert in SEND and SEMH
Founder of Tom's School, a Former Head of Maths

I’ve spent 20 years watching switched-off students convince themselves they’re bad at maths, and their parents struggling to help them. Tom is my answer to that.

I’ve built my “Trojan Horse method” into him: build rapport, design the lesson around the student’s interests, then sneak the maths in. In my experience it engaged students others had given up on.

When you join, you get Tom and you get me. I’m a former Head of Maths and SEND specialist, and I’m on the other end of every email. If you’re worried about your child’s maths, aren’t sure where the gaps are, or want advice on how to support them at home, write to me and you’ll get a real reply from a real teacher, not a help desk.

I’m also a dad of teenagers, and like every parent I want to see young people grow and reach their potential. That’s what I want for Tom.

I’ll keep improving him: listening to the families who use him, learning from what works, and making him better for the next child.

Not sure if Tom is right for your child? Want to know how he works or whether he’d suit a particular age or ability? Email me at hello@tomsschool.co.uk.

Kids actually want to learn with Tom.

"Tom was a massive hit for my daughter who tries to avoid maths, it was lovely to see her smiling while learning at the same time."
Hannah, Year 7 mum, Somerset
"She was excited to tell me what she had learnt which was lovely as we don't see that excitement really."
Jo, Year 8 mum, Wiltshire
"His personality is better than any other AI I've used — genuinely funny, and I loved how he built games around what I'm into."
Cole, Year 10 student, Devon
"Honestly, I'd choose Tom over the school's own maths system any day."

Who it's for

For the parent who can't quite remember how to do it themselves

Maybe it's been years since you did algebra or you never really got on with maths at school. Either way Tom's there to explain it properly, patiently, without making anyone feel silly for asking.

Year 10 & 11 targeting a grade 4

GCSE Foundation students who need focused, exam-style support to secure that all-important grade 4.

Home-educated children

Children learning at home who need structured, curriculum-aligned maths support with a patient tutor who moves at their pace.

Students who can't afford a private tutor

One-to-one tuition helps, but it's expensive. Tom gives your child patient, personalised support for a fraction of the cost.

Lost their confidence

Kids who've started to believe they're just 'bad at maths' and need a patient, judgement-free guide to prove themselves wrong.

Gaps in their knowledge

Missed topics, fallen behind, or moved schools. Tom finds the gaps and quietly fills them in.

Disengaged in class

Switched off, switched out, or too anxious to ask. Tom meets them where they are, with no pressure.

Maths 'isn't for them'

The kids who've decided maths just isn't their thing. Tom's job is to change their mind, gently.

What Tom does

A proper tutor. Just always there.

He remembers your child, builds every lesson around what they love, and helps with homework and revision.

Remembers your child

Tom builds a picture of what they know, where the gaps are, and what makes them laugh—and builds lessons around their interests.

Knows the full curriculum

He knows the national curriculum from Year 1 to Year 11, plus both AQA and Edexcel GCSE Foundation syllabuses. Every topic they need, taught properly—not just Googled.

Snap a photo of any question

Stuck on a homework question or past-paper problem? Your child can take or upload a photo and Tom will talk them through it, step by step.

Available any time, day or night

Homework crisis at 9pm? Sunday morning revision? Tom's already awake.

Warm and funny

Kids stay because Tom's actually good company. Confidence grows as a side effect.

Built using real AQA & Edexcel exam materials

Tom has studied the question papers, mark schemes and examiners' reports for both AQA and Edexcel to spot patterns, common mistakes and the best way to achieve a grade 4.
