BrownTuition provides private mathematics tuition services for students from Year 5 through Year 11 (KS2 transition, KS3 and GCSE). All sessions are delivered by Mr J Brown, a qualified teacher and sole trader registered in England and Wales.
BrownTuition takes the safety and wellbeing of all students seriously. Mr Brown holds a current Enhanced DBS certificate (available for inspection on request), has Qualified Teacher Status (QTS), and is trained in safeguarding best practice. All scheduling, feedback and progress updates are conducted directly with the parent or guardian — we do not communicate with students under 18 outside of scheduled tuition sessions. Parents are welcome to observe any session. Online sessions may be recorded by the parent for their own oversight. Concerns can be raised at any time by emailing tutors@browntuition.co.uk — these are read directly by Mr Brown.
All materials produced by BrownTuition for use in sessions (worksheets, plans, resources) remain the intellectual property of BrownTuition. They may not be reproduced, shared or sold without written permission.
BrownTuition makes no guarantee of specific grade outcomes. Results depend on many factors including the student's effort, attendance and engagement. We are committed to providing the highest quality tuition but cannot be held liable for examination results.
