In Edinburgh, students grow up surrounded by a strong tradition of mathematical excellence. From early years through to Higher Maths, the city’s schools, shaped by Scotland’s Curriculum for Excellence, ask a lot of their learners. But these expectations can create real pressure, especially when making the jump from National 5. That’s where Edumentors comes in. Our tutors don’t just know maths, they understand how it’s taught across Edinburgh, from George Watson’s to Boroughmuir. With experience navigating Scotland’s unique education system, they help students tackle tough topics, build confidence, and aim high.
Students in Edinburgh often face unique challenges due to Scotland's Curriculum for Excellence , especially when it comes to mathematics.

At Edumentors, we have specialised tutors who are experienced in teaching National 5, Higher, and Advanced Higher Mathematics specifically within the context of Edinburgh schools. Our tutors understand how Curriculum for Excellence works, and they tailor their lessons to fit the unique structure and assessment methods used in Scotland.
