Cognos Tuition

Cognos Tuition is a mathematics specialist tuition agency providing exceptional maths tutors to families in the London area.

Cognos Tuition is a mathematics focused tuition agency based in Kensington in West London.

The company was founded by undergraduates and alumni from Imperial College London to provide inspirational maths tuition to school-age students who aspire to get into top-tier universities.

Our approach is to use the connections and experience gained at Imperial to find the very best tutor for each student.

What makes us different from other tuition agencies is that we actually know the subject in depth and so can evaluate both tutors’ abilities and the specific needs of each student. In many cases we also know the tutor personally so have a very good idea of their capabilities.

We decided early on that we would not offer tuition in other subjects as the only way to do that would be to rely on keyword matching between tutor CVs and a student’s stated requirements. Given that each student’s future relies on the quality of their tuition, for us this type of “keyword matching” did seem like an adequate approach.

Our tutors are hand picked from the many people who apply. We expect superlative maths knowledge of course but we are also looking for that indefinable spark that is going to inspire rather than instruct our students.

We are currently operating in West and Central London, covering Kensington, Chelsea, Fulham, Belgravia, Mayfair, Notting Hill and Marylebone but we plan to expand in the near future to cover Greater London and eventually the rest of the UK. If you are looking for a tutor outside of our normal area please do get in touch as we sometimes have tutors in other regions.

Our core service is in-home tuition for GSCE, A-Level and International Baccalaureate (IB) maths but we also offer Skype sessions, group sessions and tuition abroad.
