EXPERT ONLINE MATHS LESSONS FOR 11+, GCSE, A LEVEL & UNIVERSITY ADMISSIONS
About Mr Armitage
Damian Armitage graduated from the University of Cambridge with a Masters in Chemical Engineering. He has 10+ years of experience in classroom teaching and online education of mathematics. What sets him apart from other online educators is his clarity, precision and his experience as the Head of Mathematics in a top London Independent school, where he was in charge of all secondary Maths education and the 11+ Mathematics admissions process.
He has authored Maths textbooks, written the international ISEB 13+ examinations, mentored scores of pupils into STEM Oxbridge courses,
helped place countless 11+ pupils in their top choice schools and delivered more than a thousand hours of online education.
Today, Mr Armitage leads an elite team of hand-picked tutors providing bespoke, one-on-one tuition designed to develop exceptionally confident mathematicians. Working closely with each student, the team focuses on accelerating academic progress, building core confidence, and instilling a lifelong appreciation for the subject. Whether guiding families through the 11+ admissions process or coaching candidates for Oxbridge entry examinations, Mr Armitage and his associate tutors provide the expert support needed to unlock every pupil's full potential.
11+
Applicants who are not enrolled in prep schools often find they haven't covered the entire exam syllabus, as state schools continue teaching these topics through the end of Year 6—long after entrance assessments occur. Mr Armitage’s 11+ Mathematics tutoring program ensures pupils are fully prepared for their applications, whether applying to top grammar schools or competitive independent schools. Every pupil receives a bespoke program tailored to their starting point, ensuring directed, measurable progress in the lead-up to these pivotal examinations.
GCSE
Mathematics is arguably the most critical GCSE, opening doors to STEM university degrees and a vast range of future careers. Mr Armitage’s GCSE tuition runs in parallel with each pupil's school curriculum, clarifying complex concepts that busy classrooms often lack the time to address. By identifying and closing gaps in foundational knowledge, his team ensures new content can be built on solid ground—helping pupils move beyond simple formula application to develop the deep, structural understanding required for advanced problem-solving.
A Level
The transition from GCSE to A-Level Mathematics is often the single most challenging step in a student’s academic journey. As the UK's most popular A-Level, it is a non-negotiable requirement for competitive STEM degrees, where securing an A or A* is essential. Mr Armitage and his team guide pupils across this hurdle by demystifying complex core content, addressing classroom knowledge gaps, and instilling the rigorous study habits needed to transform students into confident, independent mathematicians.
TMUA
The TMUA (Test of Mathematics for University Admission) is almost certainly the most significant exam a pupil sits before their A Levels. It is taken by pupils applying for Maths, Economics, and Computer Science at top universities, and securing a very high score in the first term of a pupil's final year is the only way to secure an offer. Preparation for this exam must start early.
