PRIMARY & SECONDARY ENQUIRIES FOR SEPTEMBER 2026 NOW AVAILABLE
A LEVEL PRODUCT DESIGN TUTORING (MATHEMATICAL CONCEPTS)
WHO IS THIS SERVICE FOR?
- Students finding the mathematical aspects challenging
Many students enjoy the creative side of Product Design but lose marks on calculations and technical problem solving. Lessons are designed to build confidence in the mathematical skills required for the Product Design Course.
- Students aiming for higher grades
The highest grades often depend on how the student applies the mathematical principles to design problems. Again, we can help tackle these concepts in a confidence-boosting way.
- Mathematical and technical skills form an important part of A Level Product Design.
Developing confidence in these areas can help students apply their knowledge more effectively throughout the course and in examination questions.
WHAT MATHEMATICAL SKILLS ARE INCLUDED IN A LEVEL PRODUCT DESIGN?
- Ratios & Proportions
- Percentages
- Surface Area & Volume
- Scale Drawings
- Trigonometry
- Pythagoras Theorem
- Forces & Moments
- Mechanical Calculations
- Velocity, Speed & Acceleration
- Material Calculations
- Manufacturing Tolerances
- Interpreting Technical Drawings
- Graphs & Data Analysis
All these mathematical skills can help with pursuing careers in engineering, product design, architecture, manufacturing, industrial design and mechanical engineering.
WHICH EXAM BOARDS DO YOU TEACH?
We support students across all major A Level Product Design specifications including
- AQA
- OCR
- Edexcel
A LEVEL PRODUCT DESIGN TUTORING
WHY CHOOSE SPECIALIST PRODUCT DESIGN TUITION?
Lessons focus specifically on the mathematical skills used within the Product Design A Level course.
This helps students become confident applying mathematics in practical engineering and design situations rather than learning techniques in isolation.
WHAT DOES A TYPICAL LESSON LOOK LIKE?
Lessons are tailored to the student's current mathematical understanding and specification.
This would typically include
- Teaching or revising a mathematical concept
- Applying the skill to Product Design scenarios
- Working through examination-style questions - linked to the focus topic.
- Developing confidence with technical problem solving (multi-step problems).
- Reviewing common examination mistakes.
HOW MUCH INDEPENDENT STUDY SHOULD STUDENTS COMPLETE?
Reading notes/flashcards on calculations and completing further exam 'maths-linked' questions are important independent study areas.
We can also support the student by providing a homework service - additional to the usual tuition.
