Our Approach to TMUA Tutoring

The Test of Mathematics for University Admission (TMUA) is used by some of the UK’s top universities, including Cambridge, LSE and Imperial College London, to assess students for entry to competitive courses such as Maths and Economics. Achieving a high score is vital for students wishing to stand out to the admissions teams at these highly selective universities.
At Dukes Plus, we tailor our TMUA tutoring to help each student maximise their potential. Our tutors start by assessing your current skills to develop a personalised study plan that focuses on your specific needs. Whether you need to improve your performance in the applied mathematics section or would benefit from a boost to your logical reasoning skills, our tutors can help.
We provide rigorous exam practice through bespoke exercises and timed mock tests designed to mirror the real exam environment. This approach helps you build speed, accuracy, and confidence under pressure. Our tutors also deliver expert guidance on key TMUA topics, offering clear explanations and practical strategies for tackling complex questions. From mastering logic and proof to refining your overall test-taking strategy, we ensure you’re fully prepared to excel on test day.

Key Features of Our TMUA Tutoring Programme
Our TMUA tutoring is designed to provide comprehensive and effective preparation for this challenging exam.
At the beginning of the programme, our tutors assess your mathematical and reasoning strengths and weaknesses. They then construct a personalised study plan, customised to your specific needs. This enables rapid progress.
Our tutors are graduates in Maths, Economics, and related subjects from leading universities. They are experts in the TMUA, with extensive experience in preparing students for both Papers 1 and 2, and a track record of success.
The TMUA requires a thorough knowledge of the A Level Maths curriculum up to the beginning of Year 13. However, as universities use it to decide between strong Maths students, it requires you to demonstrate a level of ability beyond the school syllabus. Our tutors can ensure your mathematical knowledge, reasoning and working accuracy are strong enough to score highly – no matter which areas of the syllabus you need extra support with.
Practice under real test conditions with our timed mock exams. We offer detailed feedback and analysis to help you understand your performance and identify areas for improvement.
Our TMUA tutoring is available online anywhere in the world. This means you can work with expert TMUA tutors to fit around your schedule wherever you are based.
Benefit from our curated TMUA materials, including past papers, worked examples, and targeted practice questions. These resources are carefully compiled by our expert tutors and are proven to increase students’ scores.
