I work as a private maths tutor so I need a constant stream of supplies to keep my students engaged. Any comments you have on how to improve or extend any of my worksheets would be hugely appreciated.
I hope you find what's here helpful - I've only uploaded the resources that have proved successful with my students, anything that didn't go down so well has either been editted or binned!

Designed to be printed in A5 using the PDF readers booklet printing feature - pages are in the order they're to be printed in so if you don't have this feature it will work just as well :)
A maths question for every day - aimed at KS2 students. Variety of topics, no questions are repeated (so, yes, there is a different question for each day in every month – it’s taken a while!)
This file is for the whole year, individual months are available to purchase in my shop. Also available for KS3/4.
A maths question for every day - aimed at high achieving KS3 students or GCSE students. Variety of topics, no questions are repeated (so, yes, there is a different question for each day – it’s taken a while!)
This file is the whole calendar, individual months are available to purchase in my shop. Also available for KS2.
(Buying the whole calendar is half the price of buying the months individually)
One of the biggest challenges I find as a private tutor is students not reading the questions or instructions properly - it drives me mad!
This exercise is one I've been meaning to make for a while, a whole list of questions most of which can be done at all ages (I've included the word doc so you can edit it) but they're time consuming and tedious.
Question 3 is the only nice one: What is 1+2?
The beginning tells them to read all the questions and instructions before they start - the end tells them they only have to do question three. It'll be nice and easy for those that read it properly, and a lot of effort for those that don't!
I also included a note saying working and answers should be written on the paper (at the beginning) so if you set it as homework they can't get away with doing it on another piece of paper and pretending they did it properly!
I print this from a PDF reader in "Multiple" setting so I get two copies on one page, that's why there's two the same in each file. Also works in normal A4 settings :)
A worksheet which encourages students to spot multiples of 2 and 5 by circling them. They're then asked to place the numbers into a Venn Diagram which is labelled to show them where to put each number.
Feel free to edit to use multiples of different numbers!
A sheet which encourages students to list all factors by writing them as pairs. Eg 12 = 1x12, 2x6, 3x4.
Spaces provided to write each number to ensure that none are missed.
A worksheet which explains how to increase and decrease numbers using decimals with questions such as
Delete as appropriate
To increase/decrease by 40% we multiply by 1.4
And fill in the gaps questions such as
To increase by 25% multiply by ________
To decrease by _____ multiply by 0.7
A complete set of tests for all times tables from 1 through to 12.
