Hi! My name is Nicole Taylor, and I am the creator of NextStepMaths.com. I am a Mathematics graduate from the University of Cambridge and a highly experienced online maths tutor with many years of dedicated teaching expertise.

I specialise in University Admissions Test preparation, including STEP, MAT, and TMUA, as well as Interview Preparation for Oxbridge and other top universities.

My personalised approach ensures that each student receives tailored guidance, focusing on their unique strengths and areas for improvement, to help them reach their full potential.

I understand that navigating university admissions tests and interviews can be challenging, but with the right preparation and support, success is entirely achievable.

A Little About Me and My Approach to Online Tuition

For several years, I have been professionally tutoring University Entrance Exams (STEP, MAT and TMUA), A Level Maths and Further Maths, as well as offering Maths Interview Preparation for Cambridge and other top universities. I have experience of exam marking; in 2022 I marked both the STEP 2 and STEP 3 Papers.

The enjoyment of helping students to achieve their academic goals and succeed is what motivates me to create the resources and content on this website. Take a look at my STEP Questions and Solutions Database, STEP Questions By Topic Database, Oxbridge Maths Practice Interview Questions, or the collection of past exam papers and solutions for STEP, MAT, TMUA, A Level Maths and A Level Further Maths.

Over the years, I have refined my online tutoring approach to ensure lessons are as effective, interactive, and engaging as in-person sessions—if not more so.
