Summary/Abstract: The article is a personal reflection on private tuition, which involves learning and teaching processes. Private math lessons can be perceived not only as mere transmission of knowledge to the student, but also as a therapeutic process. Such an approach is less popular. The therapeutic effect is based on the relationship developed between the teacher and the learner, which ensures both more efficient gaining of knowledge and a corrective experience. Selected aspects of this process are presented in the paper, in accordance with the basic concepts of transactional analysis, such as Clarke’s 5P model, the functional and structural model, transaction analysis, injunctions and counter-injunctions. The author reflects on the contract concluded within private tuition, as well as on some ethical doubts concerning a relational approach during lessons. Multiple examples taken from the authors’ personal experience are included as an illustration.
