Online maths A level WITH exam?

I have never been able to find any online or distance learning mathematics A level (AS alone also good) that includes the exam. I can pay £1,900 for one, or £750 + exam - but that's two months' wages. I need to find a tutor locally or post handwritten work and get it marked, because I can't effectively use any of the methods invented for painfully inserting maths symbols and miniature numbers (eg cubed) in essentially a Word document, and i can't bear videos or video lessons. I'm fine working out of books and teaching myself, but have nobody to explain it to me when I go wrong. No teachers I can find near me will teach adults. I just stupidly hoped coronavirus would finally lead some options. If I sound desperate, I have been looking in vain for ten years. It has to not be limited by geographic region. Thanks!
 
control+shift p = superscript
control+shift b = subscript

well is in LibreOffice Writer anyway but yes good luck

Eta: I'm sure I remember that Word has an equation editor which seems to work ok.

Take your point about videos - I normally hate them because the information-given/time-taken ratio is so low, but I'm sure there are good ones out there. Might be worth trying to find a good one.

It depends if you specifically want an A-level certificate and what level you are at now, but the Open University maths degree starts quite gently with pretty much A-level recap modules, particularly if you start with the MU123 module... you can do a quick test to see if you're ready: Q31 | BSc (Hons) Mathematics | Open University

It wouldn't be cheaper that the figures you mention though... and all online/distance learning is going to have videos and video lesson nowadays! Not sure there is any way round that, a private in-person tutor will always be way more expensive.
