Online GCSE Physics Tutors
That parents' evening comment that catches you off guard. A mock result that doesn’t make sense. Or maybe your child just keeps saying they don’t ‘get’ physics. It's a horrible feeling when you can't help with the homework anymore.
But even when you can’t help with the subject, you can still help them. You don't have to figure this out alone. Our Tutor Finder asks a few simple questions, and then we find a GCSE Physics tutor who is the right fit. Not a list to scroll through, just a genuine recommendation.

When physics stops feeling like a problem
The right tutor makes the subject click. Suddenly, concepts like energy and forces make sense in the real world, not just in a textbook. It's about building their confidence, so they can walk into an exam knowing they've got this.
This isn't just about passing a test; it’s about keeping doors open for A-levels or whatever they choose next. We match them with a tutor who knows their specific exam board, so every lesson is relevant.

Thomas D
Full-time Physics Tutor
About me:I am a full time Maths and Physics Tutor with over a decade of experience. I have a passion for challenging traditional ideas and finding new means to help students make their way through an increasingly strained, high pressure education system.I tutor because it allows me to help young people reach their potential in typically difficult subjects, and because it provides a rewarding and intellectually stimulating environment in which to work. A lot of tutors are university students or have a day job, which can draw attention away from their tutoring. I however, as a full time tutor, am...

Sue is a patient , kind and knowledgeable tutor. She has helped me immensely with my physics GCSE and even led me to enjoy the subject which I thought was practically impossible. Over the course of a year, my grades and passion for physics have soared. She is an amazing tutor, and I can’t recommend her enough.

Rai S
Rai has been an excellent tutor for Agastya in both Chemistry and Physics. He explains difficult topics very clearly, is patient, supportive and has a strong focus on exam technique as well as understanding the subject properly.
His teaching gave Agastya much more confidence going into his GCSEs, and we were delighted that he achieved Grade 9 in both Chemistry and Physics. We are very grateful for Rai’s support and would highly recommend him to anyone looking for a knowledgeable and dedicated GCSE science tutor.

Nia J
My son needed some support with physics GCSEs. Nia is really good at communicating to young people and breaking down difficult concepts to make them easy to understand. Nia helped my son's overall understanding and confidence. Physics went from being his weakest science subject to his best in a couple of months with her help. I would have no hesitation in recommending Nia!

After getting a 4 for her Physics mock exam, Cara started tutoring with Viola in preparation for GCSE.Viola was brilliant! She was patient and took the time to understand Cara’s needs. After only 2 months of sessions, Cara earned an 8 in Physics!!! We are thrilled with her results and grateful to Viola for helping her achieve it.

Marc S
Marc has been an excellent tutor for our daughter and has really helped to build her confidence in physics and chemistry. He quickly built a positive rapport with her and by working together they were able to identify and focus on the topics where she needed the most help. He has an infectious enthusiasm for physics and chemistry and this in turn helped to change our daughter’s perception of these subjects as her knowledge and confidence grew. Marc tutored our daughter for very nearly 12 months, up to the point when she took her GCSE exams. He was always very flexible, fitting in extra lessons over holiday periods or moving timeslots where needed and where his timetable would allow.
