I am an enthusiastic and personable Maths and Science tutor with experience tutoring at Higher and Advanced Higher levels in the Scottish Curriculum, and GCSE and A-levels in the English curriculum.

Sam D
I would highly recommend Sam as a physics tutor. She has been teaching my daughter, and the experience has been excellent. Sam is extremely kind, patient, and supportive, which has helped my daughter feel more confident and comfortable with a subject she previously found challenging. Sam explains complex physics concepts clearly and in a way that is easy to understand. She is always well prepared, encouraging, and genuinely invested in her student’s progress. My daughter has not only improved academically but has also developed a more positive attitude toward physics thanks to Sam’s teaching approach. Sam is a dedicated and reliable tutor, and I would strongly recommend her to any parent looking for high-quality physics tuition.

Francis J
Francis has been supporting my son with GCSE Physics and has made a real difference to both his understanding and confidence. Concepts that previously felt difficult are now explained clearly and patiently, and lessons are always well structured and engaging.
Francis is friendly, approachable, and puts my son at ease straight away, which has really helped build confidence and motivation. My son feels much more confident going into his GCSE preparation, and it’s been great to see his progress and growing interest in the subject.I also love that after each lesson I receive a clear summary from Francis outlining what they’ve covered, which is really helpful.

I got a 6 on my IGCSE physics mock and was struggling heavily with the subject, so I decided to take a few lessons with Huw and thanks to his explanations and worksheets, I was able to get a 9 in the actual exam.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child attends St Joseph's College. Can a tutor help with their specific National 5 Physics curriculum?
Absolutely. Our tutors are experienced with the Scottish curriculum, including the SQA National 5 and Higher qualifications. When you search, you can see each tutor's experience and even message them to ensure they're a perfect match for your child's specific schoolwork and goals.
We're aiming for a STEM course at a university like Glasgow. Can a tutor help my child get the required Higher Physics grades?
Yes, that's a very common goal for our students. A dedicated Physics tutor can provide targeted support to help your child master the Higher curriculum, improve their exam technique, and build the confidence needed to achieve the grades required for top university courses.
How do I choose the right Physics tutor for my child?
It's easy to find the perfect fit. You can read reviews from other parents, compare tutor profiles and experience, and even message them before booking to discuss your child's needs. Many tutors also offer a free 15-minute video chat to help you decide.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We know how important the right connection is. That's why we have our first lesson guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.
How much does online Physics tutoring cost in Dumfries?
Our tutors set their own prices, which are displayed clearly on their profiles. Prices typically start from around £15 per hour and vary based on the tutor's experience and qualifications, so you can find an expert who fits your budget.
How do online lessons work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson, including a two-way interactive whiteboard, video chat, and file sharing. Your child can work through complex equations and diagrams with their tutor in real-time, just as they would in person.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident in Physics?
Confidence often comes from understanding. In a one-to-one setting, your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Tutors create a safe, encouraging space where students can tackle tricky topics at their own pace, turning 'I can't do this' into 'I've got this'.
Is tutoring just for school subjects, or can my child learn something different?
While we have thousands of academic tutors, we also have experts in a huge range of other skills! Your child could learn to play the guitar, get into coding with Python, or even learn a new language. There's something for every interest.
Are all the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor on our platform has passed a background check and has been personally vetted by our team. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, so you can have complete peace of mind.
How long are the tutoring sessions?
The standard session length is one hour, which is usually perfect for covering a topic in depth without it being overwhelming. However, you can discuss different session lengths with your tutor to find what works best for your child.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one session a week is ideal for consistent progress, especially when preparing for exams like the Nationals or Highers. You can discuss the best frequency with your tutor based on your child's specific needs and goals.
How can a tutor help my child feel more confident in Physics?
Life happens! Our platform makes it easy to manage your schedule. You can cancel or reschedule a lesson with up to 12 hours' notice directly through your account, giving you the flexibility you need.
