Science Tutor - Making learning memorable
* Book your child in for SUMMER BOOSTER sessions TODAY*- I have had a HUGE increase this year in last minute requests for support, even for the day before the exam...- Many of these young people have been worrying about their GCSEs and A Levels behind closed doors and parents have realised too late that they need support.- If your child is in secondary school or 6th form now and you have any doubt about their independent study skills please consider summer sessions.- I hear all too often that the young people I am working with do not have the skills in order to attempt independent study.

Marie S
Marie is a great teacher. She is really helping my daughter in her upcoming gcse mocks. My daughter felt like she understood the topics (science) more clearly, as Marie took the time to explain in a way that was easyly understood. She us also very patient and is well prepared for lessons.
My daughter is enjoying her lessons and feels more confident about the topics and her exams. Thank you Marie!

My daughter has had a few sessions with Isabella, she is really conscientious and has helped her to really understand the GCSE content and the mark schemes. She is really lovely and you can tell she really cares and is invested in how my daughter does., I wish we would have found her earlier .

Tony M
Tony is an excellent tutor who has supported my child's learning in all of the GCSE science topics. Originally we needed Tony’s help for chemistry revision but this changed over the weeks/months into whatever my child’s needs have been (to include biology and physics). My daughter has really enjoyed Tony’s lessons and his style of teaching and support.

Sheilagh R
Sheilagh is a fun and interactive teacher who has made my daughter laugh while learning for her combined science GCSE. This is a testament to Sheilagh’s teaching ability as I never thought anything to do with science would make my daughter smile. Sheilagh is punctual and reliable and very clear when teaching with an excellent knowledge base. I would definitely recommend her.

asked questions

Is science GCSE hard?
It's true that GCSE Science has its challenges. You're navigating three different science disciplines, along with applying maths skills and recalling practical techniques. However, with a calm, well-planned approach and the right support you can achieve GCSE Science success. We at Tutorful are here to guide you through the whole process and find the right tutor for you.
What is the GCSE science grade?
GCSE Science grading depends on the type of science studied. Separate sciences are graded 9-1 (9 is highest). Combined science, equivalent to two GCSEs, is graded 9-9 to 1-1. Each separate science is worth one GCSE grade. In combined science, the higher grade is always listed first. If this makes you stressed talk to one of our tutors or visit our blog to get more clarity into GCSE Science.
What does GCSE Science involve?
GCSE Science is a comprehensive course that involves studying three core scientific disciplines: Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. Students will develop their scientific knowledge, practical skills, and analytical abilities.
Is it worth getting a tutor for GCSE?
GCSEs are a crucial step in a student's education, and personalised support can make a significant difference. A tutor can provide focused attention, address specific knowledge gaps, and build confidence. If a student is aiming for top grades, struggling with certain subjects, or would benefit from individualised learning, then tutoring can be a worthwhile investment.
How can I help my child with GCSE Science?
Supporting your child through GCSE Science is about creating a positive and effective learning environment. Encourage open communication about their challenges, help them establish a consistent study schedule, and ensure they have access to resources like textbooks, revision guides, and online materials. Celebrating their progress and offering encouragement can also make a big difference.
How many GCSE Science lessons should I take?
The number of GCSE Science lessons a student should take depends on the student's needs and goals. Generally, it is recommended that the student has at least one lesson a week in order to build a good rapport with their tutor and ensure consistent learning.
