Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

How can a KS3 Science tutor help my child transition from primary school?

Moving from primary to secondary science can feel like a big leap. A KS3 tutor gives one-to-one support, breaking down tricky topics like atoms, cells, or chemical reactions into simple, understandable steps. They help your child adjust from hands-on primary experiments to more detailed secondary science, building confidence along the way.

My child struggles with maths in Science. Can tutoring help?

Definitely. KS3 Science has a surprising amount of maths, especially in Physics and Chemistry. Tutors can guide your child through formula rearrangement, graph interpretation, and data analysis, making sure maths doesn’t hold back their understanding of science.

How will I know if my child is on track for GCSEs?

A KS3 Science tutor gives personalised feedback after each session, highlighting strengths and areas to work on. Unlike general school reports, you’ll get clear insights into how your child is mastering key concepts, helping you feel confident about their preparation for GCSEs.

What’s the difference between Triple and Combined Science?

Triple Science means three separate GCSEs in Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. Combined Science combines all three into two GCSEs. A tutor can strengthen your child’s understanding across all areas, building the foundation and confidence to succeed whichever path they take—and ensuring they’re prepared for A-Levels or science-related careers.

Are your tutors specialists in all areas of KS3 Science?

Yes. Our tutors cover the full KS3 Science curriculum and often have extra expertise in Biology, Chemistry, or Physics. Every tutor is carefully selected - only 1 in 8 applicants make it through - and background-checked, so your child learns from knowledgeable, trustworthy professionals.

Can online tutoring cover practical skills and experiments?

While online sessions can’t replace hands-on experiments, tutors explain the theory behind practicals, help interpret results, and teach how to write clear conclusions. This ensures your child fully understands experiments and develops strong scientific reasoning and communication skills.

How do I know the tutors are high-quality and safe?

Tutorful has a strict vetting process. Only the top 1 in 8 applicants are accepted, and all tutors are background-checked. This means you can trust your child is learning with experienced, professional, and safe KS3 Science tutors.
