Greg has been tutoring my 13 year old Son.
My Son was way behind his peers in his Year group yet capable of so much more. Greg has been absolutely fantastic with my Son and my Son is much more confident and really engages with Greg. Greg is patient and an amazing tutor. We feel lucky to have found Greg. Thank you so much for.

Sam F
Sam has been truly inspirational for our son, Chester. He really wants to study triple Science for GCSES and struggles with remembering so much information and confidence. Our son is dyslexic and has dyspraxia and constantly struggles with reading accurately and using scientific vocabulary. Sam has so much experience in these areas and has spent time building Chester’s confidence so he can access Physics, Biology and Chemistry successfully. It is giving Chester time to revisit lessons that he feels he needs more time on, as well as practise more challenging skills. Sam has shown extensive knowledge not only in his subjects but also with learning challenges and special educational needs. We cannot thank Sam enough and plan to continue with Chester’s twice weekly lessons. His success has continued with amazing lesson reviews and also the results of Chester’s recent year 10 mock exams. Thank you Sam.

Rai S
Incredible! It’s fair to say that science was never one of my sons favourite subjects. My son has only had a few lessons with Rai so far but we are making it regular to support his GCSE exams.
Rai’s sessions are full of energy and my son has so much more confidence and loves the way Rai explains things. He has already learnt so much!
I would absolutely recommend!

I wanted to share how much we appreciate the extra GCSE Science lessons Alan has been providing. My son has mentioned that the sessions are giving him a really solid understanding of the sciences, especially chemistry, which is helping him a lot with his revision. The one-on-one format is making a big difference—he finds it much easier to concentrate and is learning far more effectively. He’s even remembering things better, which shows how impactful Alan's teaching has been. Thank you for your dedication and support; it’s clearly making a positive difference.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Can a tutor help my child with their application for A-Levels at Thomas Rotherham College?
Yes, absolutely. Many of our tutors have extensive experience helping students with their college applications. They can help your child strengthen their science knowledge and build the confidence needed to excel in interviews and entrance assessments for competitive courses.
My child attends Wales High School. Can we find a tutor familiar with their curriculum?
While our tutors are from all over the UK, they are all experts in the national curriculum, including the specific exam boards used by schools like Wales High School. During your first chat, you can discuss your child's specific syllabus to ensure the tutor is a perfect match.
Can tutoring help improve my child's Science GCSE grade?
Yes, it can make a real difference. In fact, tailored one-to-one support can help improve your child's GCSE results by up to two grades. By focusing on their specific areas of weakness, a tutor can help them understand the material more deeply and feel much more prepared for their exams.
What happens if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect fit. If for any reason you don't get on with your first tutor, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor. It's that simple.
How do I choose the right Science tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and watch their introductory videos. We recommend shortlisting a few and sending them a message to discuss your child's needs before booking. It's all about finding someone your child will feel comfortable with.
How much does an online Science tutor cost?
Prices vary depending on the tutor's experience and qualifications. Each tutor sets their own hourly rate, which is clearly displayed on their profile. This transparency means you can find an amazing tutor who fits your family's budget.
How does online tutoring actually work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs: a video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. It's a simple, secure, and engaging way to learn from the comfort of your own home. All you need is a laptop or computer and a stable internet connection.
How can a tutor help my child build confidence in Science?
Confidence often comes from understanding. Our tutors create a patient and encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. By breaking down tough topics and celebrating small wins, they help turn 'I can't do it' into 'I can'.
Are your tutors background-checked?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every single tutor on our platform has passed an ID check and has an enhanced DBS certificate. We are very selective, accepting only 1 in every 8 tutors who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe hands.
How long does a typical tutoring session last?
Most lessons are one hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can arrange different session lengths directly with your tutor to fit your child's schedule and concentration span.
Is this just for school subjects, or can you help with skills for tech careers like coding?
We offer tutoring in a huge range of subjects beyond the core curriculum. You can find expert tutors for practical skills like Coding, Python, and even music or languages. It's a great way to support your child's hobbies and future career interests.
How quickly can we start lessons?
You can get started very quickly. Once you've found a tutor you like, you can send them a message directly from their profile to arrange your first lesson. Many tutors can start within a couple of days, depending on their availability.
