Why a Good Grasp of Science is So Important
Science isn't just about learning the periodic table or understanding biology; it's the foundation for critical thinking and problem-solving. A strong understanding of science opens up a huge range of opportunities for your child, from pursuing A-Levels at colleges like Nelson and Colne College to studying fascinating subjects like medicine, engineering, or environmental science at university. It gives them the skills to ask questions, analyse information, and understand the world around them, which is invaluable for any career path they choose.

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!

Khaledur worked as a part-time Governor for my son, HR, from Year 9, supporting him in Maths and Science up to and including GCSE. He focused on developing conceptual understanding, mathematical reasoning, and scientific problem-solving through conversation and guided exploration. This approach helped my son become more confident and independent in his studies.

Alan H
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
How do I choose the best Science tutor for my child?
It's a really personal choice. We recommend looking through tutor profiles to see their experience, qualifications, and what other parents have said. You can message tutors for free before booking to ask any questions and get a feel for their approach. It's all about finding someone your child will connect with.
My child attends Pendle Vale College. Can we find a tutor familiar with the AQA Science curriculum?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experienced in teaching specific exam boards like AQA, Edexcel, and OCR. You can check their profiles for this information or send them a message to ask directly about their experience with the curriculum your child is following.
How much does an online Science tutor in Barrowford cost?
The price varies depending on the tutor's experience and level of expertise. Tutors set their own hourly rates, which are clearly displayed on their profiles. This allows you to find an experienced tutor who fits within your family's budget.
What happens if we don't click with the first tutor?
We want to make sure you find the perfect fit, which is 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.
Can a tutor help if my child has lost their confidence in Science?
Yes, this is one of the most common reasons parents come to us. A private tutor provides a safe, encouraging space where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. Rebuilding that confidence is often the first and most important step to seeing their grades and enjoyment improve.
We're hoping my child will go on to study at Nelson and Colne College. Can a tutor help them prepare?
Definitely. Our tutors can help your child build a strong foundation in Science to ensure they meet the entry requirements for college. They can help with GCSE revision, study skills, and building the confidence needed to succeed in their next steps.
How do your online lessons actually work?
Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson. There's video chat, an interactive whiteboard for drawing diagrams or working through problems, and a space to share documents and past papers. It's a simple and effective way to learn one-to-one.
How do you make sure your tutors are safe?
Your child's safety is our top priority. Every tutor must have a valid DBS check and provide professional references. We interview every single tutor and only accept 1 in 8 of those who apply, so you can be sure your child is in safe, expert hands.
My child struggles with Physics but is fine with Biology. Can a tutor just focus on one area?
Of course. That's the great thing about one-to-one tutoring. The lessons are completely tailored to your child. The tutor can spend all their time on the specific topics or subjects your child finds tricky, making each session as effective as possible.
How often should my child have a lesson?
Most families find that one hour a week is ideal for making steady progress. However, it's completely flexible. You might want more sessions in the run-up to an exam, or fewer during the holidays. You can discuss what works best directly with your tutor.
Do you only offer academic subjects like Science, or can you help with other skills?
While we have fantastic tutors for core subjects like Science, Maths, and English, we also offer support in a huge range of other areas. You can find tutors for modern languages, musical instruments like guitar and piano, and even skills like coding and public speaking.
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 to arrange your first lesson. Many tutors can start within a few days, giving your child the support they need right away.
