Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

We're in Great Wakering and aiming for a grammar school like Southend High. Can a tutor help with this?

Absolutely. The entrance standards for local grammar schools are very high, and our tutors can provide the targeted support your child needs. They can help deepen your child's subject knowledge in Biology, Chemistry, and Physics and work on the exam techniques required to perform well under pressure.

My child wants a STEM career. Can a tutor help them get the grades for a top university?

Yes. Gaining a place on a competitive STEM course at a Russell Group university starts with excellent GCSE and A-Level grades. Our science tutors can help build that strong foundation, ensuring your child has the deep subject knowledge and confidence needed to secure a place on their chosen A-Level pathway and beyond.

What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?

We want to make sure you find the perfect match for your child. If you don't get on with your tutor for any reason after the first lesson, just email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor.

How do I pick the right Science tutor for my child?

It's easy to find a great fit. You can filter tutors by subject specialism, experience, and price. Every tutor has a detailed profile with a personal bio, student reviews, and an introductory video, so you can get a real sense of their teaching style before you book.

How much does online Science tutoring cost?

Our tutors set their own hourly rates, so prices vary depending on their experience and qualifications. You can see the price clearly on each tutor's profile, allowing you to find an expert tutor who fits your family's budget.

How do online lessons actually work?

Our online classroom has everything your child needs for a great lesson. It includes video chat, an interactive whiteboard for solving problems together, and a space to share documents. It’s a simple and effective way for your child to learn one-to-one.

How can a tutor help my child build confidence in Science?

Sometimes, a lack of confidence is the biggest barrier to progress. In a one-to-one session, your child is the sole focus. This gives them a safe space to ask questions without feeling embarrassed, work at their own pace, and celebrate small wins, which all helps to build their self-belief.

Are the tutors qualified to teach my child's Science level?

Yes. We handpick the best tutors from across the UK, and we only accept 1 in 8 who apply. All tutors are background-checked, and you can see their specific qualifications and experience—from GCSE and A-Level to degree level—on their profile.

Can I find a tutor for a specific science like Biology, Chemistry or Physics?

Definitely. Many of our tutors are specialists in one or two of the sciences. You can easily search specifically for a Biology tutor, a Chemistry tutor, or a Physics tutor to ensure your child gets expert help in the exact area they need it most.

How long is a typical tutoring session?

Most sessions are an hour long, which gives enough time to cover a topic in detail without your child losing focus. However, you can discuss lesson length directly with your tutor to find what works best for your child's schedule and learning style.

How will I know if my child is making progress?

You'll see it in their confidence and hear it in the way they talk about their subject. Tutors provide regular feedback on your child's progress, and you can message them at any time to discuss how things are going. Of course, the real proof is often in their schoolwork and exam results.

Do you only offer academic subjects, or can you help with other skills?

We offer a huge range of subjects! Alongside core curriculum topics like Science and Maths, our tutors can teach practical skills like coding and music theory, or even help your child learn a new language or how to play the guitar.
