Science isn't just a school subject; it's a foundation for so many exciting futures, especially here in Portsmouth. For your child, mastering topics like the laws of physics, intricate chemical reactions, or complex biological systems means developing crucial problem-solving and analytical skills.

We know how much those grades matter – 90% of students improve by at least one grade with us, and for GCSE Science, we can help improve your child's results by up to 2 grades, giving them the vital edge they need for their future career path in this region and beyond.

I have a BA (hons) in Primary Education from Oxford Brookes University. I have 13 years teaching experienceteaching children from Foundation Stage to Year 6.

Libbiksha C
We’ve been really pleased with the support our daughter has received from Libby. She is patient, encouraging, and explains things in a way that really clicks for her. Her confidence in science has grown so much already, and she actually looks forward to the sessions each week. Although early days, It’s been wonderful to see her progress. We are thrilled to have found Libby and we would definitely recommend her!

Aishat A
Aishat is a great tutor and we’ve been really pleased with the support she’s given my son. He has weekly GCSE Science (AQA) tutoring with her, and she has taken the time to really understand his learning habits. He’s completely comfortable with her, which has made a big difference to his confidence. Aishat is always punctual, responds promptly to messages, and keeps me well informed about my son’s progress. What’s been especially reassuring is that topics she’s covered with him have already come up in his mock exams, and he was able to answer those questions confidently. We’re very happy with the progress he’s making and would happily recommend her.

Amira K
Anabelle really enjoys her science lessons with Amira. She is becoming more confident after every session and often tells us how much she learns in just one hour, which is amazing to see. We are so glad we found Amira. Anabelle is currently in Year 9 and is considering taking Triple Science for her GCSEs, so starting now and continuing next year feels like the perfect approach. Amira has been a fantastic tutor so far. If Anabelle needs some support in maths once she reaches Year 10, I will definitely look to book lessons with Amira again, if she has availability.
