Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

Can a Science tutor help my child meet the A-Level entry requirements for schools like Tapton or Silverdale in Sheffield?

Yes, many of our experienced Science tutors are familiar with the curriculum demands and can provide targeted support to help your child achieve the grades needed for competitive A-Level programmes. They can focus on specific areas of Biology, Chemistry, and Physics to ensure your child feels confident and prepared for those crucial 7-9 grades.

How can a strong Science foundation help my child with university applications, especially for Russell Group universities like the University of Sheffield?

Achieving top grades in Science is crucial for competitive degree courses like Medicine or Engineering. Our tutors can help your child build a deep understanding, which not only looks great on university applications but also prepares them for the rigour of higher education, giving them a significant advantage when applying to prestigious institutions.

Is online tutoring just for school subjects, or can my child learn other Science-related skills?

While we excel at academic support for Biology, Chemistry, and Physics, our tutors can also help with broader scientific skills like research methods, lab report writing, or even preparation for science competitions, fostering a lifelong love for the subject beyond the curriculum.

What if my child doesn't get along with their first Science tutor?

We offer a 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. We want to ensure you find the perfect match for your child.

How do I choose the best online Science tutor for my child?

You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and compare experience. We recommend looking for a tutor whose teaching style and specialisms align with your child's specific needs, whether it's GCSE Chemistry or A-Level Physics. You can also message tutors directly before booking to discuss their approach.

How much does online Science tutoring typically cost?

Tutor rates vary depending on their experience and qualifications, but you'll find a range of options on our platform to suit different budgets. You can easily see each tutor's hourly rate on their profile before you book a lesson, ensuring complete transparency.

My child feels overwhelmed by Science; can a tutor help them build confidence?

Absolutely. One-to-one tutoring provides a safe, supportive space for your child to ask questions and work through challenges without judgment. Tutors can break down complex topics into manageable steps, celebrating every small victory, which significantly boosts confidence and makes learning enjoyable.

What is the online learning experience like for Science lessons?

Our online classroom is designed for effective learning. It features an interactive whiteboard, document sharing, and video chat, making it easy for your child to work through problems, draw diagrams, and discuss concepts with their tutor, just like in person, but with the added convenience of being at home.

How do you ensure the quality and safety of your online Science tutors?

We take tutor vetting very seriously. We only accept 1 in 8 tutors who apply, all are background-checked, and we verify their qualifications and experience. This rigorous process ensures your child learns from a highly skilled and safe professional who is truly passionate about teaching.
