Abdellah M
GCSE Science Tutor
My name is Abdellah, and I have a huge interest in Maths and Science. I loved the subjects when I was in school, and since leaving and moving on to university, I have made use of every chance of working with students and passing on what I learnt to others. As a result, I’ve made the choice to work as a tutor whilst at University, and I couldn’t ask for a better job alongside my own studies. I adapt my teaching style to suit each student’s needs, focusing on what helps them learn best. When I lead lessons, I like to explore different approaches early on and then build a method that works most effec...

However, once I reached university, I developed better study strategies that helped me excel and achieve top marks.

Frequently
asked questions

See all FAQs

Can a Science tutor help my child prepare for A-Levels at local colleges like Harton Academy or South Tyneside College?

Absolutely. Our expert Science tutors can tailor sessions specifically to the A-Level curriculum, helping your child bridge the gap from GCSE to the more demanding topics they'll encounter. They can focus on areas like advanced physics concepts, organic chemistry, or complex biological systems, ensuring your child feels confident and well-prepared for success at local sixth forms.

Will a tutor help my child get into a STEM degree at universities like Durham or Newcastle?

Yes, many of our tutors have experience supporting students with university applications for competitive STEM courses. They can help your child achieve the strong A-Level grades needed, refine their understanding of core scientific principles, and even provide guidance on personal statements or interview preparation, significantly boosting their chances for prestigious universities like Durham or Newcastle.

Is Science tutoring just for school exams, or can my child learn other skills?

While we excel at supporting academic subjects like Science for GCSEs and A-Levels, tutoring isn't limited to exam preparation. Your child could also explore fascinating topics like coding, learn a new language, pick up a musical instrument like the guitar, or develop crucial life skills. Just search for what your child is interested in, and you’ll find an expert tutor ready to help them pursue their passions.

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

We want you and your child to feel completely comfortable. If you don't get on with your tutor after the first session, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor. We'll help you find a better match to ensure your child gets the most out of their learning.

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

We make it easy to find the perfect match. You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and compare their experience and teaching styles. Many tutors also offer a free introductory chat, so you and your child can speak with them directly before committing to a lesson. Our platform also allows you to filter by specific qualifications, experience, and even their approach to teaching.

How much does online Science tutoring cost?

Tutor prices vary depending on their experience and qualifications, but you'll find a range of options to suit your budget. All tutor rates are clearly displayed on their profiles, and there are no hidden fees. You only pay for the lessons your child takes, giving you control over your spending.

How can a Science tutor help my child build confidence?

A one-to-one Science tutor provides a safe, supportive space where your child can ask any question without feeling judged. They'll celebrate small victories, break down challenging topics into manageable steps, and help your child understand that mistakes are part of learning. This personalised encouragement is fantastic for building self-belief and a positive attitude towards Science.

What if my child needs help with a specific Science topic, like balancing chemical equations or genetics?

That's exactly what one-to-one tutoring is for! Your child's tutor will focus precisely on the areas where they need the most support, whether it's mastering tricky equations, understanding complex biological processes, or tackling challenging physics problems. Lessons are completely flexible and adapt to your child's immediate learning goals.

Are the online Science lessons interactive?

Yes, absolutely! Our online classroom is designed for engaging learning. It features an interactive whiteboard, document sharing, and video chat, allowing your child and their tutor to work through problems, draw diagrams, and discuss concepts just as they would in person. It’s a dynamic and effective way to learn Science.

How do I know the Science tutors are qualified and safe for my child?

Your child's safety and learning quality are our top priorities. We have a rigorous vetting process, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Every tutor undergoes a thorough background check, and we verify their qualifications and experience. You can also read detailed reviews from other parents on their profiles, giving you complete peace of mind.

Can an online Science tutor help with exam preparation and technique?

Definitely. Beyond understanding the subject matter, tutors are experts in exam strategies. They can guide your child through past papers, teach effective revision techniques, help with time management during exams, and refine their approach to answering different types of Science questions, ensuring they perform their best when it counts.

How can a Science tutor help my child build confidence?

You can typically find and book a tutor very quickly. Many tutors are available for introductory chats or even first lessons within a day or two, making it easy to get immediate support for your child's Science studies.
