The Right Science Tutor Makes All the Difference
The best learning happens when your child feels understood. That’s why we’re so selective, accepting only 1 in 8 tutors who apply. Our tutors take the time to get to know your child’s unique learning style and where they need the most help. Whether it’s building a solid foundation in Key Stage 3 science or tackling complex A-Level topics, their tutor will create a supportive space where your child feels comfortable asking questions and making progress at their own pace. Imagine lessons built entirely around your child’s needs. Instead of a one-size-fits-all approach, each session focuses on the exact areas they find tricky, whether that's balancing equations in chemistry or understanding ecosystems in biology. This personalised attention is why 90% of our students improve by at least one grade. Your child gets the focused support they need to turn confusion into confidence and join the 200,000+ happy students who have learned with us. We know family life is busy, so we make tutoring as simple as possible. You can find and message tutors for free, finding someone who fits your child’s needs and your family’s schedule.

Hanan R
Hanan has been an amazing tutor for my daughter over the past few months. She was really struggling with science before, but with Hanan’s support her confidence and understanding have improved so much, and her results are now noticeably better. Hanan is incredibly patient, passionate, and explains things in a clear way that actually makes sense. She genuinely cares about her students and always goes the extra mile to make sure they understand, not just memorise. I couldn’t recommend her enough. she’s a fantastic teacher!

Subham M
Subham is an excellent maths and science tutor. He does not make maths feel intimidating; instead, he focuses on helping students understand the fundamentals properly, which builds confidence and makes problem-solving much easier. He explains concepts clearly and uses strong, practical examples to break down mathematical and scientific problems. This approach greatly supports understanding, and my daughter responds very well to his teaching style and enjoys learning with him.

My child is preparing for the Kent Test. Can a Science tutor help?
Absolutely. While the Kent Test focuses on English, Maths, and Reasoning, a strong foundation in science develops crucial analytical and problem-solving skills. Many of our tutors have specific experience helping students build the core academic confidence needed to succeed in these challenging entrance exams.
We live in West Kingsdown and are looking at local grammar schools. Can a tutor help with this?
Yes, many of our tutors are experienced in supporting students aiming for specific schools. They can tailor lessons to cover the curriculum and skills needed for success at schools in the Kent area, helping your child feel prepared and confident as they work towards their goal.
What if my child doesn't click with their first tutor?
We understand that the right student-tutor relationship is key to success. That's 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.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It includes video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and the ability to share documents. This allows your child and their tutor to work through problems, review homework, and analyse texts just as they would in person.

How can a tutor help my child if they've lost their confidence in Science?
Confidence is often the biggest hurdle. One-to-one tutoring provides a safe, encouraging environment where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. A great tutor will celebrate small wins, break down difficult topics, and help your child see that they are capable of succeeding.

Our tutors cover all aspects of Science, including Biology, Chemistry, and Physics, as well as Combined Science and General Science. You can find specialists for every level, from primary school and KS3 right through to GCSE and A-Level.
