Samer E
Experienced Science tutor
Hi, I’m a Master’s graduate in Biomedical Science from the University of Glasgow, and I’m passionate about helping students achieve their academic goals in a way that’s both fun and effective.Growing up, I found school challenging—balancing coursework with extracurricular activities made it difficult to maintain high grades. However, once I reached university, I developed better study strategies that helped me excel and achieve top marks. This experience has shaped my approach to tutoring: I focus on understanding concepts, not just memorizing theory. I believe that when students grasp the why b...

Sam F
Sam has been truly inspirational for our son, Chester. He really wants to study triple Science for GCSES and struggles with remembering so much information and confidence. Our son is dyslexic and has dyspraxia and constantly struggles with reading accurately and using scientific vocabulary. Sam has so much experience in these areas and has spent time building Chester’s confidence so he can access Physics, Biology and Chemistry successfully. It is giving Chester time to revisit lessons that he feels he needs more time on, as well as practise more challenging skills. Sam has shown extensive knowledge not only in his subjects but also with learning challenges and special educational needs. We cannot thank Sam enough and plan to continue with Chester’s twice weekly lessons. His success has continued with amazing lesson reviews and also the results of Chester’s recent year 10 mock exams. Thank you Sam.

Rai S
Incredible! It’s fair to say that science was never one of my sons favourite subjects. My son has only had a few lessons with Rai so far but we are making it regular to support his GCSE exams.
Rai’s sessions are full of energy and my son has so much more confidence and loves the way Rai explains things. He has already learnt so much!
I would absolutely recommend!

Khaledur R
Khaledur worked as a part-time Governor for my son, HR, from Year 9, supporting him in Maths and Science up to and including GCSE. He focused on developing conceptual understanding, mathematical reasoning, and scientific problem-solving through conversation and guided exploration. This approach helped my son become more confident and independent in his studies.

Alan H
I wanted to share how much we appreciate the extra GCSE Science lessons Alan has been providing. My son has mentioned that the sessions are giving him a really solid understanding of the sciences, especially chemistry, which is helping him a lot with his revision. The one-on-one format is making a big difference—he finds it much easier to concentrate and is learning far more effectively. He’s even remembering things better, which shows how impactful Alan's teaching has been. Thank you for your dedication and support; it’s clearly making a positive difference.

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
My child is at Whitburn Academy and is worried about their National 5s. Can a tutor help with the specific SQA curriculum?
Absolutely. Many of our tutors are experts in the Scottish curriculum and have extensive experience helping students prepare for their SQA National 5 and Higher exams. You can check a tutor's profile to see their specific experience with the SQA.
We're aiming for a competitive STEM degree at Edinburgh or Glasgow. Can we find a tutor with experience in this?
Yes. Many of our tutors are university students or graduates themselves, with first-hand experience of the application process for competitive courses. You can use our filters to find tutors who have studied at specific universities or who specialise in university admissions.
What if my child doesn't click with their first Science tutor?
We know that the right fit is crucial for your child's success. 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 do I choose the right Science tutor for my child?
Every tutor has a detailed profile where you can read about their experience, teaching style, and qualifications. You can also read reviews from other parents and send a message directly to a tutor to ask any questions before you book.
Are the tutors background-checked?
Yes, your child's safety is our top priority. All our tutors have been through an identity check and have a valid DBS check. We are also very selective, only accepting 1 in 8 tutors who apply to our platform.
How much does online Science tutoring cost?
Our tutors set their own hourly rates, which you can see clearly on their profiles. Prices vary based on a tutor's experience and qualifications, so you can find someone who fits your budget.
My child struggles with all three sciences – Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. Can one tutor help with all of them?
Some tutors specialise in one particular science, while others are experienced in teaching General Science or across all three. You can see which subjects a tutor offers on their profile and find the right match for your child's needs.
How can a tutor help my child if they've lost their confidence in Science?
Confidence is key to learning. A one-to-one tutor provides a safe, patient environment where your child can ask questions without feeling embarrassed. They can go back to basics, fill in any gaps, and celebrate small wins to help rebuild your child's self-belief.
How does online tutoring actually work?
It's simple! All lessons take place in our purpose-built online classroom. It has video chat, an interactive whiteboard, and a way to share documents, making it feel just like you're in the same room. All your child needs is a laptop or computer and an internet connection.
How long is a typical tutoring session?
Most lessons are one hour long, which is usually the perfect amount of time to dive into a topic without losing focus. However, you can always discuss different lesson lengths with your tutor to find what works best for your child.
Is tutoring only for academic subjects like Science, or can you help with other skills too?
While we have thousands of amazing academic tutors, we also offer support in a huge range of other areas. You can find tutors for learning a musical instrument like the guitar, developing skills like coding, or even learning a new language.
How quickly can we find a tutor and start lessons?
You can start looking right away. Simply search for your subject, browse tutor profiles, and send a message to those you think would be a good fit. Many parents find a tutor and have their first lesson booked within a day or two.
Have a great first lesson.
Guaranteed.
If things aren’t right with your first lesson just let us know. We’ll pay for
your next lesson with a new tutor – and even help you find them.
