Online GCSE Science Tutors

We cover all GCSE Science subjects including Biology, Chemistry, Physics, and Combined Science (Double Award). Our tutors are specialists in their subject area and familiar with all exam board specifications.

Yes! We have tutors experienced in teaching both Triple Science (separate Biology, Chemistry, Physics GCSEs) and Combined Science. We can match your child with a tutor who specialises in exactly what they need.

Lessons take place on our interactive whiteboard platform with HD video. Tutors can draw diagrams, work through equations, and annotate together with students in real-time. It's highly effective for Science subjects.

Our tutors are familiar with all major exam boards including AQA, Edexcel, OCR, and WJEC. They know the specific requirements and mark schemes for each board.

Browse our GCSE Science tutors by exam board and specialism. Each profile shows their qualifications, university, and reviews. Whether your child needs help with Combined Science or separate Biology, Chemistry, and Physics, you can book a free intro session to check the fit.

Many of our tutors are qualified to teach Biology, Chemistry, and Physics at GCSE level. This is ideal for Combined Science students. For separate sciences at Higher tier, you may prefer a specialist in each subject — we can help you find the right match.

Yes. Our tutors use interactive whiteboards to walk through required practicals, diagrams, and calculations step by step. While students can't do hands-on experiments online, understanding the theory and method behind practicals is what examiners test — and that's where tutoring excels.

The earlier the better, but it's rarely too late. If your child is consistently scoring below their target grade or finding specific topics confusing, a tutor can identify gaps and build confidence. Even a few weeks of focused support before exams can make a real difference.

Most students benefit from weekly sessions throughout Year 10 and 11. We recommend starting with our £15 Starter Pack (4 sessions) to establish a rhythm and see early progress. In the run-up to mocks and real exams, some parents increase to twice-weekly for intensive past-paper practice on trickier papers like Chemistry Paper 1 (18 May) or Physics Paper 1 (2 June).

Often yes. Many of our GCSE Science tutors are specialists across all three sciences, especially at GCSE level where the overlap is high (data analysis, equation use, required practicals). If your child needs deeper support specifically in Physics maths or Chemistry calculations, we can match with a specialist who studied that subject at degree level. Tell us where the struggle is and we'll match accordingly.

Triple Science is more content but isn't necessarily harder if your child enjoys science. Most schools set the pathway in Year 9–10. A tutor can help your child assess their capacity, catch up if they've fallen behind on Triple, or thrive within Combined. Book a free 15-minute intro call with one of our GCSE Science tutors and they'll give honest, no-pressure advice based on your child's current level.

After mock results in January is the sweet spot: you have objective data on which papers to focus on, and still 4 months before real exams. Science has three subjects worth of content, so earlier gives the most leverage. With Biology Paper 1 on 12 May, Chemistry Paper 1 on 18 May, and Physics Paper 1 on 2 June, starting weekly sessions by February means ~16 sessions before the first paper.

Our tutors cover all major exam boards: AQA, Edexcel, and OCR. Whether your child is doing AQA Combined Science (Trilogy), Edexcel separate sciences, or OCR Gateway, we have experienced tutors who know the specification inside out.

Look for a tutor who knows your child's exam board (AQA, Edexcel, OCR, or WJEC), can teach across Biology, Chemistry, and Physics for Combined Science, and explains required practicals and calculations clearly. At GCSE, exam technique matters as much as subject knowledge, so prioritise someone who teaches how marks are awarded. Every StudyGuru Science tutor is DBS-checked, and a free 15-minute intro lets you check the fit before booking regular lessons.

GCSE tutoring at StudyGuru starts from just £24 per hour. New customers can claim our £15 Starter Pack—4 sessions at just £15 each regardless of tutor band, saving up to £236. After your starter pack, tutors charge between £24-£45 per hour.
