Science Tutor
Turning curiosity into confident discovery
Expert tuition for every stage
Comprehensive Science tutoring for children aged 7 to 11. This covers foundational topics in science. At this age, our tutors help children develop an understanding of scientific enquiry and a love of experimentation and discovery.
At Key Stage 3, the Science curriculum begins to distinguish more clearly between biology, chemistry, and physics. Our science tutors help students master the content and encourage critical thinking and practical application of scientific principles.
Whether your child is preparing for Combined, Dual, or Triple Science, our GCSE Science tutors can help them improve their exam performance. By addressing any weak areas and focusing on exam technique, our tutoring helps children achieve top grades.
Our A Level and IB Science tutors help children excel in their school exams. With specialist tutors for all three Sciences, our support helps students master advanced curricula and improve their grades.
Specialist Science tutors across Biology, Physics and Chemistry.
We are here to support your child across the science curriculum.
Whatever level at which your child is studying Science, Dukes Tutoring can help. From the foundations of the primary school curriculum to the advanced content of A Level or IB Biology, Chemistry, and Physics, our Science tutors build students’ understanding and confidence.
Whether you’re looking for long-term support over several years or a short-term programme of revision or booster tuition in the run-up to exams, our tutoring is proven to make a difference. We personally match each child with the Science tutor who best fits their goals, requirements and personality.

“I have taught and tutored Maths and Physics for 15 years and Computer Science for the last five years, working across a wide range of settings from state and independent schools in the UK to British international schools in Spain and Thailand. I believe all students want to succeed, but many simply need guidance with the skills and methods needed to achieve their full potential. This is where my experience as a teacher, former head of department and examiner for two exam boards adds great value to our tutoring sessions. I have also prepared students for entrance exams at 11+, 13+ and 16+ and as an Oxford alumni myself, I have also helped with application and interview preparation for Oxbridge candidates. Outside of teaching and tutoring, I love to travel and have visited over 60 countries, with a few more still on my bucket list!”

“I have been teaching chemistry for over 30 years, with most of that time as head of department in a large mixed secondary school. I am very familiar with the AQA, OCR and Edexcel exam boards and also have a lot of experience preparing students for tests beyond A Level such as the Cambridge Chemistry Challenge and the RSC Chemistry Olympiad. For several years I was part of the AQA A Level practical exam writing team. As a sixth form tutor I helped countless students with their UCAS applications and am more than happy to give advice on the writing of personal statements, particularly those for medicine and other courses that require science A Levels. I put a lot of effort into preparing individual lessons for my tutees and welcome the opportunity to set and assess extra work for my students if so desired. I have a huge bank of resources gathered over my teaching career to help students understand and revise this challenging subject. I absolutely love teaching chemistry and see it as a privilege to be able to work alongside students to allow them to gain the confidence and skills necessary to achieve their own success. ”

Milton
“Following completion of my PGCE, I taught across a range of secondary schools in London, spanning both the state and independent sectors. More recently, I have gained extensive experience lecturing undergraduate and postgraduate students at King’s College London, and I am currently completing a PhD in Cardiovascular Biochemistry. Alongside my ongoing commitment to tutoring Biology and Chemistry at GCSE, A level, and IB, including preparation for admissions examinations and interviews, I have a strong interest in advancing digital literacy within secondary and higher education. Beyond academia, you’ll find me playing the piano and reviewing London’s restaurants.”

Nick
“I am an experienced mathematics tutor with over twenty years of teaching across GCSE, iGCSE, A Level, Further Mathematics, a wide range of school entrance exams, and university mathematics admissions tests. I hold a PhD in Mathematics, a PGCE, Advanced Skills Teacher (AST) status, and national leadership qualifications (NPQSL and NPQLTD). I have a strong record of helping students make rapid, often transformational progress, and I specialise in building confidence through clear explanations and a supportive, question-friendly approach. Alongside tutoring, I have recently worked for the DfE-funded Advanced Mathematics Support Programme, where I trained teachers and delivered workshops on university admissions tests, applications and interview preparation. Outside of work, I enjoy time outdoors, especially with my four grown up children who are now at university.”
FAQs
All of the core science subjects: Chemistry, Biology and Physics. We also offer support in other STEAM subjects, such as: computer science, engineering, business, economics and more.
We have specialist Science tutors to teach all school levels – from primary (foundation science / general science) to secondary (GCSE / iGCSE), and beyond (for older students needing subject-specific support with A Levels or the IB).
Help with school coursework and homework in science subjects. We also support with examination preparation, including revision, consolidation of topics, exam techniques, and practice under timed/test conditions (e.g. for GCSE or higher). We tailor all lessons to the individual student’s needs- strengthening weak areas, building conceptual understanding, or stretching higher-ability students.
One-to-one science tutoring provides personalised support focused on a student’s specific subjects, syllabus, and areas of difficulty. Our tutors can quickly identify misconceptions, explain complex ideas clearly, and develop key skills such as problem-solving, data analysis, and structured exam answers. This individual approach builds confidence, improves exam performance, and helps students become more independent and effective learners in science.
