How much does a Science tutor cost in the UK?

Private Science tutors in the UK typically charge between £30 and £65 per hour, depending on the level and whether they teach Combined Science or separate sciences.

As a rough guide:

• GCSE Combined Science (Double Award): £30–£50/hr
• GCSE Triple/Separate Sciences (Biology, Chemistry, Physics): £35–£60/hr
• A-Level Sciences: £40–£70/hr

Tutors who cover all three separate sciences tend to charge more than those who specialise in one or two. For A-Level, Chemistry and Physics specialists often command the highest rates because the subjects require the deepest subject-specific knowledge.

On TutorLab, every tutor sets their own rate and it is visible on their profile before you make contact — no agency commission on top. Many tutors offer a short introductory session at a lower rate so you can assess the fit before committing to regular sessions.
