 Unlock your potential in science with expert 1-to-1 tuition.


Science doesn’t have to feel complicated. With the right support, it can be exciting, rewarding, and—yes—even fun! That’s exactly what Science Made Easy is all about.


I’m Peter Schofield, a dedicated science tutor with over 25 years of classroom teaching experience. I’ve helped thousands of 11–16 year olds discover their confidence, raise their grades, and achieve results they never thought possible. Now, I bring all that expertise directly to you through personalised, one-to-one tutoring.


 With the right teaching, every student can thrive. I believe in breaking down complex topics into easy-to-understand steps, building confidence at every stage. 


My goal? To make science simple, achievable, and even enjoyable.

How can we work together?

 Getting started with Science Made Easy is simple:


  1. Let’s Talk First
    The first step is a friendly call—either on the phone or by FaceTime. This is where we chat about your learning goals, challenges, and ambitions. I’ll get to know how you learn best and what you’d like to achieve.
  2. Tailored Support Plan
    Together, we’ll decide how much support is right for you. Most students choose a weekly one-hour session per subject over the school year, but other options—such as more intensive blocks or less frequent check-ins—are always available.
  3. Focused, Personalised Lessons
    Every session is designed around you. We’ll build confidence, strengthen knowledge, and make sure you feel fully prepared for exams and classroom success.
  4. I Come to Your Home
    Students learn best in their own home environments.

Frequently Asked Questions

 

Where do lessons take place?
All lessons are held in your own home, or occasionally via FaceTime or Zoom call; making them convenient and flexible for students. 


Do you cover all exam boards?
Yes. I’m experienced with all the main UK exam boards, including AQA, Edexcel, and OCR. Lessons are tailored to the specific requirements of your child’s course and exam style.


Can I book lessons for more than one science subject?
Absolutely. Many students study Combined Science, while others take the separate sciences—Biology, Chemistry, and Physics. Sessions can focus on one subject or rotate between them, depending on what’s needed.


How long is each session?
The most common choice is a one-hour weekly session per subject. However, this can be adjusted to suit individual needs, from shorter booster sessions to more intensive revision blocks.


What age group do you work with?
I tutor students aged 11–16 years, covering Key Stage 3 and GCSE science.


Do you provide resources or homework?
Yes. I provide targeted resources, practice questions, and (where helpful) homework tasks to reinforce learning between sessions. These are tailored to each student’s progress.


How do payments work?
Tuition is charged at £45 per hour, or £40 per hour if you book a block of 10 sessions in advance. Payments can be made securely by bank transfer.


What if we need to cancel a lesson?
Life happens! If you give at least 24 hours’ notice, we can reschedule your session at no extra cost.


How do we get started?
The first step is a free, no-obligation call to discuss your child’s learning objectives. From there, we’ll create a tailored tutoring plan.
