Maths, Physics, and Chemistry tutor in Edinburgh

I’m Saskia, a dedicated Chemistry tutor in Edinburgh, and I’m in my final year of Chemical Physics at the University of Edinburgh. With years of focused study and tutoring experience, I explain challenging ideas in Chemistry, Maths, and Physics in clear and practical ways.

I achieved AAAA at A-level in Maths, Chemistry, Physics, and Further Maths. Since then, I have built on this strong foundation through advanced university study and hands-on tutoring. My lessons combine subject knowledge with proven strategies for learning. Parents describe me as reliable and professional. Students appreciate how I make difficult topics easier to understand.

As a committed Chemistry tutor in Edinburgh, I help students prepare for SQA National 5, Higher, and Advanced Higher exams. I also support learners working towards GCSE and A-level qualifications. My teaching style is flexible and adapts to each student’s needs. Lessons are paced carefully to ensure steady progress, with a focus on building both knowledge and confidence.

My approach is supportive and structured. I encourage questions and active participation so students feel comfortable and motivated. I use past exam questions to build exam technique and reduce stress before assessments. By focusing on problem-solving skills as well as subject content, I help students feel prepared and confident on exam day.

If you are looking for a results-driven Chemistry tutor in Edinburgh, I would be delighted to support your child’s learning. With my subject expertise, tutoring experience, and commitment to helping students succeed, I can guide them towards their best possible results.

Here’s how we ensure you’re in safe hands:

I have tutored students on secondary, GCSE and A-level content for the past 3 years.

A structured approach to me is very important, with an ordered plan taking into account the student’s strengths and the content they must cover allowing for relaxed and manageable sessions. Setting goals at the beginning of each session is also important, to keep the student on track and allow them to see the progress which has been made, encouraging confidence.

I recognise that each individual has a different way of learning and applying their knowledge. I always make sure to explain concepts and methods in a range of ways so that a student can find the way which works best for them and gives them the most confidence. As well as this, I make sure that pace followed is suited to the student.

Creating an open, supportive environment for learning is very important, and so I make sure to encourage students to ask questions throughout. If a student is unsure on a question, my first approach is always to ask them questions about the problem which will help them get to the answer themselves, encouraging their confidence in ability.

A focus on problem solving is also very important, and I find it is crucial to attempt exam questions with a student to make these less intimidating by attempting in a stress-free environment, and encourage the breaking down of a more complicated problem into smaller, more approachable parts. I find that for this it is important to encourage a student to analyse questions before attempting them, highlighting key words which may be helpful.
