What Affects the Cost?

Tutoring costs in Dundee depend primarily on the tutor's qualifications (QTS or subject-specific degree), teaching experience, and subject specialism. Advanced subjects like Higher Maths and sciences command higher rates. Exam preparation (National 5s, Highers) typically costs more than regular subject support. Session location—face-to-face at home or online—can affect pricing. Regular package discounts are common; many tutors offer reduced rates for weekly recurring sessions booked in blocks.

Money-Saving Tips

Book multiple sessions weekly for package discounts (up to 15% off hourly rates). Group sessions with friends reduce individual costs. Online tutoring is often cheaper than face-to-face. Book well in advance for exam prep to secure better rates and availability.

Frequently Asked Questions

What's included in a typical tutoring session?

A standard one-hour session includes subject teaching, worked examples, interactive problem-solving, and homework guidance. Most tutors provide follow-up notes or resources. Some may prepare bespoke materials or past paper practice depending on the student's needs and exam dates.

Do tutors in Dundee offer trial sessions?

Many tutors offer a discounted first session (£10–15) or a free 15-minute consultation to assess the student's needs and check compatibility. This is a good opportunity to discuss specific goals, learning style, and scheduling before committing to regular sessions.

Are there seasonal price variations for exam preparation?

Yes. Rates often increase during peak exam season (January–May for Highers). Tutors may offer intensive crash-course rates or premium pricing for last-minute bookings. Booking early in the academic year typically secures better availability and standard rates.

What's the difference between tutoring rates for Nationals vs Highers?

Higher-level qualifications (Advanced Higher, university entrance prep) typically cost 20–30% more than National 4 & 5 support because they require specialist expertise. University exam prep (UCAT, BMAT) commands premium rates due to tutor specialisation and higher demand.
