Ask an expert – answers when you need them

Ask an expert on science and maths

It’s natural to have questions after a school lesson or while you are revising.

We love answering your questions!

All our tutees have free access to ‘Ask an expert’, where John will happily reply to any science or maths questions you have 24/7 via text, Skype or email (your choice). The aim is to make things clearer for you outside of lesson time or a tutoring session.

We also support parents and guardians who are helping their children to learn, perhaps through home education (sometimes called home schooling) or online school.

Questions you might ask*:

“Can you explain how DNA replication works, please?”,
“Can you help me understand what this exam question is asking?”
“What’s wrong with my answer here?”
“Can you help me understand this IGCSE topic so I can help my home-educated child?”

How it works:

1.Get in touch to ask about signing up (details below)
2. Subscribing to ‘Ask an expert’ costs £25 per month (it’s FREE for our all our tutees)
3. Start sending us questions on Skype, WhatsApp, text or email!
Send your question any time of the day or night and we will reply within 24 hours (and often within the hour).

Here are some students we’ve helped:

Ask an expert on science and maths — ‘Ask an expert’ for help with any topics day or night via Whatsapp, text, email or Skype (shown).

You might also ask us to:

Clarify something you’ve been taught
Give feedback on your answer to an exam paper question or explain a mark scheme
Offer advice on how to approach questions to get all the marks

*Obviously we cannot help with assessed work, but we can definitely help you to understand the surrounding topics, or answer similar questions. 😊

More details on ‘Ask an expert’…

‘Ask an expert‘ offers text-based Q&A with a PhD-qualified scientist and tutor
It can work alongside tutoring, or alongside schooling (or home schooling) to give extra reassurance.
Fast, friendly answers to any questions you have about topics.
Added reassurance and confidence of “someone else to ask”.
It works through email, SMS, WhatsApp or Skype (preferred)
We support AO1, AO2 and AO3 assessment outcomes
Catering for GCSE and A-level
Covering Maths, Physics, Chemistry and biology
Subscribers often treat it a bit like a helpline for A-level biology, or a helpline for GCSE maths.
‘Ask an expert’ is FREE for all of Woolton Tutors’ one-to-one and masterclass students
Or you can subscribe to ‘Ask an expert’ separately (for £25 per month)

Please get in touch to discuss. Speak to you soon 🙂

   Dr John has gave my daughter so much confidence. She is thoroughly enjoying her lessons online. My daughter uses her lessons to get answers to all her misconceptions and get a tailored learning experience. Dr John is a very skilled educator who has helped my daughter to understand various concepts of biological science. His teaching style has been perfect for her and she actually looks forward to the sessions. I would highly recommend Dr John to any biology student.

   John is an excellent tutor who is extremely good at tailoring lessons to the student's level. He responds well to any areas of need identified by the student and he is also proactive in guiding the student to improve in areas where he sees a need. My daughter found him very pleasant, supportive and reassuring, and she saw a clear improvement in her grades with his guidance.

   Having John as a Tutor for A-Level Biology was a great experience. During our online lessons I improved not only in my comprehension of the study of Biology but also heavily in how to approach and answer A-Level Biology questions which as we all know is the key to A-Level Biology. John's methods help to build understanding and intuitiveness when studying the subject of Biology whilst building great camaraderie. All his help through online tutoring was sincerely appreciated and I look forward to using the knowledge learnt throughout my healthcare career.

   My son has really engaged in his online A-level biology tutoring with John. He says John’s way of teaching and explaining things have really helped him understand the subject a lot better . I can see his confidence boosted which is delivering great progress too. I’d highly recommend John.

   I would highly recommend John to anyone looking for a science tutor. His sessions with my son have increased my Y10 son’s enthusiasm for and confidence in all 3 sciences. In 2 terms his Grades have already gone from achieving 5,4,5 to 6,6,8.  It’s wonderful to see him thriving and I genuinely believe a large part of that is due to working with John.

   Oh wow!! I really can’t praise Dr John’s on line tutoring service high enough. Dr John is extremely professional and an incredible tutor. My daughter has gone from getting 4’s in her science subjects to now getting an 7s & 8s in her last tests.. and this is all due to Dr John’s tutoring style and the hard work and dedication from both student and tutor.
On line tutoring also really works too!! I actually feel it’s much better than having a face to face session as you have the comfort of being in your own home and takes away the logistics of having to travel after school in the evenings. This is also with the same high standards of tutoring being delivered. My daughter is wanting to continue on line tutoring with Dr John through her A levels. If your thinking about getting an on line tutor, without hesitation I’d say go for it!!
