Tutors who join go through an ID check. Tell us the class, board and your area: we share two or three matched tutors, each with their fee, and the first class is a free demo, at home or online.
Book a free demo classAcross NXTutors, most home-tuition sessions fall between ₹800 and ₹2,500 an hour; Classes 11–12, IB/IGCSE and JEE/NEET sit toward the upper end; specialists for IB HL or JEE Advanced can charge more. Tutors set their own fee, and you see each tutor's fee before the demo class.
Monthly example: 3 one-hour classes a week ≈ ₹9,600–₹32,500 a month (12–13 classes at ₹800–₹2,500 an hour). An example, not a quote: your tutor's own fee decides the real figure.

Science in the school years is three subjects sharing one notebook. Physics brings numericals, chemistry brings equations, biology brings diagrams and exact vocabulary, and a child who is shaky in one strand can hide it until Class 10. In Ahmedabad there is a further question: is your child reading an NCERT book, an ICSE text or the Gujarat board's syllabus, and in which language? NXTutors matches two or three science tutors to that answer and to your neighbourhood. You see each tutor's fee before you meet, and the first lesson is a free demo.
Aaditya Kashyap writes the CBSE and ICSE science sections of this page. Three syllabuses are common across the city, and each asks something different of a tutor.
NCERT books throughout. Classes 6 and 7 use the activity-led Curiosity series, and Class 9 this session moves to the new Exploration book. The Class 10 board paper combines biology, chemistry and physics in one sitting.
CISCE examines Class 10 science as three separate papers, Physics, Chemistry and Biology, each with internal assessment of its own. Schools choose their own textbooks within the syllabus, so the tutor has to work from your child's books and CISCE specimen papers.
The Gujarat Secondary and Higher Secondary Education Board sets the syllabus and conducts the SSC exam at the end of Class 10. We keep to general advice: name the medium, Gujarati or English, and ask for a tutor who teaches from the board's prescribed textbook. Take the exam scheme and dates only from gseb.org.
Until the board year one tutor for all three strands is usually the sensible arrangement, because the same person can see when a physics numerical is failing on algebra. The national science home tutor page explains our approach elsewhere; see also the Class 8 and Class 9 science tutor pages.
| Unit | Marks | What regular practice looks like |
|---|---|---|
| Chemical Substances: Nature and Behaviour | 25 | Balancing equations, reaction types, acids, bases and salts |
| World of Living | 25 | Labelled diagrams and process answers in the right order |
| Effects of Current | 13 | Circuit numericals with units on every line |
| Natural Phenomena | 12 | Ray diagrams with arrows and correct conventions |
| Our Environment | 5 | Short, precise answers with one example each |
Seen by strand, biology carries 30 marks and chemistry and physics 25 each. The school adds 20 internal marks in four equal parts: periodic assessment, multiple assessment, a portfolio and subject enrichment through practical work. By skill, half the paper tests knowledge and understanding, 30% tests application, and 20% asks for analysis and evaluation. Chapter notes are in our CBSE Class 10 science notes.
The 2026-27 sample paper has 39 questions in a three-hour paper. Twenty are one-mark items, multiple-choice and assertion–reason. Six short answers are worth 2 marks and seven are worth 3. Three case- or source-based questions carry 4 marks each, and three long answers carry 5. Each format rewards a different habit: one-mark items reward careful reading, two-markers a definition plus an example, three-markers three separate points, case questions reading the passage before reaching for theory, and five-markers a diagram or equation followed by four or five points.
For 2026-27, three areas are assessed formatively by the school and do not appear in the board paper: the electric motor, electromagnetic induction and the generator; evolution; and the periodic classification of elements. They still feed internal marks and come back in Class 11, so they are taught, just not revised in the final weeks. The curriculum lists 14 experiments, and board questions draw on them, which makes the practical file part of revision.
The main board exam is compulsory for every Class 10 student. An optional later exam allows eligible students to improve up to three subjects, and science can be one. Dates for 2027 are not out yet, so rely on cbse.gov.in and prepare for the main exam as the one that counts.
| Period | Focus | Paper practice |
|---|---|---|
| April to July | Chapters in school order; habits for diagrams and equations | One sample-paper section after each chapter, marked to the official scheme |
| August to October | Weaker strand given an extra slot each week | Case-based questions every fortnight |
| November to December | Full syllabus rotation | Complete three-hour papers, one strand reviewed in depth each week |
| Pre-board months | Mistake notebook and weakest chapters | Older board papers as extra practice, plus recent competency questions |
CBSE posts sample papers and marking schemes on cbseacademic ahead of the exam; they remain the surest guide to the current design. The Class 10 board-year planner maps every subject month by month, and the Class 10 science tutor page covers matching for this year.
Younger children usually study between school and dinner, so a short and predictable journey matters more than anything. Compare tutors near you on our Ahmedabad page.
| Neighbourhood | Homes | Getting there | Timing tip |
|---|---|---|---|
| Paldi | Independent houses, some from the Art Deco period, beside apartment complexes and builder floors | Paldi station on the Red Line, between Gandhigram and Shreyas; tight lanes favour two-wheelers | Early evening, before traffic builds towards the bridges |
| Vastrapur | Apartments around the lake, with bungalows in some lanes | Blue Line at Gurukul Road, Doordarshan Kendra or Thaltej, then an auto | Weekend mornings are calmest near SG Highway |
| South Bopal | Almost entirely flats in modern gated complexes | BRTS Route 17 from Nehru Nagar; no metro | Late afternoon; some complexes issue a visitor pass |
| Naranpura | Budget blocks, mid-segment societies and large bungalows | Vijay Nagar station on the Red Line | Start before the evening crowd at Vijay Char Rasta |
| Khokhra | Apartments, independent houses and some villas on former mill land | Maninagar station, or Apparel Park and Amraiwadi on the Blue Line | Mid-evening, clear of the roads towards Maninagar |
| Vastral | Mostly newly built apartment buildings, some villas | Three Blue Line stations: Vastral Gam, Nirant Cross Road and Vastral | Outside office hours on the ring road |
Where the nearest station is some way off, a tutor who already teaches in the same zone is usually the most dependable choice for a weekday class.
| Where marks go | The habit to build |
|---|---|
| Everyday words in place of scientific terms | Write "alveoli" and "oesophagus", never "air sacs" or "food pipe" |
| Equations without state symbols | Add (s), (l), (aq) or (g) whenever the question asks for them |
| Ray diagrams with bare lines | Put an arrow on every ray; draw virtual rays dotted |
| Heredity ratios with no working | Show the cross or Punnett square before the ratio |
| Long answers that ramble | Count the marks, then give that many distinct points |
At the free demo, ask for an ordinary lesson on the current chapter and watch whether the tutor asks for these habits unprompted. Our demo class checklist for parents lists more to look for. If the match is not right, we book a demo with another tutor from your shortlist, and switching later is free.
For Classes 6 to 8, home lessons have a clear edge: a tutor at the table can watch a diagram being drawn, correct a label as it goes on and keep a younger child focused. From Class 9 onwards, online sessions work well for revision, doubt-clearing and timed sample-paper sections, as long as your child can photograph written work for marking. Families on the city's newer edges, and ICSE families who cannot find a nearby specialist for one strand, often keep a home tutor for the weekly routine and add a single online class. The home tutor or online tutor article weighs both.
Across NXTutors, most home-tuition sessions fall between ₹800 and ₹2,500 an hour; Classes 11–12, IB/IGCSE and JEE/NEET sit toward the upper end; specialists for IB HL or JEE Advanced can charge more. Tutors choose their own fees. Within Classes 6 to 10, Class 10 board preparation generally costs more than middle-school support, and the journey to your neighbourhood and the number of weekly lessons also count. You see each fee first.
Let us know the class, the board and medium, the strand your child finds hardest, your neighbourhood and the afternoons that suit you. We send a shortlist of two or three science tutors with fees attached, and you choose one for a free demo class. If nobody suitable can come at that time, we suggest online or mixed lessons. NXTutors is based in Sector 66, Gurugram, and also teaches online throughout India.

Yes. Mention the medium when you ask, and we look for tutors who teach the Gujarat board syllabus in Gujarati from the prescribed textbook. We do not publish a GSEB paper pattern on this page; the board's notices at gseb.org are the source to follow for the SSC exam.
Of the 80 board marks, biology carries 30, while chemistry and physics carry 25 each. By unit, Chemical Substances and World of Living have 25 marks apiece, Effects of Current 13, Natural Phenomena 12 and Our Environment 5. The school adds 20 internal marks in four equal parts.
Evolution, the periodic classification of elements, and the electric motor with electromagnetic induction and the generator are assessed only by the school. Students still learn them for internal marks and for Class 11, but board-revision time is better spent on the chapters the paper actually examines.
Often, yes. ICSE Class 10 science is three papers, Physics, Chemistry and Biology, each with its own internal assessment, and schools pick their own textbooks. The tutor should teach from those books and CISCE specimen papers, not an NCERT plan. Such tutors are fewer, so ask early or consider online classes.
Class 9 now follows NCERT's Exploration book. Matter, its nature and behaviour carries 27 marks; World of living 25; Motion, force, work and sound 23; and Earth as a system 5, making 80, with 20 more from internal assessment. Build the plan from the new chapters rather than older notes.
Yes. Vastral has three Blue Line stations, Vastral Gam, Nirant Cross Road and Vastral, all opened in March 2019, so a tutor can ride the metro and take a short auto ride. Apartment societies usually ask visitors to sign in, so give the gate the tutor's name beforehand.
For most CBSE students, yes. The board paper is one paper with sections for all three strands, and a single tutor can balance them and spot when weak maths is costing physics marks. Bring in a specialist only if one strand keeps dropping marks after a term of steady work.
Tell us the class, board and your area. We share two or three matched tutors, and the first class is a free demo.
