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.

Plenty of Guntur families start worrying about science only when Intermediate is around the corner. By that stage a child's way of writing answers has already set. The middle-school years are when a single subject slowly splits into physics, chemistry and biology, and when a student learns to answer either precisely or loosely. The right tutor for these years works from the book in your child's bag: the State syllabus text that runs up to SSC, the CBSE books, or the texts an ICSE school has picked. NXTutors finds two or three science tutors who know that board and can reach your locality. Fees are on the shortlist before you meet anyone, and the opening class is a free demo.
The CBSE and ICSE sections here were written by Aaditya Kashyap. A tutor's focus moves on each year, and parents can keep track with one simple check at every stage:
| Class | Focus | Check |
|---|---|---|
| 6 and 7 | Textbook activities, from NCERT's Curiosity series or the State book, written up as a sentence and a sketch with labels | Is the proper scientific term used? |
| 8 | Physics, chemistry and biology treated as three subjects; first numericals and word equations | Is there a unit beside every number? |
| 9 | A steep step up: motion and its graphs, matter and the cell in the same year | Is each weak chapter put right inside a month? |
| 10 | Every chapter aimed at the board paper and its marking | Has your child written a whole section against the clock? |
Until Class 10 a single tutor for all three sciences is usually the sensible choice, since that one person can tell whether a wrong numerical comes from weak arithmetic or a misunderstood idea. The national science home tutor page explains our matching, and the Class 9 science tutor page deals with the year that surprises so many students.
SSC is the public examination that the Board of Secondary Education, Andhra Pradesh holds at the close of Class 10. The board decides and revises its own science scheme, so rather than describing it here we point you, and your tutor, to bse.ap.gov.in. The board places model question papers, blueprints and weightage tables there for the coming examination, including a 2027 set. Between them they show which chapters weigh most, which question forms appear and how a full answer should look.
Other SSC and Intermediate subjects are on our AP board tutors in Guntur page.
Eighty marks come from the board paper. The remaining twenty are the school's, split evenly into periodic tests, multiple assessment, the portfolio and practical-based enrichment, 5 marks each. The five units are far from equal:
| Unit | Marks | Chapters | Stress |
|---|---|---|---|
| Chemical Substances | 25 | Reactions and equations; acids, bases, salts; metals and non-metals; carbon compounds | Balancing and naming |
| World of Living | 25 | Life processes; control and coordination; reproduction; heredity | Diagrams and the order of a process |
| Effects of Current | 13 | Electricity; magnetic effects | Numericals with units |
| Natural Phenomena | 12 | Light; the eye; the colourful world | Ray diagrams |
| Our Environment | 5 | One chapter | Quick definitions, never skipped |
Looked at by skill, recall and understanding make up 50% of the marks, applying ideas 30% and analysis or evaluation 20%. Chapter-wise help is in our CBSE Class 10 science notes, and the Class 10 science tutor page sets out a board-year plan.
In the 2026-27 sample paper, 20 questions earn one mark apiece, a blend of multiple-choice and assertion–reason. There are then six two-mark answers, seven three-mark answers, three four-mark items set on a case or source, and three five-mark long answers. Practice differs by type. One-markers want speed with accuracy. Short answers want as many separate points as marks. Case items reward reading the passage or data slowly before answering. Long answers need a diagram or equation with tidy points around it. Use only the board's sample papers and marking schemes from cbseacademic for practice.
Three topics are left to internal assessment in 2026-27 and do not appear on the board paper: evolution, the periodic arrangement of elements, and the set of ideas covering electromagnetic induction, generators and electric motors. Each reappears in Class 11, so learn them well, but spend the revision weeks on board chapters. Board questions also lean on 14 listed experiments, so a well-kept practical file is revision too.
The main exam is compulsory. Afterwards, eligible students may take an optional extra attempt to improve as many as three subjects, science included. Its dates belong to cbse.gov.in alone, and the sensible approach is to treat the main exam as decisive. Our board-year planner lays out the months.
The Class 9 curriculum for 2026-27 uses NCERT's newer textbook, Exploration, examined out of 80 with 20 internal marks. The matter unit is weighted 27, the living world 25, motion, force, work and sound 23, and Earth as a system 5. A notebook handed down from an older sibling belongs to the previous book, so the tutor should teach from the current chapters.
An ICSE Class 10 candidate writes three science papers. CISCE sets Physics, Chemistry and Biology separately, and each carries its own internal marks. Schools pick textbooks inside the council's syllabus, so tuition should track those books and CISCE specimen papers, not an NCERT scheme. Exact definitions and fully worked numericals earn the marks. ICSE-experienced tutors can be slower to find, so say so at the start; online teaching widens the choice.
For a middle-school child, science normally falls between school and the evening meal, so the tutor's journey has to be short and reliable. Six Guntur localities show what to arrange; tutors are listed area by area on our Guntur page.
Nagarampalem lies near Brodipet, a mix of houses and small apartment buildings; send the street, the nearest familiar circle and a number to ring if the gate is shut. Around Chuttugunta circle and Chuttugunta Road, many parents work office hours, so an early-morning, late-evening or weekend slot with a brief written note afterwards is often easier.
Koritepadu is largely independent houses on quiet streets, and homes there often have two children at school; one tutor can see both in a single visit if you list both classes and boards. In neighbouring Vinayak Nagar the streets look alike, so share the cross number, the colour of the gate and a map pin.
Residents call Chandramouli Nagar green, with wide roads; the road name and a nearby landmark generally do the job. In Brindavan Gardens, where many families live in flats, add the block, floor and flat number to the street.
Zone pages for Lakshmipuram and Koritepadu and Brindavan Gardens and Pattabhipuram give more tips, and our Guntur home tuition guide covers each part of the city.
Whichever board your child sits, these are the places where neat work gains marks and rushed work loses them:
At the free demo, ask the tutor to take this week's school chapter and notice whether these habits come up without prompting. Our demo class checklist gives more pointers. If the first tutor does not suit, another from your shortlist gives the next demo, and a later change of tutor is free.
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. Rates are set by each tutor. For Classes 6 to 10, ask how the year will be split between fresh chapters and revision, and whether one weekly class could run online. You see every fee before the demo; our Guntur home tuition fees guide lists more to ask.
Send us the class and board, the part of science your child finds hardest, your locality and a landmark, and which afternoons or evenings are open. Two or three science tutors come back with their fees, and you invite one to a free demo. Where nobody suitable can come at that hour, we suggest online or part-online lessons. Tutors who join go through an ID check; the Verified badge appears only after the ID check is complete (how the ID check works). For Intermediate and Class 11–12 subjects, see physics, chemistry and biology in Guntur. Elsewhere in Andhra Pradesh, compare science tutors in Vijayawada and in Visakhapatnam.
Guntur science teachers who want students near home can check open requests on Guntur tuition jobs.
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. Each Guntur science tutor sets their own fee. Ask how the year will be split between new chapters and revision, and whether one weekly class can be online.
After a Guntur family asks, NXTutors sends two or three science tutors who know the board and can reach the locality, each with a fee shown. You choose one for a free demo. If the fit is wrong, another shortlisted tutor gives the next demo, and switching tutor later is free as well.
A Guntur tutor can find SSC science model question papers, blueprints and weightage tables on bse.ap.gov.in, the site of the Board of Secondary Education, Andhra Pradesh. The board has posted a set for the 2027 examination. Planning weeks around the weightage table, and practising timed sections from Class 9, keeps preparation close to the real paper.
Yes, a Guntur child can hear science explained in Telugu and still write every answer in English. A good tutor uses whichever language unlocks the idea, then insists on the textbook's English terms in written work, so the answer sheet matches the language of the paper. Labelled diagrams help the new words stick.
For Guntur students, the 20 internal marks in CBSE Class 10 science come in four equal parts of 5: periodic tests, multiple assessment, the portfolio and practical-based subject enrichment. The other 80 marks come from the board paper, where Chemical Substances and World of Living carry 25 each.
Three CBSE Class 10 science topics are assessed only in school in 2026-27: evolution, the periodic arrangement of elements, and the ideas around electromagnetic induction, generators and motors. They return in Class 11, so a Guntur tutor should teach them well but spend board revision weeks on the examined chapters.
A Guntur Class 9 student should drop an older sibling's notes because CBSE's 2026-27 course follows NCERT's newer book, Exploration. Its units are weighted differently: matter 27, the living world 25, motion, force, work and sound 23, and Earth as a system 5, out of 80 with 20 internal marks.
An ICSE Class 10 student in Guntur writes three science papers, because CISCE examines Physics, Chemistry and Biology separately, each with internal marks. Schools choose their own textbooks within the syllabus, so the tutor should follow those books and CISCE specimen papers. Tutors with ICSE experience can take longer to find.
Koritepadu and Vinayak Nagar families should share clear directions and both children's details before the first visit. In Koritepadu, where many homes have two schoolchildren, give both classes and boards so one tutor can teach them back to back. In Vinayak Nagar, where streets look alike, add the cross number, gate colour and a map pin.
Near Chuttugunta in Guntur, many parents keep office hours, so science tuition often works better early in the morning, late in the evening or at weekends. Ask for a tutor who arrives at a fixed time and leaves a short note on what was covered. Some families mix weekday online classes with a weekend home visit.
Tell us the class, board and your area. We share two or three matched tutors, and the first class is a free demo.
