Science tuition for a Lucknow child in Classes 6 to 10 has three things to get right. The tutor must teach from the books your child's board prescribes, whether CBSE, ICSE, the UP Board or IGCSE. They must be able to spot which of biology, chemistry and physics is quietly pulling marks down. And they must reach your home at the same hour each week, between school and homework. NXTutors puts forward two or three science tutors who fit on all three counts. Each fee is on the shortlist before you meet anyone, and the opening lesson is a free demo.
Aaditya Kashyap writes the CBSE and ICSE science guidance on this page. The first thing we ask a Lucknow family is the board, because it fixes the textbooks, the shape of the Class 10 exam and the kind of answer that earns marks.
NCERT books throughout. Class 10 ends in one 80-mark science paper split into biology, chemistry and physics sections, with 20 marks assessed by the school.
CISCE sets the syllabus and each school picks its textbooks within it. Class 10 science is examined as three papers: Physics, Chemistry and Biology.
Uttar Pradesh Madhyamik Shiksha Parishad conducts the High School exam; the tutor works from the prescribed books and upmsp.edu.in. IGCSE science is tiered, Core or Extended.
The national science home tutor page explains how we match in every city.
ICSE is a familiar choice in Lucknow, and its science works differently from CBSE's. CISCE examines Physics, Chemistry and Biology as separate Class 10 papers, and each carries internal assessment of its own. Since schools choose their own textbooks inside the CISCE syllabus, a tutor must plan from the book on your child's desk and practise with CISCE specimen papers, not with an NCERT-based scheme.
Three separate papers also mean three separate risks. A child can be comfortable in biology and still drop marks every term in chemistry, so a sensible tutor keeps a running tally by subject and puts the extra time where the tally is weakest. ICSE answers reward exact definitions and complete numerical working; half an answer that is "nearly right" is where marks usually go. If no ICSE-experienced science tutor can reach your locality at a workable hour, online lessons open up the rest of the city.
The 2026-27 curriculum has 13 chapters in the board paper across five units, plus 20 internal marks for a total of 100. In the sample paper each science sits in its own section with its own case-based question and its own five-mark question, so a tutor can plan revision strand by strand:
| Strand and section | Units | Marks | Habit that protects the marks |
|---|---|---|---|
| Biology, Section A | World of Living (25); Our Environment (5) | 30 | Labelled diagrams and the exact term, every time |
| Chemistry, Section B | Chemical Substances: Nature and Behaviour | 25 | Balanced equations with state symbols, observations named |
| Physics, Section C | Effects of Current (13); Natural Phenomena (12) | 25 | Formula, substitution with units, answer; arrows on every ray |
| School-assessed | Periodic, multiple and portfolio assessment, plus practical work | 20 | A practical file kept up to date through the year |
The internal 20 splits into four parts of 5 marks each. For the chapter-by-chapter reactions, diagrams and formulae, use our CBSE Class 10 science notes, and the Class 10 science tutor page shows how the board year is planned.
Thirty-nine questions in three hours. Twenty are worth a mark each, a mix of multiple-choice and assertion–reason; six carry 2 marks and seven carry 3; three case- or source-based questions carry 4; and three long answers carry 5. About a third of the paper offers internal choice. By competency, half the marks test knowledge and understanding, 30% test application and 20% ask the student to analyse, evaluate or create.
That last share is why reading alone falls short. The 2026-27 sample paper asked about lime water in four set-ups left in sunlight, a mustard flower with its anthers removed and a door lock worked by a solenoid. None appears word for word in NCERT, yet each can be answered from NCERT ideas. A tutor should bring one such unfamiliar situation to every session and let your child reason it out aloud before writing.
The curriculum also lists 14 experiments, and board questions are built on them, so the practical file doubles as revision. Class 10 now has two board exams: a compulsory one from mid-February and an optional one in May for improving up to three subjects, science included, with the better score counting and internal assessment done once. The 2027 dates will come in CBSE's date sheet on cbse.gov.in. Treat February as the real attempt; the board-year planner lays out the months.
CBSE's 2026-27 curriculum for Class 9 follows NCERT's new textbook, Exploration. The yearly exam is still 80 marks with 20 internal, spread over four units: Matter, its nature and behaviour, 27; World of living, 25; Motion, force, work and sound, 23; and Earth as a system, 5. Guides and notes written for the previous book will not line up with the new chapters, so the tutor should plan from Exploration itself. The Class 9 science tutor page has more.
In Classes 6 and 7, NCERT's Curiosity books are built around activities. Tuition at this age is less about notes and more about talk: what did you see, what word describes it, can you draw it with labels? By Class 8 the three strands start to separate and simple numericals appear, so units should become automatic. One tutor for all of science is normally right until Class 10, with the benefit that the same person notices when a physics sum fails on arithmetic rather than on the idea. Two sessions a week suit most middle-school children; see the Class 7 and Class 8 science tutor pages.
For a younger child the lesson usually sits between school and dinner, so the tutor's route matters as much as the tutor. Six neighbourhoods from four of our five Lucknow zones show the range; compare tutors near you on the Lucknow page.
| Neighbourhood | Homes | How tutors arrive | Worth agreeing first |
|---|---|---|---|
| Indira Nagar | A housing board colony grown from four blocks to 25; mostly houses and builder floors | Four Red Line stations inside the colony, Munshi Pulia at the northern end | No society gate; allow for crowded market roads near Bhootnath and Lekhraj in the evening |
| Vikas Nagar | Independent houses in numbered sectors between Kalyanpur and Aliganj | By road; the nearest stations are outside the locality | A tutor from Aliganj or Jankipuram avoids the Ring Road at the evening rush |
| Lalbagh | Flats in older buildings and above shops, next to Hazratganj | Sachivalaya underground station is in Lalbagh itself | Share the floor and a landmark, as some buildings have no lift or guard; afternoons are calmer |
| Ashiyana | Mostly independent houses in the LDA Kanpur Road scheme sectors | Krishna Nagar or Singar Nagar station, then an auto | Parking outside is easy; watch the roads towards Kanpur Road in the evening |
| Krishna Nagar | Houses first, then villas and a few apartments | Its own Red Line station, open since September 2017 | Rarely a gate to clear; leave a little margin on busy connecting roads |
| Telibagh | A quiet neighbourhood of houses on Raebareli Road | By two-wheeler, car or auto; Transport Nagar is the nearest station | Start a little later to miss school and office traffic on Raebareli Road |
Ask the tutor to teach whatever chapter the class is on, then watch for these:

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. For science in Classes 6 to 10, each tutor names their own rate; Class 10 board preparation generally sits above middle-school support, and the route to your neighbourhood and the number of weekly lessons also count. You see every fee before the demo.
Tell us the class, the board, which of the three sciences worries you most, your neighbourhood with its sector or block, and the afternoons that suit. You receive two or three matched science tutors with their fees and choose one for a free demo class. If nobody suitable can come at that hour, we suggest online or mixed lessons. NXTutors operates from Sector 66, Gurugram, and teaches online anywhere in India.

Yes. ICSE Class 10 science is three separate papers, Physics, Chemistry and Biology, each with its own internal assessment, so we look for tutors who teach from your school's chosen textbooks and CISCE specimen papers. If none can reach your neighbourhood at a workable hour, online lessons widen the choice.
In the 2026-27 sample paper, biology forms Section A with 30 marks, chemistry Section B with 25 and physics Section C with 25. Each section has its own case-based question and its own five-mark question. The school adds 20 internal marks, making 100 in all for the subject.
No. Sources of Energy and Management of Natural Resources are not part of the current Class 10 course. Periodic classification, evolution, and the motor, induction and generator topics are assessed only by the school. Check the curriculum on cbseacademic.nic.in before cutting anything, because older guides still include them.
Half the paper tests knowledge and understanding, but 30% tests application and 20% analysis and evaluation. Sample-paper questions describe set-ups that are not in the textbook word for word. A tutor should practise one unfamiliar situation each session, reasoning from NCERT ideas before writing the answer.
Yes. We look for tutors who teach from the textbooks prescribed for the High School examination and follow Uttar Pradesh Madhyamik Shiksha Parishad's notices at upmsp.edu.in. We do not quote state exam patterns here, so the tutor should confirm the current scheme there at the start of the year.
Usually, with some planning. Telibagh has no metro station, so tutors come by two-wheeler, car or auto along Raebareli Road, the nearest station being Transport Nagar. Houses open onto the lane, so there is no gate to clear, but a slightly later start avoids school and office traffic.
Two a week suits most children in these years, with the tutor turning Curiosity activities into labelled sketches and precise sentences. Add a third session in Class 9 or 10 if tests keep showing the same gap, and keep one tutor for all three sciences unless one strand stays weak.
