FAQ's

🧬 Which stages make up the scientific method?

Every scientific investigation follows an ordered process from start to finish.

  • Observation: Pay attention to patterns or unusual events.
  • Question: Turn your observation into a specific, testable question.
  • Research: Find out what others already know about the topic.
  • Form a hypothesis: Make a prediction using an "if…then" statement.
  • Experiment: Carry out your experiment carefully and record results.
  • Analyse data: Use graphs or tables to interpret what happened.
  • Conclusion: Explain what your results mean.

Scientists revisit steps when results surprise them or need checking.

💰 How much does a private science lesson cost in Edinburgh?

A private science tutor in Edinburgh usually charges around £20/h.

This rate can vary depending on several factors:

  • Academic stage (KS3, GCSE, A-Level or university)
  • Whether the tutor holds a degree, PGCE or PhD
  • Lesson length and frequency
  • Format of tuition (face-to-face, video call or hybrid)

Some tutors provide package deals that lower the hourly cost over time.

You can try an introductory lesson to see if the tutor suits your learning needs.

⚡ What happens to particles when matter changes state?

The state of a substance depends on how its particles are arranged and how they move.

  • Solids: Atoms sit close together in a regular structure with little movement.
  • Liquids: Atoms have more energy and move around within the substance.
  • Gases: Particles spread far apart and move quickly in all directions.

Heating adds energy, making particles move faster and often changing state.

Remember: more heat means more movement; less heat means slower particles.
