What we offer
Live, one-to-one tuition for SQA Higher and Advanced Higher — matched to your child’s course, in Maths, English and the sciences — with the exam and university preparation that decides the grade.
The three areas we work on:
S5 · Graded A–D
The university entry qualification
Higher is the main qualification for Scottish university entry. We focus on secure understanding, prelim and exam preparation, and the exam technique that turns knowledge into the grade your child needs.

Depth & independent study
The most advanced school qualification in Scotland, with more independent study and often a project or dissertation. We support the depth, structure and technique universities value — keeping the work the student’s own.

Where university offers are won and lost
University offers usually rest on Higher grades, and the gap between understanding a topic and scoring it in the exam is where most marks are lost. We work through past papers and SQA marking instructions, prepare for prelims, sharpen exam technique, and target the exact topics putting an offer at risk — so your child walks into the exam ready to secure the grade.

Book free Higher assessmentFor your child
Is your child finding Higher or Advanced Higher difficult, stressful or hard to keep on top of? The step up from National 5 is sharp, the pace is fast, and the grades carry real weight — Highers decide university offers, and Advanced Higher demands a level of independence that catches some pupils out.
We tutor Higher and Advanced Higher online in Maths, English and the sciences, matched to the SQA course. Whatever the level, our tutors assess first, find the gap, then teach your child step by step.
Higher · S5 · Graded A–D
Higher is the qualification universities make offers on, so this is where most families want focused help. The jump from National 5 is steep — more content, more depth, less time. We secure understanding, work through past papers and SQA marking instructions, prepare for prelims, and sharpen the exam technique that turns knowledge into the grade.
Advanced Higher · S6
Advanced Higher is the most demanding school qualification in Scotland, closer to first-year university in depth and independence. Many subjects include a project or dissertation. We support the deeper understanding, the planning and structure behind the project, and the study skills the step up relies on — while keeping all coursework the student’s own.
Into university · UCAS
University offers usually rest on Higher grades, and a single subject slipping can put an offer at risk. We identify exactly which subjects or skills are the danger, then target them through focused exam and prelim preparation — so your child can meet the grades their offer depends on.
Families come to us for an online Higher or Advanced Higher tutor when they notice one of these:
Two pupils can get the same Higher mark for completely different reasons.
More past papers won’t fix a problem we haven’t named yet.
The assessment is a short, guided check — done live online, or in person at our Batley centre.
By the end, we can tell you exactly what’s capping the grade — whether it’s a gap carried up from National 5, exam technique, a specific subject, or the independence Advanced Higher demands.
Lessons work from your child’s own SQA course, past papers and prelim questions over a shared screen — not a generic worksheet pack. Our DBS-checked tutors follow the plan from the assessment, so each lesson targets the specific gap capping the grade.
Yes. There is no payment to book the assessment and no obligation to take tuition afterwards. We do it live online to find your child's Higher or Advanced Higher gaps and explain the clearest next step before any paid lessons begin.
Lessons are live and one-to-one over video, not recorded content. The tutor and student share a screen to work through SQA course material, past papers, prelim questions and marking instructions together, annotating as they go. All you need is a laptop or tablet and an internet connection.
Yes. Tuition is matched to your child's SQA course at Higher or Advanced Higher and to Curriculum for Excellence, including the relevant exam content, coursework and the project or dissertation, so lessons line up with what your child is doing at school.
We cover both. Higher is usually taken in S5 and is the main qualification for Scottish university entry, while Advanced Higher is taken in S6, is the most advanced school qualification, and involves more independent study and often a project or dissertation. We assess first to confirm the level and where the gaps are.
Yes. University offers usually rest on Higher grades, so the assessment identifies exactly which subjects or skills are at risk of falling below the offer, and lessons then target those gaps through prelim and exam preparation, exam technique and past-paper practice.
Yes. We support students with the planning, structure and technique behind the Advanced Higher project or dissertation, while keeping the work the student's own in line with SQA rules. We guide and develop skills rather than write any part of the coursework.
Online Higher and Advanced Higher tuition is taught one-to-one from £45 per hour — exact rate confirmed after the free assessment.
Reviews
“Living away from the bigger towns, finding the right tutor is not easy. He somehow made it possible.”
“Her Higher Maths went from a worry to the grade her uni offer needed. The exam-technique work made the difference.”
“The Advanced Higher project felt impossible until we worked through the structure together. It finally clicked.”
Mon–Fri 9am–7pm · Sat–Sun 10am–2pm (UK time).
You’ll speak to me — Mr Dabhad — or someone on the team. No pitch, just an honest conversation about whether tuition would help.
