Best iGCSE Science tutors in Hong Kong (2026 guide)

iGCSE Sciences are one of the busiest tutoring markets in Hong Kong. Between the international schools clustered across Hong Kong Island and Kowloon, most Year 10 and Year 11 families end up looking for extra support in at least one of Biology, Chemistry or Physics before the summer exam series.

Two routes matter here. Combined Science candidates cover all three subjects but with less depth per topic, so families often want a single tutor who can bounce between Biology and Chemistry in the same session, then Physics the next week. Triple Science candidates sit each subject separately and usually need proper specialist depth, which pushes families toward one tutor per subject or a centre with a bench they can rotate through.

This guide covers the centres that appear across all three subject research passes, the rates that are published, and how to think about picking one tutor across all three sciences versus a specialist per subject.

Rates and details in this guide were checked at the time of writing (July 2026). Tutor pricing shifts, so it's worth confirming current rates directly with any centre or platform you shortlist.

Before paying HK$1,000+ an hour for a Science tutor, it's worth mapping your child's gaps first. A tutor with a clear brief on which topics need work is far more useful than one figuring it out session by session. This matters even more with three sciences to manage.

Cognito's free online platform is one way to do that. Working through Biology, Chemistry and Physics topics and quizzes flags which areas need work, so students walk into their first tutor session knowing where to focus. Families who do this often book fewer tutor hours or cover some topics on their own.

One tutor across all three, or a specialist per subject?

For Combined Science candidates, a single tutor who can move between Biology, Chemistry and Physics is usually the more efficient choice, because the syllabus depth per subject is lighter and a good all-rounder can flex between them. Bridge Elite, ITS and CANA Elite all have tutors who cover multiple sciences. For Triple Science, specialists tend to be worth the extra co-ordination cost, especially at the harder end of Chemistry organic reactions or Physics electromagnetism.

Group class options. If budget is a factor, HKETS is the only centre with a published group rate (HK$550perhour)alongsideitsone-to-onerate.BartyEDrunssmallgroupsatHK$880 per hour. TigerCampus is one-to-one only but sits at HK$235-500 online, which is comparable. GETUTOR doesn't publish a discrete group rate.

Budget planning for multi-subject tuition. Running two hours a week of one-to-one across all three sciences at HK$820(HKETS)isroughlyHK$5,000 a month; at BartyED's standard HK$\mathrm{1,480}ratethatbecomesclosertoHK$9,000. Combining self-paced work on a platform like Cognito with targeted tutor hours on the actual weak topics tends to bring that number down without losing exam prep quality.
