Very good experience with Caledonian Tutors, Anna was a great support and guide for our son's Advanced Higher Maths this year, coming out with an A pass! The service including setting up and invoicing is very well managed.

Ashley Candy 16th August 2026

My daughter was crashing Nat 5 chemistry and had sessions every week with Aminah. She was brilliant. Put her at ease with the first meeting and was very thorough and really made her feel confident going into the exam. She got an A and couldn’t have done it without her.

Shona Mathers 13th August 2026

My son failed his English prelim so we decided to get him a tutor. He worked with Skye online on a weekly basis from Jan-April (before his diagnosis of Dyslexia). Delighted that my son got a B in his English Nat 5! Thanks to Skye for all her support. 🙏🏽 P.S. I would have scored 5/5 if F2F was available which was my son's preference.

LMR 11th August 2026

My daughter had excellent tutoring for Advanced Higher Chemistry through Caledonia Tutors. Tutor Jessica was knowledgeable, well-organised, flexible and very friendly and encouraging. We couldn't have asked for anyone better. The results came out last week and my daughter got an A - she is delighted. Thank you Jessica!

Mira P 7th August 2026

Absolutely recommend. Our son did prelims with C grade (English is his second language), we arranged lessons twice a week, with wonderful tutor Michael and three months later got B for the Nat5. Arranging lessons also was very fast, easy process, very welcoming team. Thanks a lot.

Laura Rodgers 6th August 2026

Exceptional support for Higher Spanish! We are so pleased with the tutoring our daughter received from Elsie for her Higher Spanish exam. Elsie is not only incredibly knowledgeable, but she was also brilliant at adapting her teaching to suit my daughter’s specific learning style. She made every session engaging and enjoyable, which really helped build my daughter's confidence. Beyond the academics, Elsie was incredibly caring; she messaged after the exam to see how it went and checked in again on results day. She was always reliable, and nothing was ever too much trouble. We also had a fantastic experience with Caledonian Tutors as an agency. They are reliable, responsive, transparent, and a real pleasure to deal with. We are delighted with the grade our daughter achieved, and we will definitely be using them again. Highly recommended!

Excellent I would recommend. Cameron took my daughter from C in Maths (Prelim) to A in Maths final exams(Highers).
