Online tutor Edinburgh — no bus across town

Tutoring in Edinburgh has been the same story for years: an agency intro, £25–£60/hour, a slot once a week, often a bus ride to a tutor in Marchmont or a chair around the kitchen table in Corstorphine.

Skoolskill is different. Online AI tutor Edinburgh — your tutor lives in your phone. It reads your jotter, knows where you struggle, and quizzes you for 15–20 minutes a day, from your own room in Leith, Bruntsfield or Penicuik.

Which Edinburgh schools does it work for?

All of them:

SQA Nat 5, Higher and Advanced Higher

Scotland’s exam system is its own — Skoolskill is built for it:

SQA past papers from 2015 to 2024 are sorted by topic and year for every major Higher and Advanced Higher subject.

Questions teachers and parents actually ask.

Is Skoolskill physically based in Edinburgh?

No — Skoolskill is an online AI tutor, not a centre on George Street or in Bruntsfield. That means: no bus into town, no slot to book, available at 10 PM on a Sunday before your Monday prelim.

Does it cover the SQA curriculum (Nat 5, Higher, Advanced Higher)?

Yes. National 5, Higher and Advanced Higher are all supported across Maths, English, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, History, Geography, Modern Studies, Computing, French, Spanish, German and more. SQA past papers (2015–2024) are searchable by topic and year.

Does it work for Edinburgh state and independent schools?

Yes — every state secondary in the City of Edinburgh, Midlothian, East Lothian and West Lothian, plus the independents: George Watson's, Edinburgh Academy, Stewart's Melville, Mary Erskine, Fettes, Loretto, Merchiston Castle, St George's. The tutor reads your notes, not your school crest.

What about prelims?

Edinburgh schools run prelims in January–February. Skoolskill builds a plan from your prelim date back, with daily practice from November and timed mocks two weeks out.

How does it compare to Edinburgh tutoring agencies?

Edinburgh tutoring (Tutor Doctor, Tutors Edinburgh, Edinburgh Tutorial Service) charges £25–£60/hour, sometimes £80+ for Advanced Higher Maths or specialist sciences. Skoolskill is free to start, £6.99/month for Pro — about £900–£2,880/year saved per subject.

Which areas does it cover?

All of them — Skoolskill is online, so location doesn't matter. Morningside, Bruntsfield, Marchmont, Stockbridge, Leith, Portobello, Corstorphine, Newington, plus the Lothians (Musselburgh, Dalkeith, Livingston, North Berwick) — same access.

Does it help with university prep?

Yes. UCAS personal statements aren't our strength (a human helps more there), but Advanced Higher–to–first year transitions for Edinburgh, St Andrews, Glasgow, Heriot-Watt and Strathclyde are well supported — calculus, linear algebra, intro chemistry.

How do I start?

Create a free account, tell us your year (S1–S6 or first-year university), snap a photo of your jotter or a past paper. Your first session starts in under three minutes.
