Subjects
GCSE and A-Level Biology and Chemistry. All major exam boards covered.
Every student learns differently. I adapt my teaching to match — whether that means more visual explanations, breaking things into smaller steps, using real-world examples, or simply going at a pace that works for you.
Not sure what you need? Get in touch and we'll work it out together.
I also work with younger students who want to build strong foundations before GCSE. Get in touch to discuss.
Biology
GCSE • A-LevelFrom cells to ecosystems, genetics to human physiology. Biology is about understanding life itself — and it makes far more sense when you see the connections rather than memorising isolated facts.
GCSE Biology
Whether Combined Science or separate Biology, I cover all major exam boards:
- Cell biology and organisation
- Infection and immunity
- Bioenergetics (photosynthesis & respiration)
- Homeostasis and response
- Inheritance, variation, and evolution
- Ecology
- Required practicals and exam technique
Exam boards: AQA, Edexcel, OCR, WJEC
A-Level Biology
A significant step up from GCSE. I help students navigate the depth and detail required:
- Biological molecules and enzymes
- Cell structure, division, and transport
- Exchange and mass transport
- Genetics, DNA technology, and gene expression
- Energy transfers and ecosystems
- Homeostasis and response mechanisms
- Extended writing and data analysis skills
Exam boards: AQA, Edexcel, OCR A & B
Chemistry
GCSE • A-LevelChemistry has a reputation for being difficult — but it doesn't have to be. Once you understand the logic of atoms and reactions, it clicks into place. I focus on building that understanding from the ground up.
GCSE Chemistry
Building confidence with both theory and calculations:
- Atomic structure and the periodic table
- Bonding, structure, and properties of matter
- Quantitative chemistry (moles, concentrations)
- Chemical changes and electrolysis
- Energy changes
- Rates of reaction and equilibrium
- Organic chemistry
- Chemical analysis and required practicals
Exam boards: AQA, Edexcel, OCR, WJEC
A-Level Chemistry
Challenging but rewarding. I help demystify the trickier concepts:
- Physical chemistry: atomic structure, bonding, energetics, kinetics, equilibria
- Inorganic chemistry: periodicity, Group 2 & 7, transition metals
- Organic chemistry: mechanisms, synthesis, analysis
- Mathematical skills and calculations
- Practical endorsement preparation
Exam boards: AQA, Edexcel, OCR A & B
Exam Boards
I'm familiar with all major UK exam boards and tailor sessions to your specific syllabus.
Not sure which board you're on? Check your school's website or ask your teacher — or just let me know your school and I'll find out.
