Holly has been a great tutor, teaching me A level biology in a way that is very helpful. She goes through the content with me and makes sure I understand before moving on. She also goes through exam questions with me, making sure that I understand all the questions and their answers and identifying where I need more improvement.

Are these tutors familiar with the A-Level Biology curriculum taught in Durham schools?
Yes, our online tutors are experienced with the UK A-Level Biology curriculum, regardless of the exam board (AQA, Edexcel, OCR, etc.). They understand the expectations for students across the UK, including those from schools in Durham, and can tailor lessons to match what your child is learning in class, whether it's at Durham Johnston or another excellent local school.
Is Tutorful only for academic subjects, or can my child learn other skills too?
While we excel in academic subjects like Biology, Tutorful offers a wide range of learning opportunities!

We believe learning should be lifelong and cater to all interests.
