Michael R
Experienced and effective Chemistry Tutor
I am an experienced tutor and have been working in Somerset for the last fifteen years. In the past I have tutored students who cannot access full-time education for different reasons (health, mobility, faith and behavioural, for example) and always try to tailor my tuition to the individual's needs.I have worked as an examiner for both A level (chemistry), GCSE (sciences) and SATS (maths) so this means I am able not only to tutor the subject but also improve examination technique. Mathematics and all three sciences can be covered at GCSE in any combination and I have gained a sound working knowledge...

Lucy H
Expert and friendly Chemistry tutor
Hello!! My name is Lucy and I love teaching science as I am a real life scientist! I have been published in Science journals and my work is used across the globe. I always start my lessons with asking how you are and how your week has been. I then recap the topics we covered in previous lessons with a short pop-quiz (low stakes, no pressure at all!) We then mark our quiz and then begin our new content that day. I show you how to do it, we do it together and then you have a go all by yourself! I love relating my lessons to real life current events to engage and have fun with my students. I plan...

Lauren B
Friendly and supportive Chemistry Tutor
Hi, I’m Lauren and I’ve been tutoring for around 3 years at GCSE level. Whilst studying at University to be a Marine Biologist, I tutored for a charity where I would have a class of 10 students who needed help with their science GCSE. I also tutored for A-Level Biology and Chemistry. I have helped students gain more confidence and skills in answering exam questions. I have also helped students who want to move onto the higher tier paper but need a little help understanding the higher tier content.The structure of my sessions involve working through some tricky concepts with discussion and brainstorming! We ...

Alice A
Chemistry Tutor - Making learning memorable
* Book your child in for SUMMER BOOSTER sessions TODAY*- I have had a HUGE increase this year in last minute requests for support, even for the day before the exam...- Many of these young people have been worrying about their GCSEs and A Levels behind closed doors and parents have realised too late that they need support.- If your child is in secondary school or 6th form now and you have any doubt about their independent study skills please consider summer sessions.- I hear all too often that the young people I am working with do not have the skills in order to attempt independent study. These...

Chris is tutoring my son in A Level
Chemistry. He is excellent at explaining the topics and all sessions are very well planned. Chris personalises lessons to cover for what my son has asked for. We highly recommend him.

rohan P
Rohan is very clear with explanations and makes the content very understandable.
He also gives helpful tips for how to answer exam questions.
And also prepares content and work before the lesson and provides insightful feedback after the lesson, so I know what I should go through afterwards and what I should work on.
His rates are also much more competitive compared to other tutors so would recommend!

Lawrence C
After trying several tutors for A-Level Chemistry, I can say for certain Lawrence has been my favourite as he is patient and helps you understand the topic in full to further consolidate knowledge. I’ve had him for months and would definitely say he’s helped me gain more confidence in chemistry. Would recommend him to anyone trying to improve their Chemistry grades.

Feba A
Feba is a fantastic tutor,greatly improving my understanding of both biology and chemistry. She takes time on topics I struggle with and tailors her lesson around them, often creating presentations to help me understand the material better. She explains concepts in biology and chemistry thoroughly and always encourages curiosity. I have never felt discouraged to ask questions.
Furthermore, she has gone out of her way to support me beyond lessons including helping with my university reference which is incredibly helpful as a private A-level candidate. She’s flexible and understanding with lesson times accommodating to your schedule. Overall, her support is consistent, genuine and above what I expected from a tutor. Could not recommend more!

Chidimma I
Chidimma has vast knowledge of Chemistry, friendly, approachable, pays attention to the person she is tutoring and can adapt to changes. She has been tutoring my daughter which has helped her confidence in A level Chemistry. Chidimma is a brilliant chemistry tutor as she was able to pick up my daughter’s weaknesses in a topic which they tackled together to help my daughter have a crystal understanding of the topic which increased her confidence in the topic.
Chidimma is good at her job and a Chemistry teacher you can bet on. I highly recommend her.

Dr Brian M
Dr Brian has helped my daughter so much with Chemistry A Level. In just a few months she has become a lot more confident in some of the hardest topics including Organics and Energy Changes. Dr Brian explained all the tricky concepts to my daughter and wasted no time doing lots of exam practice questions, slowly building up the difficulty. He is an excellent tutor and I can’t recommend him enough!

Can an online Chemistry tutor help my child specifically with preparing for competitive degrees like Medicine or Veterinary Science?
Absolutely. Our expert Chemistry tutors understand the demanding requirements for these courses. They can help your child not only master the curriculum but also develop the deeper understanding and problem-solving skills needed to stand out in university applications for competitive degrees at places like Exeter or Plymouth.
My child attends St Ives School. Will a tutor be familiar with the local curriculum or exam board styles?
Many of our tutors have extensive experience with various UK exam boards (AQA, Edexcel, OCR) commonly used in schools like St Ives School. When you search, you can discuss your child's specific curriculum and school needs with potential tutors to ensure they're a perfect fit for their learning journey.
Is Chemistry tutoring just for school exams, or can my child explore other scientific interests?
While our tutors are excellent at exam preparation for GCSE and A-Level Chemistry, they can also support your child in exploring broader scientific interests. Whether it's understanding environmental chemistry, delving into forensic science, or even preparing for science competitions, our tutors can tailor sessions to foster a deeper passion for the subject beyond the curriculum.
What if my child doesn't get along with their first Chemistry tutor?
We offer a First Lesson Guarantee. If you don't get on with your tutor, email our support team at support@tutorful.co.uk and we will cover your first session with a new tutor. We want to make sure your child finds the perfect match for their learning style and personality.
How do I choose the right online Chemistry tutor for my child?
You can browse tutor profiles, read reviews from other parents, and even watch introductory videos. We recommend looking for a tutor whose experience aligns with your child's specific needs – perhaps they excel in GCSE revision, A-Level preparation, or have a background in the scientific field your child is interested in.

Are the online Chemistry lessons interactive and engaging for my child?
Absolutely. Our online classroom is designed to be highly interactive, featuring virtual whiteboards, document sharing, and even screen sharing. Tutors use these tools to make lessons engaging and dynamic, just like an in-person session, ensuring your child stays focused and enjoys learning.
What if my child needs help with a specific Chemistry topic, like organic chemistry or electrochemistry?
Our tutors are experts across the entire Chemistry curriculum. Whether your child needs to grasp complex concepts in organic chemistry, understand redox reactions, or master calculations, you can communicate these specific needs to your chosen tutor, and they will tailor their lessons accordingly.
