Shafik T

I’ve been studying A-Level Chemistry with Shafik and I can honestly say he’s made a huge difference in my understanding and confidence. His explanations are clear and concise, breaking down even the most complex and hard to grasp topics into easy-to-understand steps. What I appreciate the most is Shafik’s patience and ability to tailor the lessons to my needs. Whether it’s past paper practice, tricky concepts, or exam techniques, he always makes sure I fully grasp the material before moving on. He also provides great resources which he spends a long time creating that include things such as helpful tips and key words that will lead you to exam success. Thanks to Shafik’s support, I feel much more prepared for my exams. I highly recommend him to anyone looking for an excellent A-Level Chemistry tutor - especially if you are aiming for that A/A*!
