Alison O
Alison is a friendly tutor who gives great explanations and ensures you understand the concept thoroughly, instead of just teaching for the exam. I really like how she teaches so that you get to the answer through logical thinking, so you do not have to just rely on memorisation, which is difficult especially with so much content in A level chemistry. She is so calm, that you are not afraid to make mistakes and are comfortable with asking questions, which is something I struggle with at school. Thank you Alison for all your help :))
