Tom S
Tom is an excellent tutor who has helped my son appear for his AS level exam in “Design and Technology”. Tom was methodical and thorough in approach and had very specific inputs, strategy and guidance for the specific curriculum/ paper. He was able to bring in confidence and excitement in the subject in a matter of a couple of sessions. I would strongly recommend Tom as a tutor.

Daniel was a huge help for me and my Product Design portfolio. During the session he made me explain each part of my project and then sent detailed feedback and notes after the lesson. I particularly liked how he showed what exemplar portfolios looked like so that I understood the requirements needed. Overall very friendly and helpful, definitely recommend!!

Frequently
asked questions
See all FAQs
Is A-Level Design and Technology valued by universities, and what careers can it lead to?
Absolutely! While it has a practical element, A-Level Design and Technology is highly regarded by top universities. It develops critical thinking, problem-solving, and project management skills – attributes sought after for a wide range of competitive degrees. It can lead to exciting careers in engineering, product design, architecture, digital design, and even business, showcasing your ability to innovate and solve real-world problems. Universities see it as a subject that prepares students for complex challenges, much like an engineering A-Level.
How can an A-Level Design and Technology tutor help with the demanding NEA project?
The NEA is a huge part of the A-Level, and an A-Level Design and Technology tutor can provide invaluable support. They can help students break down the project into manageable stages, develop strong research and time-management skills, and offer guidance on complex technical aspects or design choices, like prototyping methods or material selection. They also help ensure your child is balancing the NEA with revision for the written exams, preventing burnout and keeping all their grades strong. This kind of structured, independent guidance is key.
My child isn't taking A-Level Maths or Physics. Will a tutor help with the technical demands of D&T?
Yes, definitely. A-Level Design and Technology involves a significant amount of maths and physics, from understanding forces in structures to calculating efficiency. If your child isn't studying these subjects at A-Level, a dedicated A-Level Design and Technology tutor can bridge any knowledge gaps. They'll explain these principles clearly within the D&T context, ensuring your child understands the calculations and theories needed for both the NEA and the written exams, without feeling at a disadvantage.
How effective is tutoring for A-Level Design and Technology?
Tutoring for A-Level Design and Technology is very effective because it's so personalised. Your tutor focuses exactly on the areas students find challenging, whether that's understanding complex theory, refining practical skills, or mastering exam techniques. This targeted approach builds confidence and leads to significant improvement. In fact, 90% of students who use a tutor improve by at least one grade, helping them achieve their academic goals.
When is the best time to start tutoring for A-Level Design and Technology?
Many students find starting in Year 12 helpful to solidify the foundational skills and theory, which are crucial for the big leap from GCSE and for preparing for the NEA. However, a tutor can be beneficial at any stage. In Year 13, a tutor can provide crucial support in managing the NEA workload, advising on prototyping, helping with exam revision, and ensuring your child balances all their A-Levels effectively. Starting early can build confidence, but focused support closer to exams can make a significant difference too.
How do I find the right A-Level Design and Technology tutor?
Finding the right fit is important. You can browse tutor profiles on Tutorful, read reviews from other students, and see their qualifications and experience. We carefully vet all our tutors – only accepting 1 in 8 applicants – ensuring they are subject experts who are passionate about helping students succeed. You can also message tutors directly before booking to discuss your child's specific needs and ensure they're a good match.
