It is not uncommon for students everywhere to become very confused by the subject of chemistry, especially when the fundamental principles of the subject haven’t been well understood. Without a thorough understanding of these basic principles, many students find they often haven’t much of a clue as to what is going on in lessons at school. If this sounds like you, the best way to make progress is through hiring a private tutor. A private chemistry tutor will work with you to discover exactly where the gaps are in your understanding of the fundamentals of the subject and then systematically begin to eradicate these weaknesses which are holding you back.
Once you have mastered the basic principles, it then becomes possible to make real progress. You will begin to understand what the teacher was talking about all along and lessons will become much more interesting and fulfilling.
Perhaps you are already reasonably good at chemistry but need to achieve a top grade at A-level or GCSE in order to proceed to university or A-levels. In this case, you will be looking for a tutor who has the skills to teach you everything you need to know to tackle even the most challenging topics.
The tutor must have the experience to know the key areas on which you should focus your attention as well as a thorough knowledge of the subject that ideally goes well-beyond the level being covered.
Even if you are a high-flyer, there may be a few areas of the syllabus that you don’t fully understand and perhaps the teacher at school hasn’t the time to go though these at the level of detail you would like preferring to just cover the minimum for the examination. If you really want a deeper understanding that will allow you to tackle even the most challenging exam questions, as your tutor, I would be happy to oblige.
Here is a brief summary of my experience and qualifications:
Victor is a wonderful tutor! He explains concepts with such enthusiasm and clarity that I left each lesson not only more confident but with a real interest in the subject. I believe that Victor’s guidance in Chemistry and Maths were invaluable in helping me to obtain A*s in all of my A-levels and securing a place at Oxford to study medicine.
