Kelly tutored my daughter for A-level Chemistry and she was fantastic! She was very familiar with the syllabus and was very thorough, arriving for every lesson prepared with the relevant revision materials. Kelly explained complex concepts in a fashion that was very easy for my daughter to understand and I would highly recommend her!

Kelly is an excellent tutor and has bonded well with my daughter during her A-Level Chemistry tutorials. She is very knowledgeable and importantly can impart her skills with ease. My daughter is looking forward to gaining the exam answering techniques that we know she will gain from Kelly. We are very happy to have her as our Chemistry tutor.

Kelly is an outstanding educator. My daughter’s love of chemistry has returned, giving her a new found confidence and understanding of all A level chemistry topics. She comes highly organised and resourced offering an enriched learning experience that goes far beyond the syllabus. As well as teaching, Kelly has provided a wealth of knowledge and guidance for Georgia throughout her final year. Most importantly, Kelly is kind and patient and can teach chemistry concepts in a variety of ways so it can be assimilated by any student. I would like to thank Kelly for all the help she has given to my daughter over the last year; she is certainly ready for any chemistry assessment thrown at her!

Kelly tutored my daughter for her chemistry A level exam this year (2019) to help her get the A grade she needed for her university offer and she was fantastic . She retaught topics that my daughter had covered in college but was still unsure about in a way that enabled her to understand them, went through past paper questions that my daughter did not understand and taught her exam technique - how to present certain types of answers so her working was clear to gain maximum marks. She also provided her with revision booklets for each of the topics in the text book which was very helpful. Kelly was always friendly, enthusiastic and punctual and my daughter very much enjoyed working with her.
The hard work paid off and my daughter was thrilled to achieve a grade A in her chemistry A level.

I would highly recommend Kelly as a tutor.

Our son was struggling with his A level chemistry, as his school went through 4 teachers in one year. Luckily enough we found Kelly who was an absolute god send. Kelly brought her own teaching materials and filled in his missing gaps of knowledge, in a very constructive and positive way. To hear him laughing during the tuition, and his subsequent exam result, reinforces Kelly’s teaching methods . Kelly is an excellent tutor, and we would thoroughly recommend her to anyone looking for great results.
