Information about Chris
I specialise in preparing students for A-level chemistry exams. Until January 2011, I was a Science Teacher at Plymstock School in Plymouth where I had been the Head of Chemistry for 10 years. Previously I had worked at Kelly College Independent School as a Chemistry Teacher and the Head of Lower School Science. Since January 2011, I have been self employed as both a Professional Tutor and also a Professional Drummer! I love both aspects of my self-employment and look forward to helping many more students achieve exam success.

Experience: Chris has been teaching and tutoring A-level chemistry since 1994 and as an ex-Head of Chemistry who has worked in both state schools and private schools, he has helped countless students achieve the high grades they often need for university entrance. Many of my ex-students have gone on to vet school, medical school and Ox-bridge.
Chris has an up to date enhanced DBS certificate and also public liability insurance.
You can also find him on the internet listed with various other agencies.
Tutoring Approach:
CHEMISTRY
I use revision notes and PowerPoints to aid understanding but try to focus the learning around past paper questions and answers as much as possible.
I have handwritten answers to AQA, OCR-A and OCR-Salters past papers which are scanned in to the computer for projection onto a smart board.
I offer individual tuition on a 1:1 basis and also small tutorials of between 2 to 3 students, who are in the same year group and following the same specification
often friends.
Payment is preferably monthly in advance, by bank transfer
DBS Check: Yes

Amazing Tutor for my son at A level Chemistry. Despite dyslexia challenges and a pandemic to boot, our man gained an A grade. A no nonsense approach that makes the student work whilst providing the necessary support. Perfect! Thank you Chris
