Get your dream grades with expert A-level Physics Tuition

Ideally September or October. At the start of the new school year.
This way, you can get as high a grade as you want. Only your effort will limit you. Not your current ability. You should have 1 lesson a week. Maybe 2 a week if you want to FULLY cover 2 or 3 subjects.

If you have left it later than this:

• 3-4 months before an exam
• The holidays, summer, half terms.

I can advise you on how many lessons a week and hours of homework you will need to reach your goals.

Finally, occasional lessons anytime during your course.
For capable students before interviews, entrance exams, or competitions. Or when hitting a tricky topic.

The earlier you realise you need help the better.

Students usually see a good improvement, with most seeing a 1 to 3 grade increase. E.g. from a C to an A would be a 2-grade increase.

I have seen greater improvements than this several times. Most of my students end up getting 7-9s.

Really it’s the university, where you are doing the degree and not the subject itself that defines the offers you get from universities. However there are some degrees that are very competitive, regardless of which university you apply to.

Medicine is number one. The prospect of being able to save and improve lives, have as varied and interesting career as you are prepared to work for, and be paid extremely well is obviously going to be hotly contested. It is not only hard in terms of the A-Level results you will need, you need to be dedicated and study hard for *many* years to become a fully qualify doctor.

Dentistry is another tough and popular degree, as is Law.

On the STEM side, most degrees require decent results at all universities. Maths, Physics, Chemistry, Engineering, Computer Science and related subjects will all need you to put a good deal of effort into your A-Levels.

A good grade in A-level Physics is essential for degrees in Physics, Astronomy, Astrophysics and Engineering. For higher tier universities this will be an A*, maybe an A.

Often degrees in Chemistry, Maths, Computer Science and Medicine will have an offer that require a minimum grade in A-level Physics.

Weekly lessons throughout the last or both years of the A-Level are my usual advice. I don’t offer fortnightly lessons at a fixed day/time. But you can book ad-hoc lessons any time with my online booking system.

If you a lot of help with 1 subject, but only a bit for 1/2 others, 1 lesson a week is OK. To cover two or more subjects fully, 2 lessons a week are needed.

More than 1 lesson a week is advisable if you really need a decent boost, or if you start tuition later in the year, especially near exams.

Sometimes pupils are so busy during term time, they can only fit lessons in during holidays. Here we do a concentrated block of lessons, usually 2 or more a week. This requires genuine work and dedication between lessons.
