A Level Chemistry Revision Courses

Michail D.

Michail, also known as Mike, holds a first class honours degree and a PhD in Chemistry. He spent many years working in a wide range of technical and managerial roles, before eventually finding his calling as a teacher. He’s now racked up 12 years of experience in education, teaching most UK syllabuses, including Edexcel, AQA, and OCR (A) – his personal favourites.

Mike’s particularly fond of teaching mechanisms in organic chemistry, believing the key to understanding it is viewing it in terms of electrostatics. His teaching approach focuses on developing a thorough knowledge of the course content and confidence-building ­– believing both are equally essential for successfully answering exam questions. When he’s not teaching, Mike spends his time cycling, volunteering, and watching seabirds.

Jenny W.

Jenny has taught chemistry for an impressive 15 years, working as a classroom teacher and a private tutor. She’s an expert when it comes to the OCR (A) syllabus, having taught it for seven years. She currently teaches at a private school in Buckinghamshire, using her evenings to tutor private students.

Jenny is an enthusiastic teacher who loves nothing more than seeing the confidence of her students grow. She particularly enjoys the challenges of mole calculation and relishes teaching the topic on Benzene, where she gets to draw mechanisms – something that always makes her happy. In her spare time, Jenny enjoys walking her enormous dog with her daughter, conversing with her chickens, and learning calligraphy.

Rob M.

Rob attended the University of Southampton and achieved a first class master’s in Chemistry. Since graduating, he’s been teaching for over six years and is the head of chemistry at a large secondary school in Hampshire. He’s been teaching the subject at A Level for his entire career, giving him a thorough knowledge of OCR exam board specifications.

Rob is passionate about his subject, in particular, organic chemistry and how it provides a toolkit to synthesise medicines and materials that shape our lives today and in the future. His teaching style focuses on the importance of precision of knowledge and helping his students develop context-based understanding and application skills using past paper questions. When he’s not teaching or tutoring GCSE, IGCSE and A Level Chemistry students, Robert enjoys taking to the stage in plays and musicals across the south coast.
