Chris Perkins is a highly qualified Teacher and Tutor.
Chris has taught A-Level chemistry since 1995.
There is a specially designed classroom for chemistry tuition where he uses a projector, Dropbox resources and the internet to clearly explain important ideas.
Scanned, handwritten answers to past exam papers are made available using Dropbox and hence materials are easily shared. Furthermore, Chris knows where students are likely to struggle and can often fix problems quickly.
My daughter was struggling with her A Level chemistry and needed some help. She was trailing behind with an E grade, but we were really lucky to find Chris. When I used to collect Molly everything was so calm, relaxed and happy. Molly said everything clicked when she had that extra bit of tuition and that she understood the mechanics of chemistry instead of learning it parrot fashion. She has just got a A grade in her AS, so proof that Chris is a great tutor and I would highly recommend.

Very helpful. Chris goes through each topic until you understand. He has very useful resources that will definitely help you to get good grades.
Anwar... Year 13 student
Absolutely excellent chemistry tutor! Would definitely recommend for AS and A2 chemistry tutoring! He helped me to understand concepts and improve exam technique. Thanks to Chris I managed to get an A in A2 chemistry!

I had Chris as a chemistry tutor for a couple of months prior to my final A-level exams. In that short space of time my understanding of chemistry grew exponentially. His 1-1 teaching style, clear explanations and patience allowed me to grasp the most complex theories and apply them in my exams. I decided what I wanted to learn that day and would come away feeling confident on the subject and it greatly helped that sessions were flexible. I can’t thank him enough for the help he provided with my studies. I have recommended him to all my friends and cannot rate him highly enough.

I would certainly recommend Chris to other A-Level students. I find it helpful being able to go over content and fill any gaps in my knowledge. Chris is extremely patient and is always happy to explain things a second time around. Visualising concepts on the whiteboard is very useful. Chris also provides all his students with access to a Dropbox folder which contains PowerPoints and condensed revision notes for each topic. There is also a wealth of past papers (including annotated versions with ‘model answers’). This is an absolutely exceptional resource for improving exam technique and I would wholeheartedly recommend!
Alfie Carlisle... Year 13 student
Excellent tutor, very thorough with a great tempo to the lessons! Helping massively with chemistry A-level. I’ve been able to see huge progress from the first lesson and he continually helps me to improve my understanding of the various A-level topics! Very welcoming which makes you feel comfortable in his sessions!

Chris clearly has a lot of experience both in the subject area and in tutoring. He has a range of interactive training aids, which have really helped my daughter understand Chemistry. She has found Chris to be extremely helpful.
Sally… parent of Year 12 student
Chris prepared my son for re-sits of A2 chemistry. His lessons were well organised and he provided plenty of resources. He was very familiar with all the different exam boards, he was professional and explained everything clearly…
Martin… parent of Year 13 student
Fantastic teaching that’s specific to which ever exam board you have to study with. Chris is great at explaining new topics and I was delighted with my A level result with his help.
Rhiannon Davies... Year 13 student
Chris has tutored my son for five months. In this time my son has had his predicted A Level Chemistry grade increased from D to an A. Chris is highly recommended.
James… parent of Year 13 student
Chris was very good and clear as to how he could help my son improve his grade at AS level
Julia… parent
I achieved an A in my a level chemistry and Chris’ sessions were a huge help towards this.
Izzy Heir... Year 13 student
Chris is an excellent tutor … he understands how the exam works and what the examiners are looking for and is full of useful hints and tips.
Alice… Year 13 student
My son has been working with Chris on a weekly basis now for two months. He finds Chris to be really good, very thorough and in his own words, he doesn’t know how it could be better!
Kay… parent of Year 12 student
Friendly and approachable. Amazing resources and has been very helpful. Can recommend.
Megan… Year 12 Chemistry student
Chris has been a great tutor for our daughter. He is very knowledgeable and has really helped with her class work and exam technique. He is thorough and efficient and always on time.
Andrea… parent of Year 13 student
Both Oliver and Josh have found your lessons extremely helpful and enjoyable. Oliver said that he chemistry exams were much easier as a result of your help than they would otherwise have been. Thank you so very much.
Susie… parent of Chemistry GCSE students
Chris tutored one of my daughters for Chemistry GCSE and the other for Chemistry A-level. Both of them found his style of teaching enjoyable and easy to understand. They both increased in confidence and enjoyment of the subject and felt very well prepared for their exams. I am convinced that both achieved higher grades in Chemistry than they otherwise would have done.
Ellie Turner... parent of GCSE and Year 13 student
My daughter was panicking about her Chemistry A level. Chris helped her to calm down, think and study constructively and she was able to get the grade she needed to get to her first choice university. I’d recommend Chris without reservation.
