Chris Perkins

We are so glad that we found Chris to teach our son. Chris is an excellent teacher. He is patient, knowledgeable and knows how to explain the topics very well. My son really enjoys his lessons. He is also very professional, well organised and responsive. We highly recommend Chris to anyone who wants to improve their understanding of Chemistry.

Chris provides brilliant lessons with in-depth explanations and exam past paper questions on all topics. Quizlet flash cards are also great for learning key definitions. I would highly recommend his lessons to all A-Level students aiming for top grades.

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.

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!

Chris has combined modern teaching techniques alongside traditional teaching styles to create an optimum learning environment. Chris has impacted my grades in a very positive way in the form of improving my chemistry grade by a solid two grades. I could not recommend Chris enough.

Highly recommended to GCSE or A Level students. Mr Perkins really covers your specification comprehensively using flashcards and an online resource hub. In our sessions, we revise topics, break down exam questions together and really try to understand concepts.

Chris is an amazing tutor. He has helped my understanding of Chemistry massively. Very friendly environment for learning.

We have been very impressed by Chris. He is incredibly organised, explains things thoroughly, is punctual and makes my sons lessons enjoyable. I would highly recommend him as a Chemistry tutor.

Chris is an excellent tutor, he has really helped me improve my understanding as well as exam technique. I would highly recommend him! I have noticed an increase in confidence with Alevel Chemistry and definitely feel that the extra help has been extremely useful.

Chris is an excellent chemistry tutor! He has helped me immensely with my understanding and knowledge of the subject as an A Level, not only by the extremely useful tutoring sessions in which he answers any questions I have and is able to explain everything to me, but also with the many resources and notes I am given through Dropbox to assist me in furthering my understanding. He was recommended to me and I would recommend his Chemistry tutoring to anyone who has any doubts about Chemistry, he can definitely help you!

I achieved an A in my a level chemistry and Chris’ sessions were a huge help towards this.

Chris has helped massively with understanding in all areas of chemistry, but also revision techniques and the transition from GCSE to A-level as a whole. Very friendly, would recommend 🙂

Since my lessons with Chris, my in class topic tests have improved by two grades. So much so, my predicted grade has gone from a 6 to an 8! Additionally, the resources provided allow me to revise effectively outside of Chris’s tuition.

Chris has been an absolutely brilliant tutor for me throughout my A levels and I could not recommend him highly enough. He explains everything thoroughly and is always able to fix any problems and help me to understand what I couldn’t before.

Chris is a fantastic tutor. My son has a lot more confidence now and has moved up a grade in the short time he has being seeing Chris. He fully understands that students sometimes get blocks in their learning and works through the solutions with them. I wish he did Biology as well. Recommend to anyone who needs help or just would like to improve their grade.

Chris was very good and clear as to how he could help my son improve his grade at AS level

This tutor is great, he helped me get from grade 6s to 9s in GCSEs!

Absolutely amazing… probably one of the best teachers I’ve had for any subject, let alone chemistry!! He’s more than happy to repeat things twice (or five times in my case) until I’ve memorised it. If you have a big class in school or missed a few lessons, the 1-to-1 or small group sessions are really beneficial. Not only can you learn at your own pace, but you can focus on chapters of the syllabus that individually you might have flawed knowledge of. On a less serious note, Chris is really kind and makes chemistry (almost) fun – he’s definitely saved me a good few nervous breakdowns! 1000 / 10 would recommend.

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.  

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.

Very helpful. Chris goes through each topic until you understand. He has very useful resources that will definitely help you to get good grades.

Chris has been a great tutor for our daughter. He is very knowledgeable and has really helped with her classwork and exam technique. He is thorough and efficient and always on time.

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.

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!

Chris has been a brilliant tutor so far and has helped me to fill the gaps in my knowledge and understand of topics that I didn’t get previously. Already, I have seen an improvement in my chemistry due to Chris’s great teaching methods and useful revision resources.

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!

Chris is fantastic at explaining new topics and as a result improves my confidence in class a lot. He often goes through my exam technique and has many useful resources which are brilliant in aiding my revision. Would definitely recommend to anyone aiming for the top grades.

Friendly and approachable. Amazing resources and has been very helpful. Can recommend.

Chris is absolutely fantastic. He explains everything in a clear manner and he has improved my chemistry knowledge dramatically in a short period of time. Along with his excellent teaching skills, he has an impressive amount of resources which make revising much easier. I couldn’t recommend him highly enough.

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.
