A-Level Chemistry can feel like a big step up. We match your child with a one-to-one tutor who understands their exam board, explains difficult ideas clearly and helps them approach calculations, mechanisms and exam questions with more confidence.

online Chemistry lessons
Tell us where your child feels stuck. We will use their year, exam board, current topics and schedule to recommend a suitable tutor.
Course-specific support
The jump from GCSE can feel sudden. Ideas become more abstract, calculations become longer and exam questions expect greater precision. We focus lesson time on the parts your child actually needs help with.

Exact specification first
Two students can study the same Chemistry topic but sit very different papers. We confirm the exact course first, so the tutor, questions and revision plan all stay relevant.

Focused support for physical, inorganic and organic Chemistry, mathematical skills, required practical knowledge, synoptic questions and preparation for Papers 1, 2 and 3.
A-Level Chemistry
Lessons follow the student's specification and can target current units, multi-step calculations, organic pathways, practical understanding, data interpretation and structured exam responses.
OCR A / OCR B Salters
We confirm whether the student follows OCR A or OCR B Salters before recommending a tutor, so lessons and practice stay relevant to the right course.
A-Level Chemistry
International students can learn with a tutor matched to their Cambridge course, current stage and most important assessment priorities.
Chemistry diagnosis
Sometimes the knowledge is there, but the marks still do not follow. The problem may be application, units, terminology, practical reasoning or timing. Finding that cause is the first step towards useful tuition.
Knows reactions but forgets mechanisms
Pattern understanding
Gets the method right but loses final calculation marks
Units, signs or multi-step working
Understands theory but struggles with unfamiliar questions
Application
Loses marks on practical questions
Method, data or evaluation
Organic Chemistry feels like memorisation
Weak reaction relationships
Paper 3 performance is weaker
Synoptic and practical application
Extended answers are vague
Chemical terminology and precision
Runs out of time
Exam planning and question prioritisation
Core Chemistry branches
The course feels more manageable when students can see how its main branches connect. Tutors explain the ideas clearly, then help students use them in calculations and exam questions.
Build a clearer understanding of atomic structure, bonding, energetics, kinetics, equilibria, acids and bases, thermodynamics, electrochemistry and rate equations.
See the connections between periodicity, group chemistry, transition metals, complex ions, redox chemistry, trends and reactions instead of memorising isolated facts.
Make sense of functional groups, isomerism, reaction pathways, mechanisms, aromatic chemistry, carbonyl chemistry, amines, polymers and synthesis.
Calculation confidence
A correct idea can still lose marks through one missed unit or an unclear step. A consistent method helps your child work more accurately and check whether an answer makes chemical sense.
Identify data → choose the relationship → substitute correctly → track units → calculate → check whether the answer is chemically reasonable
Mole calculations
Concentration and gases
Percentage yield and atom economy
Energetics
Equilibrium constants
Rate equations
pH and logarithms
Electrochemistry
Uncertainty and data interpretation
High-friction topics
Organic mechanisms
The tutor shows your child where electrons move, why bonds change and how reaction conditions shape the pathway. This gives unfamiliar mechanisms a pattern they can follow.
Practical skills
Lessons help students explain methods, interpret results and evaluate experiments with more precision. Required laboratory work still takes place through the student's school.
Spectroscopy and synthesis
Students learn how spectra, structures, reagents and conditions connect. Instead of guessing, they follow the evidence towards a supported conclusion.
Paper 3 and synoptic work
Where the student's board uses this structure, lessons practise unfamiliar data, practical reasoning, linked concepts and multi-step questions in a calm, structured way.
Existing tutor profiles
A good match is about more than qualifications. We consider the student's course, current difficulty, preferred teaching style and availability before recommending a tutor.

Tell us the year, exam board, current topics, recent results, main concerns and lesson times that work for your family.
We look for the right balance of Chemistry knowledge, A-Level experience, board familiarity, teaching style and availability.
Your child meets the recommended tutor, discusses current priorities and experiences the teaching style before you commit to regular lessons.
Lessons focus on the areas that matter now. If the match does not feel right, you can ask us to recommend another tutor.
Clear starting rate
The exact rate depends on the tutor and the support your child needs. We confirm it clearly before regular lessons begin, with no hidden fees.

Parents should not have to piece progress together from scattered messages. The Combo platform keeps sessions, resources, feedback and current priorities organised in one place.

Why Combo Tutors
Your child receives focused one-to-one teaching, while the Combo Tutors team helps manage the match, communication and support around every lesson.
We check the student's actual course before recommending a tutor or choosing practice material.
Lessons address what is causing lost marks instead of taking the student back through the whole syllabus.
The tutor can adapt every explanation, calculation and question to your child's needs.
Our team reviews the requirement and recommends a relevant tutor, so you do not have to compare hundreds of profiles.
If the first tutor is not right for your child, you can ask us for another recommendation.
The Combo Tutors team helps with scheduling, communication and tutor concerns throughout the relationship.
For support across other subjects and curricula, explore our one-to-one online tutoring service.
Find The Right Tutor
Tell us what your child is studying, what feels difficult and when they are available. Our team normally recommends a suitable tutor within 24 hours, and you can meet them before deciding what happens next.

A-Level Chemistry FAQ
An A-Level Chemistry tutor first identifies what is causing the difficulty. Lessons can then focus on subject knowledge, calculations, practical understanding, organic mechanisms, data interpretation or exam technique instead of repeating the whole course.
We support selected AQA, Pearson Edexcel, OCR and Cambridge International Chemistry pathways. We confirm the exact qualification before matching so the tutor and practice material fit the student's course.
Yes. A tutor can explain reaction patterns, electrophiles, nucleophiles, curly arrows and reaction conditions before moving into focused exam questions.
Yes. Tutors can work through moles, energetics, equilibria, kinetics, pH, electrochemistry and other calculations using a clear method the student can repeat independently.
Yes. Online lessons can cover practical methods, data analysis, uncertainty, evaluation and written practical questions. Required laboratory work still takes place through the student's school.
Yes, where Paper 3 is relevant to the student's exam board. Lessons can cover synoptic questions, practical reasoning, unfamiliar data and questions that connect several topics.
Yes. Students can start in Year 12 or Year 13 for weekly support, help with one difficult topic, mock preparation or final exam revision.
Yes. You can book focused help for one topic such as equilibria, organic mechanisms, spectroscopy, thermodynamics or calculations without restarting the full syllabus.
One-to-one A-Level Chemistry tutoring starts from $15 per hour. We confirm the exact rate before regular lessons begin, based on the tutor and the support required.
Yes. Your child can meet the recommended tutor in a free 30-minute trial before you decide whether to book regular lessons.
