Tuition in Southgate
Chemistry & Maths Tutor in Southgate
I teach one-to-one GCSE and A-Level Maths and Chemistry in Southgate, in person and online, alongside teaching A-Level Chemistry full-time in a sixth-form classroom.
Southgate sits in the middle of the area I cover, between Cockfosters and the Finchley end, in N14. I tutor GCSE and A-Level Maths and Chemistry here, in person or online, at the same rate either way. Chemistry is what I teach full-time in a sixth-form classroom, so the A-Level specification is the one I work with every day rather than one I revisit.
What I teach in Southgate
GCSE and A-Level, Maths and Chemistry
- A-LevelChemistryPhysical, inorganic and organic chemistry (the three pillars the whole subject rests on), plus the exam technique that turns understanding into marks.
- A-LevelMathsPure maths and applied maths: mechanics and statistics. Building the algebraic fluency everything else depends on, and the structured method that earns full marks.
- GCSEChemistrySeparate Science and Combined Science (Trilogy). Foundation to Higher, including required practicals and the 6-mark extended responses.
- GCSEMathsFoundation and Higher. Targeted work on the topics that make the difference between grades, rather than working through past papers without a clear focus.
Cost
How much does tuition in Southgate cost?
A single one-to-one session costs between £70 and £80 an hour, depending on the subject and the level. The rate is the same whether we meet in person in Southgate or work online.
Booking a block brings that down: six sessions or twelve, with the twelve-session rate reaching £60 an hour at GCSE. Pairs and small groups cost less again per student.

Questions
Questions parents in Southgate ask
Do you teach in person or online?
Both, at the same rate. Southgate is inside the area I travel to for in-person sessions. I teach full-time, so I keep face-to-face slots close to home; online is available UK-wide and works just as well.
Which exam boards do you cover?
Every major board. AQA and Edexcel are my main specialisms, and I work regularly with OCR A and B, Cambridge CIE and Edexcel IGCSE.
What happens in the first session?
It is diagnostic. We work through recent work or part of a past paper together and I identify what is actually going wrong, which is usually narrower and more specific than the student expects.
How long before we see improvement?
Exam technique often shows up within two or three sessions, because it is about how existing knowledge is presented. Content gaps take longer, typically six to ten sessions.
Are you DBS checked?
Yes. An Enhanced DBS check for the child workforce, maintained through my full-time teaching role, and registered with the DBS Update Service.
