Additional information and experience - Chris S.

I have taught to the very highest level within some of the country's most prestigous schools, both within the State and Private sectors. Awarded Advanced Skills Teacher (AST) status within the first tranche of assessed secondary teachers, I have promoted Chemistry throughout my career and developed a wealth of experience. I am an inspirational teacher who knows how best to tailor my tuition to support students to fulfil their potential.

During my career I have supported numerous students through successful Oxbridge applications and have seen three of my students attain Top Candidate Awards for their performances within their A Level examinations; truly remarkable given that they were competing against a national cohort in excess of 30,000 entrants. I have seen many of my students go on to attain Gold Awards in the Chemistry Olympiad in Year 13 and had several achieve the top Roentgenium Award within the Cambridge Chemistry Challenge Lower Sixth (C3L6).

Equally, I have taught many students who have found Chemistry a real challenge; I have an impressive record of success in bolstering their confidence and allowing them to achieve beyond their initial expectations. Having taught over 1500 students at GCSE/IGCSE I have never had a student fall below a Grade C; this despite teaching for many years in a non-selective, London comprehensive. Over 70% have attained top A/A* or Level 8/9 grades.

One of the most experienced A Level teachers within the country, I have taught over 750 students; over 90% attaining Grade C or above, with over 70% achieving A/A* grades.
