Knowledgeable and experienced A-level chemistry tutor
About
I am a qualified and experienced lecturer in Chemistry with over 20 years experience of teaching including one-to-one tutoring.
I am qualified to doctorate level in chemistry from the University of Oxford and have an extensive subject knowledge and great enthusiasm for the subject. I have also completed a PGDE in secondary science giving me experience of teaching A-level, AS-level and GCSE chemistry and physics.
I have extensive experience of tutoring A-level chemistry built up over 11 years. The results have been positive with students achieving the grades that they need to get on to their chosen university course including medicine, dentistry etc. I also organise, through my job, a popular A-level chemistry revision course each year.
I am happy to offer a free trial session for any potential student as it is important to make sure you have the right tutor for you. For that reason I will not contact you so if you are interested please message me and I will reply.
Please note that I only tutor A-level chemistry on the Wirral and I do not tutor online or at weekends. I am also happy to offer small group, one off or occasional sessions - contact me if you are interested.

Reviews from First Tutors
Imported from Andrew F.'s First Tutors profile before the site went dark. Shown separately from Tutorperch reviews — today they don't feed this tutor's Tutorperch rating or ranking.
How we verify these
Each imported review went through admin review. The tutor proved ownership of the First Tutors profile via one of two paths:
- Photo match. The First Tutors avatar matched the tutor's identity-verified Tutorperch photo, confirmed by admin.
- Cryptographic email check. The tutor uploaded an original First Tutors email (.eml). We verified the DKIM signature against First Tutors' signing keys and cross-checked the embedded tutor ID against the claimed profile.
The review text is the original reviewer's own words, quoted as-is. We verified the tutor's ownership of the profile, not the truth of what each individual reviewer wrote.

My daughter is really enjoying her sessions with Andrew. She says he explains things clearly, and she has been able to grasp concepts that she had previously struggled with.

We asked Andrew to tutor our daughter to assist her in her A level Physics. He was excellent and our daughter flourished with his help. She attained an A and this meant she was able to go to the university of her choice. We can not recommend Andrew highly enough. Many thanks

My daughter found him easy to talk to and was at ease. He explained things logically. Very much looking forward to seeing how my daughters knowledge and confidence improves once regular tutor sessions commence .

Andrew was great with the communications and very flexible working around my daughter's holiday schedule. He explained things clearly and helped her complete a couple of modules that she had struggled with. He also gave her the confidence to believe in herself again and she's gone back to university happier and working much more efficiently. Thank you.
