A-level Modern Greek tutors
1 UK tutor who teach Modern Greek at A-level.
Modern Greek is offered at GCSE and A-level (Edexcel and OCR have run it; provision can shift) and is taken predominantly by heritage speakers from British Greek and Greek Cypriot families. The cohort usually has strong oral skills but needs work on the formal written register, on the script (the polytonic vs monotonic question rarely matters at this level — monotonic is standard), and on the grammar precision exam papers reward. The Cypriot dialect/Standard Modern Greek distinction can show up in oral exams. Look for native fluency in Standard Modern Greek and explicit experience with the specific UK board the student is sitting.
A-levels are sat at the end of Year 13 (age 17-18) and are the standard UK university-entrance qualification, with most students taking 3 subjects (sometimes 4 plus an EPQ). Grades A*-E feed UCAS, and competitive university courses set offers at AAA or higher. Tutoring helps most with the step up from GCSE — A-levels demand independent learning, denser content, and exam technique that rewards structured argument or method-mark-aware working. Boards (AQA, Edexcel, OCR, Eduqas, CIE) diverge meaningfully — match the tutor to the spec, especially in maths, sciences and modern languages where assessment differences are sharp.
