FAQ’s

1. When can my child start?

You can start at any time of the academic year and your child(ren) will make progress. However, to get the most out of the booster classes we recommend starting at the beginning of the academic year.

5. How do you teach?

Our booster classes are designed to compliment all the major examination boards with a particular focus on boards utilized by local sixth form and colleges. There is a significant overlap in content and material required between the different examination boards, especially since the recent changes to the AS / A Level biology specifications.

6. Do you give homework?

Yes, students are given homework on a weekly basis (except for assessment weeks). All homework is based on what our learners have learnt in the lesson and is designed to reinforce their learning. Once returned, homework is marked and explained with further examples.

Homework will vary on a week by week basis. However, if pupils would like additional homework, their tutor can make the relevant arrangements within reason.

AS and A Level students receive a report at the end of every term, this report highlights the work they have covered, progress made, targets going forward and end of term assessment results. Parents can also request to speak to their child’s biology tutor at the end of the lesson to get a quick update.

9. What qualifications and experience do the tutors have?

All our AS / A Level biology tutors are subject specialists and the vast majority are also qualified teachers with Qualified Teacher Status (QTS). Our AS / A Level biology tutors have experience delivering exam board specific AS / A Level matrialial.

10. What will they be taught for AS / A Level biology?

Rated ‘Excellent’ by our parents

My daughter has been attending 1-to-1 A level tuition since January at the West Bromwich Centre. She has had great tuition and covered all the topics she wanted. She is very complimentary about the tutors preparation and knowledge. She is now much more confident and is making fantastic progress in her tests at college for her A levels. I’m really pleased with the progress she has made and would like to thank the centre for having a such a good tutor & system.
