Al Syed Online Academy · Online tutoring for UK students
Online GCSE & A Level tutors for UK students
One-to-one live lessons in Maths, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, Combined Science and English, taught around your exam board and your school week, in UK time.
Tutoring that follows your UK specification
GCSE, International GCSE and A Level courses look similar from the outside, but each exam board sets its own papers, mark schemes and command words. Before the first lesson we ask for your qualification, exam board, tier and exam date, so the tutor prepares the right material and not a generic syllabus.
| Qualification | Boards we ask about | Subjects |
|---|---|---|
| GCSE (England) | AQA, Pearson Edexcel, OCR, Eduqas | Maths, Combined Science, Biology, Chemistry, Physics, English |
| International GCSE / IGCSE | Cambridge, Pearson Edexcel International | Maths, sciences, English |
| A Level | AQA, Pearson Edexcel, OCR | Maths, Further Maths, Physics, Chemistry, Biology |
| IB Diploma | International Baccalaureate | Maths AA and AI, SL and HL |

Evening slots on school days, so the lesson fits after homework and clubs.
Weekends
Saturday and Sunday slots for longer sessions, mock review and past-paper practice.
Exam season
Extra sessions before mocks and final exams, planned with your tutor.
Why start early, not just before the exam
In more than 12 years of teaching Maths, the pattern we see most is students joining tuition only two or three months before their exams, when weak topics have already piled up and need a lot of attention. At school, the teacher often solves one question and then sets the whole exercise to do alone. One-to-one lessons close that gap: the tutor works through the steps with the student, then checks that they can do the next question themselves.
1. Understand
The tutor explains the idea and answers every question, without a class waiting.
2. Practise
Exam-style questions chosen for your board, tier and current topic.
3. Review
Mistakes are reviewed against the mark scheme, so the next paper goes better.

Questions UK parents ask
Which exam boards do you cover?
We work with AQA, Pearson Edexcel, OCR and Eduqas for GCSE and A Level, and Cambridge and Pearson Edexcel International for IGCSE. Tell us your board and specification when you book.
Is the first lesson free?
Yes. The demo class is free and carries no obligation. It lets the tutor check your level and the topics that need work.
What times can my child have lessons?
After-school and weekend slots are offered in UK time. We confirm the exact time with you and adjust for GMT and BST.
Do you teach both Foundation and Higher tier?
Tell us the tier when you enquire. For Science, say whether your child studies Combined Science or separate Biology, Chemistry and Physics.
How much do lessons cost?
The fee depends on the subject, level and lessons per week, and we confirm it before you commit. See the fees page.
