How do you start?

Request a free intro call: it is a conversation about your goals and timeline, not a lesson or a test. On the free intro call we look at your current A Level level and your goals — a recent score report or a piece of marked work helps — and the study plan is built from there, before you pay for anything. The intro call is a conversation, not a lesson or a test.

A-Level Biology — Frequently Asked Questions

What is covered in each year of A-Level Biology?

In a typical course order the first year covers Biological Molecules, Cells, Organisms Exchange Substances and Genetic Information, and the second covers Energy Transfers, Organisms Respond to Environment, Genetics & Ecosystems and Control of Gene Expression. The papers, their weighting and how the AS relates to the full A Level differ by board, so lessons follow your board's specification. Second-year content builds on the first, which is why gaps left in the first year tend to surface later.

What does A-Level Biology cover?

Across the two years the course covers 8 units: Biological Molecules, Cells, Organisms Exchange Substances, Genetic Information, Energy Transfers and 3 more. Unit names and grouping vary by board.

How long does A-Level Biology tutoring take?

It depends on where you are starting. Students working alongside school through the year often take one lesson a week; students revising for a resit or repairing one part of the course usually work in a shorter, more intensive block. Which suits you is agreed on the free intro call.
