Home › GCSE chemistry tutoring
Chemistry splits into a part students can memorise and a part they cannot. The calculations are where grades are decided, and they are the part most revision guides handle worst.
The same few things cost most students most of their marks. These are the ones we attack first.
Usually taught as a formula to memorise, which falls apart in multi-step questions. We build it up so the steps follow from what the question gives you.
Slow and error-prone under exam pressure. Practice here pays off across the whole paper, since equations appear everywhere.
Carrying a rounded value into the next step is a standing source of lost accuracy marks in titration questions.
Learning names without the pattern means every new compound is a fresh memory task. The pattern makes the names predictable.
Calculation questions are drilled until the method is automatic, then done under timing. For practicals, we work through the method, the variables and the standard sources of error, since those questions recur year after year.
Edexcel IGCSE by default, with AQA and OCR GCSE also taught. Bring your spec and your past papers.
Tell us the exam board and year group on the enquiry form and we will match you with whichever tutor fits best.
Founder & Tutor
Maths · Biology · Chemistry · Physics · Computer Science · Spanish
Sameen founded Yunalo after he began tutoring other students during his own GCSEs. He still teaches, and he set up the way Yunalo runs — lessons written up the same day, homework tracked, progress visible to parents rather than taken on trust.

Maxi teaches English, History, Maths, the sciences, Design & Technology and GCSE Further Maths. He achieved Grade 9s across all ten of his GCSE and IGCSE subjects, alongside a Distinction* in Edexcel Level 2 Extended Mathematics.
Every lesson is written up the same day. You get what we covered, what went well, and the specific thing to work on next — not a tick in a box.
Homework, lesson write-ups, past-paper scores and invoices all live in a private portal. You sign in and see the whole history, rather than hunting through messages.
Online lessons take place on Zoom, using shared whiteboards or presentations where helpful. Home-based lessons are available within West Hampstead only, by arrangement and subject to tutor availability.
Parents are welcome to sit in on any lesson, with no notice.

You can cancel a lesson free of charge with at least 24 hours’ notice. For cancellations with less than 24 hours’ notice, 50% of the agreed lesson fee is payable. Your child’s wellbeing comes first: if your child is unwell, we will waive the cancellation charge, and we consider other genuine exceptional circumstances with understanding.

Personalised homework is set after most lessons and handed in through the portal. It comes back with written feedback rather than just a mark, and everything stays on record so patterns are visible over time.
