Keystone Tutors represents a large team of passionate and experienced Chemistry tutors. The tutors we work with have detailed knowledge of the various Chemistry curricula and have an outstanding ability to connect with their students, impart their subject knowledge, explain concepts and increase subject confidence.
We can provide Chemistry tuition tailored to specific exams, for 13+ Common Entrance, GCSE Chemistry, IGCSE Chemistry, IB Chemistry, A Level Chemistry, and the Oxbridge admissions tests including NSAA tuition. We help to improve exam performance by making use of past Chemistry papers, reinforcing core learning, developing revision techniques, and helping students to push the boundaries of their knowledge of Chemistry to differentiate themselves from fellow students. We also work with students who are looking to building their subject confidence in Chemistry.
All tutoring is tailored to the individual needs of each child based on their strengths, areas of development, learning style and their subject exam board.
Established in 2007, Keystone have helped over 10,000 students fulfil their educational potential.

We go the extra mile to match a great Chemistry tutor with your child and ensure a perfect fit.
When you request a Chemistry tutor through Keystone we spend a significant amount of time learning about your circumstances. Priding ourselves on how well we know our tutors’ specialist strengths, we ensure that we put forward the very best tutor for your requirements.
During the first session the tutor starts by assessing where the child is at, their academic ability, their strengths and perceived weaknesses. Tutors will then devise a programme tailored to the specific circumstances of the student.
After the first lesson, one of our dedicated client managers will contact you to find out how the lesson went. Our client managers are always available at the end of the phone and they are frequently praised for their efficiency, dedication and responsiveness.
