We Can make the difference

I went from 43% in first year to receiving a masters offer at the LSE! Having almost failed my first year I decided to get tutoring from The Profs in my second year. Thanks to the brilliant quality of the tutors I managed to score a 1st in my second year and receive an offer for the LSE Masters in Management. A big thank you to The Profs.

A Level Physics Tutors: Frequently Asked Questions
Why are The Profs' A-Level physics tutors considered subject specialists rather than general tutors?
The Profs' A-Level physics tutors are subject specialists selected through a rigorous United Kingdom recruitment process. They are not generalist tutors drawn from an open directory - each A-Level physics tutor is matched to a student's exam board, specification and target grade so support is precise from the first lesson. This specialist approach delivers focused physics tutoring that builds conceptual understanding, exam technique and long-term learning for the student, with attention to the mathematics skills and problem solving required by the A-Level curriculum.
How does The Profs select and vet its A-Level physics tutors?
The Profs accepts around 3% of applicants and requires every A-Level physics tutor to meet strict standards before any student match:
- All A-Level physics tutors hold a university degree; 98% hold a postgraduate qualification and 45% hold a Doctor of Philosophy or equivalent
- Every tutor has a minimum of two years' teaching or tutoring experience, with the average experience well above 10 years
- Tutors are enhanced DBS-checked and verified - see our DBS check reference
- Many tutors are current or former teachers, examiners or working professionals in physics, engineering or related science disciplines
- Each A-Level physics tutor is vetted specifically against A-Level specifications (AQA, Edexcel, OCR and relevant IGCSE/GCSE progression requirements)
Our physics tutors combine high-level academic knowledge with classroom and examiner experience. Typical qualifications and experience include:
- Postgraduate degrees such as an MSc or PhD in Physics, Engineering or Mathematics
- PGCE or qualified teacher status for tutors who are current or former teachers
- Experience as examiners or senior markers for awarding bodies, giving them detailed insight into exam technique and common pitfalls
- Extensive experience teaching A-Level content and preparing students for university courses in Physics, Engineering and other STEM subjects
How do The Profs' one-to-one A-Level physics lessons help students improve exam performance?
Lessons are structured to develop deep understanding and exam technique rather than rote learning. A typical programme for an A-Level physics student will include:
- Diagnostic assessment of knowledge gaps and misconception mapping
- Targeted lessons on core concepts - mechanics, electromagnetism, quantum and thermal physics - linked to the A-Level curriculum
- Past-paper practice with examiner-style feedback and timing strategy to improve exam technique
- One-to-one tuition that adapts to the student's learning style and pace, focusing on mathematical methods where required
The Profs reports strong outcomes across its tutoring network. For A-Level students the service has led to high rates of grade improvement and university progression:
- 92% of school-aged students working with The Profs improve by at least one grade* - this is indicative for A-Level physics students who commit to term-time support
- 68% of A-Level students achieve an A* or A grade across subjects, reflecting intensive one-to-one tuition impact
- Progress is tracked session-by-session so the student and parent can see improvements in understanding, exam technique and confidence

- Session reports that document concepts covered, exam technique worked on, and homework assigned
- Termly progress reviews to decide whether to adjust lesson focus, frequency or switch tutors if required
Yes. For students progressing from GCSE or IGCSE, our A-Level physics tutors provide bridging support to ensure the necessary mathematical and conceptual foundations are secure. This often includes targeted revision of GCSE physics topics and additional mathematics practice to meet the demands of A-Level mechanics and calculus-based modules.

- A short recap of previous material and clarification of any misconceptions
- Worked examples and step-by-step problem solving using the shared whiteboard
- Targeted exam practice with feedback on technique and timing
- Homework and a clear plan for the next session to maintain steady progress
The Profs operates strict safeguarding and quality controls. All tutors complete enhanced DBS checks and KYC verification, are subject to continuous monitoring and receive training on online safeguarding, feedback practice and academic integrity. Parents and students can request tutor credentials and session recordings at any time.
