Depends what you need help with. Some sites provide excellent videos for some topics and poor videos for other topics, If you narrow it down for me i could help you find what you need !

i mean at the moment, i am doing AS, first year so videos on those topics would be helpful. Its mainly the mathematical side i have issues with like:

Moles
Titration
Oxidation Numbers
Periodicity

I wouldn't reccomend for A2 stuff, but he's great for AS.

I will look into the videos for you, but in the meantime, i'm currently in my 3rd year of my chemistry degree, so if you need any help in these subjects im happy to help you, just shoot me a pm. You will find all those topics hard now but a couple of months down the line they will be easy haha.

Thank you for the encouragement, im hoping for an A/A* as i really enjoy it . I was wondering how is chemistry at degree level and what are you hoping to do after your degree?

Chemistry at degree level is quite enjoyable if you find chemistry interesting. It starts to go more in depth in to the underlying knowledge of what they teach you at A-level (aka) Pretty much the stuff they teach you at A level is very very very very simplified. You can branch of into stuff you enjoy more. Im more of an physical chemist but that is just my preference !

I plan to finish my project this year, and then i plan on doing a masters in Nano chemistry research, after that i dont really know haha.

I don't know if he has updated videos for the new spec but the old content is borderline identical just rearranged. This guys videos were really pretty useful

check out a YT channel called machemguy.
also dont make the mistake of sticking to videos that only does your exam board. if you find a video that explains a topic which is part of your spec then i'd recommend watching it. science is science wherever you go.
with that in mind, i'd also strongly recommend checking out khan academy. michel van biezen yt channel also does some vids on chem so if they cater to your needs why not?
