Help i need a chemistry tutor

Hey guys, so I desperately need a chemistry tutor because my teacher is really bad and I just don't understand anything he teaches in lessons, like I get the basics but I don't fully get it, or know how to answer the exam question. I'm going into year 11 and on my last mock I got a 7, which I know isn't bad but I want to do medicine and do chemistry a level and I feel like I need at least an 8 but preferably a 9, which I would be capable of if I had a good teacher. (I'm doing triple science btw) Does anyone know where to find affordable online tutors, and if so what you'd suggest me asking to cover in tutoring? Thanks :smile:

I made a sort of RAG scoring scale and C1 and C2 are fine (had a diff teacher for them and theyre quite simple anyway), C3 is alright but not 100 percent, C4 C5 and what I've done of C6 are all oranges and reds

This is the link to view all the tutors:
https://preply.com/en/online/chemistry-tutors
You can adjust the price and what country you want the tutor from.
You get a trial lesson then can get a free refund if you dont like the tutor experinence.
I did Chemistry tutoring with 'Zilmarig' and then 'Iqra. S' but they've increased their prices since then.
Hope that helps

be careful selecting tutors. someone mentioned tutors for £2. That's not even funny. Don't get someone who is in school either just coz it's cheap.they don't have a clue what theyre doing teaching wise, even if theyre good at chemistry themselves. It's all about simplifying and explaining and above all...experience. Even students in uni are just looking to make a few bucks on the side. if you're serious about improvement, find an actual tutor who specialises in A-level chemistry. Not someone who tutors about 100 subjects and is just after your money. Budget does come into it of course, but it's best to get one good session for say £40 once a fortnight than 4 sessions at a £10 from some chancer!

The £2 tutors are usually abroad but if you send them what content you want to cover, they cover it really good, from my experience. I started chemistry with a lady called Zilamrig who started with £2 but then increased her prices - she was a gold medalist in chemistry so yeah
I'm not even trying to be funny - you can check yourself on Preply, its a bargain.
All you need to do is send them the content and specification - yeah some cheap tutors were kind of trash but thats what the free trial lessons are for tbh.
