"Natasha helped our son on weekly online sessions with Biology, Physics and Chemistry GCSE syllabus. Having come from overseas he felt he needed some support and consolidation in these subjects and Natasha was able to do that with her amazing knowledge across the three sciences. She is kind and positive, and established a great rapport with our son, really helping him and boosting his confidence which in turn, enabled him to gain A* in all three subjects at GCSE. We love Natasha! "
Mother of GCSE Science student"Thanks to my tutor Kate, I discovered a passion for biology that I previously was not aware of. We often say that students learn better and get better grades when they like the teacher. Kate is the proof that this is true. Unfortunately, this year due to school closures we have not been able to prove our abilities during the end of year exams but I am sure that I would have performed really well thanks to Kate’s tutoring"

Keystone Tutors represents a large team of passionate and experienced Biology tutors. The tutors we work with have detailed knowledge of the various Biology curricula and have an outstanding ability to connect with their students, impart their subject knowledge, explain concepts and increase subject confidence.
We can provide Biology tuition tailored to specific exams, for 13+ Common Entrance, GCSE Biology, IGCSE Biology, IB Biology, A Level Biology, and the Oxbridge admissions tests including NSAA tuition. We help to improve exam performance by making use of past Biology papers, reinforcing core learning, developing revision techniques, and helping students to push the boundaries of their knowledge of Biology to differentiate themselves from fellow students. We also work with students who are looking to building their subject confidence in Biology.
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.

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.
