Our academic consultants will find the perfect tutor for you!

In China, students have several alternatives to A-Levels for their pre-university education. The primary option is the Gaokao, China’s national college entrance exam, which is highly rigorous and widely accepted by Chinese universities. The Gaokao is known for its intense preparation and is considered a critical step for students aiming to attend top-tier universities within China.

Another popular alternative is the International Baccalaureate (IB) programme, offered by many international schools in China. The IB is recognised globally and valued for its holistic approach to education, fostering critical thinking and international-mindedness. Additionally, some schools provide the American Advanced Placement (AP) courses, which are especially popular among students planning to study in the United States. These courses offer college-level curricula and the opportunity to earn college credit.

Furthermore, students can pursue the Chinese High School Diploma, which is recognised by local universities and some international institutions. For those interested in vocational education, the Chinese Vocational Education and Training (VET) system provides practical and career-oriented training, catering to various industries and professions.

Secondary education in China generally follows a rigorous curriculum with a strong emphasis on mathematics, science, and language studies. Students typically attend junior secondary school for three years, followed by senior secondary school for another three years. The education system places a high value on academic achievement, with many students attending supplementary tutoring and preparation courses to excel in their studies.

At TutorChase, we provide comprehensive online tutoring to support students preparing for these diverse qualifications across China, ensuring they achieve their academic goals and succeed in their chosen pathways.

The cost of A-Level tutoring in China typically falls within the range of CN¥372 to CN¥745 per hour. At TutorChase, A-level tutors start at CN¥455 per hour. Actual prices may vary depending on factors such as the tutor's qualifications, experience, and subject specialisation.

As we provide online tutoring, TutorChase can offer A-Level tutoring to students in any area of China. Our online platform ensures that students receive high-quality education regardless of their location. Specifically, we provide:

My teaching style is problem-focused: first I explain the key concepts, then demonstrate with examples. We will work through problems, before I ask you to complete one independently and provide feedback.



As a student, I delve into the fundamentals of Quantum Physics, trying to understand the strange phenomena it gives us, and how we can exploit them to our advantage. As a teacher, I foster the skills and intuition which make a great scientist, so that my students develop confidence in their subject, and learn to appreciate the beauty of Natural Sciences.

At some point in my academic career, I realized one cannot be a great physicist without also being a great teacher. Richard Feynman once said: “If you can’t explain something in simple terms, you don’t understand it” — and he was absolutely right!

I like to stay immersed in physics: to me, problem-solving is both a craft, and a pastime. This is why I find teaching so important, and why I’ll go to great lengths to pass on my enthusiasm. Whether you’re curious about a new concept, or stuck on a problem, I am available outside of lessons, just a text away!

At university, I used my exam preparation skills to mentor Oxford applicants through an organisation called Project Access, as well as offered PAT and Interview preparation for students at my sixth form. Two of my former mentees are now studying Physics and PhysPhil respectively. Along with the Polish Society, I co-organised and gave talks at the myOXperience programme (https://www.myoxperience.pl/en/) for polish high schoolers, many of whom are now studying at top UK universities.

Currently, I supervise seven 1st year Natural Science undergraduates at Emmanuel College, Cambridge every week, teaching them the Physics Syllabus. I also tutor A-Level Maths & Physics regularly, having recently helped a student improve her grade during her mock exams.

In addition to this, I have past experience with tutoring for AP Exams, GCSEs, and University Admissions - from helping applicants write their personal statement to preparing for entrance exams (PAT, MAT, ENGAA and more). I also have extensive experience in giving Mock Interviews to candidates for Maths, Physics, Engineering and Philosophy.

Our tutors go through a rigorous selection process, having been interviewed to assess their teaching skills and subject knowledge.

Wei Yao - Singapore Maths Tutor with Masters | TutorChase

My approach to tutoring is rooted in the belief that understanding is more important than rote memorization. When starting with a new student, I assess their current level and identify any gaps in their knowledge. From there, I tailor my lessons to their specific needs, breaking down complex topics into manageable parts. I emphasise the importance of understanding the underlying principles in mathematics, as this helps students solve a wide variety of problems, not just those they've seen before.

I make use of past paper questions to familiarize students with the types and format of questions they can expect in their exams, simultaneously providing regular feedback on their progress. I believe learning mathematics can be enjoyable, and I strive to make my lessons engaging and interactive, often employing real-life examples and practical applications to aid understanding.

I encourage my students to approach Mathematics with curiosity and creativity. I provide constructive feedback on their independent work and track their progress meticulously, offering tailored advice to enhance their performance. During exam season, I shift focus to time management strategies and efficient answering techniques, giving my students a comprehensive toolkit to tackle their examinations with confidence.

Over the last six years, I've spent more than 1,000 hours teaching A-Level and IGCSE Mathematics to diverse groups of students in Singapore. My students have consistently improved their grades and demonstrated increased confidence in their mathematical abilities. I pride myself on being able to explain complex concepts in an accessible way, always aiming to make Maths less intimidating for my students.

I have experience in both one-on-one settings and group lessons. Additionally, I've been successful in preparing students for major examinations, with many of my students achieving their desired grades or even exceeding their initial expectations. I've received excellent feedback from students and parents alike, praising my patience, the clarity of my explanations, and my dedication to each student's individual success.

Our tutors go through a rigorous selection process, having been interviewed to assess their teaching skills and subject knowledge.

I have 13 years of teaching experience directly in the classroom. For the past 8 years I have taught students in an International school setting within the IGCSE and IB/A-Level framework. I am very proud of the results my IB and IGCSE students get from my classroom teaching (many achieve Level 9 IGCSE or Level 7 in IB HL) but I get equal pleasure from helping students to engage and fall in love with Chemistry (as it’s really the best subject!).

Having developed my teaching style over the years I am able to spot where students need support and provide lots of scaffolding for them to get there.

I have experience teaching thousands of students in Biology, Chemistry and Physics and enjoy watching students learn and develop their skills.

I am used to working with students who have high aspirations. Part of my role that I enjoy most is being able to give them ideas about future jobs / career pathways as well as University courses as many of my students have received places to go to Oxford/Cambridge/Harvard etc.

Being a dyslexic learner myself, and having worked in diverse schools in Manchester at the beginning of my training, I have a good range of experience of working with students who struggle to retain information, or those who need it broken down in a more manageable way.

I first started tutoring in Manchester during my PGCE (I qualified in 2011 and have my NQT status) and really enjoyed the one to one benefit of building a relationship with students and seeing them grow in confidence. I now do this within my classroom.

Having taught since 2010 I am used to working with a range of learners, including those who find Chemistry (and the Sciences) a challenge and I relish the opportunity to help students feel more secure in their subject and get to their end goal. 

I am a dedicated biologist with a Master’s degree from the University of Hong Kong, specialising in molecular biology. With a passion for teaching, I've been tutoring IGCSE and A-Level students for over four years. I excelled in my own IGCSE and A-Level exams, and I am eager to help students achieve their academic goals.

My tutoring strategy begins with assessing the individual needs of each student. For A-Level and IGCSE exams, I aim to ensure the student has a deep understanding of the key concepts in biology. I encourage my students to adopt a problem-solving approach to understand and apply biological concepts, which I believe is more effective than rote learning. I also emphasize the importance of past paper practice, and provide detailed feedback on their answers to enhance their examination skills.

Additionally, I use visual aids and practical examples from everyday life to make the concepts more relatable and easy to grasp. In addition to teaching the curriculum, I assist with coursework and give tips on how to effectively manage time and study efficiently. It is my utmost priority to create a supportive learning environment that helps students overcome any difficulties they might encounter in their studies.

In the past four years, I've dedicated over 800 hours to tutoring IGCSE and A-Level students, with a particular emphasis on Biology. I've successfully prepared students for their exams, and many have achieved excellent grades under my guidance. My previous experience includes working at a renowned tutoring centre in Hong Kong and providing one-on-one home tuitions. I've also worked as a teaching assistant during my Master’s studies, providing me with additional insights into effective teaching methods.

My approach to tutoring is both empathetic and rigorous, and I have consistently received positive feedback from my students and their parents. I take great pride in my ability to inspire a love for biology and science in my students.

As an Oxbridge-educated Science teacher, I specialize in providing expert tuition in Science up to GCSE level and Biology at A Level. With my amiable and approachable demeanor, combined with a robust academic background, I bring hundreds of hours of teaching experience to the table. My dedication is rooted in a fervent passion for empowering students of diverse backgrounds to reach their highest potential. I’m committed to delivering personalized and impactful tutoring that nurtures each student’s unique academic journey.

NSAA

I aim to make tutoring sessions as useful and personalised as possible, taking into account my students’ needs. My teaching style is based on our current understanding of how learning actually takes place, so you can expect lots of interleaved retrieval practice with a focus on making the material stick! However, I also strongly believe in making learning fun, so I teach in a relaxed, conversational style using lots of hand-drawn diagrams and worked examples.

Science

There are two things you need to succeed in any exam, especially Science GCSEs and A Levels:

-Robust methods for memorising the specification content, such as active recall and spaced repetition
-A ton of practice in applying your knowledge in unfamiliar situations and contexts (past papers and as many exam questions as you can manage!)
In our tuition sessions I will help you with both of the above, using my experience and tried-and-tested teaching methods to boost your confidence and attainment - and hopefully have some fun along the way!

University applications

Having attended both the University of Cambridge and University of Oxford, I am fully aware of the myths surrounding the application process, especially the interviews! I am keen to dispel those myths and help you with writing an excellent personal statement and ace the interviews for Natural Sciences. I can also help you work through NSAA past papers and give you some general tips for approaching the questions.


I believe strongly that for tuition sessions to be effective, a good working relationship needs to be established. In our first session we will get to know each other, work out your strengths and weaknesses and discuss what you would like our sessions to focus on. I will then use the skills and knowledge I have developed through my 3 years of classroom teaching and 6 years of private tutoring experience to help you make progress.

I am flexible in my approach (no two students are the same, so no two tuition sessions should be the same!), but I always come back to techniques that are proven to be effective, such as spaced repetition, active recall and detailed work on exam questions. We will do lots of worked examples to help apply your knowledge and get you exam ready!

What you can expect:

-I teach on my iPad with an Apple Pencil - lots of diagrams, visuals, worked examples - and use other pieces of software to enhance your learning (e.g. Google Docs, collaborative whiteboards). No boring slideshows here!
-All session materials (notes, exam question packs etc.) will be made available to you in a shared Google Drive folder.
-A collaborative approach - I won't lecture at you, but work with you, getting you to start thinking more deeply about the subject and engage actively in your own learning.
-Flexible sessions, in length and in content.
-Exam technique and revision tips throughout.
-Hopefully some fun! (I am known for my cheesy jokes…)

I look forward to working with you - let's get you the grades you deserve! :)

I will firstly introduce the concept of the content by showing the importance and reasoning behind the topic.

This would be done by giving real world examples regarding the topic to allow them to understand its significance. I will then show them some example questions and demonstrate how to solve these questions. I will also use graphical methods to illustrate my points as this makes the concept easier to visualize.

After that, I will give them example questions to solve in class and ask them to show me their working. This is for me to grasp their understanding on the topic and to find out if any parts of the course is unclear. Besides, I will handpick exercise questions based on their weakness I identified in class and previous exercises completed.

I will also introduce past year questions so that students can manage their exam expectations and better gauge the difficultly level of exams. This would allow them to effectively strategize their exam preparation.

I have been providing tutoring for years. I am always patient in answering student's questions and tirelessly go the extra mile to ensure the student fully grasps the concept of the content. With my tutoring, we'll aim to successfully achieve a significant improvement in results we gain.

I am all too familiar with the stress and frustration that preparing for exams and entrance tests can bring. It can prove difficult for many bright, able students to fully communicate their ideas in these intense situations.

I believe that my experiences give me a unique and compassionate approach to helping students be not only academically but emotionally prepared for their studies, so that they can fulfil their full potential. Mathematics is a continual battle between the need for rigour and the need for intuitive understanding, and it's this balance that is often the hardest to strike. I aim to instil in students not only a confidence in use of notation and logical argument, but a confidence in their understanding of the underlying principles.

The MAT is a difficult test designed to encourage creative problem solving whilst using a minimum of prerequisite knowledge from school mathematics. My approach as both teacher and student has been to develop a large repository of useful examples and illustrative exercises, to familiarise the candidate with the more creative arguments necessary to tackle most MAT problems.

I try to focus on the ‘hook’ that students need in order to begin putting pen to paper and working through a problem, as it is this hurdle that I have found students struggle the most to overcome when compared to school, where it is apparent to most students what ‘type’ of question they are tackling even if the problem itself is difficult.

I have been operating as a private tutor for over 6 years. I have helped many students through all parts of the admissions process to Oxbridge including the MAT and interviews and other high profile universities.

I have tutored students all the way to PhD level. Most students I tutor are studying mathematics or physics, but I have taught mathematically focused modules in fields as varied as macroeconomics and mechanical engineering. In particular, I have extensive experience with students resitting exams rather than taking them for the first time, and with students applying for high-profile universities that require entrance tests and interviews.

Multiple students resitting their exams at university who have not only passed but have subsequently sought my services as a tutor for their studies moving forward. I have been proud to see their progress.

I am also employed by the University of Edinburgh and Heriot-Watt University to teach Mathematics undergraduates and masters students, marking their work and giving constructive feedback and instruction. Several students who have been taught by me in this capacity have then sought my help as a private tutor to supplement their university teaching.

In 2021, I graduated from Oxford with a degree in Chemistry. Additionally, I have accumulated several years of experience in tutoring in the subjects of Chemistry, Biology, and Mathematics.

GCSE Chemistry and Biology Tuition Approach

Chemistry and Biology require students to both understand and memorise a huge amount of content, which can seem overwhelming. I teach a 15-20 minute lesson (or revision lesson) on a topic at the start of a tutorial. Once students are comfortable that they’ve understood the material, I ask a student to work through topic-focussed past paper questions that I provide. I tend to use the final 10 minutes of a GCSE Chem or Bio tutorial as a rapid multiple-choice-question session on the area we have just covered; this helps the student practice recall of information and builds their confidence in the topic.

GCSE Maths Tuition Approach

For a student entering their final GCSE year, I typically ask students in our first session to complete a past paper in full, to the best of their ability. Although this can seem daunting, this provides a clear outline of a student’s mathematical strengths and weaknesses, and is the basis for my approach in planning the focus area of each tutorial going forwards. My GCSE Maths tutorials are generally one hour long, with 15-20 minutes of a concise lesson with worked examples, followed by students working through related questions, with help and guidance when a student is challenged by a question.

KS3 and 11+ Maths Tuition Approach

For younger Maths students, beginning with a session working through practice questions that a student is capable of answering, on an area of Maths in which they already feel confident, builds their confidence in their own abilities and their enthusiasm for tackling trickier topics.

A Level Chemistry Tuition Approach

A Level students might need the help of a tutor for a wide variety of reasons, from catching up on fundamental concepts to planning and executing a successful revision plan. An initial session would involve an in-depth discussion about how best to use their tutorial time and personal study time before their exam, and how tutorials can be structured to be as useful as possible for the student.

TSA Section 1 Tuition Approach

I ask students to sit a TSA past paper under timed conditions in their own time in order to establish a baseline level of attainment. General initial tutorials will focus on optimal exam technique with worked examples, and in-depth focus on the wording of critical thinking questions. Later tutorials will be based upon questions that students have answered incorrectly in the past papers provided, using practice questions written individually for each student to focus on their specific weaknesses.

GCSE Maths, Biology, Chemistry tuition: extensive experience tutoring students with a wide range of abilities. Experience in both remedial tutoring and tutoring with the goal of raising grades from 7-8 to 9.

KS3 Maths: experience in giving focussed catch-up classes to students who have fallen behind the curriculum.

Extended Essay

In my approach to tutoring English and aiding students in exam preparation, I employ a two-pronged strategy, with a focus on nurturing both their writing skills and their depth of understanding.


Firstly, my primary goal is to empower students to develop and articulate their own ideas effectively. To achieve this, I find it most valuable to work with the student's own written work. Together, we explore how to comprehend the essence of the question and structure their responses in a manner that aligns with the assessment criteria. This comprehensive approach takes into account various facets, including essay structure, writing techniques, and the skillful use of language to convey ideas persuasively.


Secondly, I place great emphasis on content support. In this aspect, I prefer to engage in a productive dialogue with the student. We discuss the literary texts in depth, examining different perspectives, approaches, and interpretations. Through this interactive exchange, the student not only gains a richer understanding of the material but also hones their analytical skills, enabling them to provide more insightful analyses of the works.


This dynamic and collaborative process fosters a deeper appreciation of literature and enhances the student's ability to engage critically with complex literary texts, ultimately equipping them with the tools needed for success in their exams.

Since September 2022, I've been tutoring, and since January 2018, I've been a part-time university lecturer at the University of the Witwatersrand. In my capacity as a lecturer, I've developed, taught, and assessed a wide range of literature courses, spanning from Beowulf to contemporary works.


I also gained experience as a tutor from January 2014 to December 2015, specializing in English education for students from preschool to grade 12.


I worked as a university writing consultant between July 2013 and December 2014, providing composition assistance to both undergraduate and postgraduate students across various disciplines. In my role as an undergraduate tutor from January 2010 to December 2011, I focused on academic writing, including composition, critical thinking, argumentation, editing, and presentation skills.


From February 2019 to September 2021, I had the opportunity to work as a contracted textbook writer, concentrating on English literature topics like poetry (Renaissance to present), The Handmaid's Tale, The Theory of Flight, and exam preparation.
