I am very pleased I purchased the platinum support package for my daughter… Chemistry tuition from Fatima was excellent, and my daughter believes it to be a firm part of her gaining her A grade (school predicted C). On results day, she secured a place to study medicine and is delighted. I don’t think this would have been the case without Medichut’s support.

A-Level Biology Lessons September 2025
We’ll break down the light-dependent reactions, looking at how light energy is converted into ATP and NADPH, with a focus on key diagrams and exam-style questions.
We’ll explore the Calvin cycle step by step, then apply it to real exam questions on limiting factors and graph interpretation.
We’ll go through glycolysis and the link reaction in detail, showing how glucose is broken down into useful intermediates and where students often lose marks.
A-Level Biology Lessons – October
We’ll tackle the Krebs cycle and oxidative phosphorylation, focusing on ATP yield, redox reactions, and common misconceptions.
We’ll study how energy is transferred through ecosystems, looking at efficiency, biomass pyramids, and the key calculations examiners love to test.
We’ll cover how nitrogen and phosphorus are recycled in ecosystems, using simple flow diagrams and exam-style application questions.
We’ll revisit the structure of neurones and step through how action potentials are generated and propagated, with emphasis on exam diagrams and tricky terminology.
A-Level Biology Lessons – November
We’ll explore how synapses transmit signals and how neuromuscular junctions control movement, focusing on inhibitors, drugs, and applied questions.
We’ll unpack how muscles contract using the sliding filament model, with detailed diagrams and practice on linking theory to exam questions.
We’ll study how blood glucose is controlled, the roles of insulin and glucagon, and how diabetes develops, with lots of data-handling practice.
We’ll examine how the kidney regulates water balance through osmoregulation, linking structure to function and testing common application-style questions.
We’ll practise solving inheritance problems step by step, making sure Punnett squares, ratios, and probability are second nature.
A-Level Biology Lessons – December
We’ll learn how to calculate allele frequencies using Hardy–Weinberg, with guided examples and plenty of past-paper style practice.
We’ll explore natural selection and how it leads to speciation, using clear examples and exam-focused application questions.
We’ll study how genes are switched on and off through transcription factors and epigenetic changes, focusing on data interpretation and evaluation questions.
MedicHut A-Level Tutors
We have over 150 medical and dental student tutors from universities across the UK. All of our tutors are meticulously selected and are provided with thorough training and content to offer their students personalised lessons. You can view a handful of our tutor profiles below.
Why Do I Need a Biology Tutor?
Many students find the jump to A-level Biology challenging: the sheer volume of content, the depth of understanding required, and the demand for strong exam technique make it one of the most content-heavy subjects. A tutor isn’t just there to help when you’re struggling, but can guide you through the course systematically, ensuring you keep on top of the material and build the skills needed for exam success.
With top universities placing significant weight on strong Biology grades for Medicine and Dentistry, achieving an A or A* can be crucial. Focused, exam-based tutoring will help you master key topics, develop confidence, and secure the grades you’re aiming for.

A-level Tuition – F.A.Q.
Do you offer A-level Biology tutoring for all exam boards?
Our weekend lessons cover major exam boards – AQA and OCR. Our tutors are subject experts who adapt teaching to the syllabus and exam style you’re working towards.
How can A-level tutoring help me improve my grades?
Tutoring provides structured support, targeted practice, and expert exam strategies. Our weekend lessons focus on tricky topics, past paper practice, and exam technique, so you gain both confidence and accuracy. Students often see steady grade improvements when combining lessons with independent study.
What is the structure of the weekend lessons?
Each lesson begins with a short 5–10 minute recap of the key topic content, followed by a focus on the hardest exam-style questions. Students attempt these under timed conditions before the tutor goes through the answers step by step, explaining exam strategies and memory techniques. The emphasis is on mastering challenging questions and exam technique, not just content recall.
Do I need to prepare before the lesson?
Yes. Students are expected to review the topic content in advance. Before each session, you’ll receive a list of what you should be familiar with and some revision notes to guide you. This allows us to spend lesson time tackling high-level exam questions instead of covering the basics
What kind of exam questions will we cover?
We focus on the most challenging questions taken from the past 10–15 years of exam papers, particularly longer 4–6 mark questions. These are carefully chosen to stretch your understanding and develop exam technique.
Will I get homework after each lesson?
Yes, tutors may assign follow-up practice to reinforce what you’ve learned. They’ll also give a preview of the next topic so you know what to prepare in advance.
Can I access the lessons afterwards?
Absolutely. All sessions are recorded, so you can re-watch them anytime for revision. This is especially useful if you miss a class or want to revisit a tricky topic.
Will slides or resources be shared?
We won’t distribute the slides, but you’re welcome to take photos during the lesson. The tutor will upload any extra resources they recommend to the shared lesson drive for students to access
