University places increasingly demand specific A-Levels grades, and predicted grades determine which offers students receive. In Lewes, tutors we partner with help sixth form students raise both their attainment and their predictions by deepening subject understanding, improving exam skills, and building the kind of fluency that impresses examiners.
University Preparation
Many Lewes students are aiming for competitive university courses. Tutors we partner with can help with more than just grades — they advise on personal statements, provide practice for admissions tests, and help students prepare for interviews where required. Strong A-Levels grades are the foundation, but standing out in a competitive application requires preparation that goes beyond the syllabus.
Predicted Grades
Predicted grades often determine which university offers a student receives — and they're typically set months before the actual exams. For Lewes students whose predictions don't match their ambitions, focused tutoring can shift both performance and teacher assessment upward. We work with students on mock exam preparation, coursework quality, and the classroom participation that informs teacher predictions.
Subject Support
We offer tutoring across Maths, Further Maths, Physics, Chemistry, Biology, English Literature, History, Economics, and more. Each tutor is a specialist in their subject — not a generalist trying to cover everything. This means they understand the specific challenges of their subject at this level: the proof questions in maths, the synoptic essays in biology, the source analysis in history. For Lewes students, having a tutor who has marked exam papers or taught the subject at sixth form level makes a tangible difference.

Why Individual Tutoring Works
In a classroom of 30, a teacher cannot pause to check whether each pupil truly understands. A tutor working individually with a learner in Lewes can. Every question is answered, every misconception corrected on the spot, and the pace adapts to the pupil — not the timetable. Families across East Sussex consistently find that regular, focused one-to-one teaching produces faster and more durable progress than group revision classes or self-study alone.
A Note for Parents
Tutoring works best when there is clear communication between the tutor, the learner, and the family. In Lewes, we encourage parents to share what they observe at home — frustration with homework, avoidance of certain topics, comments about lessons. This context helps the tutor target the right areas. We also keep families informed of what is covered each week, so there is never any guesswork about whether things are on track.
What to Expect
Sessions are typically weekly, lasting 60-90 minutes. The tutor focuses on whatever the student needs most — that might be working through a difficult topic, reviewing past paper answers, refining essay technique, or preparing for a specific exam. For Lewes students in Year 13 or S6, we can also arrange intensive revision blocks in the weeks before exams.
