"Mr Bala is honestly the best chemistry tutor I could have asked for. He explains even the hardest topics in such a clear and simple way that everything finally makes sense. What really makes him stand out is how much he focuses on exam technique as he doesn’t just teach the content, he teaches you exactly how to answer questions to get the marks.
Since starting lessons with him my confidence in chemistry has improved massively and I now genuinely believe I can achieve a top grade. He is always patient, supportive and goes out of his way to help. I’m so grateful for his support and would 100% recommend him to anyone who wants to do well in chemistry."

Tutoring Experience
I have taught in a range of secondary schools in London. I have worked as a teacher for the past 11 years and have worked in various roles including classroom teacher, Head of Chemistry and my most recent role as a Lead practitioner of Science.I have worked with more able students to move them from a grade B to an A/A* and have also worked with under performing students to boost grades on one occasion from a U to an A grade.
I have experience in the teaching of the specification as well as exam paper support and walkthrough. I am a current examiner for a major exam board in the UK for A-level Chemistry.
