Ms Himali Karunathialke

Biology & Chemistry Tutor – GCSE & A-Level Specialist

Are you or your child finding science a challenge, preparing for GCSEs or A-Levels, or looking to build confidence in Biology or Chemistry? I can help.

I’m a qualified teacher with over 15 years of experience teaching and tutoring science across KS3, GCSE, and A-Level. Over the years, I’ve supported hundreds of students working with all the main exam boards (AQA, Edexcel, OCR). Some have been aiming for top grades, others have needed to rebuild their confidence from the ground up – and many have gone on to achieve results they never thought possible.

What sets me apart is that I’m not just someone who knows the subject – I’m trained to teach it. That means I can spot quickly when something isn’t making sense and explain it in different ways until it clicks. I’ve seen what works with different types of learners, and I adapt lessons so they’re engaging and effective, whether you’re a visual learner who needs diagrams, someone who benefits from step-by-step practice, or a student who thrives on real-world examples.

My tutoring is always focused on building understanding and exam confidence. I break down complex topics into clear, manageable steps and show students how to tackle questions in the way examiners are looking for. We work on exam technique, timed practice, and smart revision strategies so that when exam day comes, students feel ready, not overwhelmed.

Above all, I aim to make science less intimidating and more enjoyable. With patience, encouragement, and the right strategies, I’ve seen students not only improve their grades but also discover that they can actually enjoy Biology and Chemistry.
