As a parent, you always want the best for your child. You see other kids getting into top universities, studying subjects like Medicine, Dentistry, Biomedical & Veterinary Sciences, and you want the same opportunities for your child’s future.
You’re worried about the knowledge gaps your child has. Perhaps at the start of year 12 in their first initial parents evening, you were informed that they didn’t get the core topics.
As the year went by the course become even more challenging for them. They come home from school assessments feeling disheartened about their progress, which greatly affects their confidence.
Do you hear your child telling you that the jump from GCSE to A-Level Biology is huge?
Perhaps your child claims they understand the topic, but can’t seem to translate that to exam questions, where they actually need to apply their knowledge?
Your child may feel like they’re working very hard, writing a lot of notes, but what they’ll find is that they can’t actually visualise what’s going on.
This is especially true for cellular topics where you can’t see it! It can make your son/daughter feel disillusioned, overwhelmed, and hinder them from trying to understand it, as it can be extremely complex and overwhelming.
The pressure for students to perform is ridiculous. Most university places require A*A*A. Everything is getting very competitive. So, it’s imperative as a parent to ensure that your child has the best head start.
Getting good grades in A-Level Biology opens up many opportunities for the future.
So, making necessary changes now is critical to ensure they are fully prepared for their A-Level exams. It could enable them to become a doctor, a dentist, a vet, or work in the sciences. The opportunity is huge.
That’s where I come in to help. My name is Clare Foreman, and I’ve been teaching since 2011, from comprehensive schools to grammar schools, and tutoring since 2012.
I have also been working as a Biology examiner for the past five years, so Biology is like second nature to me. It’s in my DNA!
My approach involves truly understanding the material and guiding students through questions of varying difficulty, from easy to challenging exam questions. With cumulative & quiz-based learning, I ensure long-term memory retention and a thorough understanding with a heavy exam focus. This way you enjoy the process and be able to tackle any question throw at you.
I teach students in a way that impresses examiners, ensuring they secure every possible mark. Having seen what gets full marks and what doesn’t for different exam boards, this approach makes them 100 times more confident in Biology and provides them with the best support throughout their journey.

Yes absolutely. Students are always using technology. So let's use them to help them with their studies rather than distract them.
Imagine two athletes preparing for a major competition.
Athlete A only practices once or twice a week, with no record of their training progress and no clear plan to enhance their skills.
On the other hand, Athlete B practices 3-5 times a week, keeps track of their training sessions and improvements, and follows a well-structured training program designed to target their weaknesses and improve their performance.
It's evident that Athlete B is likely to perform better in the competition.
Similarly, in our tutoring service, we offer a winning combination of small group and 1:1 support. This ensures that students have a clear plan to follow, like Athlete B's well-structured training program, and they can receive individual help during the week to address any weak areas in their understanding, just like Athlete B's targeted practice sessions. This approach sets them up for success and guarantees better performance in their academic journey.
We would need to evaluate your child's situation to see if we can help before making an offer, as our programs are accessed via invitation-only. This is to ensure that our process aligns with your needs and for us to be confident that we can actually help you. Prescription without diagnosis is malpractice.
My expertise and experience which has led to the creation of my 4-step Bio-Brilliance process. When you pick a time to speak with me you'll be able to learn about this process is even more detail. Click the button above to learn more.
I have been teaching and tutoring for well over 10 years and have been an examiner for A-Level Biology for the last 5 years. I'm extremely confident in what I do, and I'd be be happy to see if I can help your child with their A-Level Biology.
Not at present, but we may do in the future.

There are many outstanding teachers in schools – but when classes are overcrowded, even the best can’t give your child the individual attention they truly need.
Let’s be honest: not every student in that classroom shares the same drive to succeed. A distracted environment can hold your child back, leaving them frustrated and disengaged.
And what if they don’t click with their teacher? A strained relationship can turn Biology – a subject full of fascination – into a chore. Worse still, rushed lessons often skip the deep explanations your child craves to master tricky concepts.
Then there’s the homework trap: the toughest, most exam-critical questions are sent home – precisely when your child has no expert on hand to guide them. No wonder confidence crumbles.
But here’s the good news. With the right support, your child can leap ahead – by 2 or even 3 grades.
As a grammar school teacher, examiner for 5 years, and 12-year A-Level specialist, I know exactly what the examiners demand. Together, we’ll create a no-nonsense plan tailored to your child’s gaps – turning confusion into top-tier marks.
A Drain on Time and Energy
Between travel, traffic, and rising fuel costs, in-person tutoring isn’t just expensive – it’s exhausting. The stress of rushing to a session or waiting for a tutor to arrive could be time better spent helping your child gain confidence in Biology. Every moment wasted on logistics is a moment lost from unlocking their full potential.
Hidden Costs that Add Up
On top of already high tutoring fees, you often have to cover travel expenses. That extra cost doesn’t go towards improving your child’s understanding – it’s simply money out of your pocket for the tutor’s convenience, not your child’s progress.
The Homework Helper with a Lack of Direction
Many tutors take a passive approach, asking, “What do you want to do today?” – a question that puts the pressure back on the student. Without a structured plan, learning becomes disorganised, leaving gaps in knowledge and creating frustration. Your child deserves more than just a homework assistant; they need a clear path forward, a solid routine, and expert guidance that builds their confidence and ability.
No Access to Support Between Sessions
What happens when your child gets stuck on a tricky Biology concept outside of tutoring hours? With in-person tuition, they have to wait until the next session, potentially falling behind. Without recorded lessons or an accessible learning platform, progress can feel slow and disjointed.
Tutors Who Aren’t Fully Invested
Many in-person tutors treat tutoring as a side job rather than a real commitment. If the person teaching your child isn’t 100% dedicated to their success, how can they truly help them thrive?
Slower, Less Effective Learning
A single weekly session with a tutor often isn’t enough. Learning Biology requires reinforcement, revision, and consistent practice. In-person tutoring can be slow and fragmented, making it harder for your child to retain information and gain the confidence they need.
Your child deserves more than outdated, inefficient tutoring. Clare’s structured online programme ensures they have everything they need to succeed. No more wasted time. No more uncertainty. Just the right support, at the right time, to help your child achieve their best.
While online tutoring removes some of the inconveniences of in-person sessions, many of the same issues remain:
No Recorded Lessons for Review
Once the session ends, it’s gone. Without recorded lessons, your child has no way to revisit explanations when they need extra clarity, making revision more difficult.
Lack of Structure
Just like achieving a six-pack requires a structured training and nutrition plan, effective learning needs a well-organised roadmap. Many online tutors take a scattered approach, focusing only on immediate problems rather than building long-term understanding.
No Learning Portal or Additional Resources
Without a central place to access extra materials, progress can feel disjointed. Once the lesson is over, students are left with nothing to reinforce their learning.
Slow Progress & Limited Content Coverage
With only an hour per session, most tutors cover just a handful of questions, meaning students often struggle to keep up rather than getting ahead.
Lack of Commitment
For some tutors, online tutoring is just a side hustle. But for your child to excel, they need someone fully dedicated to their success—not just someone filling gaps in their schedule.
A Basic, Textbook-Focused Approach
Many tutors simply follow the textbook, avoiding the difficult exam-style questions that truly test understanding. This ‘lazy’ approach leaves students unprepared for the real challenges they’ll face in exams.
Not All Tutors Are Experts
Just because someone offers online tuition doesn’t mean they’re qualified. Choosing the wrong tutor is like trusting an inexperienced medical student over a highly trained heart surgeon – you wouldn’t take that risk with your health, so why take it with your education?
No Support Outside of Sessions
If your child gets stuck between lessons, many tutors offer no way to get help without booking (and paying for) another session. This can quickly become expensive and frustrating.
I created Biology By Clare to solve these problems and provide students with everything they need to succeed in A-Level Biology—not just a weekly lesson, but a complete learning experience.
✅ Live Lessons with Full Recordings – We don’t just teach and leave. Every session is recorded so students can revisit explanations and revise at their own pace.
✅ A Clear, Structured Programme – Our approach takes students from foundational concepts to mastering the toughest exam questions, ensuring they build knowledge systematically.
✅ Active, Engaging Learning – Lessons are interactive, encouraging students to think critically, participate, and actively strengthen their memory and understanding.
✅ Exam-Focused Support – Specialised exam prep classes help students review content, refine their exam technique, and feel confident in tackling even the hardest questions.
✅ Unlimited Help Outside of Lessons – Our weekly drop-in help sessions allow students to ask questions on any A-Level Biology topic, while our community forum ensures no query goes unanswered – ever.
✅ Smart Revision Tools – Our workbooks are designed as quizzes to reinforce understanding and improve long-term retention, making revision far more effective.
✅ Balance & Time Management – We guide students in managing their workload effectively, helping them juggle multiple subjects while still having time for themselves.
And that’s just the beginning. Biology By Clare is more than tutoring – it’s a support system designed to help students thrive, feel confident, and achieve their full potential.
Which approach will truly help your child build a deep, lasting understanding of A-Level Biology?
❌ Approach 1: Watching an outdated, passive YouTube video that barely scratches the surface of the topic and leaves them struggling with real exam questions.
✅ Approach 2: Engaging in live, interactive sessions where they actively participate, think critically, ask questions, and truly understand how to tackle difficult exam problems with confidence.
The choice is obvious.
While YouTube has its place, it lacks the interactive teaching that’s essential for real understanding. A student might watch a video, follow along with a few exam question examples, and feel like they “get it” – but when faced with a new, unfamiliar question, they freeze.
That’s because memorising past exam questions isn’t the same as understanding the subject. The hardest part of an exam is figuring out what the question is actually asking – and that’s something YouTube simply doesn’t teach.
Students often say, “I understand the topic, I just struggle with exam questions.” But the truth is, if they can’t apply their knowledge in an exam, they don’t fully understand the topic at all.
Live, Real-Time Feedback – We correct misconceptions instantly, ensuring students grasp the “why” behind each answer, rather than just memorising information.
Active Learning Through Discussion – Our sessions aren’t passive. Students engage in problem-solving, working through questions step by step so they know exactly what’s expected of them.
Live Diagram Setups – Many biological concepts are abstract – you can’t see them. We use interactive diagrams, visual breakdowns, and real-time explanations to make even the trickiest topics clear.
Exam Strategy Training – We don’t just teach Biology; we teach students how to think like an examiner, so they never feel lost when they sit down for the real thing.
YouTube is a tool, but it’s not a teacher. If your child wants to stop second-guessing themselves and start feeling truly confident in Biology, they need a structured, interactive approach that actually works.
That’s exactly what Biology By Clare provides.
Many online academies promise comprehensive learning, but the reality often falls short. They rely on pre-recorded lessons, generic content, and a mass-market approach that fails to address individual student needs.
Here’s why this approach leaves students frustrated, disengaged, and struggling to improve:
❌ No Personalised Support – Online academies offer a “watch and learn” approach, but what happens when your child doesn’t understand something? There’s no tutor ready to jump in, clarify misunderstandings, or provide instant feedback.
❌ Pre-Recorded = No Real Engagement – Watching endless pre-recorded videos might feel productive, but without real interaction, live questioning, and active discussion, the knowledge doesn’t truly sink in.
❌ Lack of Exam Strategy Training – Many academies focus on covering the syllabus but fail to teach students how to tackle exam questions effectively. Knowing Biology is one thing – applying it under exam conditions is another.
❌ No Accountability, No Motivation – Without a real teacher to challenge and encourage them, students often lose momentum, fall behind, and struggle to stay on track.
At Biology By Clare, we don’t just teach Biology – we teach your child how to succeed.
Live, Interactive Lessons – Unlike pre-recorded courses, our real-time sessions keep students engaged and allow them to ask questions the moment they feel stuck.
A Clear, Structured Learning Path – No more aimless revision. Our step-by-step curriculum guides students from core concepts to mastering exam technique, ensuring nothing gets left behind.
Real Teacher, Real Support – Clare isn’t just a voice on a video. She’s a dedicated tutor, available for drop-in help sessions, community forum discussions, and ongoing feedback, ensuring students feel supported every step of the way.
Active Learning for Long-Term Retention – Our approach doesn’t rely on passive watching. We use quizzes, interactive workbooks, and exam-style questioning to ensure students remember and apply what they learn.
Biology isn’t just about memorising facts – it’s about understanding, applying, and feeling confident in every exam question. That’s why Biology By Clare is designed to be engaging, structured, and genuinely supportive – because every student deserves the best chance at success.
