Studying A-Levels in Cairo

A-Levels are a rigorous, globally recognised qualification that prepares students for university in the UK and beyond. Students typically take three or four subjects in depth over two years, completing AS content in the first year and full A2 papers in the second.

In Cairo, A-Levels are part of the British system offered by international and language schools across the city, from long-established schools in Heliopolis, Maadi and Zamalek to newer campuses in New Cairo and Sheikh Zayed. Students usually complete IGCSEs or O Levels first, then add AS and A-Level subjects, and the whole set counts towards the certificate equivalency used for Egyptian university admission. Most schools follow Cambridge International or Pearson Edexcel International, with some on OxfordAQA International. Our tutoring supports students at these schools and those sitting as private candidates, with plans built around both the exam board and the subjects a student needs.

With tailored learning plans built around each school's syllabus and exam series, we help students across Cairo reach their full potential in the A-Level curriculum.

‍

Schools we have supported in Cairo

So far, we have helped students achieve A*/A grades in their chosen subjects from the following schools in Cairo:

  • Cairo English School
  • Malvern College Egypt
  • New Cairo British International School
  • El Alsson British International School
  • British Ramses School
  • Manchester International School
Who this page is for

British-system schools: Cairo has a large number of schools offering IGCSE and A-Level, from long-established schools in the city to newer campuses in New Cairo and Sheikh Zayed, most on Cambridge or Edexcel International.

Students building their equivalency: Students planning which IGCSE, AS and A-Level subjects to sit so they meet the eight-subject equivalency rule and the subject requirements for faculties such as medicine and engineering.

Families planning to study abroad: Families aiming at UK, European or North American universities who need grades and subject depth that stand up internationally.

Private candidates: Students entering exams independently through the British Council in Cairo, including homeschoolers, retakers and students adding a subject to complete their equivalency.

Why families in Cairo choose A-Levels

A-Levels are the standard entry route to UK universities and are recognised for admission worldwide. In Egypt, British-system certificates are converted by the equivalency committee into a score used for public university admission, and they are accepted by private and international universities including the American University in Cairo, the British University in Egypt and the German University in Cairo. That gives families one qualification that works for both local and overseas applications.

  • Direct UCAS route to UK universities
  • Counted towards Egyptian certificate equivalency for public university admission
  • Accepted by AUC, the British University in Egypt and the German University in Cairo
  • AS and A-Level subjects both count, giving flexibility in how students build their subject set

Why students in Cairo choose us

Cairo has a very large private tutoring market, but much of it runs through crowded group centres focused on drilling past papers at IGCSE level. Specialist A-Level tutors, particularly for the sciences and maths that medicine and engineering faculties require, are much harder to find, and few can also advise on how AS and A-Level choices affect a student's equivalency. Families often end up choosing between a crowded group class and going without specialist support altogether.

Over the last twenty years I have gained significant classroom and management experience at several State, Grammar and Independent Schools. I have been out of the classroom environment recently but continue to keep up to date with Education Policy and support students away from the school environment via home tutoring.

I am an experienced teacher with a passion towards my subject and have a great desire that all pupils across the ability range are inspired by Science; there is no greater job satisfaction for me than when that inspiration leads to students excelling in examinations or pursuing a career in medicine. As Head of Biology at Kingston Grammar School I managed a team of four experienced teachers- as well as being actively involved in the overall management of the Science department.

I was successful in improving both A-Level and GCSE results year on year. I was responsible for co-ordinating Community Service placements for students in the wider community. I also worked closely with Brunel University with their PGCE programme and was part of a team inspected by OFSTED and I was awarded as ‘outstanding’ in my mentoring work with PGCE students at Kingston Grammar.

Whilst my teaching specialism is Biology I have also taught Chemistry and Physics at key stage three, four and A Level. I have a broad knowledge of the science curriculum and how it fits in to schools academic policies and wider educational policies. I also have a good understanding of International Baccalaureate programs and Vocational courses. I have written schemes of work and working policies for a department as well as full risk assessments for practical work. I also have experience of intake of student new to a school be it a state school or an 11+ or Common Entrance at 13+. I have administered 11+ and 13+ examinations as well as being part of a team of interviewers assessing a student’s suitability for the school.

Teaching provides a unique opportunity to shape lives and influence young people towards a responsible future, hence, my passion for teaching. As one with a passion for Mathematics, Physics, Chemistry and Biology, I understand that many students face real challenges grasping the concepts of the subjects. Hence, teaching provides me the avenue to tackle this, while also making a contribution; giving back to the society and also challenging myself towards further growth and development. I have taught since my secondary school days; taking more than 800 students in total; at various levels (on a one-on-one basis, in groups and at mass teaching levels). I have also taught at various educational levels (secondary and tertiary) as well as to a diverse range of student ethnic backgrounds with a very high success rate in student comprehension evinced by their later performance. Having gained significant experience teaching this subject, I have a very broad understanding of what is expected of students writing the GCSEs and A-level exams. I have also prepared students for varying exams including the – 11+, 13+, 16+, and curricula - GCSE and A-levels (Edexcel, OCR, AQA), IB (SL and HL) and Scottish National with excellent results from students - most of my students achieving grades 8 and 9. My teaching success rate has been largely due to my deep and vast understanding of the subject matter, coupled with my calm, interesting and engaging manner of communication that makes even an average and uninterested student develop a desire for Maths and Science. I use diverse teaching-aids, web-resources etc. as necessary."

I hold a First Class honours degree in Chemical Engineering and a Masters degree in Advanced Chemical Engineering from the Imperial College of Science, Technology and Medicine. I am also a UK Qualified Teacher with more than 4000 hours teaching/tutoring experience over a period of 15+ years. This has provided me with diverse experience necessary for tutoring different students' backgrounds with evident successes in the exams. I am hoping to be of help and assistance to any student in need.

Sitting your A-Level exams in Cairo

Which exam boards students in Cairo follow, when the exam series run, and how private candidates register.

Which boards and exam sessions

British-system schools in Cairo mostly follow Cambridge International and Pearson Edexcel International, with some on OxfordAQA International. The international boards run more than one series a year, so students can sit, or resit, without waiting a full year, which matters when an equivalency deadline is approaching. Your exact papers and dates depend on the board your school has chosen.

‍

  1. Cambridge International: Two exam series each year: May/June (results in August) and October/November (results in January).
  2. Edexcel and OxfordAQA International: Edexcel International runs January, May/June and October/November series, and OxfordAQA International runs January and May/June series. Both are modular, so students can spread units across sittings.

Exam centres and private candidate registration

In Cairo, as across Egypt, the British Council administers school exams on behalf of Cambridge, Pearson Edexcel and OxfordAQA, and most students sit through their own school. Those studying independently, resitting after leaving school, or adding a subject to complete their equivalency can register as private candidates through the British Council. Registration deadlines fall several months before each series, and exam fees are paid to the centre, not to us.

‍

  1. Through your school: Students at a British-system school are entered by the school. Nothing to arrange.
  2. As a private candidate: Register through the British Council in Egypt, which handles private entries for all three international boards. Keep every statement of results, as you will need them for your equivalency file.
  3. Registration deadlines: Entry deadlines close several months ahead of each series. Plan early, especially for resits or if you are completing subjects ahead of university applications.

Where else we teach

We tutor A-Level students in over 50 countries. Every page covers the boards students follow locally and where they sit their exams.

FAQs

We have answers to your most frequently asked questions. Anything not answered here, please reach out to our team.

Do you also offer GCSE and IGCSE tutoring in Cairo?

Yes. In Cairo, British-system students almost always take IGCSE, and those grades count towards the equivalency, so IGCSE tutoring is by far the more common request. We also offer GCSE tutoring for families following UK specifications. Both start from $50 USD (£38) per hour, with tutors matched to your board from the first lesson. Professional tutors (qualified teachers and examiners) cost from $75 USD (£56) per hour.

How much does A-Level tutoring cost in Cairo?

A-Level and AS tutoring starts at $60 USD (£45) per hour with an academic tutor. We charge in US dollars at one worldwide rate, so Cairo families see the same prices as anyone else. Longer packages are discounted by 5% for 10 to 20 hours, 10% for 21 to 30, 12.5% for 31 to 50 and 15% for 51 hours or more. Pay as you go is invoiced after each lesson, and there are no lock-in contracts. Professional tutors (qualified teachers and examiners) cost from $85 USD (£64) per hour. Details on our pricing page.

Late cancellations and no-shows are charged at half the lesson fee. That applies if you cancel less than one hour before the start time, or don't turn up. You can still change a session time whenever you need to, as long as you give your tutor notice.

Can tutors teach in Cairo's time zone?

Yes. Cairo runs on Egypt's standard time of UTC+2. Your availability and time zone are recorded when you apply, and you are only matched with a tutor who can teach at times that suit you, such as after school or at weekends, so lessons fit around your existing timetable. Start your application today.

Can I sit A-Levels as a private candidate in Cairo?

Yes. In Cairo, as across Egypt, the British Council administers Cambridge, Pearson Edexcel and OxfordAQA exams and handles private entries for all three, so independent students, resitters and those completing their equivalency register there. Keep every statement of results for your equivalency file. Deadlines close several months before each series, and exam fees go to the centre. See A-Level resits and retakes.

When do students in Cairo sit their A-Level exams?

Cambridge International runs May/June and October/November series, with results in August and January. Edexcel International offers January, May/June and October/November, and OxfordAQA International runs January and May/June; both are modular, so units can be spread across sittings. Multiple series help when an equivalency deadline is approaching. Confirm entry deadlines with your school or centre. See our OxfordAQA page.

Which exam boards do A-Level students in Cairo follow?

Most British-system schools in Cairo follow Cambridge International or Pearson Edexcel International, with some on OxfordAQA International. Your tutor will be matched to your board, which matters when you are planning IGCSE, AS and A-Level subjects to meet the eight-subject equivalency rule and faculty requirements.

Is A-Level tutoring in Cairo online or in person?

All tutoring is online, one to one in our own virtual classroom. Cairo has a very large tutoring market, but much of it runs through crowded group centres drilling IGCSE past papers. Specialist A-Level tutors, especially for the sciences and maths that medicine and engineering faculties require, are much harder to find. Online, students get that specialist one to one. Parents can join any lesson without notice. See how it works.

Do you offer A-Level tutoring in Cairo?

Yes. We offer one-to-one online A-Level tutoring for students in Cairo, matched to subject, exam board and target grade. Students come from British-system schools across the city, New Cairo and Sheikh Zayed, from families planning to study abroad, and from those building their Egyptian equivalency, as well as private candidates. Apply here and a Learning Advisor will review your application the same day.
