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 Riyadh, A-Levels are taught at British and international schools serving both expatriate and Saudi families, and the city has one of the largest concentrations of British schools in the Kingdom. Most schools follow Cambridge International or Pearson Edexcel International, with some on OxfordAQA International, and Saudi students at these schools also take the Arabic, Islamic and national studies the Ministry of Education requires. Our tutoring supports students at these schools, as well as those studying independently, to work through the demands of their specific exam board.
With tailored learning plans built around each school's syllabus and exam series, we help students across Riyadh reach their full potential in the A-Level curriculum.
Schools we have supported in Riyadh
So far, we have helped students achieve A*/A grades in their chosen subjects from the following schools in Riyadh:
- British International School Riyadh
British-curriculum schools: Riyadh has one of the largest concentrations of British schools in the Kingdom. Most teach Cambridge or Edexcel International, and several now run BTEC alongside A-Levels in the sixth form.
International schools: Some schools offer the IB Diploma alongside or instead of A-Levels, and community schools serving South Asian families teach Cambridge A-Levels over Grades 11 and 12. Families choosing between routes are usually weighing subject depth against breadth.
Saudi families: Saudi students at private international schools who want to keep both Saudi and overseas university options open, including those applying for government scholarships to study abroad.
Private candidates: Students entering exams independently through the British Council in Riyadh, including retakers, homeschoolers and students adding a subject their school doesn't offer.
A-Levels are the standard entry route to UK universities and are recognised for admission, and sometimes credit, in the US, Canada, Australia and across the Gulf. In Saudi Arabia, British-system graduates can apply to Saudi universities once their certificate has been through the Ministry of Education equivalency process, usually alongside the national aptitude tests, which makes A-Levels a flexible choice for families who haven't decided where their child will study.
- Direct UCAS route to UK universities
- Accepted by Saudi universities through the Ministry of Education equivalency process
- Recognised for US admissions and across the GCC
- Three or four subjects in depth rather than a broad diploma
Why students in Riyadh choose us
Riyadh's tutoring market is built largely around the national curriculum and preparation for the Qudurat and Tahsili tests. Subject-specialist A-Level tutors are harder to find, and those who are available are often full-time school teachers with little spare capacity. Families often end up choosing between a generalist tutor who doesn't know the Cambridge or Edexcel papers and going without specialist support altogether.

I am Mr. Majid S, Chemistry Teacher at the German International School Beirut, with 30 years of experience teaching Chemistry at the secondary level (Grades 10, 11 and 12). I have a great passion for Chemistry and for helping students develop strong scientific understanding, problem-solving skills, and confidence.
I teach and support students preparing for GCSE, IGCSE and A-Level Chemistry, with particular emphasis on developing the knowledge, analytical skills, mathematical techniques, and examination strategies required for success. I also have two years of direct experience teaching A-Level students.
My extensive experience teaching international Chemistry curricula has given me a strong understanding of the level and style of questions students encounter in external examinations. A-Level and IB Chemistry share considerable common ground in both content and problem-solving skills, and throughout my teaching I regularly use carefully selected questions and problems from previous A-Level examinations because of their relevance, quality, and similarity to the skills required in other rigorous international Chemistry programmes.
This experience allows me to help A-Level students not only understand Chemistry but also learn how to approach examination questions effectively. I can support students with challenging calculations, structured questions, data analysis, practical and experimental concepts, interpretation of graphs and results, organic reaction pathways, and the application of chemical principles to unfamiliar situations.
I am also passionate about computer programming and the use of technology in education, and I integrate technology and interactive resources into my teaching whenever they can make difficult concepts clearer and learning more engaging.
My approach is based on identifying each student's difficulties, strengthening any weak foundations, and then progressively developing the skills needed to tackle more demanding examination questions with confidence. Past-paper practice is an important part of this process, helping students become familiar with question styles, command words, time management, and the level of precision expected in their answers.
Whether a student needs help understanding a particular topic, strengthening calculation and problem-solving skills, revising the full course, or preparing intensively for upcoming GCSE, IGCSE or A-Level examinations, I am ready to provide structured and personalised support.
I strongly believe that Chemistry can be both understandable and enjoyable. When concepts are taught clearly and students are shown how ideas connect, their confidence increases, their examination performance improves, and they begin to appreciate Chemistry as a fascinating scientific discipline.
I look forward to helping GCSE, IGCSE and A-Level Chemistry students develop their knowledge, improve their examination technique, and work towards achieving their full potential through engaging and interactive learning sessions.

Mahesh B is an experienced A Level Physics educator and International Examiner with over a decade of full-time teaching experience. He has taught students from different countries and academic backgrounds, helping them develop a strong understanding of Physics while preparing them systematically for their examinations.
Mahesh teaches Cambridge International (CAIE) A Level Physics and Pearson Edexcel International A Level Physics. His experience with both examination boards allows him to understand the differences in syllabus structure, question styles, assessment requirements and examination expectations. He adapts his lessons according to the student's specific specification rather than using the same approach for every exam board.
Alongside teaching, Mahesh works as a Cambridge International A Level Physics Examiner and Pearson Edexcel A Level Physics Examiner. His examining experience gives him first-hand exposure to mark schemes, assessment criteria and student responses. Having assessed examination answers, he has developed a clear understanding of the areas where students commonly lose marks and the level of explanation, working and reasoning expected in different types of questions.
He brings this examiner experience directly into his tutoring. Students learn not only how to arrive at the correct answer but also how to approach an examination question, show their working clearly, explain their reasoning, use appropriate units and present answers in a way that addresses the requirements of the question.
His teaching approach is centred on understanding Physics rather than memorising formulas. He breaks down difficult concepts into simpler ideas and then helps students apply those concepts through numerical problems, diagrams, real-world examples and exam-style questions. Particular attention is given to topics that students find challenging and to developing the mathematical and analytical skills required for A Level Physics.
A significant part of his teaching involves past-paper practice and examination preparation. Rather than simply working through large numbers of questions, Mahesh encourages students to understand why a particular approach works, identify patterns in questions, recognise common errors and learn from their mistakes. This helps students become more confident when they encounter unfamiliar problems in examinations.
Mahesh also provides individualised one-to-one online tutoring to students worldwide. He has worked with students from diverse educational backgrounds and adapts the pace, depth and teaching style according to each student's needs. Whether a student is struggling with fundamental concepts, looking to improve their examination technique or preparing for high grades, lessons are structured around their individual areas of difficulty.
In addition to teaching, Mahesh has worked as a Physics content developer with Revision Village and Pamoja, contributing to the development of educational and learning resources. This experience has strengthened his ability to explain Physics clearly and create structured, student-friendly learning material.
His online lessons are interactive and highly visual, making use of digital writing, simulations, animations, illustrations and real-world applications wherever they help students understand a concept more effectively. He aims to create an environment where students can ask questions freely, work through problems step by step and develop confidence in their own ability to solve Physics problems.
With his combination of 10+ years of teaching experience, CAIE and Pearson Edexcel examining experience, international tutoring experience and educational content-development work, Mahesh brings both subject expertise and an examiner's perspective to A Level Physics tutoring.
His ultimate aim is to help students understand Physics deeply, approach challenging problems with confidence and develop the examination skills needed to demonstrate their knowledge effectively.

Which boards and exam sessions
British-curriculum schools in Riyadh mostly follow Cambridge International and Pearson Edexcel International, with some on OxfordAQA International and a smaller number on UK-domestic boards. Because the international boards run more than one series a year, students here can sit, or resit, without waiting a full year for one UK sitting. Your exact papers and dates depend on the board your school has chosen.
- Cambridge International (most schools): Two exam series each year: May/June (results in August) and October/November (results in January).
- 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
Most students in Riyadh sit through their own school. Those studying independently, resitting after leaving school, or taking a subject their school doesn't offer can register as private candidates. The British Council runs Cambridge International, Pearson Edexcel and OxfordAQA exams for private candidates in Riyadh, as well as Jeddah and Al Khobar, and some Pearson-approved schools also take external entries. Registration deadlines fall several months before each series, and exam fees are paid to the centre, not to us.
- Through your school: Students at a British-curriculum school are entered automatically by the school. Nothing to arrange.
- As a private candidate at a local centre: Register online through the British Council's School Registration System. Exam venue details are sent with your statement of entry shortly before the series. Which centres accept which boards and subjects varies, so confirm locally before you register.
- Registration deadlines: Entry deadlines close several months ahead of each series and shift slightly each year. Plan early, especially for resits.

FAQs
We have answers to your most frequently asked questions. Anything not answered here, please reach out to our team.
Yes. With most British schools in Riyadh teaching Cambridge or Edexcel International, IGCSE is the more common route before A-Level, and our online IGCSE tutoring covers it. Students at the smaller number of schools on UK boards can use our online GCSE tutoring. Both start at $50 USD (£38) per hour, with tutors matched to the exact board. Professional tutors (qualified teachers and examiners) cost from $75 USD (£56) per hour.
We charge the same USD rates in Riyadh as everywhere else. A-Level and AS lessons with an academic tutor start from $60 USD (£45) per hour. Larger packages save more: 5% for 10 to 20 hours, 10% for 21 to 30, 12.5% for 31 to 50 and 15% for 51 hours plus. Pay as you go is billed after each lesson, and nothing locks you in. Professional tutors (qualified teachers and examiners) cost from $85 USD (£64) per hour. View pricing.
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.
Yes. Riyadh is on Arabia Standard Time, UTC+3. Your availability and time zone are captured when you apply, and we only pair you with a tutor able to teach at times that suit you, such as after the school day or at weekends, so tutoring fits around school rather than competing with it.
Yes. The British Council runs Cambridge International, Pearson Edexcel and OxfordAQA exams for private candidates in Riyadh, with online registration through its School Registration System, and some Pearson-approved schools also accept external entries. Which centres offer which boards and subjects varies, so check before you register. Exam fees go to the centre, not to us. Our resit and retake tutoring supports independent candidates.
Cambridge International, the most common board in Riyadh, has two series a year: May/June (results in August) and October/November (results in January). Edexcel International runs January, May/June and October/November series, and OxfordAQA International runs January and May/June. Both are modular, so units can be spread across sittings. Deadlines shift slightly each year, so confirm with your school or the British Council. Planning a retake? See resits and retakes.
Most British-curriculum schools in Riyadh follow Cambridge International or Pearson Edexcel International. Some use OxfordAQA International, and a smaller number follow UK-domestic boards. Tell us your board when you apply, and we will match you with a tutor who teaches that exact specification and knows how its papers are marked.
All tutoring is online, in our own virtual classroom. Riyadh's tutoring market is built mainly around the national curriculum and the Qudurat and Tahsili tests, so A-Level specialists are scarce and often full-time teachers with little spare time. Online, families no longer have to choose between a generalist who doesn't know the Cambridge or Edexcel papers and no support at all. Parents can join any lesson. See how it works.
Yes. We provide one-to-one online A-Level tutoring to students in Riyadh, with each tutor matched to the student's subject, exam board and target grade. Our students here include those at the city's many British-curriculum schools, Saudi students keeping both Saudi and overseas university options open, including scholarship applicants, community school students on Cambridge A-Levels, and private candidates.
