exam boards and specifications: at GCSE, AQA Science, Edexcel IGCSE Science, OCR 21st Century Science, OCR Gateway Science and WJEC Science (all including higher tier and separate biology, chemistry and physics content); at A-Level, AQA Physics, Edexcel Physics, OCR Physics A, OCR Physics B and WJEC Physics. He has also taught the physics International Baccalaureate diploma and BTEC Level 2 and Level 3 Applied Science. He is an examiner for the AQA, OCR and Edexcel examination boards. He has supported students preparing for physics entry examinations for universities.

H. Arrowsmith Tuition

In 2016, Huw set up his own tuition company and currently operate this full-time. Tuition has an advantage over teaching in that it enables the teacher to better help students on an individual basis. This level of help is often difficult to achieve in a classroom environment, which can be very frustrating for both the teacher and student. Tuition also allows more control over the teacher's working hours, which in turn gives greater flexibility in planning quality lessons for students.
