A-Level Business Tutors in London from Business Tutor are all fully qualified teachers, giving students across the capital one-to-one online lessons built around their school, their exam board and the grade they’re aiming for.
Business Tutoring Across London, Borough by Borough
We teach students in all 32 London boroughs and the City of London. Because lessons are live online, it makes no difference whether you live in Havering or Hillingdon.
London has 32 boroughs plus the City, and a wide mix of post-16 options: school sixth forms, specialist sixth form colleges, further education colleges and a large independent sector. Most boroughs are fully comprehensive, but 19 grammar schools remain across Barnet, Bexley, Bromley, Enfield, Kingston upon Thames, Redbridge and Sutton. Most sixth forms and colleges take applications directly.
That creates three situations we see often:
Moving at 16 often means a new exam boardMany London students switch to a sixth form college or another school’s sixth form, and a student who took Edexcel GCSE may start an AQA A-level, with different papers and command words.
Many start A-level Business from scratchBusiness is usually an option subject at GCSE, so plenty of Year 12s meet it for the first time.
Long days leave little time to travelWith a commute to sixth form on top of lessons, an online tutor saves an extra journey across London.
Whatever the board, every A-level Business paper is marked against the same four assessment objectives. Your tutor marks each answer against all four and targets the one holding the grade back.
Examiners reward students who apply theory to real businesses. London is full of them, from start-ups that became household names to the country’s biggest infrastructure decisions, and we use them in lessons.
Takeovers & share prices
Deliveroo’s sale to DoorDash
Founded in London in 2013, Deliveroo floated on the London Stock Exchange in 2021 at 390p a share. In 2025 US rival DoorDash bought it for 180p a share, about £2.9 billion, a 29% premium on the 140p price just before the approach. The deal completed in September 2025.

Investment & stakeholders
Heathrow’s third runway
In August 2025 Heathrow submitted a £49 billion, privately financed plan to expand, including a £21 billion third runway, to raise capacity from about 84 million to 150 million passengers a year. Ministers backed the plan in November 2025, while airlines warned higher airport charges could mean higher fares.

FAQs
Questions London Parents Ask
Do you offer A-Level Business tutoring anywhere in London?
Yes. All our lessons are one-to-one and online, via Google Meet, so we teach students in every London borough, from Havering to Hillingdon. Lessons run from a shared Google Doc, so nothing is lost compared with sitting side by side.
Which exam boards do London schools use for Business?
It varies by school. London schools and colleges use AQA, Pearson Edexcel and OCR for GCSE and A-level, and many sixth forms and colleges offer Pearson BTEC Business. We teach all of them. Tell us the board before the first lesson and we’ll plan around that specification.
My child is moving to a new sixth form or college. Will the exam board change?
It might. Schools choose their own boards, so a student who took one board at GCSE can start A-level on another. We’ll check the new specification with you and focus early lessons on the differences in papers, question types and command words.
Can you help with BTEC Business?
Yes. We support BTEC Level 2 and Level 3 Business students, helping them understand the grading criteria and prepare for externally assessed units. We guide the work but never write assignments for them.
Do you teach International Baccalaureate (IB) Business?
No. We support GCSE, A-level and BTEC Business with AQA, Edexcel and OCR, but we don’t currently support IB Business Management.
How many lessons will my son or daughter need?
Most students have one 60-minute lesson a week. Early in Year 12, once a fortnight can work; after February half-term in Year 13, two or three a week is common for the final push.
