Eight subjects.
Eight specialist teams.
Each subject is led by a tutor who only teaches their core specialism — nobody is a generalist. Discover the subjects your child needs help with and see how we approach each one.
Choosing A Level subjects is one of the most important decisions on your child's study-abroad journey. Each subject affects more than the grade — it determines whether your child meets the entry requirements for the field they want — and the wrong combo can quietly close university doors without parents realising.
At Times Edu, we don't just teach individual subjects — we advise on subject selection strategy matched to your child's target degree, university, and real ability. Below is the full list of 8 subjects we teach, with the details parents and students need to make a confident, informed decision.
A Level Mathematics 9709
The foundation for every STEM and economics pathway. Pure Mathematics, Mechanics & Statistics — taught to the Cambridge mark scheme, with the highest A*/A rate of all our subjects.
Physics
From Mechanics to Nuclear Physics. Experimental thinking paired with exam-paper technique — including Paper 5 Planning & Analysis, which many students skip.
Explore PhysicsChemistry
The three pillars Organic, Inorganic, and Physical — woven into a single thinking system. Particularly strong in Organic Chemistry and Paper 5.
Explore ChemistryBiology
From Cell Biology to Genetics & Ecology. A "precision-first" approach — building exact scientific vocabulary, training diagrams, and cross-topic analysis.
Explore BiologyEconomics
Micro, Macro, International Trade. The craft of writing economics essays — Command Word Framework, diagram technique, and real-world examples.
Explore EconomicsBusiness
Real-world case studies, SWOT/PESTLE strategic analysis, and evaluation skills. We teach decision-making — not theory memorisation.
Explore BusinessAccounting
Every number precise, every step clear. Financial Accounting, Cost & Management, and Ratio Analysis — taught from double-entry first principles.
Explore AccountingComputer Science
Algorithms, Data Structures, Programming. A "think first, code later" philosophy — algorithmic thinking first, implementation second.
Explore Computer ScienceFurther Mathematics & new subjects
We're expanding the list of subjects we teach — including Further Maths 9231, Psychology, Sociology, and History. Contact us if your child needs support with a subject not yet listed.
Pick the right trio — open the right door
Each field has its own "golden trio". The wrong combo can close university doors without you realising.
Chemistry + Biology + Mathematics
Chemistry is virtually required by every UK university. Biology is "expected" for most Medicine programmes. Mathematics is the safest pick for the third subject.
Mathematics + Physics + Further Maths / Chemistry
Maths + Physics is virtually required. Further Mathematics significantly improves your odds at Oxbridge, Imperial, and other top programmes. Chemistry is preferred for Chemical Engineering.
Mathematics + Economics + Accounting / F.Maths
Mathematics is "essential" for most UK Economics programmes. Economics builds the theory foundation. The third subject depends on direction: Accounting for banking, Further Maths for LSE/Oxbridge.
Mathematics + Computer Science + Further Maths / Physics
Maths + CS is the standard pairing. Further Mathematics is a major advantage at Oxbridge and Imperial. Physics fits if your child is going into hardware or robotics.
Business + Economics / Mathematics + 1 flexible subject
Be careful: some UK universities treat Business + Economics as "overlap". Check the specific requirements of your target university. Mathematics is always a safe pick.
Biology + Chemistry + Mathematics / Physics
Biology + Chemistry is the "essential pair" for most Biomedical programmes. Mathematics provides the data-analysis foundation. Physics fits Biophysics or Medical Engineering tracks.
