About Course

AS Level Sociology builds on IGCSE foundations with more sophisticated sociological theory, expecting balanced, well-evidenced essays that weigh up competing perspectives.

Because AS Level is offered through AQA, Cambridge, Edexcel, and OxfordAQA, exact theoretical emphasis and assessment style differ between boards. Centaurus Academy's AS Level Sociology tutors specialise in this subject and level alone, giving you an online AS Level Sociology tutor trained on the specific board your child follows, with AS Level Sociology tuition online built around that exact syllabus.

Lessons focus on essay structure and research methods evaluation, since strong marks depend on presenting knowledge the way examiners expect, not just knowing the theory.

Many of our AS Level Sociology students are also preparing for the transition into A2, so our tutors build genuine analytical skill that carries through directly into the second year.

Because Sociology exams reward balanced argument as much as knowledge, our tutors coach students on how to structure an essay that engages seriously with multiple viewpoints.
