About Me
I am an experienced teacher with background in Academia and Industry (Pharma).
I was faculty member of Univ of Dhaka, Bd, before I moved to the UK to do my PhD. I was extremely lucky to do this at the interface of Biology/Chemistry at Univ of Oxford. I was a postdoc for a year, developing bio-devices at Univ of Oxford before I had to leave for NL with award under Marie-Curie. I moved back to the UK to take up a job as Senior Scientist with Pfizer. After almost 3 years there, I am doing a career change to take up teaching, which I had been doing on-and-off throughout my career. I thus bring unique insights on how the world uses science to the classroom, giving space for the student to be inspired by them.
I have a daughter who is young enough to not care about studies at all. However, my two older boys are another matter. They have to as they are both in secondary schools. They are at two different Grammar schools with very different approaches to study as well as in the board they choose to follow for some of their subjects. My two boys are also very different in their personalities, which is making it a very interesting phenomenon to observe as they begin to tackle their own GCSE issues.
Tutor Experience
I have been teaching on-and-off for more than 20 years. I specialize in teaching students who have 'fallen behind'. I will work according a schedule catered to the students' needs. I am also happy to conduct GCSE assessments.
I have experience teaching GSCE/A level Maths, Biology and Chemistry. I have taught 1st year Chemistry students their Maths in tutorial sessions (Univ of Oxford). I have also taught Chemistry at University level as well as done research at the interface of Chemistry/Biology, both in Academia (Bd, UK and NL) )and Pharma (UK). This gives me unique insights/anecdotes in teaching which enable students to be excited about the subject.

Client Reviews
Ms. Tania is a great teacher! I am in year 12 and wanted to get ahead on the subject material for A-level chemistry. Ms. Tania has been helping me get through the topics thoroughly and efficiently with direct referencing from the specification, allowing me to learn the things that are important and not the fluff that comes with textbooks. She is also very patient and lets me ask a thousand and one questions in order for me to understand the topics. Her answers are always very well thought-out and allows me to have a deeper understanding of Chemistry which I very much appreciate. I would highly recommend her as she takes the time to tailor her teaching according to the correct board and ensures that you understand the topic before moving on.
