About Me
I am a qualified and experienced Biology and Science teacher with a passion for helping students develop their understanding, confidence and enjoyment of science. I have taught students across a range of abilities and educational backgrounds in both UK and international school settings.
I take a supportive and student-centred approach to tutoring, adapting my teaching to suit each student's individual needs, goals and learning style. Whether a student needs help building their foundations, wants to improve their exam technique, or is aiming for the highest grades, I work with them to identify areas for development and build their confidence.
I believe students learn best when they feel comfortable, relaxed and supported. I am approachable and friendly, and I work to create an environment where students feel able to ask questions, make mistakes and say when they do not understand something without feeling embarrassed or judged. My aim is for every student to feel encouraged, while still being challenged to reach their potential.
Tutor Experience
I have over five years of teaching experience in both UK and international school settings, with experience teaching Biology and Science across KS3 and IGCSE. I have taught students with a wide range of abilities and learning needs, including EAL and SEN students.
My teaching experience includes planning and delivering lessons, developing curriculum resources, assessing student progress and preparing students for examinations. I have particular experience helping students develop their understanding of key Biology concepts, apply their knowledge to unfamiliar contexts and improve their exam technique.
Alongside classroom teaching, I have also provided private one-to-one online tutoring. I particularly enjoy working individually with students and tailoring sessions to their specific needs. Having worked in international education, I am experienced in supporting students for whom English is not their first language and helping them develop both their scientific understanding and confidence using subject-specific language.
Topic Expertise
My main area of expertise is Biology, with particular teaching experience in GCSE and IGCSE Biology and KS3 Science. I am also qualified to teach A-Level Biology and would be happy to support students at this level.
My areas of expertise include:
- GCSE/ IGCSE Biology
- Experienced in teaching the Cambridge IGCSE, with additional experience of AQA, and the ability to adapt teaching to other exam boards, including Edexcel and OCR.
- GCSE/ IGCSE Science (Biology, Chemistry, Physics)
- KS3 Science
- A level Biology
- Examination preparation and revision
- Exam technique and answering exam questions
- Developing understanding of challenging Biology concepts
- Supporting students who lack confidence in Biology or Science
- Adapting teaching to different abilities and learning needs
- Supporting EAL students in developing their scientific understanding and use of subject-specific language
I am particularly well suited to students who would benefit from a structured but supportive approach, whether they are looking to strengthen their foundations, improve their exam performance or build confidence in Biology and Science.
