Study Biology iGCSE/GCSE with an experienced qualified teacher

From 173 C$ /h

Biology is a challenge for many students, not only due to the scientific concepts covered, but also as there is a significant language component. With the right support, I believe every student can excel in this subject. As a qualified teacher with over a decade’s experience working in education, I am confident in identifying student needs and adapting my classes to suit them.

I am committed to helping students achieve their goals in biology. Whether you are looking to extend your study outside of the curriculum or need support in achieving the grades necessary for further study, I can help.

About Me

Hi there,

I’m Lizzie, a biology graduate and qualified teacher with over a decade’s experience of working in education.

I believe in the importance of dialogue in teaching and learning. When taking classes with me, you can expect to be challenged with questions adapted to your level, and I hope we can engage in discussions over the topics you find most interesting or need more support with.

Having taught in one of Beijing’s top international schools for five years, I have learned to adapt my teaching style to a range of different learning needs. Whether you are looking for additional practice with foundational concepts for science study, or you hope to extend your learning with projects developed to support future school applications, I would be thrilled to help you achieve your goals.

Although I prefer classes to take place in English, I also speak basic Mandarin.

I look forward to helping you reach your educational goals.

If you're looking for an organised and professional teacher to help you achieve your academic goals, look no further! The IB science subjects can be extremely difficult to go through on your own, and I'll be glad to use my experience to help you out.

A couple of things I like to do:

- Initial test or interview to assess your level.
- Use Notion as a platform to share all my resources.
- Use mock papers that lay out the exercises JUST like in the real exams, so you will feel really prepared.
- I give homework when appropriate.
- I provide any kind of mentoring and college counseling. People who study Biology and Chemistry usually want to pursue a clinical career-- and that is a complex process!

The SAT exam is one of the major steps you need to go through in your life; it's a step that is going to determine your college, your university, and your future as a whole. As with a lot of things in life, it can be a hard step, and there is no shame in asking for help. Here comes my role: I will help you overcome your problems and your difficulties. My job here is to help you achieve your desired results and unlock your potential. Simply put, we will go through every lesson, every unit, and every chapter. We will understand the concept of each lesson, with clear examples to follow. After each one, you will be tested, and after finishing your program, you will be tested on it. That's my plan for my students, so if you are interested, you can easily contact me.

Hi! My name is Amir, and I'm really glad you're here.
I am passionate about biology, and today I want to make it clear, logical... and above all interesting for you.

I have a bachelor's degree in cell biology and physiology, a master's degree in neuroscience, and I recently defended a doctorate in life and health sciences.
Throughout my career, I have trained and mentored several students and I love sharing what I know.

With me, there are no complicated or monotonous lessons:
👉 simple explanations,
👉 concrete examples,
👉 diagrams,
👉 and a method that adapts to your level and your goals.

Whether you want to pass an exam, catch up, delve deeper into a subject or finally understand what happens in a cell, I'm here to help you, step by step.
My goal is for you to progress, to understand... and to gain confidence.

I offer private tutoring at home for all levels, from primary school to high school. A typical session consists of the following steps:

-Reviewing the student's course materials, with answers to any questions.
-Correction of teacher's exercises or specific exercises depending on the student's difficulties.
-Preparation for possible student assessments using formative assessments that I have developed, targeting the student's difficulties.

Everything is tailored to each student using fun and engaging methods. Learning while having fun is not impossible!

Need help with maths or biology?
As a biomedical scientist with a PhD in Medicine and Health Sciences, I enjoy helping students of all ages to better understand the material and learn with greater confidence. We work at your own pace and in a way that suits your learning style.

How does a lesson work?
In the first session, we identify the main difficulties together. From there, we build up step by step. I encourage questions and provide practical tips and strategies to make studying more effective.

We work through exercises together, discuss examples, and then move on to more challenging problems to deepen understanding. This approach ensures you’re well prepared for your tests and exams.

A positive learning experience
Learning should be enjoyable. With a patient, motivating and clear approach, I create a relaxed environment where it’s okay to make mistakes, and no question is too much to ask — because that’s how real learning happens.

Interested?
Feel free to get in touch for more information or to arrange your first lesson. I’ll be happy to help you move forward!

I hold a Doctorate in Pharmacy and 2 Masters degrees from the University of Paris V René-Descartes.
Since the beginning of my higher education, and since I established myself as a freelancer after 10 years of managerial career in the pharmaceutical industry, I have been used to regularly giving private lessons to pupils and students of all levels, Primary, Secondary and Higher, supporting them until they pass their exams.
The main disciplines in which I support students are essentially scientific.
The perspectives provided are transdisciplinary.

Make Biology and Chemistry easier, clearer, and more enjoyable! 🧬🧪 I offer personalized online lessons for primary, middle school, and high school students, with lessons adapted to each learner’s age, level, and learning goals.

In Biology, we can explore topics such as cells, genetics, human body systems, microorganisms, ecology, evolution, and life processes. For Chemistry, I can help with atoms, elements, the periodic table, chemical bonds, reactions, acids and bases, and other key concepts.

With my background in Biology, specializing in Microbiology, I enjoy breaking down difficult scientific ideas into simple explanations, examples, and engaging activities that are easy to understand and remember.

Whether your child needs help with school lessons, homework, exam preparation, or challenging topics, I will provide patient and supportive guidance at their own pace.

✨ Let’s make Science less confusing and more fun to learn!

Anatomy is the subject where you can study for hours and still go blank on exam day. The problem usually isn't effort. It's that the material was never made to stick.

I'm Hina, a final-year Doctor of Physiotherapy (DPT) candidate, and I tutor anatomy, physiology, neuroanatomy, neurophysiology and biology one-to-one. You send me your syllabus, lecture slides or notes before we meet, and I build each lesson from your own course material, so we cover exactly what your exam covers and nothing twice.

Every topic gets a memory hook: a short mnemonic or diagram you can still recall under pressure. I draw live during the lesson and test you out loud, so we find the gaps in the session, not in the exam hall.

One of my students, a medical student at the University of Milan, had failed six subjects, including anatomy, neuroanatomy and physiology. After two months of lessons, she passed all six.

I teach students from school level (O Level, A Level, FSc, MDCAT) through MBBS and university health-science courses, in English or Urdu, whichever makes it click.

Start with a free 30-minute trial. Tell me what's going wrong and you'll leave with a study plan either way.
