Biology for high school, preparation to university and university beginners students

I am passionate for the natural sciences and I teach my students to understand how things works, why such a process works in a certain way instead of working in the other way around instead of keeping memorizing concepts. I teach not only to help the student succeed, but to make him understand the importance and the logic of science, arousing their curiosity and knowledge.

Extra information

Holding two masters (biology and human ecology), I used to study the populations of blue sharks in the South West Equatorial Atlantic Ocean. I have experience teaching in four languages, both at university and in high schools.

Location

At student's location: Around Brussels, Belgium

About Me

As Biologist, I worked for many years as a researcher in the biology of shark populations in the Southwest Equatorial Atlantic Ocean. As Human Ecologist I've given lessons of Environmental Conservation in Ecuador and Bolivia. Moreover, I have experience as a university professor on vertebrates' zoology and teaching biology in high schools. Besides, I speak English, French, Portuguese and Spanish.

I am passionate for the natural sciences and try to teach my students to understand the scientific method and to develop a critical thinking, instead of memorizing concepts.

In the IGCSE and CIE (Cambridge International Education)curricula, Genetics is a part of Biology under the broader topics of inheritance and variation. It is covered in both IGCSE Biologyand AS/A Level Biology. Below is a breakdown of what you can expect in each: IGCSE Biology (Cambridge - 0610/0970) The topic of genetics is introduced under the following key areas: 1. Variation and Inheritance - Genetic variation: Understanding differences caused by genetic and environmental factors. - Inheritance: - Definition of key terms: genes, alleles, dominant, recessive, homozygous, heterozygous, phenotype, genotype. - Monohybrid inheritance (using Punnett squares to predict offspring ratios). - Concepts of dominant and recessive traits. - Structure of DNA: - Basic structure of DNA (double helix) and its role in carrying genetic information. - Mutations: - Causes (e.g., radiation, chemicals) and effects of mutations on organisms. 2. Selective Breeding and Genetic Engineering (basic concepts): - Selective breeding in animals and plants to produce desired traits. - Introduction to genetic modification (GM), though details are limited in IGCSE. --- CIE AS and A Level Biology (9700) At the A Level, genetics is covered in greater depth. Key concepts include: 1. DNA and Protein Synthesis: - Structure of DNA, RNA, and nucleotides. - Transcription, translation, and protein synthesis. - Genetic code and its universal nature. 2. Cell Division: - Mitosis and meiosis. - Significance of meiosis in genetic variation (crossing over, independent assortment). 3. Inheritance: - Mendelian genetics: monohybrid and dihybrid crosses. - Codominance and multiple alleles. - Sex-linked inheritance (e.g., haemophilia, color blindness). - Pedigree analysis. 4. Gene Technology: - Recombinant DNA technology (genetic modification and cloning). - Applications of genetic engineering in medicine and agriculture. 5. Mutations: - Gene mutations and their effects. - Chromosomal abnormalities. 6. Variation and Selection: - Natural selection and evolution. - Role of genetic variation in populations. --- Summary - At the IGCSE level, genetics focuses on basic concepts of inheritance, variation, DNA structure, and simple Punnett square problems. - At the AS/A Level, the depth increases significantly, introducing advanced topics like meiosis, protein synthesis, genetic engineering, and natural selection.

Biology and science for young students and medical subjects for university students in Arabic and English
Science education at various educational levels is the cornerstone of building students' scientific understanding. In elementary school, science education focuses on developing curiosity and acquiring basic concepts through simple activities and experiments. In middle school, scientific understanding is deepened by studying the principles of physics, chemistry, and life sciences in an integrated manner. In high school, biology is taught in a more specialized manner, as students learn about cells, genetics, body systems, and biological diversity, preparing them for university studies. Teaching biology and basic medical subjects such as anatomy, physiology, pathology, and pharmacology is an important pillar in preparing students for medicine, pharmacy, and nursing. The focus is on applied science, with the depth of content varying according to each specialty, using modern methods such as active learning, simulation, and e-learning to enhance understanding and critical thinking.
