Biology and Maths KS3, GCSE and A-level Tutor (In-person and Online)

From 30.74 C$ /h

My lessons are incredibly flexible, and I structure the lesson around fixing my students' misconceptions. This includes teaching a new topic from scratch or focusing on specific areas of difficulty depending on my students’ requirements.

I begin by assessing how well a student's level of initial understanding is. From there, I teach the lesson by explaining concepts, drawing diagrams, and using PowerPoints I've created beforehand. If my student struggles to grasp a concept, I explain it again and correct their mistakes. Finally, we cover exam questions to help mark the level of progress. I will always provide very honest feedback and give my students optional homework tasks for their independent learning.

I often find many students struggle with exam techniques. This is a very common challenge, especially at A-Level, as these techniques are vital to successfully answering application questions. Therefore, regularly practicing these skills via past papers and practice questions together really helps them achieve their goals.

About Me

Teaching is something I am incredibly passionate about. During Sixth Form, I committed to twice weekly tutoring sessions as Head Maths Prefect for struggling A-Level and GCSE students. I am very grateful to have been given this opportunity, as it allowed me to lead the team of maths tutors to create high-yield student-centred teaching sessions. I also believe higher education is incredibly important, which is why I accepted my offer to study Biology MSci at UCL, as I am very proud to be a woman doing STEM. My passion for learning and teaching science also prompted me to volunteer my time teaching chemistry and biology to struggling GCSE students. Ultimately, I always look forward to supporting students and providing the help necessary for them to reach their aspirations. This is why I am very excited to tutor and pass on my passion for biology.

Education

I am currently studying Biological Science MSc at UCL, and I wish to go into research and teaching in the future. At GCSE, I achieved all 8s and 9s (all 9s in science and maths), and at A-level, my grades were A*AA in biology, maths, and chemistry respectively.

Experience / Qualifications

I tutored maths in school for 2 years (in Sixth Form) as Head Maths Prefect, but I also taught biology and chemistry during this time to GCSE and A-level students. I thoroughly enjoy teaching and I have many revision resources available to give to my students. I always look forward to helping other students reach their full potential!
