Academic Writing in the Life Sciences and Biology Tutoring

From 49.99 C$ /h

Academic Writing in English is an essential skill you will need to write a comprehensible science essay, a project proposal, or an application letter to successfully transition to the best universities for the life sciences abroad.
My lessons will help you learn how to write in a style appropriate for the audience and the purpose of writing. By the end of the lessons, you will have learned how to write academic texts using the correct spelling, grammar, punctuation, and word usage. I have experience working with the following types of manuscripts: essays, letters, theses, journal articles, slides, and textbooks.
I also offer high quality tuition in biology to help students improve scores on school and standardized tests.

Hi,
My name is Santiago and I am offering individual and personalized virtual English classes to improve both your oral and written communication. The main focus of my classes is on developing English language communication in a fluid and structured way, whether to prepare for international exams, including the TOEFL and the FCE, or to be able to communicate adequately in the professional field, or to reinforce and maintain prior knowledge of this language.
I have a degree, graduated from Florida Gulf Coast University in the USA. Having learned English since I was a child at the Ivy Thomas Memorial School and lived for a year and a half in Thailand, followed by 4 years in the USA, I acquired great knowledge and fluency in the English language.
In Thailand I spent a year and a half studying communication arts and this helped me prepare for my studies in the US I had several communication classes, learning techniques on how to speak better using not only our words, but also our body to help us speak in a way more natural, calm and without getting nervous if we get stuck or forget what we wanted to say. During my career in the US I was constantly writing essays for my classes, in addition to having to present projects in front of my teachers and classmates. At the same time, I was working at university and after graduating I worked for a year, mainly having long conversations on the phone with people from all over the country.
Nowadays the ability to communicate in English is essential and I will prepare you so that you can meet your objectives. It could be studying abroad, going to live in an English-speaking country, improving communication in the professional field or practicing so as not to lose the level previously acquired.
If what you are looking for is to improve your knowledge of the English language, I am going to help you. My methodology is simple. Each person is different and I adapt the content of my classes to the needs and interests of my students. We all learn in different ways and at different times, that is why I design my classes individually.

Chemistry does not have to be a difficult subject if you understand it well. Being a PhD student in chemistry, I can help you understand many concepts that may not have been explained well in class. In this way and by doing many exercises you can safely pass the subject and even get a very good grade.

This class is designed for students in Primary Education and ESO following the Spanish curriculum for Ciencias Naturales and Biología. Lessons support students in understanding key concepts, improving study skills, and building confidence in science from an early age.

We cover topics such as living things, the human body, ecosystems, environment, health, and basic scientific reasoning. Lessons focus on clear explanations, visual examples, and age-appropriate activities that help students truly understand the material rather than memorise it.

My teaching approach is patient, structured, and adapted to each student’s level and learning pace. I aim to create a positive and encouraging environment where students feel comfortable asking questions and developing curiosity about science.
