Academy Profession Degree in Chemical and Biotechnical Science (BAAA Denmark)
HND in Biological and Chemical Sciences (Coventry University)
BSc Hons in Biomedical Science (Edinburgh Napier University)

I am a huge science enthusiast with particular interests in data science, molecular biology and organic chemistry, additionally to my lab technician and research experience I have participated in teaching students a variety of scientific concepts, methods (e.g. at University of Warwick), so rest assured I will give my 100% to make sure that you overcome difficult topics with ease!

I have been struggling with understanding plenty of scientific principles, such as molar calculations, the way the lactose operon works, or even DNA replication and I managed to get through it all. That makes me want to help you fellow students as well, as I strongly believe that if someone cannot explain something in plain English he doesn't understand it enough to teach!

Biology is fascinating - we're all composed of complex molecular interactions! Why not learn more about it?

My experience in academia has shown me that we all learn differently. I prefer tailoring my teaching methods upon learning more about what works for the student.

I'm a Bachelor's degree in Neuroscience from the University of Edinburgh. I work in a research laboratory part-time and have prior experience with teaching science to children.

Biology is the scientific study of life. It is a natural science with a broad scope but has several unifying themes that tie it together as a single, coherent field.

Those who want more and more knowledge to build up a career in biology and chemistry , I'll be able to help you to achieve your career goal

Are you thinking of applying to Oxbridge for Life Sciences (Natural Sciences, Biology, Biomedicine)?

With acceptance rates averaging around 15%, you want to give yourself the best chance to get that offer! And this is where I come in. I hold a 1st from Oxford in Biological Sciences and have volunteered as an Admissions mentor for over three years, coaching students through the application process. We will work together to adapt the course to your needs, working flexibly to focus on the areas where you want extra support.

How can I help?
- Personal Statement Support: Writing a personal statement doesn’t have to be painful. We will create an initial outline using your experiences and interests, producing a clear message and story throughout. Then, I will provide editing support, helping you to cut words down for the strict character limits.
- Course and College Selection: Overwhelmed by the choice of courses/colleges? I can provide personal, insider knowledge into each college, helping you to make the right decision for you.
- Tutorial Prep: Using my knowledge of the tutorial system, I design personalised tutorials based on your interests, fostering your love of science and building your confidence. Self-belief is an underrated skill, and together we will work to develop your confidence to speak up, even if you think you are wrong.
- Interview Prep: The infamous Oxbridge interviews will not be as scary as they seem after our sessions. Using the self-belief and scientific analysis skills developed in our tutorial sessions, you will feel well-equipped to deal with an interview scenario. Initially, we will go through my bank of interview questions, discussing your approach and response to questions. As time goes on, we will start to practice mock interviews, 30-45 minutes of questions with feedback given afterwards.
- Admissions Test Prep: Many courses demand rigorous admissions tests, which require sound subject knowledge and lateral thinking. We will work on these together, helping you to become accustomed to the style of the questions.

I look forward to hearing from you!

I am a tutor for a variety of school subjects, particularly English, Mathematics, and Biology. I am currently studying International Development at King's College University. Before university, I achieved 3 As in Advanced Higher English, Biology, and Modern Studies, and 5 As in Higher English, Mathematics, Human Biology, Chemistry, and Modern Studies. Therefore, I am able to tutor in any of these subjects as well as Politics and Sociology as these are key topics in my current degree. I am also a swimming instructor so I am accustomed to working with children of all ages and abilities and I am extremely patient and able to adapt my teaching style and lessons to meet all children's personal needs. I am able to tutor in person or online.

I’m prepared to help my students excel at Biology, Chemistry, Biochemistry, or their UK medical school applications! I offer a wealth of knowledge and experience, backed by a strong academic background. My patient and supportive approach, coupled with effective communication skills, allows me to explain complex concepts in a clear and understandable manner. I am dedicated to tailoring my teaching methods to individual needs, ensuring that students grasp difficult topics and achieve their academic goals.

Academic background:
a) 44/45 points in the IB with an A* (IB 7) in Biology and Chemistry.
b) 1st class honours in Biochemistry from Imperial College London. Awarded the Deans List prize in years 2 and 3 (top 10% highest scoring student).
c) UCAT score of 2960.
d) 91% average at my first year at Edinburgh medical school.

Biology is a powerful science that becomes more and more influential as time passes. Biology allows for us not only to understand the world around us better but also helps us understand what goes on within our own bodies. Having studied Biology at the University of Edinburgh, I am incredibly passionate about the subject. Currently I am pursuing my research Masters degree in Biochemistry, working closely with protein design. I believe research is incredibly thrilling and learning about new research techniques and ideas feels like having a cookbook you can cook something fun and novel out of everyday! I would love to share my passion for Biology with you!

Are you struggling to absorb content because you're not sure if you need to know it for your exam? I'm a Biology Undergrad teaching GCSE/ Nat5 science students in person or online. In my lessons, we focus on a combination of explaining concepts and practice questions, with an exam-focused style, so you know what you need to know and enjoy learning it.

I provide tutoring lessons for anyone studying biology at National 5 or Higher level. I studied biology at both levels in high school and I am now studying a related degree at university.

I try my best to cater to every students' needs. Both weekly tutoring and on-off lessons are available. The one-off lessons can be arranged whenever a student feels they need help on specific topics.

*Tutoring can also be provided for those studying human biology.

Biology the study of living organisms and their interactions with the environment. It covers a wide range of topics, including the structure and function of cells, genetics, evolution, ecology, and more. Biology helps us understand how living things work and how they're connected to the world around us. Let me know if you have any specific questions or if there's anything else I can help you with!

I tutor Biology at National 5, Higher, and Advanced Higher level. I can provide help understanding course content, practicing exam questions, and more. If you are thinking about crashing a subject I can help provide a basic level of knowledge which it is extremely beneficial to have when directly entering a subject at a Higher or Advanced Higher level.
The sessions can be completely dictated by what the student feels they need from me or I can take a more structured approach after an initial consultation.
I am a friendly and passionate tutor with a comprehensive understanding of my subject.

I am a 2021 IGCSE graduate and a 2023 IB graduate, now studying Veterinary Medicine at the University of Edinburgh. Having recently completed these programmes myself, I understand the challenges students face and how to overcome them effectively.

With 1 year of experience teaching the IGCSE syllabus and 1 year of experience teaching the IB syllabus, I specialize in helping students master subject content, strengthen exam techniques, and build confidence. My lessons are tailored to each learner’s pace and goals, ensuring steady progress and measurable results.

What I offer:
- IB & IGCSE syllabus coverage across core and extended levels
- Exam preparation with past paper practice and detailed feedback
- Structured guidance for Internal Assessments (IA), Extended Essays (EE), and coursework
- Study and time-management strategies designed to reduce stress and boost performance
- A supportive, relatable learning environment from someone who has recently been through the same exams successfully
