Biology lessons for students up to (and including) A-levels

From 35.97 C$ /h

Up until the 19th century Biology seemed to be the forgotten science; while Chemistry and Physics were making revolutionary discoveries, Biology was lagging behind. However, Biology finally picked up speed with Darwin's Theory and it's now a very popular science amongst students.

While Biology can often seem daunting, with my classes I aim to explain and help those students who, like Biology in the past, feel like they are lagging behind :). Depending on what the student needs, I can help them go through what they have done in class, help with their homework or help them keep ahead! I might occasionally send some homework to make sure the knowledge is sinking in.

About Me

- I am a friendly univeristy student keen on helping other people learn Spanish.
- While most of the teaching will be done in the 60 minute online lessons, I encourage students to send me questions if they pop up at other times of the week. (Keep in mind though, that I may not be able to provide an immediate response)

Education

I graduated from school with a 10 as an overall grade. I am currently a year 2 Natural Sciences Student at UCL majoring in Molecular and Cell Biology and minoring in Physics.

Experience / Qualifications

Spanish is my first language and I have always enjoyed teaching my foreign friends the basics or having a full conversation with those who have a higher level. For those who want help preparing their GCSE, I obtained A*s in my First Language Spanish IGCSE and in the Spanish Literature IGCSE.

Spanish for beginners or seasoned professionals; all levels welcome!

24.61 C$ /h

This class is for people who want to learn Spanish, all levels are welcome! Spanish is the second most spoken language in world, and as such is one that can prove to be very useful when traveling or wishing to make new friends.

In my classes I aim to keep my students engaged regardless of whether I am teaching them the must-knows of the language or, approaching more complicated texts and subjects with them. I also find that students very often learn better through literature, and because of that, I aim to introduce them to some Spanish Literature, which is renowed world-wide. I might ocassionally send homework to make sure that the knowledge is cemented, but at no point do I intend to overwhelm the student. I know that in many cases, schoolwork already takes up enough time!

Chemistry lessons for students up to (and including) A-levels

30.29 C$ /h

Chemistry often involves a lot of memorising that in a lot of ocassions is made simpler by improving the student's understanding on the subject.

Through these lessons, I aim to help students improve their understanding of Chemistry so they can more easily solve reactions and excercises. The structure of the lessons will depend on the student's needs; some might need to go over what they have done in school, others help with their homework or simply to keep ahead in class. Keep in mind that I might occasionally send homework to make sure the knowledge is being cemented.

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.

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 offered are transdisciplinary.

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.

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

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!

Hi, I'm Maidi ! I'm a 3rd year medicine student aspiring to become a cardiovascular surgeon, I always have had a keen interest for biology since I was 11. I'm always very excited to share my interest and fascination with willing students by helping them form a strong foundation, building-up on said foundation and feeding their curiosity while also helping with success in their exams. I can confidently provide tutorship in English and Turkish.

My main goal for each lecture is to first make sure you are having fun learning the astonishing world of biology and second making sure you are learning with logic and understanding instead of memorizing the material given just to pass an exam. I aim to provide a safe learning environment where no question is out of bounds. I also provide with quizzes according to the topic done after the lectures in order to ensure lasting memory.

Whether you are a student wanting to perform better in an exam, a biology enthusiast which wants to start deepening their knowledge or want to pick a new learning hobby, I would be more than happy to teach and help you achieve your goals.
