Biology tutoring for GCSE students: exam technique, content, Q and A

From 46.06 C$ /h

Hi! My name is Lea and I am a student at the University of Southampton. I am currently studying BSc Marine Biology with Oceanography as biology is my biggest passion. I would like to help make your GCSE experience in Biology easier and I want to achieve this by listening to you! My motivation and belief is that structuring a strict universal lesson plan in a "one-fits-all" approach is of little use because everybody learns differently and needs help in different places. Whether you need help with exam technique, content, or have some questions for an assignment you would like help with, I will adapt to your needs.

I passed GCSE Biology with a grade 8 and I was graded a 7 in the International Baccalaureate Diploma Programme.

Extra information

All I ask is for the student to let me know in advance what areas they would like help with so that I can prepare specific materials for the student.

Advanced Placement (AP) examinations are exams offered in United States by the College Board and are taken each May by students. The tests are the culmination of year-long Advanced Placement (AP) courses. AP exams (with few exceptions have a multiple-choice section and a free-response section.

As an AP Biology teacher, I implement a curriculum that aligns with the AP Biology course framework and prepares students for the AP Biology exam. I also provide constructive feedback to help students improve their knowledge and skills. Prepare students for the rigor of the AP Biology exam by administering practice tests and review sessions.

I'd like to start by greeting everyone who is reading this and then briefly discuss the teachings I'm providing. Going to medical school is a major step, and while becoming a doctor may have been a big dream of yours, things unfortunately didn't turn out the way you had hoped. You didn't receive what you eagerly want following your bac. I'm here to tell you that earning your bac is just the first step on a longer journey. You have another opportunity to fulfill your lifelong ambitions. What role do I play in this? as someone who has been in your position and ultimately obtained what I want. We will have a customized plan that fulfills your needs, we will correct any unsuccessful methods and build new ones, and I will lead you through the program at every stage.
