IB Biology SL tutoring for those in need of extra support with anything biology-related, whether it's to do with anatomy or plants!I completed Biology HL in IB with a 6 overall. I am now studying it at the university level and am ready to help students struggling with IB Biology SL. I am familiar with the syllabus and can help students break down complex topics into simpler concepts that are easy to digest.
We will begin with a lesson in order to get to know each other and see whether our goals align. We will discuss what exactly you need help with and make a weekly tutoring schedule. At the end of every class I expect students to let me know what they need help with next time or tell me 3 days before the next lesson at the latest. This ensures each class makes the most of our time together. At the beginning of the next lesson we will do a few practice questions to revise out previous class and continue with the next desired topic.
I am looking for students who are open to receiving constructive criticism. I promise I will approach all of our lessons with patience, kindness, motivation and support!

Do you want to study medicine in Italy? Support for Medicine entrance Exam in ItalyI have worked for 5 years now with high school kids interested in studying medicine in Italy (both in italian or English)
I believe that the key for a successful preparation of a challenging test such as the medicine entrance exam is exercise, in fact I believe that is crucial to start the preparation with an adequate advance to gain confidence with the standard exercises we can find in the exam.
My lessons are based on mock exams: we go through them together seeing what are the student's gaps and then reviewing the theory of those gaps.
I also believe that my method I successful since I can relate to the fear and anxiety a student preparing such a stressful exam is living, having prepared it not so long ago.
Every lesson we go through a subject so we can focus on the hardest topics in every subject.
