About Me

I specialise in teaching GCSE Science and A level biology and have an absolute passion for teaching and learning. I have been teaching for >13 years and have been tutoring for >15 years. I got into teaching through private tutoring whilst at university and I haven't looked back!

As a teacher, I aim to help students really understand tricky concepts, whilst of course preparing them for formal academic qualifications (GCSE science, and A level Biology - All exam boards). My students always value the effort I put in for them to succeed.

I am a classic lifetime learner who loves learning new skills. This means I continuously understand what it is like to be in a position where knowledge and skills are unfamiliar and words seem like they are written in another language.

In my free time, I love cycling around the countryside, reading and playing my electric guitar.

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.

I graduated with a perfect 45/45 in the IB Diploma and achieved 7/7 in both Biology HL and Chemistry HL. I also have over 3 years of teaching experience.
In this class, I’ll share the strategies, techniques, and exam approaches that helped me achieve those results.
This class is focused on more than simply reviewing the syllabus. We will focus on how to approach IB science questions, apply your knowledge effectively, maximize marks, and consistently perform at a 6–7 level.

What we will focus on:
- How to approach difficult IB-style questions
- Strategies for moving from a 5 to a 6 or from a 6 to a 7
- How to understand command terms and what questions are really asking
- How to structure answers to maximize marks
- Data analysis, graphs, calculations, and experimental questions
- Common mistakes that cost students marks
- Time management and exam strategy
- Challenging 6–7 level Biology HL and Chemistry HL questions

We will work through challenging IB-style Biology and Chemistry questions step by step, focusing not only on what the correct answer is, but why the markscheme awards marks for it and how to recognize similar questions in an exam.
Whether you are currently working toward a 6, trying to push from a 6 to a 7, or simply want to become significantly stronger in IB Biology HL or Chemistry HL, this class will give you a clear and practical strategy for maximizing your exam performance.

Je propose un accompagnement personnalisé en mathématiques, sciences et travail scolaire pour les élèves de 7 à 17 ans. Les cours sont adaptés à l’âge de chaque élève, à son niveau scolaire, à son programme, à son rythme d’apprentissage et à ses besoins individuels.

Cet accompagnement peut servir de soutien scolaire régulier, d’aide aux devoirs, de renforcement des notions fondamentales, d’aide pour surmonter des difficultés spécifiques, de préparation aux contrôles et examens, ou simplement permettre à l’élève de gagner en confiance et en autonomie dans son travail.

Selon l’âge et le niveau scolaire de l’élève, les cours peuvent inclure :

¤ Mathématiques — calcul, fractions, pourcentages, géométrie, algèbre, équations, fonctions, trigonométrie, probabilités, statistiques et résolution de problèmes

¤ Sciences — sciences générales, matière et énergie, notions de base en physique et chimie, biologie, corps humain, environnement, ainsi que d’autres thèmes selon le programme scolaire de l’élève

¤ Aide aux devoirs et soutien scolaire — compréhension des cours, réalisation des exercices, révision des notions difficiles, préparation aux contrôles et développement de méthodes de travail efficaces

Mon approche pédagogique évolue avec l’âge de l’élève. Pour les plus jeunes, je cherche à rendre les mathématiques et les sciences intuitives et intéressantes grâce à des explications claires, des exemples concrets et une approche qui stimule la curiosité. À mesure que l’élève progresse, j’introduis progressivement un raisonnement plus structuré, des méthodes de résolution de problèmes et davantage d’autonomie.

L’objectif n’est pas simplement de terminer les devoirs ou de mémoriser des informations, mais d’aider l’élève à comprendre ce qu’il apprend, à développer son raisonnement, à gagner en confiance et à devenir progressivement plus autonome.

Je suis titulaire d’un doctorat en physique et possède une solide formation académique en mathématiques, physique et sciences expérimentales. J’adapte chaque cours au programme scolaire réel de l’élève plutôt que de suivre un programme fixe.

Les cours peuvent être dispensés en français ou en anglais, avec des explications en arabe lorsque cela peut faciliter la compréhension.

I graduated from Istanbul University’s Molecular Biology and Genetics program, ranking third in my department, and I am currently pursuing a master’s degree in Molecular Biology at the University of Padova. Biology is the field I’ve built my academic life around, and I enjoy helping students see that it is far more than a list of terms to memorize.

My lessons focus on understanding how biological systems actually work. Instead of rote learning, we build the logic step by step, from the cell and its machinery to genetics, molecular biology, and physiology, so that new topics connect to what you already know. I tailor each lesson to the student’s level and goals, whether that means high school biology, exam preparation, or university-level introductory courses such as cell biology, genetics, and biochemistry. I can also help with reading scientific texts and understanding lab concepts.

Lessons are available in English or Turkish. I look forward to working with you!

Hi! If physics is giving you a hard time and you are preparing for your GCSE or IGCSE exams under AQA, Edexcel, or OCR boards, I am here to help you take things from scratch and build complete confidence.
Here is how we go through the entire learning journey together:

Starting from the Basics: When we begin a new topic—whether it is forces, electricity, waves, or energy—we don't just jump into memorizing definitions. We start right from the very basics, breaking down what the concept actually means using simple, real-world logic.

Interactive Visual Learning: During our online session, we work on a shared digital whiteboard. I draw clean diagrams, circuit layouts, and ray optics step by step right in front of you so you can clearly visualize what is happening instead of just imagining it from a book.

Tackling Numericals: Physics formulas and calculations scare many students. We practice numerical problems slowly, learning how to rearrange formulas, substitute values correctly, and check units step by step until solving them becomes second nature.

Exam & Past Paper Practice: Once we finish a chapter, we immediately move to exam-style questions and past papers. We review how examiners mark answers, how to phraseexplanations properly, and how to manage time so you feel fully prepared and calm on your actual exam day.

Drop me a message anytime, and let's talk about which topics you want us to start working on together!
