Trusted teacher: Biology lessons taught by an engineering graduate with over 16 years of experience, as of 2024, in teaching mathematics (up to undergraduate level), biology (up to secondary level, including IGCSE, GCSE, and S5), and physics and chemistry (upper secondary levels, IB, and A level). With extensive experience in tutoring Biology, I provide specialized lessons for students up to the GCSE, IGCSE, and European S5 levels. I aim to make Biology engaging and accessible, helping students not only understand the material but also excel in their exams and coursework. Whether you're studying ecosystems, human physiology, genetics, or cell biology, I tailor my lessons to meet your individual learning needs. I offer comprehensive lessons that simplify complex concepts, ensuring that students gain a solid grasp of the subject. I take pride in breaking down difficult topics into manageable pieces, helping students build confidence in their knowledge and abilities. My teaching approach is interactive, encouraging students to ask questions and think critically about the material. I also have more than 7 years of experience in teaching and guiding standardized tests such as the GRE and SAT. I can help you effectively learn standardized courses like the GRE, SAT, and even TOEFL. For mathematics, I provide lessons for students up to the bachelor's level, including bachelor students, IB (Math SL and Math HL) students, AS/A-level students, European S6 and S7 level students, GCSE students, and IGCSE students. Science (physics and chemistry) courses are available for students up to the European upper secondary level, including IB and A level. Science (biology) lessons are available for students up to the European secondary level, GCSE level, and IGCSE level. Currently, I am teaching: 1. GCSE students 2. IGCSE students 3. IB students 4. European School students 5. AS/A level students My current students are from the following schools: 1. St Georges International School, Luxembourg, Edexcel (Pearson) Curriculum (10 students) 2.

Achieving 8's in GCSE Maths, Biology and Chemistry and now studying Biochemistry at University In my lessons, I focus on creating a supportive and interactive learning environment where concepts are broken down into simple, manageable steps. We’ll use techniques like active recall and spaced repetition to ensure long-term understanding and retention. I’ll also incorporate visual aids and real-world examples to make learning engaging and relatable. Every session is tailored to your needs, helping you build confidence, tackle challenging topics, and develop the skills needed to succeed independently. I also encourage you to think about problems carefully, not just memorize answers. I teach you how to break down questions and look for patterns, so you can solve problems more easily. Additionally, if you struggle with organisation and time management, I can help with note-taking and creating personalized revision timetables. These tools will be valuable for your independent study, helping you stay on track and make the most of your revision time. For Maths, I’ll guide you through solving problems step by step, using diagrams and graphs to clarify abstract ideas. Real-world applications will show how mathematical concepts are useful beyond the classroom, helping you master key skills and feel prepared for any type of question. In Chemistry, I simplify complex topics like bonding, reactions, and calculations by linking them to everyday examples, making them easier to understand. We’ll focus on problem-solving strategies, clear explanations, and regular practice to ensure you’re exam-ready. In Biology, I bring topics like cells, ecosystems, and human systems to life by connecting them to relatable, real-world contexts. Using diagrams and structured explanations, I’ll help you break down complex processes and explain them in your own words. Mistakes are a natural part of learning, and I encourage you to attempt challenging questions without fear. This approach helps us pinpoint areas for growth, so you’re fully prepared for exams. Together, we’ll unlock your potential and make your goals a reality in Maths, Chemistry, and Biology!

The cell, the fundamental unit of all living beings, is a complex structure composed of different elements working in harmony. The plasma membrane: the protective envelope The plasma membrane is a semi-permeable barrier that delimits the cell and separates it from its environment. It consists of a double layer of phospholipids, in which various proteins are integrated. These proteins play a crucial role in the transport of substances across the membrane, cell communication and cell recognition. The cytoplasm: the internal environment The cytoplasm is the aqueous medium inside the cell. It contains many organelles, inclusions, and the cytosol. The cytosol is the liquid part of the cytoplasm, rich in enzymes and molecules necessary for the chemical reactions of the cell. The Core: The Control Center The nucleus is a characteristic organelle of eukaryotic cells. It contains the genetic information of the cell in the form of DNA, organized into chromosomes. The nucleus is surrounded by a nuclear envelope pierced by nuclear pores that allow the exchange of molecules between the nucleus and the cytoplasm. Organelles: specialized factories Organelles are specialized structures present in the cytoplasm. Each of them fulfills a specific function: Mitochondria: Nicknamed the "power plants" of the cell, they are the seat of cellular respiration, a process that produces the energy needed by the cell. The endoplasmic reticulum: A network of membranes involved in the synthesis of proteins and lipids. The Golgi apparatus: A set of flattened sacs that modify, package, and distribute proteins and lipids synthesized by the endoplasmic reticulum. Lysosomes: Small vesicles containing digestive enzymes that break down unnecessary or damaged molecules. The cytoskeleton: the skeleton of the cell The cytoskeleton is a network of protein filaments that gives the cell its shape, allows it to move, and organizes its organelles. It is made up of three types of filaments: microfilaments, intermediate filaments, and microtubules. The differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells There are two main types of cells: prokaryotic cells (bacteria) and eukaryotic cells (animals, plants, fungi). Prokaryotic cells are simpler and do not have a nucleus or membrane-bound organelles. Eukaryotic cells, on the other hand, are more complex and have a nucleus and many organelles.

Narayan
Narayan is a really good teacher. I urgently needed someone to teach me physics for two different medical school entrance exams. He was able to do it very fast and well. Every lesson started with him explaining a specific concept, and then he gave me practice questions to ensure that I was confident in solving them. Additionally, after every lesson, he shared his notes with me to study from them later on. I truly feel confident and prepared for my exams. Thank you so much!!

Sarah
Sarah has been teaching French to my 12 year old daughter for 6 weeks to prepare her for end of tests. My daughter has massively benefited from the sessions in her confidence both reading and speaking. Highly recommend Sarah!
