Oxford Biology Graduate with 2 Masters in Evolution Offering University Admissions Coaching for Biology in London and/or Online

I am a biology student currently applying for PhDs, and in the meantime interested in tutoring experience.I am looking to tutor students interested in applying for Biology or Zoology at university, especially in helping students through the Oxford admissions process (cover letter assistance and interview coaching).

After completing an undergraduate degree in Biological Sciences at the University of Oxford, I completed 2 Masters courses focusing on systematics, evolution and palaeontology at the Natural History Museums in London (course co-run by Imperial College) and Paris (course co-run by Sorbonne Université).
I completed my pre-university education in France through the french baccalaureate, and thus have particular experience in entering UK higher education from abroad (I am also bilingual/dual native in French and English).


As a passionate biology student I believe I have the tools necessary to help prospective students better express their potential throughout the admissions process.
As I am new to tutoring I have a keen interest in tailoring my tutoring to the student's needs and preferences, and preparing assiduously for sessions.

My university application coaching would involve:
- giving the student the tools to write an effective cover letter, and reviewing it with them in depth
- Helping students develop the right mindset and critical skills to tackle university interviews, and providing mock interviews

Nisath
KS1-3 Maths and/or GCSE Chemistry/Biology Tuition from an experienced tutor !
Hello, I’m Nisath, a dedicated tutor with 4 years of tutoring experience, particularly in teaching KS1-3. Throughout my tutoring journey, I’ve developed a teaching style that prioritizes making lessons proactive, interactive, and fully customized to meet each student’s unique learning needs. I believe that every student learns differently, and my approach is designed to adapt to their individual pace and style. Currently, I’m pursuing a degree in Chemistry, which has equipped me with a strong, comprehensive understanding of both GCSE Chemistry and Biology as well as KS1-3 Maths. I’m experienced in common exam boards, including Edexcel, AQA, which would allow me to tailor lessons specifically towards what students need to excel in their exams. I often conduct slightly longer tuition sessions, to provide a more holistic and thorough learning experience. This extended time frame allows us to explore topics in greater depth without feeling rushed, making room for a well-paced combination of concept explanation as well as exam practice with exercises and past questions. Ultimately, my goal as a tutor is to enhance your comprehension, improve your academic performance, and help you achieve the best possible results.

Nina
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!
