I am a doctoral student in Biomedicine, I have worked in the molecular area, virology and cancer biology and I have also been an environmental guide. My goal is to teach students in a dynamic way, with great dedication and for them to understand that biology is not just what is in books.
It's okay if you're a beginner, intermediate or advanced, I assign one assignment per class and track progress periodically.

About Me

As an environmental guide and private teacher, I have noticed that students normally have classes based on reading books, boards classes, written workshops, and depending on the school, they can have laboratory practices or field trips occasionally. This makes biology boring. Also, in many cases in Colombia, the program content is relegated to current biology, which unmotivated the students and in the end, they do not learn too much.

I like to teach biology in a dynamic way, including the student and his/her curiosity, with curious tips or even with small activities that support what I am teaching to the student. I use the degree of the passion of the student as a measure of her/his learning, which has to be high and it is because he/she understands that biology is all that surrounds him/her, even if he/she does not see it so clearly.
I have learned this methodology thanks to the contact with the students and my motivation is based on her/his smile, her/his amazement, her/his desire to continue learning, the passion with which she/he asks the questions and I realize that many times, we underestimate the intelligence of the students, they are the best guides to know what they understand and what they don't.

préparation aux concours de réorientation de médecine ( SVT)
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.

Homework help & MATH lessons on COLLE / St PAUL & Surroundings - By PROFESSOR OF TRADE & PROFESSIONAL COACH
By PROFESSOR & PROFESSIONAL COACH Hello, First and foremost, I would like to wish you a warm welcome back to school and a peaceful year ahead as you work towards your goals. I am aware that the economic situation can sometimes be challenging, which is why I offer my services to accompany your child throughout their academic journey with ease and serenity. Throughout my career as a Graduate Teacher and Graduate Professional Coach, I have worked in various contexts. Until last year, I taught in front of whole classes as well as in private lessons. Since this year, I have been providing face-to-face private lessons at home and also via video conferencing, a mode of teaching that I have practiced with university students for the past ten years. My teaching environment has undergone significant changes, especially with the emergence of the Covid pandemic. This shift has led our secondary school students to adapt to the new mode of learning and communication, namely video conferencing. Despite the success of this transition, it is important to acknowledge that our younger students still require attention and a psycho-emotional connection in order to develop their autonomy peacefully. Over the past two decades, I have implemented proven methodological approaches, some of which are borrowed from theater techniques, such as the Davis method (mind mappings/colors), and my specialty, professional coaching, which aims to enhance your child's motivation. My main goal is to foster agility in your child across all subjects, not only for the present but also for their future when I will no longer be by their side. Ultimately, my objective goes beyond simply focusing on gaining points in a subject. I firmly believe in this approach due to my experience as a Mental Coach working with young athletes between Nice and Cannes, as well as throughout Europe via video conferencing, as part of their preparation for the French Tennis Championships. It has reinforced my conviction that working on a subject should be a nurtured objective that encompasses personal growth and development. As a Professor in General Education, specializing mainly in scientific subjects, I suggest supporting your child in gaining agility in constructing their academic path during this unique period that is filled with both opportunities and challenges. Looking forward to meeting you soon, Corinne. Teacher and Professional Coach Courses offered: - Mathematics / Sciences / Biology - French / French as a Foreign Language - History geography 💼 1000 Trained professionals 🎓🏆 1000 Students and High-Level Athletes in 11 Universities, Sports Clubs, and Schools 🎧 5000 Hours of collective training carried out in person and through E-Learning 🎤 1000 Face-to-Face and E-Learning Conference Hours 👫 6000 Individual Training Hours | Personalized support.

Ayan
Biology teacher from primary level to understate level
Hello, I am an enthusiastic and driven tutor who specialises in biology and genetics from secondary education all the way to undergraduate level. I graduated last year with a first-class Biology degree from one of the UK's top universities. I also received full marks in my Biology A-Level. My teaching style is direct, detail-orientated and tailored to your specific requirements. I have a wealth of previous tutoring experience. I have studied learning and development in detail, which puts me in an excellent position to give learning strategies, exam preparation and motivation advice. During my own time at university, I have learned that knowledge is no use without correct application. As such, I encourage all my students to bring out their full potential through their exam technique and planning skills.

Mathematical subjects for students of different levels
I am a postdoctoral researcher in the area of operations research and I propose the following classes: The key to success in mathematics is to learn how to think outside-the-box. This valuable ability helps mathematicians to solve real problems in today’s world. This course helps to develop that crucial ability and, thus, to understand mathematics. The beginner and intermediate classes focus on the overall understanding of school mathematics and, particularly, of the topics in 1) Algebra 2) Geometry 3) Introduction to probability The advanced classes focus on particular fields in mathematics taught at universities (e.g., linear algebra, probability theory, optimisation etc.). I also train for the mathematics section of the GMAT exam.

Louis
Scientific subjects (Maths, Physics, SVT, etc.) at all levels
I offer private lessons in mathematics, physics and SVT for students of all levels, educated in the French or international system. Flexible, I could adapt to your requests, whether you need help understanding the course, solving exercises, correcting a supervised assignment or preparing for an exam. My approach will be to allow the student to create their own deep understanding of the subject, thanks to educational explanations, intuitive examples as well as personalized training exercises. I am convinced of the individual nature of learning and teaching, and I will do my best to adapt my help on a case-by-case basis, so that it can be truly useful for the success of each student!
