About Me

I am a Biochemistry Undergraduate student at the University of St Andrews. I have a passion for chemistry and enjoy encouraging students to fulfil their potential within the subject.
As a student myself I understand the pressures of exams and learning. I wish to provide a tutoring service where the student can choose what the best way for them to learn is and to deliver this for them. I have a comprehensive understanding of my subject and the Scottish curriculum (SQA) and so can deliver exam targeted advice.
I have experience mentoring National 5 students as well as general experience working with young people.

Biology lessons for middle school, high school and college students!
Biology is a powerful science that becomes more and more influential as time passes. Biology allows for us not only to understand the world around us better but also helps us understand what goes on within our own bodies. Having studied Biology at the University of Edinburgh, I am incredibly passionate about the subject. Currently I am pursuing my research Masters degree in Biochemistry, working closely with protein design. I believe research is incredibly thrilling and learning about new research techniques and ideas feels like having a cookbook you can cook something fun and novel out of everyday! I would love to share my passion for Biology with you!

Oxbridge Application Preparation (Life Sciences Admissions)
Are you thinking of applying to Oxbridge for Life Sciences (Natural Sciences, Biology, Biomedicine)? With acceptance rates averaging around 15%, you want to give yourself the best chance to get that offer! And this is where I come in. I hold a 1st from Oxford in Biological Sciences and have volunteered as an Admissions mentor for over three years, coaching students through the application process. We will work together to adapt the course to your needs, working flexibly to focus on the areas where you want extra support. How can I help? - Personal Statement Support: Writing a personal statement doesn’t have to be painful. We will create an initial outline using your experiences and interests, producing a clear message and story throughout. Then, I will provide editing support, helping you to cut words down for the strict character limits. - Course and College Selection: Overwhelmed by the choice of courses/colleges? I can provide personal, insider knowledge into each college, helping you to make the right decision for you. - Tutorial Prep: Using my knowledge of the tutorial system, I design personalised tutorials based on your interests, fostering your love of science and building your confidence. Self-belief is an underrated skill, and together we will work to develop your confidence to speak up, even if you think you are wrong. - Interview Prep: The infamous Oxbridge interviews will not be as scary as they seem after our sessions. Using the self-belief and scientific analysis skills developed in our tutorial sessions, you will feel well-equipped to deal with an interview scenario. Initially, we will go through my bank of interview questions, discussing your approach and response to questions. As time goes on, we will start to practice mock interviews, 30-45 minutes of questions with feedback given afterwards. - Admissions Test Prep: Many courses demand rigorous admissions tests, which require sound subject knowledge and lateral thinking. We will work on these together, helping you to become accustomed to the style of the questions. I look forward to hearing from you!

Pauline
Tutoring in maths, biology and chemistry - Middle school/ High school
I have a Master's degree in Life Sciences Engineering from EPFL, after obtaining my Bachelor's degree in Life Sciences Engineering from EPFL with an overall average of plus 5/6. I offer one-to-one tuition or tutoring in maths, biology and chemistry from secondary school level to high school (maturité). I can also help with the preparation of marked assignments/tests. These are subjects that I work on a daily basis, in which I have always had excellent results, and in which I am used to helping students in difficulty. I base my teaching mainly on solving exercises progressively, to understand where the difficulties come from and to be able to work on them. This also helps to establish an excellent understanding of the theory as well as a very good repertoire of ‘typical’ exercises, which are often required for graded homework. I'm a good listener and I adapt to the student in order to understand their perspective. This allows me to approach problems from an angle that suits the student better. A more intuitive understanding of the theory, combined with a gradual and regular approach to exercises, gives students self-confidence and enables them to really improve in the long term! I'm very comfortable using webcam so I offer this support online! I use Zoom and a tablet which allows me to write and present the lessons directly on the student's screen.
