Biology and other Life Sciences tutoring and support

As a Master's student in Biomedical Sciences, I have made it to a substantial level of subject knowledge, and combined with my above par teaching skills, will be able to help students understand several concepts in interdisciplinary sciences spanning the biology field.
Anyone struggling with course material, or wanting a taught introduction to a particular subject in Biology, or in need of a little assistance in grasping a specific concept, can all benefit from having sessions with me, not only as an amicable and patient tutor, but also to be a supportive person to learn with. Sessions with me will be flexible and curated to the need of the student, and I will readily provide any form of reading material and create assessments to help build confidence in the subject. I will guide and tutor in a calm, positive and encouraging way.

About Me

Hello! I am a Master's student at the University of Edinburgh, doing a research degree in Biomedical Sciences.
Teaching my subject is something I tremendously enjoy, as I think it not just benefits the student, but also myself as I engage more with concepts and intricacies in the subject.
I am a patient, encouraging and friendly teacher. Biological Sciences are incredibly fascinating to me as a field, and I hold a love for it that surpasses academic benefit, because the natural mechanisms of life are awe-inspiring. That is what I intend for anyone I can teach to also see.

I have a holistic yet simplifying approach to the subject, where I believe concepts should be taught to the student in such a way that the end result is that the learner can disassemble and reassemble the information blocks, and understand the relevance of what they learn in the subject.

Tutoring in scientific subjects (Chemistry, Mathematics, Biology)
Science subjects can be difficult, but very interesting and useful once they are understood. I am a fourth year undergraduate student studying Chemistry and Chemical engineering, and I offer help with high school courses, lower year university ones, or simply tutoring for people interested in the subject. Since I have followed an engineering-based degree the first two years, I have strong bases in most of the scientific subjects, such as calculus, algebra, chemistry and biology, and am glad to help anyone that might need it to understand them better.

Middle School / High School / AP, SAT, GCSE, A-Level / Undergraduate Level Biology
Biology is fascinating - we're all composed of complex molecular interactions! Why not learn more about it? My experience in academia has shown me that we all learn differently. I prefer tailoring my teaching methods upon learning more about what works for the student. I'm a Bachelor's degree in Neuroscience from the University of Edinburgh. I work in a research laboratory part-time and have prior experience with teaching science to children.

GCSE Chemistry, Biology and Maths Masterclass - Ace your GCSEs!
While I am passionate about my subjects, I understand that not everyone is ecstatic about studying. There's no point teaching simultaneous equations to a struggling student if it isn't on the GCSE Maths Foundation syllabus! Depending on grade that the student is aiming for/predicted I will: ●spend the first lesson with students going through their exam board syllabus, make it explicit what content is the core of the course content and structure lessons in descending importance ● (for higher level students) spend the first lesson with students going through their exam board syllabus, identify the weakest links and structure lessons in ascending order of skill I believe in spaced repetition so revisiting topics taught before is a must! This will manifest in the form of: ●surprise questions during the first 10 minutes of lessons ●helping prepare and working through past papers when it comes closer to exam time to encourage active recall. During normal lessons, there will be a mix of: ●theoretical teaching ●helping the student digest, understand and store useful information that has been presented ●visual aspects (diagrams) In order for students to efficiently absorb knowledge, I will teach one core topic per lesson. Top Tip if you want to get the most from me: Ask questions! I aim to have a friendly environment in lessons, I am not your teacher - I am your helper!
