Academic Writing in the Life Sciences and Biology Tutoring

Academic Writing in English is an essential skill you will need to write a comprehensible science essay, a project proposal, or an application letter to successfully transition to the best universities for the life sciences abroad.
My lessons will help you learn how to write in a style appropriate for the audience and the purpose of writing. By the end of the lessons, you will have learned how to write academic texts using the correct spelling, grammar, punctuation, and word usage. I have experience working with the following types of manuscripts: essays, letters, theses, journal articles, slides, and textbooks.
I also offer high quality tuition in biology to help students improve scores on school and standardized tests.
