About Me
Hello! I’m a fully qualified science teacher with five years of experience, currently working at a leading all-girls boarding school. I hold a PGCE in Secondary Science and an MA in Education, and I’ve taught a wide range of students from Key Stage 3 to A-level. I specialise in GCSE Biology and Chemistry (AQA and Edexcel), with a particular focus on developing strong exam skills and building confidence. My lessons are calm, supportive, and tailored to each student’s needs. I’m passionate about helping young people achieve their goals and enjoy learning along the way.Education
MA in Education – Completed recently, with a focus on teaching and learning strategiesPGCE in Secondary Science – Qualified to teach Science at Key Stages 3–5
BSc (2.1) in Animal Behaviour
Experience / Qualifications
Science is a subject I’ve always loved for the way it helps us understand the world around us and I bring that enthusiasm into every lesson I teach. My aim is to make Biology and Chemistry not just manageable, but genuinely interesting and rewarding for my students. I’m particularly passionate about helping pupils prepare for their GCSE exams, focusing on developing the skills and confidence they need to succeed.I have experience with both AQA and Edexcel syllabi and regularly use common textbooks such as CGP GCSE Biology and Oxford’s AQA GCSE Biology series. My sessions are structured around building subject knowledge, mastering exam technique, and breaking down tricky topics into simple, memorable steps.
This class is designed to help GCSE Chemistry students build the skills and confidence they need to succeed in their exams. Whether you’re studying AQA or Edexcel, I’ll guide you through the key question types, common pitfalls, and strategies for tackling even the most challenging exam questions.
We’ll focus on:
Understanding command words and mark schemes
Structuring answers to calculation and extended-response questions
Reviewing key content through targeted revision
Practising with past paper questions
Learning memory techniques for tricky topics
Each session is tailored to your exam board and individual learning needs. Perfect for Year 10s wanting to get ahead or Year 11s preparing for mocks or final exams.
With five years of teaching experience and a PGCE in Secondary Science, I specialise in helping students develop the skills they need to succeed in GCSE Biology. I have taught both AQA and Edexcel specifications, and I'm confident in supporting students across a wide range of ability levels.
My approach focuses on strengthening exam technique—breaking down command words, tackling tricky application questions, and building confidence in extended response answers. I use past paper practice, targeted feedback, and proven revision strategies to help students understand what examiners are looking for and how to maximise their marks.
Whether your goal is to secure a strong pass or push towards top grades, I tailor each session to your learning style and specific needs, helping you feel prepared, focused, and in control on exam day.

Tutoring for both boards of Cambridge and edexcel. IGCSE / GCSE/IB/AS BIOLOGYBiology is particularly a challenging subject because it requires you to first understand the enormous number of concepts and then memories it simultaneously. I'll teach biology through the slides I have prepared (ig/GCSE only) which are made from multiple resource, such as marking scheme, the book and examiner reports, this is beneficial as while I teach the concept it will come to the student the exact way the examiner wants the student to answer, and ofcource while learning the slides he will be Able to directly do the past papers as the notes are mastercopy of the source itself. Moreover, I'll make sure that each topic is fully understood by the student so there will be no room for error.
