Tutor in Biology: GCSE, A-level, undergraduate (Biomedical Sciences)

I completed my GSCE's, A-levels and Bsc Biomedical Sciences in the UK before moving to the Netherlands where I completed my Msc in Oncology and continued my PhD in cancer research. I have a passion for science and would love to share my knowledge via tutoring.

My method of teaching involves explaining the content in an interactive manner and summarizing relevant key points to digest the information better in order to prepare for exams. In the first meeting with my student, we will pinpoint what help the student requires and based on that I will prepare a plan to work towards a set goal.

About Me

During my PhD I supervised both bachelor and master students to support them with their internships. Overtime, I realised that I enjoy explaining the basics of biology and the translation of these basics into their experiments. This helped them eventually to see the bigger picture and gain a better understanding of their project. I would like to apply these skills now as a tutor in both biology and biomedical sciences.

Education

Msc Oncology, Free University of Amsterdam (VU)
Bsc Biomedical Sciences, First Class Honours, University of Bradford
A-levels in Biology, Mathematics, Chemisty, Lawnswood Highschool, Leeds
GSCE, Lawnswood Highschool, Leeds

Experience / Qualifications

I am currently working as Medical Writer at a Medical Communications agency. Before this I was a Phd candidate for 3.5 years until I decided to change my career path. During my PhD I worked on translational research in the field of glioblastoma, renal cell carcinoma and colorectal cancer.

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.

IB Biology SL tutoring for those in need of extra support with anything biology-related, whether it's to do with anatomy or plants!
I completed Biology HL in IB with a 6 overall. I am now studying it at the university level and am ready to help students struggling with IB Biology SL. I am familiar with the syllabus and can help students break down complex topics into simpler concepts that are easy to digest. We will begin with a lesson in order to get to know each other and see whether our goals align. We will discuss what exactly you need help with and make a weekly tutoring schedule. At the end of every class I expect students to let me know what they need help with next time or tell me 3 days before the next lesson at the latest. This ensures each class makes the most of our time together. At the beginning of the next lesson we will do a few practice questions to revise out previous class and continue with the next desired topic. I am looking for students who are open to receiving constructive criticism. I promise I will approach all of our lessons with patience, kindness, motivation and support!

Come and learn Biology and Chemistry with an expert. Book now and have your best experience.
In the IGCSE and CIE (Cambridge International Education)curricula, Genetics is a part of Biology under the broader topics of inheritance and variation. It is covered in both IGCSE Biologyand AS/A Level Biology. Below is a breakdown of what you can expect in each: IGCSE Biology (Cambridge - 0610/0970) The topic of genetics is introduced under the following key areas: 1. Variation and Inheritance - Genetic variation: Understanding differences caused by genetic and environmental factors. - Inheritance: - Definition of key terms: genes, alleles, dominant, recessive, homozygous, heterozygous, phenotype, genotype. - Monohybrid inheritance (using Punnett squares to predict offspring ratios). - Concepts of dominant and recessive traits. - Structure of DNA: - Basic structure of DNA (double helix) and its role in carrying genetic information. - Mutations: - Causes (e.g., radiation, chemicals) and effects of mutations on organisms. 2. Selective Breeding and Genetic Engineering (basic concepts): - Selective breeding in animals and plants to produce desired traits. - Introduction to genetic modification (GM), though details are limited in IGCSE. --- CIE AS and A Level Biology (9700) At the A Level, genetics is covered in greater depth. Key concepts include: 1. DNA and Protein Synthesis: - Structure of DNA, RNA, and nucleotides. - Transcription, translation, and protein synthesis. - Genetic code and its universal nature. 2. Cell Division: - Mitosis and meiosis. - Significance of meiosis in genetic variation (crossing over, independent assortment). 3. Inheritance: - Mendelian genetics: monohybrid and dihybrid crosses. - Codominance and multiple alleles. - Sex-linked inheritance (e.g., haemophilia, color blindness). - Pedigree analysis. 4. Gene Technology: - Recombinant DNA technology (genetic modification and cloning). - Applications of genetic engineering in medicine and agriculture. 5. Mutations: - Gene mutations and their effects. - Chromosomal abnormalities. 6. Variation and Selection: - Natural selection and evolution. - Role of genetic variation in populations. --- Summary - At the IGCSE level, genetics focuses on basic concepts of inheritance, variation, DNA structure, and simple Punnett square problems. - At the AS/A Level, the depth increases significantly, introducing advanced topics like meiosis, protein synthesis, genetic engineering, and natural selection.
