Biology Instructor for beginners, in English and Greek
My classes are for students who want to get famiriazed with the fascinating world of Biology! As my Bachelor's studies covered the majority of the Biology fields, together we can explore all three domains of life, starting our journey from the molecular level, moving on to the cells -the smallest units of life- and, finally, ending up to the populations.
Looking forward to hear from you!

About Me
Hey there!I am Xanthippi, a Greek M.Sc. student at Copenhagen Business School (CBS).
I have a B.Sc. in Biology, earned by National and Kapodistrian University of Athens. My Bachelor's studies covered a wide range of fields of this fascinating science. More specifically, I learned about Plant and Animal Physiology, Zoology, Genetics, Microbiology, Evolution, Molecular Biology and many others. This way, thoughout those years, I acquired a well-rounded picture of Biology.
After my studies in Athens, I wanted to find a way to apply my knowledge and produce tangible results. This is why I have freshly started a master's programme in Bioentrepreneurship, in Copenhagen.
Furthemore, it is the right time for me to start sharing my knowledge with other people who want to explore the field of Biology or delve a little bit deeper into it.
Through my experience as a Science Communicator, in Athens Science Festival and Researcher's Night, I discovered my love to communicate scientific topics with others!
I also confirmed my belief that the best way to convey a complex concept is through visual aids and real-life examples. Thus, these are the teaching techniques I will integrade into my classes.
Finally, I believe that, as with any human interaction, teaching should be carried out with the active contribution and active listening of both the instructor and the student.
I can't wait to meet my next eager-to-learn student.
Looking forward to hear from you!!

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:

---
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.

Biology (Cell, Evolutionary, Genetics) from basic to advancedBiology is one of the most important subjects in the science field. It's a core course taught everywhere, but the key to understanding any type of science, including Biology, is applying theoretical knowledge to real-life phenomena. That's what I valued the most as a pupil and student myself, putting my knowledge to practice, and that's exactly what I want to teach my students.
We will go through all the unclarities and gaps of knowledge you may have from school or university and reinforce our lessons by finding ways to practice Biology in real life.
That's what Biology is about since it is the science of life after all, isn't it?
You're more than welcome to join my class, and I'll make sure you ace those Biology exams.

Mastering Life Sciences: Biology, Biochemistry, and BeyondScience especially Biology, has always been my passion—a world of discovery, curiosity, and endless possibilities. With a Master’s degree in Applied Biosciences and Biotechnology from Imperial College London, I’ve spent years exploring the fascinating interplay of biology, microbiology, biochemistry, and chemistry. What drives me most is the ability to inspire others to see the wonder in these subjects, empowering students to embrace science as a way to understand and shape the world around them.
In my classes, I aim to make biology approachable and enjoyable. I believe that every student has a unique way of learning, so I tailor my lessons to suit their needs, whether they’re building foundational knowledge or diving into advanced topics. My teaching style is interactive and friendly, using real-world examples, experiments, and visual aids to explain complex ideas in a simple, engaging manner. I encourage questions and discussions, creating a supportive environment where students feel comfortable exploring their curiosity.
Together, we’ll not only tackle academic goals but also develop critical thinking and problem-solving skills that go beyond the classroom. Whether preparing for exams, improving grades, or simply nurturing a love for science, my goal is to make learning both meaningful and fun. I look forward to sparking that “aha!” moment for my students and guiding them on their educational journey.

All About Science: From Grade 1 All the Way to 12As I studied basic medical sciences as well as advanced biology, I became fascinated by how it governs everything around us. Therefore, my goal is to facilitate the subject to my students so they can see how truly interesting science is.

Biology Classes for IB, IGCSE, MYP and university studentsI have worked for 5 years now with kids from international schools helping them in subjects such as maths and biology.
We always find the best suiting way to approach the subject together; I have indeed a few teaching methods that can be adapted to a kids' needs, I believe every kid needs a different method to fully understand the subject.
I provide 2 types of lessons that represent 2 phases:
1. THEORY - Understanding the theory repeating together each unit.
2. PAST PAPERS - Going through past papers to "simulate" a potential exam.
Dividing the process in 2 phases has proven really effective in succeeding not only during the year but also at the final exams.
