Information about Giancarlo
I am an experienced biophysicist with great enthusiasm for academic research, science and education. Throughout my 12-years career, I produced thought-provoking research on multiple scientific toipic, and, most importantly, contributed to the education of hundreds of students in two of the most prestigious academic institutions worldwide.
I hold a BSc in Biomolecular Sciences (UniPi, Italy), a MSc in Cell and Molecular Biology (UniPi, Italy), and a PhD in Biochemistry and Biophysics (KCL, UK). I currently work as a senior postdoctoral research associate at University College London, where I carry out my research on proteins involved in cancer progression and teach to 3rd and 4th year students of the MSci in Biochemitry.
My tutoring expertise is in biological sciences, chemistry, and mathematics applied to biology.
I was raised bilingual (Italian and Sardinian), so I also offer tutoring in Italian language, grammar, and literature.
Availability: Monday to Saturday
Willing to travel: 8 miles
Experience: I have been tutoring high school and university students since 2007.
Since 2019, I have been giving lectures to 3rd and 4th year M.Sci. in Biochemistry at University College London (top ten in University rankings), using conventional lecturing and Team Blended Learning format sessions.
From 2013 to 2018, I carried out lab and theoretical demonstrations to large groups of students from different courses (Medicine, Dentistry, Biochemistry, Chemistry), as graduate teaching assistant at Kings College London (top 50 in University rankings).
I have extensive experience in 1-to-1 training of numerous B.Sc., M.Sci., and Ph.D students. Most of my students acheived positions in high profile universities and istitutions, such as University of Edinburgh, Cornell University, UCL, KCL, University of Chicago, just to mention some. My pedagogic approach entails coaching (following the guidelines of Harding et al, Exploring the Impact of Coaching in Higher Education), and I do my best to improve the students experience and give a personal impact in their careers.
