Information about Rachael
An experienced tutor, teacher and examiner of A Level Biology.
Availability: Monday evenings, Wednesday afternoons
Willing to travel: Home Only
Experience: I have over 16 years experience tutoring and teaching A Level Biology in school and sixth form, in addition to over 15 years as an examiner for A Level Biology. I am currently employed part time at a highly regarded sixth form college and carry out private tuition alongside this from my home office and online.
I can inspire students of all levels to believe in their goals and aspirations and support their exceptional progress. I have supported many of the highest achievers in their journeys to obtaining A* grades and progressing to medicine, veterinary science and Oxbridge. I have also worked with students needing extra support in understanding the basic concepts, improving skills and exam technique required to improve their grades. I am able to form excellent working relationships with my students, encouraging resilience and passing on my enthusiasm and love of the living world.
Sessions are targeted to the tutees particular needs as identified by diagnostic assessments. I use a variety of activities to work on any weaknesses including interactive quizzes, animations, exam question practice and study of marking schemes to improve exam technique. I can also work to improve study skills where necessary, such as improving organisational skills or helping with revision techniques.
Please feel free to contact me if you have any questions or queries.

My son has now been studying with Rachael for three weeks, so it`s still early days. However I have found her to be very professional, responsive to messages and very helpful. More importantly my son is finding studying with her very enjoyable and beneficial. I would happily recommend Rachael.

Rachael has really helped to improve my daughter`s confidence with exam technique. She is always organised and prepared and responds to her student`s needs. She is very friendly and makes you feel very welcome and relaxed. She works with my daughter to plan what topics to focus on, sets homework and varies her sessions between past paper questions and taught content. We are delighted with the support she has given and would highly recommend her to others. It really helps that she is an examiner for A level biology. I wish we had found her sooner!
