I have also completed a BSc with a year in industry at the University of Surrey studying Biochemistry, achieving a 2:1, and have since gone into clinical research. In the year since graduating, I have one published paper, and three on pre-print servers, with more due to be released soon. My year in industry involved teaching for years 7-13, as well as being responsible for summer research students for those interested in undertaking medicine as a potential career.
I am fun and dedicated, and able to understand the problems in which students go through in the process of learning, and I am able to help them with subjects that I believe I am strong enough at to improve their confidence with the subjects. I have been tutoring for over 3 years now, helping many students using this platform as well as from word of mouth, (over 15 students) all of which have boosted both their grades and confidence in their subjects, in addition to their critical analysis, problem solving and reasoning.

Melissa is an outstanding Mathematics tutor. Melissa showed care, patience and skill as she supported my daughter to achieve a good Mathematics GCSE pass in 2023. I have no doubt that Melissa`s skilful input had a significant impact on the Mathematics grade that my daughter achieved. I would absolutely recommend Melissa as a tutor, and would not hesitate to use her excellent services again.

Melissa has helped me so much with my gcse chemistry, I was really struggling with it and in about half a year she caught me up on everything and went through everything in detail. My grades have gone up and now I can do triple science too and have a good understanding of the curriculum. Melissa was very understanding when I didnt understand something and really helped with my confidence in the subject.
