Sophie

Hello! I’m Sophie, a Bristol based Science and TEFL tutor. I am passionate about biology and aim to improve students’ grades by providing them with a better understanding of the subject using interactive tools to help them retain core knowledge, application of biological concepts and exam strategies. I specialise in Biology (up to A level) and am happy to help where I can with GCSE Chemistry & Physics.

I obtained a degree in Zoology from University of Nottingham, and A levels in Biology, Chemistry & Physics. I have classroom teaching experience through a TEFL qualification and have taught a wide range of ages and abilities, adapting my teaching style accordingly.

I have a friendly approach to teaching which puts students at ease. I am a dedicated teacher who aims to engage and share a passion for science. I am more than happy to help with anything from building confidence to perfecting exam technique.

Availability: Available mornings, evenings and weekends.

Willing to travel: 3 miles

Experience: MARCH 2019 - OCTOBER 2019
Teaching English to Vietnamese students of all ages and abilities, from kindergarten to advanced adults, with a focus on preparing them for their IELTS (International English Language Testing System) speaking exams. Teaching abroad has provided me with invaluable creative, organisational, and communication skills. I’ve also needed to be highly adaptable, developing many different content formats to suit a range of abilities and concentration levels.
