Information about Rhiannon

** I AM CURRENTLY FULLY BOOKED WITH NO AVAILABILITY UNTIL SEPTEMBER 2019**


In July 2018 I graduated with a Merit in Medicine from Oxford University, as such I am now a qualified Doctor/Medical Practioner. Prior to this I taught science and P.E in London for two years 2012-2104 (via the TeachFirst graduate scheme). I taught yr 7 - 13 (ages 11 - 18), all three sciences at GCSE and just Biology and Chemistry A/AS Level. Prior to that I did Biochemistry Undergraduate at Oxford University (2008 - 2012), and graduated with a 1st.

I loved teaching, so whilst studying medicine I still have part of that whilst I did my own studies now. Hence, tutoring seemed like the best harmony between continuing teaching and studying myself. Indeed, I tutored for the passed 3 years of whilst studying medicine, and absolutely loved in, and actually find it a lot more rewarding and enjoyable than traditional teaching!

Previous/current tutoring experience:
- I started tutoring via TutorHunt in Oxford the 2015, until July 2018.
- I tutored medical students at Oxford University, both through the collegiate system (academic medical principles) and also clinical medical students in the hospital (clinical /practical skills with patients).
-This, plus a background as a former teacher should mean I can help you/your child with any tutoring needs they may have.

I am looking to tutor:
- science KS3, GCSE and AS/A Level (i.e yr7 - 13 science)
- any part of the University medicine application process (i.e. UCAS personal statement, medicine entry exams, and interview preparation and mock interviews - all of which I has the lead teacher for during my 2 years teaching in London)
- Science mock oxbridge interviews.
- I am also very happy to help tutees with their science UCAS applications


In my spare time I play a lot of sport - I was formerly captain of the Oxford University Netball Club (OUNC) 2nds, and played for 3 years. I also love to travel, am very energetic, love trekking and climbing (recently I just got back from a month honeymoon in Africa - including climbing Kilimanjaro!)


Verification:
I have a CRB/DBS certificate valid for working with minors/in schools valid from September 2014 (and one for working within hospitals, as required by my course valid from September 2014)
I can bring/send a photo of my University student card if certification of my studies/place at Oxford is necessary
I can also bring/send a photo of my teacher training/qualification certificates.

Please just let me know if you`d like to see any/all of these.

Availability: **I am now fully booked for academic year 2018/2019**
I will have availability again in September 2019.

My availability:
Very Flexible. Any weekday after 3:30pm and anytime on weekends. I will try my hardest to ensure I work around your needs.

I am happy to tutor at a set time each week/fortnight, or if you`d rather, at a different time each week. Whatever works best for you and suits your needs the most.

Willing to travel: 10 miles

Experience:
**I AM FULLY BOOKED UNTIL SEPTEMBER 2019 WITH NO AVAILABILITY AT ALL***


I taught science for two years in London, yr 7 - 13 (ages 11 - 18), all three sciences at GCSE and just Biology and Chemistry A/AS Level. I taught OCR GCSE and AS/A level, but did AQA myself so this is where my areas of expertise would lie.

I have a Science PGCE (2013, distinction), Qualified Teacher Status (2013) and Newly Qualified Teacher Status (2014). I passed both years of teacher assessment as `Outstanding`. I did these qualifications via the TeachFirst graduate scheme at an inner city school in London.

I worked at a fully comprehensive school and as such I have taught an array of children from all different backgrounds, academic abilities (A/A* and also D/C) and special educational needs (e.g. dyslexia or autism).

In my two years teaching I had the same 2 GCSE classes: one middle set where target grades where B/A and one lower set where target grades where D/C. In the former we achieved 6 A*s and the rest As and in the latter 1 A, 5 Bs and the rest Cs. All pupils outdid their target grades making more than the government set `expected progress`.
I tutored our 1 `medical applicant` at my school, and worked with her closely particularly in the build up to interviews, organising a variety of mock interviews and potential questions. She was successful and now is at Imperial College London doing Medicine.

Friendly and really nice tutor. Rhiannon is flexible with setting up times for the lessons and her extensive knowledge in Chemistry is very useful in my son’s revision. We will not hesitate to ask Rhiannon for more lessons!

My daughter is really enjoying her tutor sessions with Rhiannon, they obviously work well together and my daughter`s confidence is now slowly building.
