Susan

I have over 20 years experience working in the science field as a researcher, teacher and exam marker. I am passionate about my subject and enjoy passing on this enthusiasm and drive to the students I teach. I have spent 18 years in academia, publishing my work (three papers published in 2017, 2018 and another in 2022). I have ongoing links with local universities and can offer advice and support to prepare students for university life. I can provide guidance with my students UCAS applications, covering letters, interview skills and CV writing. I have 6 years experience marking the new A level specification.

Availability: I am available during the week days and in the evenings. I am also available part of the weekend.

Willing to travel: 15 miles

Experience: I am qualified to teach both biology and chemistry from GCSE to A level. I have 4 years experience working in a secondary school where I have taught pupils in the age range 11-19. I have worked with mixed ability classes, highly able pupils and SEN students. I have been a private tutor for 11 years and have adapted well to the changes in the curriculum from each of the exam boards and have numerous resources to support my students. This year I am very proud of all my students who have once again excelled in their exams achieving above and beyond their target grades. My GCSE students have done exceptionally well with the new science curriculum and all have improved significantly from their mock results receiving results which range between 5-9 inclusive. All students who took the foundation combined science paper received levels 5-5 and levels ranged between 6-9 for the higher separate science papers. My AQA and OCR A level students all achieved the required grades to enter their first choice university (gaining A*~C grades in biology and chemistry). I have experience teaching the current OCR, Ed excel and AQA specifications. I also teach the International Baccalaureate exam qualifications at higher and standard levels.
