I am a professional and friendly private tutor with extensive experience working with some of the top agencies in London & Surrey.

In my four years as a tutor, I have helped a great many struggling students overcome a lack of confidence and surpass their own expectations on results day. I`ve also helped disinterested students find their own personal motivations and combined these with exam board requirements to ensure academic success as well as personal fulfilment.

Please see the below `Experience` section for subject-specific descri ptions of my approach.

Experience: *** Biology ***

Biology is one of the most fascinating and complex subjects in the curriculum, covering a tremendous array of topics and ideas. The curriculum is so broad in fact that every student I have tutored has experienced difficulty at some point.

It is often the case that students who have a natural ability for understanding scientific vocabulary struggle to really grasp the underlying mechanisms, while those that do understand those processes often miss marks due to a problem communicating their ideas in a scientific way.

When tutoring Biology, I use a conversational and visual method which allows my students to get a clear idea of exactly how the mechanisms of life work. Once this is in place, the students find it easier to write about the practical investigations they complete as part of the syllabus. They also feel much more confident when it comes to using the correct terminology, and begin to think ahead of the work they complete in class instead of feeling like they are constantly behind.
