Hannah

I am a patient, friendly and enthusiastic tutor. I come from an academic background (Molecular biology, biochemistry and genetics) rather than teaching and as such, have a thorough and extensive knowledge of the subjects I tutor in. I enjoy sharing my enthusiasm with others and I`m also good at explaining some of the more complex elements of biology and chemistry.

When I am not teaching, I enjoy cooking, swimming, playing tennis, walking my dog and watching Hull City!

Availability: I AM CURRENTLY FULLY BOOKED FOR THIS ACADEMIC YEAR, BUT TAKING BOOKINGS FOR SUMMER 2022 ONWARDS.

Willing to travel: Home Only

Experience: I have been a full-time Private Tutor for 15 years, mainly in Biology at A-level, but also GCSE Biology and Chemistry. I am more than happy to accept students of all abilities and endeavour to assist tutees in reaching their full potential, whether they need an A* for Oxbridge/Medicine/Dentistry/Veterinary courses or just need a boost in confidence to reach their target grade.

My approach varies depending on the student as all have different needs and learning styles. For GCSE/A-level tuition, I usually concentrate on exam practice, with in-depth topic study for any problematic subjects. I also use multimedia aids to help students visualise biological/chemical processes where appropriate and I have created powerpoint files covering almost all A-level and GCSE Biology and Chemistry topics. I try to keep the sessions as relaxed and enjoyable as possible. I usually send students home with extra exam practice questions and will always be happy to mark these in my own time. I am also more than happy to assist with essay practice for A-level Biology and have a few different resources and tactics to use. I can also assist with the Maths skills essential for Biology and Chemistry.
