Julie

I am very passionate about science and in particular, Chemistry and Biology. I hold a degree with honours in Biochemistry, a graduate diploma in Chemistry and was awarded a certificate of excellence in Biosciences. I have a wealth of experience in teaching years 9-12 through my work at Liverpool John Moores university, as a Student Advocate and various schools. I have excellent knowledge of the current curriculum so you can be assured that the topics you are studying are relevant. I have tutored various students during my degree and postgraduate study and the feedback I have received has been extremely positive. I now tutor full time and pride myself on having a good sense of humour which I believe is essential to enjoying the subject of science.
My aim is to help you to expand practical, problem solving and enquiry skills enabling you to develop a critical approach to scientific evidence and methods in line with programme of study for the national curriculum. I will also help you to gain the knowledge and understanding of how physics, chemistry and biology are important within the field of science and its role in society.

Availability:
I am now offering 20 minute sessions for £10 if you don’t want to pay for a regular tutor or don’t need the full hour. During these sessions I will focus on how to approach exam questions and then set the student a topic workbook to complete which includes past paper questions, exam style questions and last minute revision questions. A fully illustrated mark scheme is provided with these workbooks with lots of hints and tips for you to mark yourself. I will then go over the questions you struggled with during the 20 minute session. Workbooks will be emailed to you to print or posted to you at a cost of £2. My students have found these workbooks invaluable for the revision.

Sessions will held in the evening.
