An experienced tutor of GCSE and A-level Chemistry and Biology.

About Tutor

I am a greatly enthusiastic learner, currently at the beginning stages of a PhD in Molecular Cell & Systems Biology, following the completion of my Master's degree in Biomedical Science (MRes) and my Honour's degree in Biochemistry (BSc Hons). During my time in my undergraduate program, I was presented with numerous opportunities beyond my academic obligations; involving myself in publications in 2 University magazines for both creative writing and casual science. This work was supplemented by my own personal blog wherein my own pieces focusing on combining science with fantasy were self-published, as well as working with students as a tutor for both biology & chemistry at various levels. Beyond science, I also enjoy a wide array of creative hobbies; from digital art, to painting, to crochet, to knitting, to sewing, to creative writing. I try my best to utilise my creativity to make learning as approachable and interactive as possible, and I ensure I adapt to each student's learning style to ensure the lesson is delivered as effectively as possible.

Experience
I have experience tutoring classmates and colleagues on an informal basis, on topics key to my degree- including Biology, Chemistry. Additionally, my personal blog also has a section which caters to those that may be more unfamiliar with scientific language, with the aim of educating through a more fantastical medium. I have found that keeping discussions open and engaging leads to a far more enhanced learning environment- especially when relating the topic at hand to a real-life or even fantastical example. I like to ensure that whoever I am teaching has a thorough understanding of the lesson, both in mechanisms of action and nomenclature (as I am aware of how confusing scientific terms can get). I am willing to change my explanations and approaches on the fly to ensure the student gets the best possible learning experience.
