Why choose me as your tutor?
I have a wide range of experience in the field of education:
- Graduated with a Merit in PGCE Science from University of Oxford in 2019, qualifying as a teacher 👩🏼🏫
- Full-time teacher of KS3 and GCSE Science for two years, then part-time teacher of A Level Biology for a year
- Taught at an international school in Budapest for a year, gaining iGCSE and international A Level experience
- Currently working as Teacher of Biology at a top Sheffield private school 🏫
- Helped 100s of students just like you in my various roles to achieve the grades needed for their next steps!
What to expect from our sessions?
✔️ No two sessions are the same - I adapt to students' individual needs and requirements.
✔️ Continuous, personalised feedback to plug in gaps in students' knowledge and skills
✔️ All revision resources (notes, exam questions etc.) provided
❌ No boring, lecture-style teaching - I keep up-to-date with latest educational research and strive to make sure sessions are not just useful, but also engaging!
❌ No interrogation-style 1-to-1 tuition, where you're bombarded with questions for an hour. I want you to be comfortable in our sessions, asking and answering questions freely, not feeling like you're on trial!
❌ No 'death by PowerPoint' - I use my iPad and Apple Pencil to annotate exam questions, draw diagrams and teach in a dynamic way!
I am a passionate educator with an excellent academic background and a knack for breaking down difficult concepts into easy-to-understand chunks. My favourite thing in the world is experiencing those lightbulb moments with my students! 💡
I also enjoy a cheesy joke or two and love to make sessions engaging (and sometimes maybe even fun!).
