I am a Cambridge graduate with a M.phil from Sheffield University. I currently work as an A level biology exam paper writer and examiner and so can offer extensive advice on exam technique and the best approaches to answering questions. I am an experienced teacher and have taught all of the major examining body specifications. I have taught students at all levels of ability and many of these have scored A*s and gone on to Oxbridge or Russell group universities.
I have taught in schools and colleges for over 13 years, and have been Head of Biology at a large international school. I was also in charge of guiding potential medical students through their college interview process. Before this, I worked full time as a private tutor for 7 years which I enjoyed immensely. I enjoy the challenges and the emotional rewards of working with students to help them achieve their best possible grades in biology.
Over the course of my teaching and tutoring I have built up a large resource of challenging and informative past paper questions and have many approaches to teaching difficult subjects.
I am enthusiastic and patient and have been told that I offer a friendly and safe learning environment where students feel supported, but also motivated and challenged to improve both their understanding and grades.
