Information About Sarah - Sligo tutor

Personal Description:

An enthusiastic and dedicated Science, Biology and Chemistry teacher based in the Sligo area but would be willing to offer remote grinds also. I strongly believe that sometimes all a student needs is a little bit of 1-1 attention and a comfortable and open environment where they feel confident to ask questions. I would provide written notes and revision booklets and lots of exam question practice!

Tutoring Experience:

Currently teaching Science and senior biology in Mercy college.
Full year teaching science, senior chemistry and biology higher and ordinary level in Scoil Mhuire.
Junior science and senior chemistry in St.Joseph’s secondary school as a part of final year training
Junior cycle science in Moyne college as a part of college training.
Micro teaching in UL university with groups of 5-6 second level students.
Voluntary grinds to Junior cycle students on the UL campus as a part of the presidents award.

Approach to Grinds:

I want to make grinds engaging and interactive. I want to create an open atmosphere where any question can be asked comfortably. I recall the areas of difficulty when I was studying so I will emphasise on those areas if needed, At the beginning of each grind I will ask what area the students feels they have questions about/want to focus on. I will also provide comprehensive and concise notes for each topic covered. I can offer an exam focused approach with lots of exam question practice. I would use exam questions at the beginning of the grind to assess last weeks learning.
