Online Biology and Entrance Exams Tuition

I have 20 years of teaching A level Biology, and the examination results, where I taught for twenty years, were rated 'outstanding' by Ofsted. I was Head of Science at an 'outstanding' sixth form college in SE of England.
The achievement and attainment for the students whom I teach A level Biology are excellent.
I have managed twelve A level science teachers and we had over 500 students studying Biology, Chemistry and Physics A level.
Please read the feedback given from the parents of tutee's whom I have tutored in the past - this will appear under 'old' feedback as I have only just made my account active again on this site.
You may wish your son/ daughter to get a head start in advance of their first year in Biology A level (Y12) or prepare in the second year for their upcoming exams.
Otherwise, you may wish to gain help in your son/ daughter's Medicine / Dentistry application (see below).

Tutoring Experience

Highly experienced teacher of Biology, particularly at A level. Over 20 years' experience.
I have taught all exam boards at A level.
I can offer help with Medicine/ Dentistry personal statements, BMAT, UCAT and interviews. I offer help with MMIs and the more traditional Medicine / Dentistry interviews.

Tutoring Approach

I adopt a result focused approach.
I explain difficult concepts and set a lot of examination questions for HW.
Many of my past tutees were medicine applicants (I help with UKCAT, BMAT, interview techniques & personal statement writing), and all were successful at gaining offers to places at Medical, Dentistry and Vet Med schools.
I will tutor Biology A level irrespective of my tutees' career aspirations.
