I’m a highly trained cancer researcher with advanced Biology knowledge developed over more than 8 years of academic and hands-on experience — including a BSc in Biology, MSc in Molecular Genetics and Biomedicine, and a PhD in Cancer Sciences.

I currently work at the University of Oxford, where I apply the very concepts taught in A-Level Biology to real-world cancer research. Now, I’m excited to help students understand and enjoy Biology through structured, focused tutoring.

In our sessions, I use a hybrid approach:
• Clear explanations of concepts you’re struggling with
• Hands-on practice with past paper questions
• Engaging slides, animations, and videos to support learning
• Guidance on how to break down complex exam questions and write full-mark answers

If you want to learn from someone with a deep, applied understanding of Biology, and who knows what it takes to succeed academically, get in touch — let’s get to work!

During my A-levels, I struggled with topics like protein synthesis and the cell cycle. Pedro made them so easy to understand and put in a lot of effort to find challenging questions that really made me think. His approach helped me not just memorise the content, but truly understand it and apply the theory to real exam-style questions. Pedro is demanding, but the results are absolutely worth it. I totally recommend him!
