I’m a big believer in an interactive learning environment. We will work together to improve your working understanding of biology - Questions are not just welcome, they are encouraged!
A typical first session will involve a quick chat about your goals for our sessions, time to plan any topics you are struggling with so I can put together a personalised plan for upcoming sessions. Then straight into it, our sessions will be full of interactive bits with a heavy weight on past questions. The best way to understand is to learn through the application of your knowledge.
Don’t worry if there are concepts you find particularly difficult, we can take it at the students speed and try different routes to improve your understanding! My lessons are very student focused and can adapt to their varying needs.
Depending on the students method of learning I can run sessions as either a mini lecture followed by discussion, fully discussion based, the student could lead a section, past question based. Ultimately I am very flexible to each students needs and will happily tailor my sessions to get the best out of the student.
I have a background in medicine; currently working towards my BMBS. I studied biology, chemistry and psychology to A-level. I’m a very experienced learner - which I believe makes me a very understanding tutor. I understand what makes a good educator and I’m passionate about teaching and mentoring. I have previously worked with children of all ages providing educational sessions on basic biology, medicine and various other scientific concepts. I loved every moment of it and I am passionate to continue tutoring!
Due to the fact I am still studying I would prefer to run out sessions online. I spend a lot of time in hospital on various placements so virtual would work best for me. Don’t worry - I’m the covid year group - so I am very well versed in working virtually, sessions will be just as interactive as they would be in person.
