Sahira

I am a dedicated and experienced science educator with a strong background in teaching both GCSE Chemistry and Biology. Over the years, I have successfully supported a diverse range of students in understanding and excelling in these core sciences, delivering engaging and curriculum-aligned lessons that foster both academic achievement and a genuine interest in science.

In Chemistry, I cover key areas such as atomic structure, bonding, chemical reactions, and environmental chemistry, using practical demonstrations, visual aids, and real-life examples to help students make meaningful connections with the material. Similarly, in Biology, I guide students through essential topics like cell biology, human physiology, genetics, ecology, and evolution, ensuring content is accessible and memorable through interactive activities and inquiry-based learning.

I am highly familiar with the expectations and assessment criteria of leading UK exam boards including AQA and Edexcel. My approach incorporates regular low-stakes testing, revision strategies, and personalized feedback, helping students develop both subject mastery and exam confidence.

Equally comfortable working with high-achieving learners and those who need extra support, I adapt my teaching to suit varied learning styles and needs. I strive to create an inclusive, supportive, and stimulating environment where all students feel encouraged to ask questions, think critically, and take ownership of their learning.

Passionate about science and its role in everyday life, I aim not only to prepare students for exams, but also to inspire curiosity and a lasting appreciation for the natural world.
