My lessons will be friendly, engaging and tailored to each student's individual needs and ability. Having developed a strong interest in Biology from a young age, I understand the importance of making difficult topics interesting and easy to understand. I will use clear explanations, diagrams, examples and exam-style questions to help students develop both their knowledge and their confidence.

My academic background allows me to cover a wide range of A-Level Biology topics, particularly genetics, genomics, biological psychology, human biology and biotechnology. I achieved an A in A-Level Biology and am currently studying Biomedicine at Lancaster University, having achieved a 2:1 in my first year of Biology. I therefore understand the transition from A-Level to university-level science and the importance of developing a strong understanding rather than simply memorising information.

I also aim to make lessons interactive. We can work through challenging questions together, identify areas that need improvement and practise applying knowledge to unfamiliar situations. My experience with presentations, LAMDA Bronze Acting (Distinction) and helping at a children's science club has developed my ability to communicate scientific ideas clearly and confidently.

Ultimately, I want students to feel more confident in Biology while making measurable progress towards their target grades.
