PhD in Cellular Biology
Hello! I am Dr. Warren Burns, and when it comes to mastering biology and acing entrance exams, consider me your secret weapon. With a Ph.D. in Cellular Biology and teaching experience, I can teach any biology topic. When I’m not busy shaping the future of young biologists, I am a cyclist and a volunteer at a local conservation organisation. This is where I incorporate my love for life sciences into positive impacts on our environment. I’ve gone through tough academia myself, so I’m more than a tutor. I'm a mentor who knows the tricks needed to succeed at the highest levels.
My tutoring approach is about helping students understand the concept and tell them the exact key points to ace the exam. In my view, A-levels play a very important role in shaping your career. Hence, I make sure my students score high, so they have an open choice of the university and degree they want to select. Therefore, I prefer to stay focused on the content. Additionally, I use "Concept Clarification Carousel", a dialogue-based technique in which we dive into each topic, until it's crystal clear. I provide constructive, focused feedback. Another method I use is 'Power of Precision', where we edit your responses to be impactful, mirroring the quality that examiners are searching for.Are you ready to excel? Let’s start!
A fantastic tutor who has a real knack for making topics understandable. I look forward to biology sessions every week. He has such a great personality, punctuality, and every other good quality that will get an A-level student score a shining A. Not only will Warren answer any question you have about biology, he will also provide you some extra knowledge. Overall, Warren is a top-tier tutor! I couldn't have asked for more!
Dr. Burns is a great tutor, but sessions often run over time, which sometimes conflicts with my schedule.
Not only does this tutor know biology inside out, but he also knows how to connect with students on a personal level. It's clear he genuinely cares about students' success.
Ph.D. in Molecular Genetics
I am an established Biology teacher with over 21 years of experience teaching GCSE and A-level Biology in secondary schools. Currently serving as the head of the Biology department in a reputable secondary school, I have extensive experience with the examination boards of A-levels. I have successfully taught students who have gained admission to top universities to study medical sciences. Moreover, I regularly rank as one of the best-performing teachers in the school for exam grades.
I design bespoke learning plans that focus on what each student needs to achieve the best grade possible. My lessons are both effective in content delivery, and enjoyable for students. I utilize modern teaching strategies such as Flipped Classroom, Inquiry-Based Learning, and Blended Learning to engage students and deepen their understanding. I have developed a range of teaching and revision strategies. I maintain a professional yet friendly demeanor with students.
Hudson has totally changed the way I see Biology. His explanations are clear, and he’s always ready to go the extra mile when I’m stuck on something. I couldn’t ask for a better tutor, and I feel so relaxed in his presence.
Great tutor! Mr. Wright has helped me improve vastly. A bit more focus on exam technique would make it perfect.
Aced my test, thanks to Hudson! Now I hope I show good results in the A-level exam as well.
Ph.D. in Biochemistry
I’m Jasper, and for 16 years, I have been a mentor for many biology students, helping them secure places at some of the world’s most competitive universities. I’m proud to say that under my guidance, countless students have achieved high grades in their courses. My services aren't limited to subject-specific tutoring. They extend to personal statement reviews, interview preparations, and BMAT courses.
When you're learning with me, it’s not a lecture, but a conversation. I urge my students to question and challenge concepts because this approach makes the sessions practical. Moreover, I make science relatable. I often use real-world examples and scenarios to simplify topics, due the power of a well-placed analogy. I’m also aware of the pressures that come with studies, and I maintain a light environment during our sessions. I’m convinced that a relaxed mind is more receptive to learning. Let’s discuss and figure out how we can get your exam scores even higher!
Great tutor, but sometimes it feels a bit rushed, especially when we’re covering new material.
Wow, Dr. Jasper just gets it. He has turned my C’s into A’s. He's a miracle worker. Jasper is ready, articulate, and knowledgeable about every concept in biology. There is no textbook content, lab experiment, and research he doesn’t know how to teach! Jasper is always on time and communicates during the session to make sure that the material is understood. He sends slides after the class and will even send prep material like a youtube video before our lesson. Jasper is the reason I am doing better on exams. I wish I had found him sooner!
Dr. Willson clearly knows Biology, but I felt like just another student to him. I was hoping for a more personal approach.
Ph.D. in Biotechnology
Greetings! I’m Poppy Jackson. With a vibrant 16-year career in education and a Ph.D. in Biotechnology, I am the seasoned teacher you’ve been searching for. I blend art and modern-day technology in my lessons to make them more relatable to the sharp Gen-Z minds. Ever used the concept of musical rhythm to understand metabolic pathways? With me, you will. It’s this rare combination of my interests and profession that keeps my teaching lively.
Enter my lesson, and you’re stepping into what I like to call the ‘Learning Laboratory.’ I use colourful sketches and diagrams, which we draw together, to understand biological concepts. For instance, drawing the human circulatory system as a city map with highways, local streets, and hubs. Next, we plant the 'seeds' of fundamental concepts, ‘water’ them with practice, and 'prune' confusions through discussion and feedback. I also use the "Stargazer’s Reflection", a method where we take a step back, and reflect on the ‘bigger picture’ of what we’re learning. No rushing through topics. We’ll move at a pace where understanding deepens, curiosity grows, and confidence blooms.Are you ready to explore Biology with me, where learning feels less like a chore and more like an adventure? Let’s start!
I was struggling with A-level Biology, but since I started working with Dr. Jackson, my grades have improved. The patience and personalised approach is commendable.
Thanks for helping me get my first A in Biology!
I like her teaching method, but sometimes the pace is too slow for me
PhD in Marine Biology
In the 16 years I've been teaching, my educational contributions have evolved. With a PhD in Marine Biology, I’m familiar with the aquatic world. I have contributed to curriculum development, making sure that the content is in line with modern research. I believe my hands-on experience with the A-level curriculum will greatly benefit students.
Biology isn’t just limited to textbooks. I prioritize the real-world application of every concept, helping students visualize and know the bigger implications of their studies. Connecting theory with real-world scenarios makes the subject interesting and prepares students to solve problems in their higher studies. Moreover, when it comes to syllabus coverage, I've devised a strategy that guarantees no topic is rushed or overlooked. By systematically breaking down the A-level curriculum, I make sure that students grasp every topic while also having time for revision.
Miss Katrina is such a fun teacher who I’ve had the pleasure of studying with. She has improved my A-level grades. As a student who has tried out many tutors, I can definitely say that Katrina is a high quality teacher. When she says that her sessions are interactive, you better believe her! As opposed to other tutors, she regularly asks questions on the content to guarantee you’re actually understanding it. What I really like about her is that after teaching a topic, she asks you to explain the whole process back to her, to consolidate what you have learnt, notice mistakes in your concepts, and make it easier to remember. This active recall in her sessions is something that many teachers these days lack. Only after having a few sessions with Katrina, I’m already feeling much more prepared, and the subject is less daunting now.
Katrina is always on time, a joy to study such a boring subject with, and extremely knowledgeable.
Msc in Biology
With a cup of tea in one hand and a marker in the other, I guide my pupils through the pathways of biology, making stops at the wonders of the cell, the mysteries of DNA, and the marvels of ecosystems. My students often tell me they can hear the passion in my voice, and it’s true. I live for those moments when a challenging concept suddenly clicks, and their faces light up. And in this process, I’ve not only taught, but learned so much about patience, empathy, and the learning styles that each student brings to the table.
As a biologist, I believe that the best learning happens when students are as excited about the subject as I am. That’s why I start each lesson with a real-world question or problem. This invites my students to think critically. Whether it’s discussing the ethical implications of genetic engineering or exploring the ecosystems in their own backyards, I make Biology personally meaningful for my students. Interactive and hands-on activities are a must in my teaching approach. I love taking my students on nature walks to observe local flora & fauna or guiding them through dissections in a lab setting. These experiences are when the abstract concepts suddenly become real.
Tahlia is a phenomenal tutor. Highly recommended!
Tahlia is more than a tutor; she’s a mentor. She genuinely cares about her students and goes above and beyond to ensure we not only understand the material, but also enjoy it. Tahlia is very knowledgeable and detailed. She knows how to keep me engaged and customizes the teaching way which works for me. I highly recommend Tahlia for any student for biology lessons.
Tahlia's use of interactive models is fantastic. She is clearly passionate about biology, and it shows in her teaching. Very knowledgeable, knows what topics to focus on, and explains difficult concepts in a plain manner. She is approachable and clears confusions patiently.
Ph.D. in Molecular Biology
With a rich experience of 5 years in the educational field, I have been guiding A-level students toward their dreams. After completing my graduation, I decided to give back to the community that created my own love for science. Over the years, I have worked in various educational settings, from traditional classrooms in high schools to one-on-one tutoring sessions. My students have consistently shown remarkable improvements, not only in their grades, but also in their approach to scientific inquiry.
My belief is that understanding is more valuable than memorization. In each lesson, I create an interactive environment where students feel comfortable expressing their ideas and asking questions. I employ a variety of teaching methods, from discussions and hands-on experiments to detailed representations. I constantly update my teaching materials to include the most recent scientific developments, and I encourage my students to relate what they learn in the classroom to the world around them. My ultimate goal is to inspire a love of learning in my students, just as my own teachers did for me.
Evie’s teaching approach is unparalleled. She uses science models and experiments that make complex concepts come alive. I’ve never been more excited to learn biology! After taking her sessions, I have realized that biology is never meant to be learnt through textbook alone. If you’re tired of learning biology in the old way, try Evie!
Evie is clearly passionate about biology, but her teaching pace can be a bit overwhelming for me.
Evie is very attentive and adapts her teaching style to suit me. I would have loved a bit more focus on exam techniques. But no one can deny her subject coverage skills.
MSc in Biology
Hi, I’m Vicki. My expertise has been particularly beneficial for students aiming for Medicine entrance exams. I’ve also taught A-level pupils over the years. My experience is broad and varied, consisting of one-on-one sessions, group tutoring, and online lessons. In short, I can teach anywhere.
My tutoring approach is designed to be as effective as it is compassionate. I place a strong importance on exam technique, making sure that students are well-prepared to ace their assessments with confidence. This is complemented by a thorough insight of the curriculum. I also create a comfortable environment. My sessions are a space where students feel completely at ease to express their thoughts and voice their challenges.
Our son used to dread Biology, but Vicki has turned that all around. He now talks about DNA over dinner! Amazing transformation.
Vicki is fantastic, but the amount of homework can be a bit overwhelming with my other subjects.
Before Ms.Vicki, Biology was like reading a different language. Now, it’s my favorite subject. She makes learning genuinely fun and engaging! Vicki helped me review topics in depth and has very good study materials for each session. She is also great at communication.
Mphil in Microbiology
In the four years since I earned my MPhil in Microbiology, I’ve found that tutoring is my dream job. I’ve worked with a wide range of students, from those just dipping their toes into the world of Biology to those preparing for university-level studies. My MPhil background allows me to bring a deeper layer of understanding to my lessons. I can share not just the ‘what’ but the ‘why’ and the ‘how’ of microbial interactions, and I love seeing my student’s eyes light up when they grasp these concepts.
In my biology classes, I believe in the power of visualization. I prefer using science models to explain the microscopic world. Whether it’s a 3D-printed double helix of DNA, a detailed cell model, or fun digital simulations, I use such tools to explain tough concepts. One of my favorites is the "EcoSphere," a closed aquatic ecosystem model that allows students to observe real-life interactions between organisms. I also frequently incorporate "BioMania," a set of engaging and educational games that reinforce key concepts.
Mr Tim is an exceptional tutor who brings biology to life in the most engaging ways. His use of models and tools makes topics easy to understand. I couldn't have asked for a better guide through the world of biology! Every session is so fun and productive.
Finnegan is a great tutor, very knowledgeable, and patient. I just wish we had more time to cover additional topics in each session.
He uses great teaching tools, but I wish he would stick more to the syllabus during our sessions.
