A-Levels Biology Tutors

A-level biology tutoring involves one-on-one or small-group instruction aimed at helping students comprehend the material covered in their A-level biology course. It is split into two parts, with one part studied each year. The first part is known as the Advanced Subsidiary level (AS level) in year 12. The second part is known as the A2 level in year 13. A-levels are essential for entry into higher education institutions and are widely recognized worldwide as a standard for academic achievement. A-level biology is typically taken by students preparing for university or a career in science. Throughout this period, students study various topics, including molecular biology, genetics, anatomy, ecology, and evolution. A-level biology tutoring aims to enhance students' comprehension of these subjects, aid them in exam preparation, and foster critical thinking and problem-solving skills. Tutors employ various teaching methods such as lectures, discussions, activities, and practice exams to help students achieve their academic goals.

Hello! I'm Tom King, an enthusiastic A-levels teacher with 4 years of rewarding experience. I have an MSc in Botany, which I earned with high honors. This means I've got the in-depth knowledge to back up my teaching. Whether it’s showcasing the biology of local bird species or explaining topics through the lens of my outdoor experiences, I make learning as vivid as a walk through a forest. I have helped many students improve their grades and develop a genuine interest in science. If you want the same to happen to you, book a trial session with me to see my skills.

Tutoring Approach

When it comes to teaching, I believe every student is unique. One method I use is Contextual Learning. I connect difficult concepts to real-world applications, making theories relatable. Ever watched a pot of water boil and wondered about the science behind it? I’m here to guide you through these everyday phenomena, using them to break down scientific concepts. Moreover, I focus a lot on revisions to help with topic retention. For this purpose, I use Interactive Revision Technique, where I urge students to teach a topic back to me. Unlike many other tutors, I’m a believer in the power of positive reinforcement and always celebrate the 'small wins' with my students. This helps to build a motivating and stress-free learning environment.

Hello, I'm Maxine Young, your dedicated guide through the world of Biology. My experience is in hands-on work in research settings. I don't just teach Biology. I live and breathe it, continually updating my knowledge with the latest scientific research to guarantee you learn the most current and relevant material.

Tutoring Approach

Learning should be fun, productive, and adjusted to you. That's exactly the experience I provide! Are you a visual learner or more into hands-on experiments? No worries, we'll find the approach that works for you.To keep things fresh, I add modern teaching technologies into our sessions. For instance, I love using platforms like Kahoot! for lively quizzes, and Edpuzzle for adding questions into videos. It’s a great way to learn and test knowledge simultaneously. I’m also a fan of virtual labs and simulations, such as the ones offered by The Biology Project or HHMI Biointeractive, to bring the thrill of experiments right to your screen. Learning biology with me means cells will come to life, DNA will open before your eyes, and ecology is more than just a chapter in a textbook.

Maxine is patient, encouraging, and so knowledgeable. She takes the time to understand my learning style and prepares the lessons just for me. I have never received such bespoke treatment. It makes me want to make her proud by studying hard. Thanks a bunch!

Patterson

Maxine is wonderful, and her passion for Biology is undeniable. Her grasp of the subject is simply impressive, so is her ability to convey concepts in a straightforward manner. Maxine helped me with my last A-level examinations. She is also really patient and empathetic. Maxine is always willing to answer my concerns and address any weaknesses where I am struggling. She does it in a way that is helpful and encouraging. Overall, I would give Maxine a five-star rating!

Graham

Levi is awesome, but we had a few scheduling mix-ups, which was inconvenient for me.

Griffin

Levi has been a godsend for me. His depth of knowledge and teaching style has transformed my view on Biology. I’m not just passing exams, but genuinely loving the subject!

Rex

Levi's use of scientific models is fantastic. He is clearly passionate about biology, and it shows in his teaching. Levi is very dedicated to teaching. I always find him patient and calm. His teaching style is quite supportive and smooth. Very professional and supportive tutor for sure. His slides and other study materials are also included in learning. He was also willing to give me more time after lessons. I will continue learning biology with Levi.
