Hi I'm a biomedical scientist with 7 years of private tuition/teaching experience for ages 8-18. All my lovely students have excelled in their exams but my first priority was to positively change their approach to maths and science...

I'm completely flexible in my teaching methods and focus on my student as an individual, tailoring their course to their learning style and pace, until they gain enough confidence and understanding of content to begin exam skills practice.

I believe education should not be a one way system of learn and recall, but a comfortable environment where a student can gain confidence in their learning style and can genuinely understand the material they are engaging with. Many students begin with a robotic fear-driven approach to science and maths. I deeply enjoy changing this into that "oh I get it!" feeling, until those subjects are loved not feared.

Teaching summary: grounded understanding of the topic as a whole and how it relates to real life. This helps the student care about the subject, have a deeper understanding rather than simple learn and recall, and increase curiosity and enjoyment--> build depth with detailed questioning and answers slowly through each topic using specific terms and formatting required by examiners --> test understanding and gain confidence--> exam and mark scheme techniques--> exams! (No stress, they'll feel like one of our practice papers!)

Give me a ring or WhatsApp me on and Let's smash STEM!

Fees: Online £35/hr GCSE and National 5 preparation
Online £25/hr any younger level for all subjects

I can do in person lessons in Edinburgh but I am rarely available for this and the fee is £40/hr GCSE and National 5, and £30/hr younger level.
First lesson free! I use this session to understand my lovely students and the level they're at and how I can tailor their learning experience for optimum comfort, confidence, and results.

She saved my daughter's GCSEs!!! Thank you Gen. She has immense knowledge on all subjects. My daughter did all the sciences and maths and never told gen what she wanted each day it would be "can we do chemistry.." or "can we do maths" and whatever it was, gen was prepared to teach her in depth and give her time generously and carefully. She cared about my daughter's understanding and happiness more than her time.

Gen is such a wonderful Tutor. She is one of those that genuinely cares for her pupils and so passionate about what she does. She is an excellent Tutor and facilitator that inspires children into wanting to know more about science! I highly recommend.
