I am a firm believer in students exploring what learning methods work best for them. I specialise in producing visual aids for lessons, and encourage a creative approach to learning.
I offer online lessons at present, and would consider students from across Scotland. I plan to relocate to Dundee in the New Year, and would begin offering in-person lessons to the local area then.

I am a firm believer in students exploring what learning methods work best for them. I specialise in producing visual aids for lessons, and encourage a creative approach to learning.
I offer online lessons at present, and would consider students from across Scotland. I plan to relocate to Dundee in the New Year, and would begin offering in-person lessons to the local area then.
Online lessons can consist of information presented via PowerPoint, discussion of the material and approaching it from a different angle in the form of placing Biology into a real-world context. I am also able to provide work to study outside of sessions, and discussion of this work in-session.
I specialise in the Scottish curriculum, and am open to students studying National 5 Biology, Higher Biology, and Higher Human Biology. I am also open to students and more advanced levels of education, such as college or University, and would specialise in molecular biology.
I believe the most important aspect of assisting a student in their education is the passion of the teacher and the commitment of the student, and want lessons to be a conversation. I firmly believe this is the best atmosphere for learning.
Having only been diagnosed with Neurodiversity as an adult, I also have an understanding of the issues faced by Neurodivergent pupils in an educational setting, and how much harder they have to work than their peers to achieve. I also understand the toll stress can take on performance, and want students to feel confident in the material we are covering.
