First lesson free!
I tutor in Biology or Chemistry at GCSE or A-level!

My approach to teaching is to create interactive lessons. I ask the student many questions to engage them and identify knowledge gaps. I start the lesson by asking questions about the previous lesson to recap the content. Then, I provide an overview of today's lesson. When teaching, I use my pen stylus to draw diagrams, making the content simpler. Throughout the lesson, I avoid talking continuously without asking questions, in order to keep the student interested. If a student answers correctly, I give positive encouragement and ask follow-up questions to test their knowledge depth. If a student answers incorrectly, I give hints to guide them to the correct answer, to help develop their critical thinking skills and confidence in tackling difficult questions. I always make sure to refer to past-paper questions so that my students are prepared for their exams.
