A PhD biologist with 15 years of experience in academic education & qualified teacher in the UK, teaching GCSE to Alevel

I combine an extensive academic background with real in-school teaching experience. For over 15 years, I have supported so many school, University and postgraduate students succeed in their goals and secure their top choice of University. In my pedagogy training, I specialised in utilising my PhD level knowledge of Biology to develop teaching methods that can really make a difference to students of all abilities. I have supported GCSE students with difficulties in attention and exam technique by tailoring my lessons to their exact needs, as well as very high achieving students who need an additional challenge and have competitive goals like medicine and dentistry.
My extensive training in competitive institutions is what has fortified my abilities and experience as a tutor. I have completed:
- BSc in Human Genetics in University College London
- MSc in Molecular Medicine in Imperial College London
- PhD in Stem Cell Biology and Embryology in King's College London
- Further research in Oxford University.
- Qualified Teacher Status for PhD holders: Curriculum Designer and Researcher in
-Educational Methods

My pedagogy training, Qualified Teacher Status and teaching experience were achieved in a cutting edge and prestigious program, run by The Brilliant Club, where academics are placed in secondary education, with the goal of improving the quality of science teaching and inspiring students to pursue competitive university studies. This program was specifically tailored to translate my vast academic experience into school teaching. I was able to gain valuable insight into the challenges and limitations of the educational system and develop ways to support students of all levels, ranging from students with special educational needs to challenging students that become easily bored with standard school activities.

I have now turned to being a full time tutor, as it is something I enjoy so much! It is hugely gratifying to be able to see a student fulfil their full potential and achieve their dreams! This also means that I have the time to dedicate to ensure that each one of my students gets excellent and consistent resources, feedback and individualised support, in a way that is simply not possible for tutors doing this as a side job.
