 Lesson Details

Make GCSE Biology easier, clearer and more enjoyable!

I’ll help you understand the why behind Biology rather than simply memorising facts. We’ll break concepts down into simple steps and practise applying your knowledge to exam-style questions.

With my experience studying Biology through A-level and now Medicine, I can also show you how the topics you learn at GCSE connect to the human body and real-world medicine.

My Subjects

 My Experience:

I am a medical student at Lancaster University with a strong academic background in Biology, Chemistry and English, and a genuine passion for helping students achieve their goals.

I have several years of experience supporting students, including working as a Literacy Mentor with 5-7 year olds, where I provided one-to-one and group support with reading, comprehension, phonics and writing.

I have also worked as a university peer mentor, helping students transition into university and supporting them through the challenges of their first year of Medicine. This included helping students adapt to university life, manage their workload, organise their studies and develop effective approaches to learning.

Alongside my teaching and mentoring experience, I have worked as a GP Assistant for a year. This role has strengthened my communication, organisation and interpersonal skills through working directly with patients and healthcare professionals. I regularly take brief patient histories and basic observations, explain treatment procedures and help patients understand the next steps in their care. I believe these skills translate directly into tutoring, particularly when breaking down difficult topics, communicating clearly and adapting explanations to different learners.

My approach to tutoring is supportive, patient and personalised. I aim not only to help students understand a subject, but also to build their confidence and develop effective study skills that they can use independently.

Whether you need support with Biology, Chemistry, English, exam preparation, study techniques or adjusting to the demands of university and Medicine, I am happy to tailor sessions around your individual needs and goals.
