Denait - London, United Kingdom£29
£29GCSE Biology/Maths/Chemistry Tutoring- All Exam Boards
Achieving 8's in GCSE Maths, Biology and Chemistry and now studying Biochemistry at University In my lessons, I focus on creating a supportive and interactive learning environment where concepts are broken down into simple, manageable steps. We’ll use techniques like active recall and spaced repetition to ensure long-term understanding and retention. I’ll also incorporate visual aids and real-world examples to make learning engaging and relatable. Every session is tailored to your needs, helping you build confidence, tackle challenging topics, and develop the skills needed to succeed independently. I also encourage you to think about problems carefully, not just memorize answers. I teach you how to break down questions and look for patterns, so you can solve problems more easily. Additionally, if you struggle with organisation and time management, I can help with note-taking and creating personalized revision timetables. These tools will be valuable for your independent study, helping you stay on track and make the most of your revision time. For Maths, I’ll guide you through solving problems step by step, using diagrams and graphs to clarify abstract ideas. Real-world applications will show how mathematical concepts are useful beyond the classroom, helping you master key skills and feel prepared for any type of question. In Chemistry, I simplify complex topics like bonding, reactions, and calculations by linking them to everyday examples, making them easier to understand. We’ll focus on problem-solving strategies, clear explanations, and regular practice to ensure you’re exam-ready. In Biology, I bring topics like cells, ecosystems, and human systems to life by connecting them to relatable, real-world contexts. Using diagrams and structured explanations, I’ll help you break down complex processes and explain them in your own words. Mistakes are a natural part of learning, and I encourage you to attempt challenging questions without fear. This approach helps us pinpoint areas for growth, so you’re fully prepared for exams. Together, we’ll unlock your potential and make your goals a reality in Maths, Chemistry, and Biology!

Baran - United Kingdom£35
£35Biology - GCSE, A level tutoring and primary school teaching
**Class Description:** This tutoring service offers comprehensive support for GCSE and A-Level Biology students across all UK examination boards. Each session is specifically tailored to the individual learning needs of the student, focusing on both the academic requirements of their syllabus and their personal progress. As a fourth-year medical student, I bring a deeper understanding of biology through advanced studies and real-world applications, allowing me to provide insight into the subject beyond the curriculum. My teaching approach goes beyond simply preparing for exams; while exam-style questions will be regularly incorporated to ensure familiarity with the format and structure of assessments, the main focus will be on fostering a thorough and long-lasting understanding of biological concepts. Homework will be assigned after every lesson to reinforce the topics covered and ensure consistent progress. Additionally, exam-style questions will be systematically reviewed and analysed, equipping students with the confidence and exam techniques needed to excel in their qualifications. With this combination of tailored tutoring, practical insight, and academic support, students will be empowered to master their Biology studies and achieve their goals. I hold advanced DBS certification, have worked with children before and also work in psychology and paediatrics within the NHS.

Fatiha - Dellys, Algeria£12
£12General definition of cell, cell structure, the difference between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cell
The cell, the fundamental unit of all living beings, is a complex structure composed of different elements working in harmony. The plasma membrane: the protective envelope The plasma membrane is a semi-permeable barrier that delimits the cell and separates it from its environment. It consists of a double layer of phospholipids, in which various proteins are integrated. These proteins play a crucial role in the transport of substances across the membrane, cell communication and cell recognition. The cytoplasm: the internal environment The cytoplasm is the aqueous medium inside the cell. It contains many organelles, inclusions, and the cytosol. The cytosol is the liquid part of the cytoplasm, rich in enzymes and molecules necessary for the chemical reactions of the cell. The Core: The Control Center The nucleus is a characteristic organelle of eukaryotic cells. It contains the genetic information of the cell in the form of DNA, organized into chromosomes. The nucleus is surrounded by a nuclear envelope pierced by nuclear pores that allow the exchange of molecules between the nucleus and the cytoplasm. Organelles: specialized factories Organelles are specialized structures present in the cytoplasm. Each of them fulfills a specific function: Mitochondria: Nicknamed the "power plants" of the cell, they are the seat of cellular respiration, a process that produces the energy needed by the cell. The endoplasmic reticulum: A network of membranes involved in the synthesis of proteins and lipids. The Golgi apparatus: A set of flattened sacs that modify, package, and distribute proteins and lipids synthesized by the endoplasmic reticulum. Lysosomes: Small vesicles containing digestive enzymes that break down unnecessary or damaged molecules. The cytoskeleton: the skeleton of the cell The cytoskeleton is a network of protein filaments that gives the cell its shape, allows it to move, and organizes its organelles. It is made up of three types of filaments: microfilaments, intermediate filaments, and microtubules. The differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic cells There are two main types of cells: prokaryotic cells (bacteria) and eukaryotic cells (animals, plants, fungi). Prokaryotic cells are simpler and do not have a nucleus or membrane-bound organelles. Eukaryotic cells, on the other hand, are more complex and have a nucleus and many organelles.
