I graduated with a perfect 45/45 in the IB Diploma and achieved 7/7 in both Biology HL and Chemistry HL. I also have over 3 years of teaching experience. In this class, I’ll share the strategies, techniques, and exam approaches that helped me achieve those results. This class is focused on more than simply reviewing the syllabus. We will focus on how to approach IB science questions, apply your knowledge effectively, maximize marks, and consistently perform at a 6–7 level. What we will focus on: - How to approach difficult IB-style questions - Strategies for moving from a 5 to a 6 or from a 6 to a 7 - How to understand command terms and what questions are really asking - How to structure answers to maximize marks - Data analysis, graphs, calculations, and experimental questions - Common mistakes that cost students marks - Time management and exam strategy - Challenging 6–7 level Biology HL and Chemistry HL questions We will work through challenging IB-style Biology and Chemistry questions step by step, focusing not only on what the correct answer is, but why the markscheme awards marks for it and how to recognize similar questions in an exam. Whether you are currently working toward a 6, trying to push from a 6 to a 7, or simply want to become significantly stronger in IB Biology HL or Chemistry HL, this class will give you a clear and practical strategy for maximizing your exam performance.

have graduated with a degree in chemical engineering from the University of Edinburgh, UK. I am also an Erasmus Mundus scholar with a master's in Analytical Chemistry from Uppsala University. Currently, I am pursuing a PhD in physical chemistry. I have been tutoring since 2012 to fund my education expenses. I formally began tutoring in 2014 as part of my vocational training as a teacher in Ghana, funded by the University of Edinburgh. The formal training has taught me a lot about curriculum development, time management, and fusing my teaching methodology to my students’ needs. I have been tutoring in Physics, Chemistry, and Math, in person and online; the hybrid model has allowed me to reach out and teach students in 8 different countries. I have successful students from these past nine years who have not only commended my work ethic but can also stand testament to my enthusiasm. My excellent academic career has nurtured in me a natural talent for teaching. My experiences have taught me how to tackle one problem at a time, and I believe that using this approach—paired with my unconventional examples that force students to think outside the box—I can truly provide an excellent understanding and explanation. My teaching methodology is based on two main things: skill development and adaptation. Initially, I create a skeleton of the most suitable methodology tailored to the preferred curriculum, after which, I adapt that lecture to the specific needs of the student based on their knowledge and grasp of the concepts. Second, I like to develop analytical and scientific ability along with knowledge in my students, and for that, I use a combination of resources in the form of worksheets, class tasks, and past papers. Last, I believe in the strong ethic of providing feedback to the parents, so that they are aware of their child’s progress. Frequently Asked Questions: Which subject(s) do you teach? I teach math, mechanics, statistics, chemistry and physics. I also teach biology up to GCSE level. When are you available? My timetable is quite flexible. I am happy to work weekdays, week evening and weekends. Which ages and levels do you teach? The majority of my students are between the ages of 10-18, but I also teach college Students. I am also helping foundation and first year university students. Which qualifications do you prepare your students for? GCSE, o-level, A/S-level, A-level, IB, School entrance exams and SATs Describe your arrangements for online tutoring? I use Zoom online sessions since it has many tools and features specially designed for interactive and visual learning. I am fully equipped with modern gadgets for e-learning. I use Google drive and docs to share files.

Chemistry is a very important subject when it comes to deciding careers in medicine, pharmacy or engineering. As a pharmaceutical graduate, I possess special knowledge in chemistry and have been guiding students through making their concepts easier with the chemical reactions and the hardest concept simplified into easier real-life examples. -Basic chemistry -Organic chemistry concepts (calculations, chemical reactions, etc) - Inorganic chemistry (Biochemistry, etc) -Chemical Reactions (including Grignard reagents, Redox reactions, etc) -Advanced level (Graduate level) You only need to share the topic and if you have a specific course overview, please share it with me so that I can help you out in the best possible way to teach you with the same concepts as you have been taught in the school/college/university.

Welcome to university students or masters and doctoral students!!! I teach the course of Natural Products Chemistry or Phytochemistry or Pharmacognosy. In this class we will learn about the methods of extracting, separating and identifying the chemical form of active chemical compounds (biologically active secondary compounds) from natural sources, such as medicinal and aromatic plants. We will also discuss what is known as chromatography, spectroscopy, spectroscopy, mass spectrometry, magnetic resonance and advanced analysis devices used in this field. This is in addition to knowing some important applications of these active materials in various fields, such as the pharmaceutical industry, agriculture, etc. We will also learn the practical and laboratory methods that are carried out in the laboratory to conduct toxicity, antioxidant, and diabetes analyses, etc. Experience: About 20 years of practical experience in the field of chemistry, medicinal and aromatic plants and pharmacy with parallel training and private lessons for science and chemistry curricula. With my qualifications and experience, I hold a master’s degree and a doctorate in organic chemistry (chemistry of natural products), in addition to other graduate degrees and a doctoral scholarship in pharmaceutical sciences in Belgium from the Erasmus Mendus Organization of the European Union.
