IB Biology and Chemistry SL/HL Tutoring for IB Students

From 25.91 £ /h

If you're looking for an organised and professional teacher to help you achieve your academic goals, look no further! The IB science subjects can be extremely difficult to go through on your own, and I'll be glad to use my experience to help you out.

A couple of things I like to do:

- Initial test or interview to assess your level.
- Use Notion as a platform to share all my resources.
- Use mock papers that lay out the exercises JUST like in the real exams, so you will feel really prepared.
- I give homework when appropriate.
- I provide any kind of mentoring and college counseling. People who study Biology and Chemistry usually want to pursue a clinical career-- and that is a complex process!

Extra information

I will provide the necessary materials but you should bring a notepad for note taking and solving exercises in class.

About Me

Biochemistry, maths, robotics, English, and Spanish teacher who proudly graduated with a 42 in IB :D

My classes are dynamic although if you need something more lecture-y I can do that too. I love allegories and real-life examples, mnemonics, and pretty diagrams. They kept me going throughout high school and continue to do so in college.

I provide study plans tailored to each student, too.

What I love most about teaching is when my students let me share their pride when they get the grades they wanted, and when they also call me to help with something more extracurricular (which calculators to buy, book recommendations...), it really shows trust and on top of everything else, motivation to learn, which is my main goal.

Education

Current Medicine student at University of Valencia, Spain.
A previous year of research at UMH's Institute of Neuroscience.
I have the CPE (C2) English diploma and the IB diploma with a 42/45, 4 HL subjects and the bilingual distinction.

Experience / Qualifications

I have been a teacher for four years now, I'm used to adults and teens and children of many ages. What this experience has taught me is that people sometimes just need someone that caters to them academically and just molds to the way their brain works. More often than not, the youngest children just needed someone to help them simplify and focus, and the teens actually needed more help with study techniques and learning to learn than understanding the actual knowledge. But there is diversity in that too!

What I mean is that whatever your needs are, from a 30 minute doubt to a months long plan to get an A in your final maths test, don't be afraid to contact me. Every moment counts towards your future!

The math, physics, chemistry, and SVT courses of the French or Swiss program of maturity or university are done by either in-depth explanations or by a quick course and summary of essential needs according to the case of each student supported by exercises from the book or evaluations and exams from other high schools.
A special follow-up program to better prepare for the Terminales session.
So that I can give support courses for the 1st year of university in Mathematics - Analysis - Matrices - Statistics - Algebra - Geometry - Physics - Mechanics - Electricity - Chemistry - Organic Chemistry - Biology, Geology.
My experience is too long and for years I have learned methods for each case and for each student to fill in their gaps with the best results of Excellent, Very Good, and Good as mentioned by my students.
I can also help students to better prepare for courses and support them to better prepare for the duties of CNED in science subjects.
Guaranteed response within minutes up to 10 hours maximum.

Hello 😊

Engineer (BAC + 5) in Process Engineering (Physics-Chemistry), I propose today to give you tutoring lessons in maths-physics and chemistry for college, high school and post BAC up to L3 (or special maths). for the prepas) with help in preparing for competitive examinations (Grandes Ecoles or agro/veto).

Since high school, I like to pass on my passion for science to students. Over the past 10 years, I have been able to discover a good number of profiles that I have been able to accompany (for some for 3 years) up to patents, BAC and competitions.

My teaching method is based on several pillars:

- transmit a methodology, because very often it is not a problem of understanding the course that blocks the student but a lack of methodology in the approach to the exercises,

- listening to the student, adapting to his profile, his way of integrating and working, understanding the sciences,

- show popular science or present exercises using examples from everyday life, in order to deconstruct the negative image of science that many students have. In short, show them that science is easy and that we rub shoulders with it everywhere around us at all times :)

- repetition and practice, the main structure of my course: repetition of the previous course to ensure that the concepts have been well integrated, present the course of the session and the formulas and principles to remember (it is at the beginning course that the student's memory and attention are the best), then practice for 2/3 to 3/4 of the course, and finally recap and lesson note cards.

I hope to be able to pass on my passion for science to you soon :)

Struggling with math, physics, or chemistry? You're not alone — these subjects are hard, and classroom explanations are rarely enough.
I offer personalized tutoring for middle school, high school, and early university students following the French Mission curriculum, the Moroccan national curriculum, or the international baccalaureate.
Topics covered:

Mathematics: algebra, geometry, calculus, trigonometry, probability
Physics: mechanics, electricity, optics, thermodynamics
Chemistry: organic, inorganic, stoichiometry, reactions

My approach:
I don't re-explain the textbook — I identify exactly where your understanding breaks down and fix it from there. Each session is built around your specific difficulties, not a preset program.
I completed CPGE (Classes Préparatoires aux Grandes Écoles) in Mathematics and Physics before graduating as a State Engineer — I know these subjects at an advanced level and I know where students typically get lost.
Individual and small group sessions available. Online (worldwide) in French, Arabic, or English.

I have been teaching private lessons at the primary, secondary, high school, and university preparatory levels for 11 years. I teach mathematics, physics, chemistry, and science. I have a good command of the curricula of IB, IGCSE, American, Hong Kong, and international schools.

Additionally, I hold the position of president at the Astronomy Society, where I foster my students' interest in astronomy and science beyond the lessons. I prepare the learning environment by incorporating experiments and exploration, moving away from rote education. I often bring experimental materials to class, aiming to make learning memorable through hands-on experiments.

As an educational mentor, I approach my students as if they were my siblings, valuing creativity. I have a deep passion for mathematics, physics, and science. I am dedicated to helping students understand and learn because life encompasses both SCIENCE and ART. The more people I can inspire to know, understand, and love mathematics, physics, and chemistry, the more proud I am.

Are you curious about how nature works?

Let's explore together!

I'd like to start by greeting everyone who is reading this and then briefly discuss the teachings I'm providing. Going to medical school is a major step, and while becoming a doctor may have been a big dream of yours, things unfortunately didn't turn out the way you had hoped. You didn't receive what you eagerly want following your bac. I'm here to tell you that earning your bac is just the first step on a longer journey. You have another opportunity to fulfill your lifelong ambitions. What role do I play in this? as someone who has been in your position and ultimately obtained what I want. We will have a customized plan that fulfills your needs, we will correct any unsuccessful methods and build new ones, and I will lead you through the program at every stage.

➤ MY TEACHING APPROACH

My lessons are calm, structured and highly focused. I first identify the student’s weak points, then build the topic from the basics to exam level. I use simple explanations, clear formulas and many exam-style questions so that the student understands not only the answer, but also the thinking process behind it.

For Mathematics, I focus on method, structure and accuracy. Students learn how to read a question properly, identify the correct formula, avoid unnecessary mistakes and present their solution clearly.

For Physics and Chemistry, I connect theory with calculations and exam-style applications. Many students struggle because they memorise formulas without understanding when and why to use them. I help students build this connection so they can solve both standard and challenging questions with confidence.
