Biology IGCSE and A/As International Cambridge level

From 25 € /h

Biology is a very beautiful science but very wide with material.
Through the course I aim for students to learn in a concise way through notes and also I have designed lectures accompanied by exercises for each type of topic that students need as well as illustrative videos to facilitate memorization of the material.
Lectures are accompanied by graphic schemes.

In the IGCSE and CIE (Cambridge International Education)curricula, Genetics is a part of Biology under the broader topics of inheritance and variation. It is covered in both IGCSE Biologyand AS/A Level Biology. Below is a breakdown of what you can expect in each:

IGCSE Biology (Cambridge - 0610/0970)
The topic of genetics is introduced under the following key areas:

1. Variation and Inheritance
- Genetic variation: Understanding differences caused by genetic and environmental factors.
- Inheritance:
- Definition of key terms: genes, alleles, dominant, recessive, homozygous, heterozygous, phenotype, genotype.
- Monohybrid inheritance (using Punnett squares to predict offspring ratios).
- Concepts of dominant and recessive traits.
- Structure of DNA:
- Basic structure of DNA (double helix) and its role in carrying genetic information.
- Mutations:
- Causes (e.g., radiation, chemicals) and effects of mutations on organisms.

2. Selective Breeding and Genetic Engineering (basic concepts):
- Selective breeding in animals and plants to produce desired traits.
- Introduction to genetic modification (GM), though details are limited in IGCSE.

---

CIE AS and A Level Biology (9700)
At the A Level, genetics is covered in greater depth. Key concepts include:

1. DNA and Protein Synthesis:
- Structure of DNA, RNA, and nucleotides.
- Transcription, translation, and protein synthesis.
- Genetic code and its universal nature.

2. Cell Division:
- Mitosis and meiosis.
- Significance of meiosis in genetic variation (crossing over, independent assortment).

3. Inheritance:
- Mendelian genetics: monohybrid and dihybrid crosses.
- Codominance and multiple alleles.
- Sex-linked inheritance (e.g., haemophilia, color blindness).
- Pedigree analysis.

4. Gene Technology:
- Recombinant DNA technology (genetic modification and cloning).
- Applications of genetic engineering in medicine and agriculture.

5. Mutations:
- Gene mutations and their effects.
- Chromosomal abnormalities.

6. Variation and Selection:
- Natural selection and evolution.
- Role of genetic variation in populations.

---
Summary
- At the IGCSE level, genetics focuses on basic concepts of inheritance, variation, DNA structure, and simple Punnett square problems.
- At the AS/A Level, the depth increases significantly, introducing advanced topics like meiosis, protein synthesis, genetic engineering, and natural selection.

Need help with maths or biology?
As a biomedical scientist with a PhD in Medicine and Health Sciences, I enjoy helping students of all ages to better understand the material and learn with greater confidence. We work at your own pace and in a way that suits your learning style.

How does a lesson work?
In the first session, we identify the main difficulties together. From there, we build up step by step. I encourage questions and provide practical tips and strategies to make studying more effective.

We work through exercises together, discuss examples, and then move on to more challenging problems to deepen understanding. This approach ensures you’re well prepared for your tests and exams.

A positive learning experience
Learning should be enjoyable. With a patient, motivating and clear approach, I create a relaxed environment where it’s okay to make mistakes, and no question is too much to ask — because that’s how real learning happens.

Interested?
Feel free to get in touch for more information or to arrange your first lesson. I’ll be happy to help you move forward!

This class focuses on building strong medical concepts and applying them clinically. Sessions are tailored to the student’s level and goals, covering core subjects such as Anatomy, Physiology, Pharmacology, Pathology, and Clinical Medicine. Teaching is exam-oriented and aligned with USMLE, UKMLA, NBME, and OSCE requirements.

Classes are interactive and structured, using clear explanations, clinical cases, and exam-style questions to reinforce understanding. The emphasis is on logical thinking, long-term retention, and confidence in applying knowledge, rather than rote memorisation.

Personalized classes covering syllabus, study methods, and materials in any area of molecular biology and biochemistry. I typically teach at a university level but can also adapt to high school and secondary school biology.

Graduated in Biochemistry from the Autonomous University of Madrid, with a master's degree in molecular biomedicine and currently doing a doctorate in brain metastasis and immunotherapy at the IIBM Sols Morreale.
I have always loved molecular biology, and especially the ability to understand it in detail so I can play with it and help people through research.
In addition to in-person classes, I give talks in high schools. I like to connect students to complex topics like biochemistry and relate them to aspects of their lives, and I like to do it through interesting facts and fun, engaging information.

This class is designed for parents who are seeking a high-quality, structured, and intellectually sound educational experience for their children, combining English language learning with biology and life sciences in a thoughtful and age-appropriate manner.
English is taught at beginner and intermediate levels, with a strong emphasis on conceptual understanding, correct language use, and confidence in communication. Lessons are carefully structured and adapted to each student’s cognitive level, learning pace, and educational needs. Particular attention is paid to building a solid foundation in vocabulary, comprehension, and spoken English, ensuring long-term progress rather than short-term memorisation.
Biology is integrated as a meaningful educational component, not as a superficial add-on. Depending on the student’s age and goals, instruction may range from basic life science concepts to school-level and academic biology, including introductory cell biology and molecular biology topics. Scientific content is presented clearly and logically, fostering analytical thinking while simultaneously strengthening English comprehension in an academic context.
This combined approach supports students not only in improving their English, but also in learning how to understand and articulate scientific concepts in English, an essential skill for modern education. The class is particularly suitable for families who value academic depth, clarity of instruction, and personalised teaching.

The Art of Naming in Anatomy: Decoding Anatomy for Medical Students

I teach anatomy through a terminology-based approach that helps medical students decode the logic behind anatomical names instead of memorizing everything as disconnected facts. My method treats anatomy as a language, where names often reflect structure, location, attachments, function, shape, direction, size, or relationship to surrounding anatomy.

This approach is especially helpful for students who feel overwhelmed by anatomy and struggle with retention. By learning how to break down anatomical terms into meaningful parts, students can organize information more effectively, improve recall, and reduce confusion when studying large volumes of material.

My focus is practical and student-centered. I help students build a strong exam-oriented foundation by prioritizing high-yield memorization strategies first, while gradually strengthening understanding over time. I also guide students on how to approach practice questions in a way that reinforces anatomical memory and improves long-term retention.

The goal is not only to memorize anatomy for an exam, but to develop a reliable way of reading, interpreting, and learning anatomy with confidence.
