    Marine Science - Biology, Ecology, and Oceanography!

    Thinking about marine biology as a career? Or do you have a general interest in marine biology and all the amazing life living in our oceans? Whether it's marine mammals, comparing polar and tropic seas, or understanding the oceanographic processes and the currents around the world, and how these might change with climate change, I am happy to help with a tailored marine biology course for you. Topics we can cover (but not limited to!):

    - Oceans and currents
    - Rocky coasts
    - Polar seas
    - Tropical seas
    - Deep sea
    - Benthic Ecology (the things that live inside and ontop of the seafloor!)
    - Fisheries
    - Climate change and the impacts on ocean ecosystems
    - Statistics
    - ... and many more! :)

    I would recommend this level of tutoring to college and university level students (that's not to deter any of you ambitious secondary/high school students, or people with a general interest, you are more than welcome!). I have put beginner level as the class title, but I am happy to teach higher levels. We can tailor the class to you if there is a particular area of interest for you :)

    About Me

    Hello,

    I am Phoebe, originally from London in the UK, however, I have lived in many places such as Fiji, Australia, Scotland, various places in England, and now in Finland! I am a PhD researcher who is specialising in Arctic marine ecology with a solid background in marine science and ecology.

    Now, I am on this website in the hope to share some of the knowledge and skills I have accumulated over the years and passing them on to you in a calm manner, with no pressure, and fun, easy-going one-on-one sessions. As a scientist, you have to know many skills (not just the science!), and so I have represented a few of the necessary skills here on my page to help you in your early scientist careers.

    Please feel free to contact me at any time if there is something you would like to discuss or to have a more tailored experience.

    Look forward to meeting you.

    Best Regards,
    Phoebe

    Experience / Qualifications

    Over the years, my teaching experience has covered many different subjects and ages. I have been a scuba diving instructor for a few years, I have been a hospitality trainee, and I am currently doing a course to become an open science coach. Additionally, I have often been assisting on courses at University since my bachelor degree.
    Becoming a scientist? Statistics and coding skills are an important part of your everyday job. Learn early, practice, and with no time you will be flying through your data analyses before everybody else. Using coding software such as R allows you to interpret and analyse meaningful data and plot beautiful graphs using base R or multiple libraries. I will teach you the basic syntax of R, how to understand and 'think' like R, and build on those skills to do more complicated statistics (ANOVA's, PCA, GLM's, mixed-effects models, etc.) and - the most important(!) - how to plot beautiful graphs! I would recommend this level of tutoring to college and university level students (that's not to deter any of you ambitious secondary/high school students, or people with a general interest, you are more than welcome!). I have put beginner level as the class title, but I am happy to teach higher levels. We can tailor the class to you if you want to focus on syntax, loops, statistics, models, figures/plots, etc. It's up to you! :) About me: I am a PhD researcher who is specialising in Arctic marine ecology with a solid background in marine science and ecology. I am currently based in Finland, Europe, but I am a UK national and studied at both St Andrews University and Southampton University in the UK. I am flexible with timings so if the times listed below don't suit you please contact me and we can organise a time that works for us both.
    Want to improve your scientific academic writing skills? We can tailor tutoring to cover: - How to critically read other scientific published work (including academic journals and blog style writing) - How to formulate scientific writing for essays, dissertations, and professional publications - Breaking down the abstract, introduction, methods, results, discussion, and conclusion - Introduce a 'storyline' by creating structure within and across each section. - Practice writing sessions - Give feedback on your work - Help with current work. - Up to you! Just let me know your needs and we can work together to build your skills and confidence :) Being from the UK, I am a native English speaker and have studied at the University of Southampton (England) and St Andrews (Scotland). I am currently based in Finland while doing my Ph.D. in Marine Science at Åbo Akademi University where I am currently publishing my own scientific work in journals.

    Private lessons in maths - physics - bio - methodology
    Having obtained my Engineering degree in June 2018 and currently working as a Software Engineer in an IT company, I want to share my knowledge acquired during my studies with people of all ages in the Brussels region. My goal is to help my students approach the subject from a different angle so that they feel more comfortable and confident. I adapt my lessons to everyone by combining theory, exercises and practical examples. This period is ideal for getting back up to speed and possibly adopting a new working methodology in order to best approach the end of year session. Do not hesitate to contact me if you have any questions!

    Mathematics, Sciences, Algebra, Calculus, Statistics: Higher Education - private lessons.
    Need help with math sciences? As a civil engineer, 30, I am happy to help you! Learn at your pace and with many examples to clarify the learning material. I have years of experience in teaching simple and complex material. The lessons run as follows. First of all, together we look for the student's biggest stumbling blocks. These can be related to the subject matter as well as to the study method. From there, I continue to work at the pace of the student and encourage them to ask as many questions as possible. I also give them tips and tricks, and improve their working methods where necessary. During the lesson I give many examples to make the subject matter more interesting and we solve exercises together. Once the student has mastered the exercises from the lesson, I give some more challenging exercises to also test on the deeper understanding of the subject matter. In this way I try to optimally prepare the student for his / her test or exam. However, learning should also be enjoyable. That is why I always strive for a good relationship with the student through a spontaneous and positive approach. I am also very patient. All this lowers the barrier to ask questions and improves the student's learning process. Are you interested? Do not hesitate to contact me! See you soon! Tim

    Elementary to Advance level Chemistry to secondary and senior secondary students
    When it comes to science, chemistry is the subject that becomes a bridge in understanding and solving the mystery at the molecular level. People generally ignore this subject due to it's wierd theory. Well not more now. I have studied and designed my techniques in such a way that you are going to love this subject. The randomness in your mind, entropy though, I understand it is high. But I will bring that randomness to a stable level , intermix the theoretical concepts with the real world in such a way that you will enjoy that hybridized state. I will help you get your concepts cleared. And more often, I will make you fall in love with this subject. Following are the topics we will be dealing with :- 1. Mole concepts. 2. Problems based upon stoichiometry ( Limiting reagent , POAC , Law of equivalence ) 3. Atomic structure 4. Periodic Classification of elements 5. Concept of Chemical bonding and its type. 6. Gaseous state 7. Thermodynamics 8. Thermochemistry 9. Chemical equilibrium 10. Ionic equilibrium 11. Concept of acid, base and salt. 12. Metals and non-metals. 13. Redox reaction and balancing 14. Hydrogen, hydrogen peroxide and water. 15. s- block elements 16. p- block elements 17. d & f block elements 18. Nomenclature of organic compounds 19. Complete isomerism of organic compounds 20. Ionic, covalent and coordination compounds 21. Isomerism in coordination compounds. 22. General organic chemistry - the heart of organic chemistry 23. Principle reactions of organic chemistry. 24. Carbonyl compounds 25. Alcohol , phenol and ethers 26. Nitrogen containing organic compounds 27. Haloalkane and haloarene 28. Hydrocarbons 29. Metallurgical operations and extraction 30. Surface chemistry 31. Electrochemistry 32. Solutions 33. The solid state 34. Chemical kinetics 35. CVRS and VVRS study 36. Practical organic chemistry 37. Quantitative and qualitative analysis of organic compounds 38. Quantitative and qualitative analysis of inorganic compounds 39. Environmental Chemistry 40. Drugs and medicine - classification and principle criteria 41. Biomolecules 42. Polymer chemistry And many more. You can mention any separate topic you want to study ,if I am missing something here. As different students have different grasping power , so I will be dealing with them accordingly , right from the very basic concepts to the farmost advance level. Give me an attempt, try me, to catch your attention , build up your focus and make your chemistry skills stable similar to the noble gases.
