Hey there! I am Laura and I am a graduate Chemical Engineer working in engineering consultancy company Worley in London. I am currently studying in Hong Business school, so I’m keen to tutor local students.

I am really passionate about Science and I am willing to share my knowledge through tutoring. I worked as an online tutor for more than 4 years in one of the UK's top online tuition websites. During this time, I've delivered more than 1600 lessons and received positive feedback (please see picture below). I have also worked as a self-employed Chemistry & Maths tutor for a year and thought British and international students from all over the world. I have experience with AQA, Edexcel, OCR, WJEC exam boards and IB programme.

In my tutorials, student will be in control of what we cover during the session. We will talk through problems the student is having or questions (s)he wants to ask. I will use a range of different techniques, such as diagrams, summaries, analogies, which will help student memorise concepts easier. Once we looked through the theory, we will try to solve past exam questions. This will let student see the application of theory. I aim to create an environment in which any question can be asked and mistakes can be corrected.

I am excited to meet you and help you achieve your full potential!

◦ This class is for students of ages and will be tailored to your levels, needs, and interests
◦ It includes all aspects of learning basic science and social studies (either transdisciplinary or one subject)

◦ This class is great as homework help or an extension of what you are learning in school

◦ It can include any of the following (from the IB Primary Year Program):
• An inquiry into the nature of the self; beliefs and values; personal, physical, mental, social, and spiritual health; human relationships including families, friends, communities, and cultures; rights and responsibilities; what it means to be human.
• An inquiry into rights and responsibilities in the struggle to share finite resources with other people and with other living things; communities and the relationships within and between them; access to equal opportunities; peace and conflict resolution.
• An inquiry into the ways in which we discover and express ideas, feelings, nature, culture, beliefs, and values; the ways in which we reflect on, extend, and enjoy our creativity; our appreciation of the aesthetic.
• An inquiry into the natural world and its laws; the interaction between the natural world (physical and biological) and human societies; how humans use their understanding of scientific principles; the impact of scientific and technological advances on society and the environment
• An inquiry into orientation in place and time; personal histories; homes and journeys; the discoveries, explorations, and migrations of humankind; the relationships between, and the interconnectedness of, individuals and civilizations from local and global perspectives.
• An inquiry into the interconnectedness of human-made systems and communities; the structure and function of organizations; societal decision-making; economic activities and their impact on humankind and the environment.

Mathematics is a subject that deals with numbers, shapes, logic, quantity and arrangements. Mathematics teaches to solve problems based on numerical calculations and find the solutions.
Biology is a natural science concerned with the study of life and living organisms. Modern biology is a vast and eclectic field composed of many specialized disciplines that study the structure, function, growth, distribution, evolution, or other features of living organisms.
Science is the process of learning about the natural world through observation and experimentation.
