Hello, I'm Pratibha, a PhD-qualified Biology and Chemistry tutor based in the Netherlands. I have more than 10 years of teaching experience at secondary and university level. I help students understand Biology, Biochemistry, Biotechnology, Pharmacology and Chemistry, so they can do well in exams and feel confident in the subject. I teach online, and students from the Netherlands, Europe and the rest of the world are welcome. What I teach Secondary and pre-university: Biology and Chemistry for IB, A-Level, IGCSE, AP and other international curricula University: Biochemistry, Molecular Biology, Immunology, Genetics, Microbiology, Zoology and Biotechnology, all the five branches of Chemistry Exam preparation: past papers, exam technique, revision plans and last-minute support Homework and coursework help: including lab reports, essays and internal assessments About my background PhD in Zoology, MSc in Biotechnology (Core subject- Chemistry) and MSc in Zoology (Gold Medalist) Former Assistant Professor, with experience teaching both school and university students Published researcher in preclinical pharmacology, with a recent poster presentation at AIBIA2025 in Utrecht Experience guiding student research projects and designing lab activities that link practical work to theory Fluent in English, with working knowledge of French and native-level Hindi How my lessons work Concepts first: I explain the "why" behind each topic, so you are not just memorising. Tailored to you: Every student starts with a short chat about their level, goals and syllabus, and I build the lessons from there. Interactive: I use diagrams, worked examples, practice questions and digital materials, and I give clear feedback after each lesson. Exam-focused: We practise how to read questions, structure answers and manage time under pressure. Supportive and patient: All levels are welcome, from students who are struggling to those aiming for top grades. Who I can help Students who find Biology or Chemistry difficult and want to build confidence IB and A-Level students aiming for top grades University students who need help with Biochemistry, Molecular Biology or Immunology Students who need help with revision, past papers or coursework Book a trial lesson. Message me with your level, subject, exam board and goals, and we will plan your first lesson together. I look forward to helping you succeed. Location of the Lessons: Live, interactive, and high-quality sessions delivered online—learn from home in the Netherlands or anywhere worldwide, Face to face- at your home or at my place.

Mastering high school biology—especially the IB Biology Diploma Programme—requires both deep conceptual understanding and rigorous exam technique. This course is fully aligned with the IB Biology syllabus across all core themes: Unity and Diversity, Form and Function, Interaction and Interdependence, and Continuity and Change. As a University Assistant Lecturer with over six years of academic teaching experience, I help students navigate both Standard Level (SL) and Higher Level (HL) topics, including: Cell & Molecular Biology: Cell structure, membrane transport, enzymes, cellular respiration, and photosynthesis. Genetics & Biotechnology: Nucleic acids, transcription, translation, inheritance patterns, PCR, and gel electrophoresis. Human Physiology & Health: Organ systems, immunology, neurobiology, and hormonal regulation. Ecology & Evolution: Natural selection, speciation, energy flow, biodiversity, and conservation biology. HL Exclusive Content: Advanced gene expression, nucleic acid detail, tissue differentiation, and complex metabolic pathways. Beyond theory, we focus on syllabus-specific assessment skills: step-by-step guidance on your Internal Assessment (IA) (research question design, data analysis, and statistical evaluation), mastering Paper 1 (MCQs & Data Analysis), and writing structured responses for Paper 2. Lessons are customized to your exam board and current learning pace. Feel free to reach out to discuss your current syllabus topics or IA progress. I look forward to helping you achieve top marks!

I have a passion for science, especially life science. After having finished my master's degree in Biotechnology and working as a molecular oncology researcher for 3 years, I now wish to share my passion for this field with budding, curious minds. In this class, based on the requirement of the student, I will focus on basic or advanced life science topics such as molecular biology, cell biology, biochemistry and bioanalytical techniques. If you are in school and need your basics covered, I can teach basic biology and chemistry in the simplest manner. I can understand these subjects can come off as quite dry to many students, but hopefully, my extreme enthusiasm in this field will change that for you. Hope to see you soon.

In bioprocessing you cannot have the cake and eat it too. Constantly, you need to make choices about which unit operation is best suited for a particular application and what are the trade offs. Because of so many factors that guide this decision, it can be daunting for starting biotech/bioprocess students to be overwhelmed. I was definitely overwhelmed in my 1st year of uni. But after 5 years studying the subject, I am here to help you to think like an engineer and make informed choices based on the context of the process and product. In my class, I will teach you the theoretical background behind bioreactors and common unit operations (e.g. filtration, centrifugation, chromatography) and how to implement them into a bioprocess. This class is best suited for university students (bachelor or master), people joining/switching industry or just people interested in how pharmaceuticals are made! If you are a university student, we can can discuss your own assignments or projects. My tutoring style is discussion-based. We will have a conversation about the subjects rather than a lecture, which will give you the tools and confidence to better synthesize the course content and present your ideas in a specific manner. I create my own materials for each class, including definitions, calculations, diagrams and past-exam questions. I use a touchscreen tablet to interactively annotate our class worksheets, draw P&IDs, structures and mechanisms, write down chemical reactions and step-by-step calculations.
