About Me

Hello! I’m a fully qualified science teacher with five years of experience, currently working at a leading all-girls boarding school. I hold a PGCE in Secondary Science and an MA in Education, and I’ve taught a wide range of students from Key Stage 3 to A-level. I specialise in GCSE Biology and Chemistry (AQA and Edexcel), with a particular focus on developing strong exam skills and building confidence. My lessons are calm, supportive, and tailored to each student’s needs. I’m passionate about helping young people achieve their goals and enjoy learning along the way.

Education

MA in Education – Completed recently, with a focus on teaching and learning strategies

PGCE in Secondary Science – Qualified to teach Science at Key Stages 3–5

BSc (2.1) in Animal Behaviour

Experience / Qualifications

Science is a subject I’ve always loved for the way it helps us understand the world around us and I bring that enthusiasm into every lesson I teach. My aim is to make Biology and Chemistry not just manageable, but genuinely interesting and rewarding for my students. I’m particularly passionate about helping pupils prepare for their GCSE exams, focusing on developing the skills and confidence they need to succeed.

I have experience with both AQA and Edexcel syllabi and regularly use common textbooks such as CGP GCSE Biology and Oxford’s AQA GCSE Biology series. My sessions are structured around building subject knowledge, mastering exam technique, and breaking down tricky topics into simple, memorable steps.
A-Level Biology can be content-heavy and challenging—but with the right exam skills, you can turn your knowledge into top marks. This class focuses on building the techniques and confidence needed to tackle AQA or OCR A Biology exams successfully. In these sessions, we will: Break down exam questions and command words Learn how to write clear, concise, and structured answers Tackle data analysis and practical-based questions Understand what examiners are looking for in longer responses Review tricky topics and apply them to past paper questions Develop effective revision strategies and time management skills Whether you're aiming for a grade boost, preparing for mocks, or working towards top university offers, this class will be tailored to your specific needs and exam board.
With five years of teaching experience and a PGCE in Secondary Science, I specialise in helping students develop the skills they need to succeed in GCSE Biology. I have taught both AQA and Edexcel specifications, and I'm confident in supporting students across a wide range of ability levels. My approach focuses on strengthening exam technique—breaking down command words, tackling tricky application questions, and building confidence in extended response answers. I use past paper practice, targeted feedback, and proven revision strategies to help students understand what examiners are looking for and how to maximise their marks. Whether your goal is to secure a strong pass or push towards top grades, I tailor each session to your learning style and specific needs, helping you feel prepared, focused, and in control on exam day.
