Marine Science - Biology, Ecology, and Oceanography!

Van 26 € /h

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: 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.

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

Beginner level coding for R - science, statistics, and ecology

26 € /h

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! :)

Need help with math or science? As a 33-year-old civil engineer, I'm happy to help! I'll learn at your own pace, using plenty of examples to illustrate the material. I have years of experience teaching both simple and complex subjects.

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!

As an engineer, I would like to help other students navigate the sometimes complex world of mathematics and physics. During my studies, I tutored for 6 years in secondary schools in the region of The Hague, Delft, Rotterdam and Antwerp. I try to go through the course material interactively with the student and link theoretical concepts as much as possible to examples from our daily lives in order to prepare and motivate the student.

So if you would like tutoring on one or more subjects in mathematics or physics, you can contact me.

I tutor students from primary and secondary education to higher education. From multiplication tables to quadratic equations, logarithmic and exponential functions, limits, derivatives, integrals,... Everything is possible!

I am an interactive teacher of 5 years experience. My way of teaching is friendly and open, but clear and direct. I use lots of materials and interactive simulations and conceptual learning where possible. My abilities in education are incredibly strong and getting better every time I tutor. Given the previous situation with Covid. Online teaching has become second nature and I am happy to help your learn online as well.

Teaching methodology:
In order to teach a student effectively, it cannot simply be a matter of taking notes or going over the same material again and again. Students need time to connect concepts by approaching subjects from many angles. It takes practice and skill to make learning in a classroom interesting. I have been developing those skills over many years and continue to try and do so as I teach and learn myself!

Hey,

are you looking for someone to give your son/daughter extra explanation about the subject matter of primary school, 1st or 2nd grade secondary education? Then I'd be happy to help!

I am an enthusiastic 18-year-old who would love to assist your child in his/her studies. Thanks to my direction clil-latwetwisk6, I can teach many different subjects. This year I took an entrance exam and will start training in veterinary medicine. I am happy to help both online and at my home.

Feel free to send a message for more information!

Kind regards,

Need help with chemistry at school or in adult education (CEB, CE1D, CESI, or higher)? I offer clear, personalised support tailored to your level—whether you're a secondary student, an adult learner, or preparing for exams.

With a Master’s degree in Chemistry and real-world experience in the materials sector and at the Port of Antwerp (where I analysed chemical samples), I bring chemistry to life with practical insights and real examples. I also have classroom experience teaching in a secondary school in Antwerp, so I understand the curriculum and how to explain even the trickiest topics in a clear, approachable way.

Whether you're catching up, building confidence, or aiming for top results—I'll help you get there.

These Molecular Biology courses are aimed at bachelor's and master's levels and combine theoretical foundations with practical applications essential in modern life sciences. During the courses, we cover topics including:
The basic principles of molecular biology (DNA, RNA, genes, proteins, central dogma),
Differences between prokaryotic and eukaryotic systems,
DNA and RNA extraction methods (organic, inorganic, membrane-based),
Gel electrophoresis for analysis of DNA and RNA,
PCR and qPCR: principle, reagents, primer design, interpretation of results,
Applications in biotechnology, food safety, microbiology and gene expression

The lessons are structured and adapted to the student's level and goals. I explain complex concepts step by step and focus on comprehension, experimental thinking, and data interpretation, not just memorization. This type of support is ideal for:
University students who need extra support,
Exam preparation,
Thesis and research supervision,
Students who take courses in English and want to strengthen their content

Lessons can be given in English (and if necessary Dutch), online or by appointment.
