Hi! I teach English, Biology, and Chemistry. I like teaching things in chunks that are digestible and won't overwhelm you. My goal is to help you understand the subject, tackle questions and realise your own capabilities.

Growing up as eldest of my family, Im used to teaching my siblings in subjects they struggle in, such as Maths (aged 12-16) and Chemistry (aged 16-18). I also enjoy teaching friends and leading group study sessions, especially with concepts that are more difficult to grasp, like International Baccalaureate Biology or International Baccalaureate Chemistry.
I find that its easiest to help people understand a concept when they can visualise it. Whats Biology without diagrams? Simple words and a simple picture usually does the trick.
I also think that colour-coding is important. I am proud of the notes I share with friends, which are always colourful and appealing. Arranging information in this way helps the brain respond to it more effectively, which is particularly helpful in exams.
This approach certainly worked for me as my 35+ points on the International Baccalaureate is equivalent to 3 A*s at A Level and has launched me onto my degree at Imperial College London.
