Vetted Tutor

Personally Interviewed

Our tutors go through a rigorous selection process, having been interviewed to assess their teaching skills and subject knowledge. They have extensive tutoring experience with a track record of success, helping students achieve their academic goals.

Tutoring Experience

For more than ten years I have delivered tailored online tuition to students from five continents, designing syllabi that stretch gifted learners and rebuild shaky foundations alike. As an IB and IGCSE Biology examiner I translate mark-scheme subtleties into everyday language, and my analytics-driven progress reports keep families informed and motivated. Beyond exams I coach research projects, Olympiad preparation and personal statements, securing offers from top US universities including the Ivy League and UC system. My longest-running student has journeyed from Year 7 to medical school acceptance.

Tutoring Approach

My sessions are student-centred, marrying scaffolded explanations with Socratic questioning to foster real biological insight. I use interactive whiteboards, past-paper deconstruction and data-driven feedback loops so pupils see exactly how to climb from current grade to a 7. Emphasis on metacognition and timed drills builds confidence for high-stakes assessments, while admissions coaching covers essay crafting, résumé polish and interview rehearsal.
