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

With 17 years of specialised experience in Biology, I focus on guiding IGCSE students through the subject's core concepts and real-world applications. Drawing from my background as an IBDP Coordinator and Extended Essay mentor, I craft lessons that align with the curriculum and address individual learning needs. I emphasise critical thinking, exam strategies, and long-term mastery of biological principles.

Tutoring Approach

My approach is tailored to IGCSE Biology, beginning with an assessment of the student's knowledge and goals. Lessons start with a review of previous material, ensuring continuity, followed by engaging, interactive instruction on new topics. Assignments assess understanding and progress, and I adapt delivery methods to suit the student’s style. Regular updates to parents ensure transparency and targeted improvement.

Testimonials

Mr. Kurun's guidance through IB Biology was invaluable, helping me improve both my understanding and grades.

I had several last minute sessions with Mr. Kurun. Despite the tight schedule, he quickly identified my weak areas and provided clear, concise explanations that made difficult topics easy to understand. His exam tips and focus on key concepts boosted my confidence and allowed me to go into the exam feeling well-prepared. I wouldn’t have managed without his guidance!
