Hi there! I’m Zuzanna, and I’m excited to be your tutor. I hold a degree in Microbiology and a Master’s in Immunology and Infectious Disease, and I currently work in a microbiology laboratory. I’m passionate about education, science, languages, and travel, and I bring that excitement and curiosity straight into my lessons. Levels & Subjects I Teach: GCSE: Science (Biology, Chemistry, Physics), English A-Level: Biology, English Exam Board Experience: AQA, Edexcel, OCR Languages: English – Native Polish – Fluent French – Conversational Preferred Student Age Group: PRIMARY, GCSE, A-Level I have extensive teaching and mentoring experience, including delivering A-Level practical endorsement sessions, mentoring Level 3 Laboratory Technicians, and supporting students as a career coach. I also work with students with ADHD, Autism and Dyslexia, adapting lessons to suit different learning styles and creating a calm, encouraging environment. My lessons are structured, interactive and firmly exam-focused, but never dry! I combine clear, engaging explanations with active recall, targeted past-paper practice and detailed mark scheme analysis so students understand exactly how to maximise marks. Challenging topics are broken down into simple, logical steps, using diagrams, quick quizzes and real-world examples to make learning memorable. At the same time, we refine exam technique, key terminology and answer structure to ensure strong performance under pressure. I hold a BSc (Hons) in Microbiology (2023) and an MSc in Infection and Immunity (2025) from the University of Liverpool. My MSc research focused on bacterial pathogenesis and host-pathogen interactions, while my BSc dissertation explored Pseudomonas aeruginosa biofilm adaptation, providing a strong foundation in practical science, analytical thinking, and problem-solving. Throughout my degrees, I worked as a career coach, developing skills in mentoring, communication, and confidence-building online and in-person, which I now apply directly in my tutoring. I attended Greenhead College (Huddersfield, UK, 2018–2020), completing A-Levels in Biology (A), Chemistry (C), and Geography (A). During this time, I began tutoring students in A-Level Biology, helping them strengthen their understanding and improve exam technique. I also support family and friends in GCSE Sciences and Maths (AQA and OCR), both in person and online, tailoring lessons to individual needs. My specialisations are science, particularly Biology, which I teach at GCSE and A-Level, and I am also competent in Chemistry and English. I have experience in practical lab skills, exam-focused tutoring, and supporting students with ADHD, Autism, and Dyslexia. I am currently completing a TEFL certificate to further strengthen my teaching practice in English. I have also mentored a Level 3 Laboratory Technician at BioGrad, delivering weekly guidance and coordinating with tutors, and led A-Level Science practical endorsement sessions, supervising small student groups. These roles strengthened my lesson planning, explanation of complex topics, and constructive feedback skills, all directly transferable to tutoring. I am confident these experiences equip me to help students achieve stronger grades, steady progress, and confidence in learning.
