I'm Sophie, I am 24 and I come from the Highlands of Scotland. I am an experienced tutor with three years experience on this platform alone with experience of tutoring privately and volunteering. I teach various subjects such as History, Biology, Human Biology, and English. I am extremely experienced in helping students build up their confidence and capability for their exams. I have personal experience with the SQA exam board but I have equal capability in teaching my subjects to other exam board standards and to students of any age and level. Outwith tutoring, I enjoy spending my time reading books, walking my two dogs and playing video games on my Xbox. Levels and Subjects: I teach National 4 and 5, Higher, Advanced Higher, GCSE and A-level for History, English Language and Literature...

BSc Biomedical Science graduate, currently in medical school. I teach: Junior Certificate science (all levels), Leaving Certificate Biology (all levels), GCSE Biology and AS/A-Level Biology. I am passionate about making science fun, practical and easy to understand. Throughout my career and studies, I've been immersed in the complexities of science, and I understand how daunting it can seem. But I believe that with the right guidance, anyone can grasp it. That's why I'm here - to break down complex topics into simple, understandable concepts, making it accessible and engaging for my students. My teaching strategy is focused on exam-based lessons, helping students practice with marking schemes and key terms to refine their answers and maximise their scores. By working through past paper questions and understanding what examiners look for, my students build confidence in applying their knowledge effectively under exam conditions. I am familiar with several exam boards including AQA, Edexcel, CIE, and many more, and I tailor my lessons to align with each board's specific requirements. A typical lesson with me involves reviewing key topics to ensure a solid understanding of the subject matter. We'll start by discussing the areas where the student feels least confident, addressing any questions or difficulties they have. I then guide them through relevant exam-style questions, focusing on how to structure their answers using marking schemes and key terms. Throughout the lesson, I offer feedback to help improve their exam technique, highlighting common mistakes and strategies for tackling tricky questions. My goal is to make sure students not only grasp the content but also feel more prepared for the types of questions they will face in their exams. In 2020, I graduated from the University of Essex (UK) with a degree in Biomedical Science (BSc), giving me a strong foundation in Life Sciences, including Biology. Prior to that, I took my Leaving Certificate in Biology, Chemistry and Physics (all higher level) in Franciscan College Gormanston, Ireland. For my Junior Certificate, I took science at higher level and achieved an A.

I am a 19 year old Mathematics and Computer Science student in my second year of study. In my free time I enjoy climbing both indoor and outdoor and doing programming projects. I am also a member of the Birmingham Wayfarers society (hiking). I have been tutoring for around 1 year now and have enjoyed giving other students the same opportunities which I had and used during my time in school. I am a 2nd year Mathematics and Computer Science student at the University of Birmingham with a predicted 1st graduation grade. For A levels I studied Maths, Computer Science, Economics (A*A*A), I also achieved an A* in my EPQ. In my GCSEs I achieved 8 grade 9s, 1 grade 8 and 1 grade 7.
