Biology/Science tutor. Oxford. BA Neuroscience, PhD student University of Oxford. Rates from £20/hour. Previous GCSE Biology tutoring experience
Methodology
I'm Lydia, I am currently studying for a DPhil in Obstetrics & Gynaecology. I have just finished my BA Neuroscience from the University of Oxford (2:1). I have A-levels in Biology, Chemistry, Physics and Maths (all A*) and an AS in Further Maths (A). I have 8 A*s at GCSE including sciences, maths and statistics.
I can give lessons in GCSE maths, biology, physics and chemistry. I can give A-level lessons in Biology.
I like to have a very practical/visual approach to teaching, with a focus on exam technique for those studying for specific exams. I am very happy to have a student led or tutor led lesson in which I can answer questions/explain specific topics or I can prepare a session. I like sessions to be fairly relaxed so students are happy to be open with their understanding. I am a very patient tutor and try to explain concepts in a variety of different ways.
Experience
I have tutored in GCSE Biology before, on both occasions candidates C/D borderline and received C and B. Both these students I taught for a few months with weekly sessions. I tutored these students whilst I was studying my A-levels. One of my tutees I would tutor on all aspects of science (for the GCSE double science GCSE).

Lydia is incredibly passionate about science! She is super friendly and great at explaining things. We met at university and have been friends for 3 years, studying the same degree.
Lydia is very friendly, approachable and extremely knowledgeable in her field. I would recommend Lydia as a tutor to anybody!
