Marine biologist offering biology, chemistry, physics, maths, and geography lessons online or in Edinburgh
Methodology
I believe teaching is most beneficial when it is tailored to the student. Everyone learns differently and it is my job as a teacher to ensure I change my style to match my students. I want my students to understand the concepts rather than just know how to answer questions in an exam.
With younger students I like to add games in to encourage learning i.e. bingo or odd one out for maths and hangman or wordsearches for spelling, etc.
Experience
Hello future tutees,
My name is Michelle and I am a recent graduate with a passion for helping others achieve their goals. I finished my masters (with distinction) in Marine Biology in September 2020 and have a first class undergraduate degree in Marine, Wildlife and Conservation Biology.
During my undergraduate degree I tutored fellow students in Maths, Chemistry, Biology and Ecology. I also worked as a teaching assistant and taught some specialist laboratory classes (marine sponge identification, etc). I have extensive teaching experience as a SCUBA diving instructor, having taught over 800 students from age 8-60+.
My personal experience is with the Scottish education system, however I am comfortable teaching the GCSE curriculum too.
I hope to see some of you soon,
Michelle
