About me

I am a UK-born and raised, biomedical science graduate currently living in Sweden. I teach the English language to learners of all levels, as well as science and mathematics for the UK's 13+, year 9 and GCSE exams. I am also able to help with the US SAT preparation. As a side project for my science students I created a fun "gruesome biology" lesson plan (focusing on viruses/bacteria/parasites) which has encouraged students to develop a greater interest in science. For the youngest of English language learners, I often use the Oxford Reading Tree syllabus to help them to get to grips with phonics and language proficiency! In the past I tutored English literature, mechanical mathematics, biology and physics to children between the ages of 11 and 16, raising their grades by a minimum of two levels from an average C to an A in most cases. I have also tutored children under 11 and provided mentoring for other students over 18. I believe with the right kind of teaching process, any student is capable of meeting and exceeding their learning expectations, therefore I aim to tailor my teaching methods to cater to individuals using study methods that work best on a case-by-case basis. Academically I hold two bachelor degrees, one in public relations (BA) which was accredited by the Institute of Public Relations in England, the second a bachelor of science in biomedicine (BSc), completed in Sweden. I also have a Masters of Science in Integrated Health Science (MSc). I am also a health and life coach, and available for this specific service. On the side, I have completed courses within the renewable energy sector including wind power, solar energy and impacts of climate change. In addition I took courses relating to behavioural change and motivation. I am also trained in dance with classical ballet my specialty. My methodology is to teach each student based on their own preferential learning styles. Humour, stimulating discussion and structured/sequential learning pathways are how I would best describe this! Book a lesson with me to see if I can help you with achieving your goals!
