préparation aux concours de réorientation de médecine ( SVT)
I'd like to start by greeting everyone who is reading this and then briefly discuss the teachings I'm providing. Going to medical school is a major step, and while becoming a doctor may have been a big dream of yours, things unfortunately didn't turn out the way you had hoped. You didn't receive what you eagerly want following your bac. I'm here to tell you that earning your bac is just the first step on a longer journey. You have another opportunity to fulfill your lifelong ambitions. What role do I play in this? as someone who has been in your position and ultimately obtained what I want. We will have a customized plan that fulfills your needs, we will correct any unsuccessful methods and build new ones, and I will lead you through the program at every stage.

Learn Hindi in an easy and interesting way with me
Hello I am Rizwana. I 'm from India.Hindi is my native Language. I also teach English, Urdu and Gujarati language. I have 7 years of experience in teaching.Teaching language is my passion but over the years I have experienced that more than passion it requires lot of patience and dedication. And every student has a different requirement. So I first try and understand the psychology, the strengths of my students and then I prepare the lesson plans accordingly.

Finanzas para niños: Aprende a gestionar tu dinero
Financial literacy is an important skill for kids to learn at an early age. I know many adults who would have loved learning about it earlier. They will learn about saving money, spending money wisely, and managing their finances. First, they will learn and think about how and why saving money: - short-term and long-term goals they can save for (e.g. a toy, a trip, college education). - how to create a budget and track their spending. - Compound interest and the impact of starting to save early. How to spend money wisely: - difference between needs and wants. - how to compare prices and make informed purchasing decisions. - learn what is impulse buying and method to take the time to think before spending. How to managing money: - Keeping track of spending and creating a budget - Different types of bank accounts, type of money and currencies - learn what are credits, how they work and how it can impact their finances in the future. This class is made for kids, so it'll include use games, puzzles, and interactive activities to help them understand the concepts while having fun.

KS1-3 Maths and/or GCSE Chemistry/Biology Tuition from an experienced tutor !
Hello, I’m Nisath, a dedicated tutor with 4 years of tutoring experience, particularly in teaching KS1-3. Throughout my tutoring journey, I’ve developed a teaching style that prioritizes making lessons proactive, interactive, and fully customized to meet each student’s unique learning needs. I believe that every student learns differently, and my approach is designed to adapt to their individual pace and style. Currently, I’m pursuing a degree in Chemistry, which has equipped me with a strong, comprehensive understanding of both GCSE Chemistry and Biology as well as KS1-3 Maths. I’m experienced in common exam boards, including Edexcel, AQA, which would allow me to tailor lessons specifically towards what students need to excel in their exams. I often conduct slightly longer tuition sessions, to provide a more holistic and thorough learning experience. This extended time frame allows us to explore topics in greater depth without feeling rushed, making room for a well-paced combination of concept explanation as well as exam practice with exercises and past questions. Ultimately, my goal as a tutor is to enhance your comprehension, improve your academic performance, and help you achieve the best possible results.

IB Biology SL tutoring for those in need of extra support with anything biology-related, whether it's to do with anatomy or plants!
I completed Biology HL in IB with a 6 overall. I am now studying it at the university level and am ready to help students struggling with IB Biology SL. I am familiar with the syllabus and can help students break down complex topics into simpler concepts that are easy to digest. We will begin with a lesson in order to get to know each other and see whether our goals align. We will discuss what exactly you need help with and make a weekly tutoring schedule. At the end of every class I expect students to let me know what they need help with next time or tell me 3 days before the next lesson at the latest. This ensures each class makes the most of our time together. At the beginning of the next lesson we will do a few practice questions to revise out previous class and continue with the next desired topic. I am looking for students who are open to receiving constructive criticism. I promise I will approach all of our lessons with patience, kindness, motivation and support!
